dpkg-buildpackage

1998-02-25 Thread Jens Christian Lisner
Hi!

I've got a problem with building Packages with dpkg-builpackage. I
thought it should be possible to rebuild Packages from their sources who
were extracted from *.orig.tar.gz with dpkg-source -x. But instead 
dpkg returned

vampira:[xldlas-0.85] # dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc
no utmp entry available, using value of LOGNAME (jenne) at
/usr/lib/dpkg/controllib.pl line 16.

/usr/lib/dpkg/controllib.pl line 16.
parsechangelog/debian: error: unable to open substvars file
debian/substvars: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
dpkg-buildpackage: unable to determine source package

What is debian/substvars, and why is it not there?
My intention was to rebuild the package after modifying the sources.

question about wget and proxies

1998-02-06 Thread Jens Christian Lisner
I tried to downloed some files with wget ftp. wget is always responsing
No route to host. I'm stuck behind a firewall of my provider. http
download works fine, and ftp proxy vars are set like the http proxy
vars. Any Idea?

btw. is their a ftp-client package with proxy support? Is it possible to
chat over a firewall? (tf is able to do such thing!) 

And why does netscape-3.01 gunzip all .gz and .tgz files???
(Not fair if you download a orig.tar.gz file!)

Re: xemacs20 wd buffer too small??

 i no longer have this problem.  a kind soul on #debian helped diagnose

 in my case, xemacs was trying to use libc5 libraries --
 the fix was to change the order of directories in /etc/ld.so.conf --
 /usr/X11R6/lib came after two libc5-compat directories, so i put it before
 them.  (is this recommended?)
 
 xemacs was able to find the appropriate libc6 versions of libraries
 (verified w/ ldd), and things seem to be working fine now.
 

I've checked this out, but in my /etc/ld.so.conf libc5-compat comes
after all other libs. I think XEmacs is able to find the right libs:

vampira:[bin] # ldd xemacs
libXaw.so.6 = /usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw.so.6 (0x4000f000)
libXpm.so.4 = /usr/X11R6/lib/libXpm.so.4 (0x40047000)
libcompface.so.1 = /usr/lib/libcompface.so.1 (0x40055000)
libjpeg.so.6a = /usr/lib/libjpeg.so.6a (0x4006)
libpng.so.0 = /usr/lib/libpng.so.0 (0x4007f000)
libXmu.so.6 = /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmu.so.6 (0x4009a000)
libXt.so.6 = /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6 (0x400ac000)
libSM.so.6 = /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6 (0x400f4000)
libICE.so.6 = /usr/X11R6/lib/libICE.so.6 (0x400fd000)
libXext.so.6 = /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6 (0x40112000)
libX11.so.6 = /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x4011e000)
libncurses.so.3.4 = /lib/libncurses.so.3.4 (0x401c1000)
libgdbm.so.1 = /usr/lib/libgdbm.so.1 (0x40206000)
libdb.so.1 = /usr/lib/libdb.so.1 (0x4020c000)
libm.so.6 = /lib/libm.so.6 (0x4021b000)
libc.so.6 = /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40235000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 = /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x4000)
libc.so.5 = /lib/libc.so.5 (0x402d7000)
libz.so.1 = /usr/lib/libz.so.1 (0x40395000)

Please mail if this is wrong.

dpkg error message

1998-02-04 Thread Jens Christian Lisner
I want to recompile the ftape package for kernel-2.0.32.
I've made a 

dpkg-source -x  ftape_3.04d-1.dsc

dpkg-source: error: tarfile `./ftape_3.04d.orig.tar.gz' contains object
(ftape-3.04d/) not in expected directory (ftape-3.04d.orig)

What does this mean?

xemacs20 wd buffer too small??

1998-02-02 Thread Jens Christian Lisner
I've upgraded XEmacs from 19 to 20. When I try to start it, it returns

XEmacs: `getwd' failed: errno 0

The point is that it can only be started from root directory. I've read
in getwd(3), that this can happen if the buffer is too small.
What can I do?

strange symlinks

1998-01-19 Thread Jens Christian Lisner
After installing kernel-2.0.32 I've got two symlinks

/usr/src/linux - kernel-headers-2.0.32
/usr/src/linux-2.0.32 - kernel-headers-2.0.32

and in /usr/include:

linux - /usr/src/linux-2.0.32/include/linux
asm - /usr/src/linux-2.0.32/include/asm

The problem is that in /usr/include/linux there are only very few files,
and /usr/include/asm is empty! So several headers were not able to find
their files. These are in /usr/src/kernel-source-2.0.32...

Is it save to make the symlinks point to

/usr/src/linux - kernel-source-2.0.32
/usr/src/linux-2.0.32 - kernel-source-2.0.32

?
