This won’t help, unfortunately, as you would still get cyclic dependency on
shared libs.
so there is a limitation in depdendencies actually.. a big issue, let's
see if withhout harfbuzz everything works.
I hate this king od packages, it isnot the only one :(
This would be a reason to "Build" always in a very small chroot. If we
had a way to install (or make visibile) only the tree of the
dependencies actually listed in the package, so configure scripts could
not "pick up" anything by change
Luckily there is --without-harfbuzz, which I quickly added and commited.
That seems to be the right action for now.
Riccardo, would you mind having a look at harfbuzz and if the issue with
the cyclic dependency cannot be solved remove the dependency from freetype
to harfbuzz again? This is a bit pressing as the current catalog on the
mirrors is broken.
I hope I fixed the receipe. However I cannot check the packages, all the
dependencies seem wrong, I get overrides suggested for things which are there.
Strangely, only on 10, on 9 not...
Could the broken catalog cause that? What can we do?
I commited everything if you need to try.
I’ll have a look and push the fixed packages.
I actually noticed the issue also with other packages, where there are a
lot of errors by just rebuilding.
I hope the breakage is not too big!
PS: could I have noticed this somehow? checks and upload went fine?
I am not sure. I could have noticed by having a better look at the cron logs.
I think It might have been broken since quite a while? I was about to
ask you right today why
https://www.opencsw.org/get-it/packages/
still lists old packages, while I uploaded several new days ago.
