Hi there,

I started to do a package info for streamdvd. The info file is attached. During this, several questions arised.


First question

Is the attached info file the right way to do it? It works here, but as it is my first package for fink and I'm not familiar with it, I'm not sure with for example the CompileScript key and the use of enviroment variables.


Second question

Fink always looks for the source at the mirrors first. In case of a new package, this is quite anoying, as it fails. Is there a way around this?


Third question

Is it the task of a package maintainer to do cosmetic corrections for compiling? streamdvd for example spits out some warnings about assignments etc.


Fourth question

I get linker warnings like

ld: warning prebinding not disabled because (__PAGEZERO segment (address = 0x0 size = 0x1000) of streamdvd overlaps with __TEXT segment (address = 0x0 size = 0x15000) of /sw/lib/libdvdread.3.dylib

Never saw this stuff under Linux up till now. What does it mean? Is there something to take in account when linking under fink?


Enough for now :o) Hope someone can help.

jps
