--- Robert Bihlmeyer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> a �crit : > I now have a hopefully clean patch for the apt-cdrom/umount issue. It
Yes, that's good for all except for me. I wasted my whole weekend making a patch for apt, thinking that nobody was working on this thing. I figured out that if nobody aswered my email asking for someone working on apt's patch, then I might work alone on this. > is now <URL:http://pluto.tuwien.ac.at/~robbe/debian/hurd/> Also Yes, I saw it. The patch I did is more simple (sorry, I can't send it as an attachment due to an unknown reason): cut here: --------------------------------------------------------------------- --- /gnu/home/src/apt/apt/apt-pkg/init.cc Sun Jul 15 14:54:37 2001 +++ init.cc Sun Jul 15 21:00:31 2001 @@ -68,13 +68,6 @@ Cnf.Set("Dir::Etc::preferences","preferences"); Cnf.Set("Dir::Bin::methods","/usr/lib/apt/methods"); - // Mount / Umount operations for Hurd - #ifdef __GNU__ - Cnf.Set("Acquire::cdrom::/cdrom/",""); - Cnf.Set("Acquire::cdrom::/cdrom/::Mount","settrans -a /cdrom /hurd/isofs /dev/cdrom"); - Cnf.Set("Acquire::cdrom::/cdrom/::UMount","settrans -fag /cdrom"); - #endif - bool Res = true; // Read an alternate config file --------------------------------------------------------------------- cut here: In order to use this patch, you must apply to init.cc, compile, copy binaries from apt/bin to /bin, and copy libraries: cp libapt-pkg-libc6.2-NEEDED /lib/libapt-pkg-libc6.2-2.10.0.so.3.1 > available there are patched source and binary packages.
