Martin, if you could re-read slowly my post,
1 - I've said the package is not released yet, so I've provided a link to the snapshot, so that it could be tested locally (i.e. by putting it in /sw/src).
2 - I did not say I cannot test with gnome1, just a matter to install it, may make one day on the g3
David H. wrote:The package is well tested, I use it daily for Fink translation (xml), for my website (css and shtml), for po files (cssed), for sgml (for cssed too) sometimes within kde, sometimes with Apple's X11; sometimes with gnome2; and just to put a good mesure remotely too. More I built it regularly from cvs (every day or so), so this release could be considered as well tested.
I always thought this is a bad idea that invites to produce a lot of non-tested packages. Why not just make two clean info files?
Just that I've done that too quickly, this new info and patch files should work, at least it works on my machine.
OK, let's look at these arguments:
Because it is a matter of scalability. When you have a piece of software that supports many variants like
with ssl, without ssl, with blah, without blah. with x , without x and so on, a maintainer cannot be expected to take care of 3 separate files just to take care of one software piece.
It still has to be seen whether this is easier with the quite complicated syntax of the variants system. The examples we have seen so far are not encouraging. Michèle's example shows that for beginners at least it is not easier.
I've completely missed the names, but it was easy to find, what was not so easy was to find in which makefiles where all various icons installed. So now apparently, I can switch between bluefish, bluefish-gnome2 with no problem. Just remain the name of DocFiles directory which changes, I don't know if it matters.
bluefish.info
Description: Binary data
bluefish.patch
Description: Binary data
So, if you would be so kind to have a look at it now, with the link for the source:
<http://pkedu.fbt.eitn.wau.nl/~olivier/snapshots/bluefish-2004-04 -06.tar.bz2>
I would be very grateful.
