reopen 746003 tag 746003 + help quit Hello, I tried to compile gwave against g-wrap 1.9.14-2.1 [1] guile-gnome-platform 2.16.2-1.2 [2] I had to add a patch for gwave package [3] to update the used header. Now when I attempted to build gwave, I got stuck with the following build error: scwm_guile.c: In function 'scwm_handle_error': scwm_guile.c:332:30: error: 'scm_the_last_stack_fluid_var' undeclared (first use in this function) fl = SCM_VARIABLE_REF (scm_the_last_stack_fluid_var); Can someone help me with this issue please ? Thanks... [1] It has been in git (https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/g-wrap.git) since 8 months ago, yet Hideki Yamane forgot to upload for some reason, hopefully he will upload it soon.

I'm skeptical about uploading a major new upstream version when there's effectively no Debian maintainer for it. Assuming we do end up keeping Guile 1.8 in jessie (which we may, perhaps for lilypond, if nothing else), then I suppose we'll have to decide which is worse: leaving the existing unmaintained 1.8-based packages(s) alone, or making major upstream release NMUs, with no active maintainers to back them up. Of course the alternative is to just remove the relevant 1.8-based packages from Debian, which is what the Guile upstream has requested -- i.e. they'd prefer that when possible we just remove any packages from Debian that have Guile 2.0 support upstream, but not in Debian.

But in any case, the experimental g-wrap hasn't actually built everywhere, so someone still has to handle that first: https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=g-wrapsuite=experimental Afterward, and once we're sure the new g-wrap actually works correctly (or at least reasonably) with guile-2.0, we'll have to deal with the rdepends, i.e. guile-cairo and guile-gnome-platform. Both will have to be updated for 2.0, tested, and then migrate in tandem with the new g-wrap. Hence my feeling that we need active maintainers for whichever of these are to remain in Debian. I might considering helping with that eventually, but probably not in the short term. -- Rob Browning rlb @defaultvalue.org and @debian.org GPG as of 2011-07-10 E6A9 DA3C C9FD 1FF8 C676 D2C4 C0F0 39E9 ED1B 597A GPG as of 2002-11-03 14DD 432F AE39 534D B592 F9A0 25C8 D377 8C7E 73A4 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

But in any case, the experimental g-wrap hasn't actually built everywhere, so someone still has to handle that first: https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=g-wrapsuite=experimental Well, the other NMU that is in git has some fixes, it seems to be building on all archs that Ubuntu support: ppc64el, powerpc, amd64, i386, arm64, armhf Afterward, and once we're sure the new g-wrap actually works correctly (or at least reasonably) with guile-2.0, we'll have to deal with the rdepends, i.e. guile-cairo and guile-gnome-platform. Both will have to be updated for 2.0, tested, and then migrate in tandem with the new g-wrap. guile-cairo has been migrated to guile-2.0, but I don't see any g-wrap package in its deps nor build-deps. As for guile-gnome-platform, I have sync'ed it from Ubuntu (they had it migrated to Guile 2.0), and built it on an amd64 (against g-wrap revision that hasn't been uploaded yet). Hence my feeling that we need active maintainers for whichever of these are to remain in Debian. I might considering helping with that eventually, but probably not in the short term. Well, I am trying to help. I was hoping someone would help me with the gwave build problem that I've got. -- أحمد المحمودي (Ahmed El-Mahmoudy) Digital design engineer GPG KeyID: 0xEDDDA1B7 GPG Fingerprint: 8206 A196 2084 7E6D 0DF8 B176 BC19 6A94 EDDD A1B7 signature.asc Description: Digital signature
