[Fink-devel] new bindist coming
I'll start making the next binary distribution 48 hours from now, i.e., shortly after midnight GMT on April 1. If you have well-tested packages which should be moved to the stable tree before the bindist, please move them now. (But please don't rush into moving things -- make sure that all of the dependencies are present and so on.) All packages in the stable tree must have an MD5 sum for this release. Packages which are missing dependencies might be removed from the stable tree during the course of building the bindist. -- Dave --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: The Definitive IT and Networking Event.

The reason we have these depends is so that every person gets exactly the same package, and so that _fink_ has control of all the packages it needs. Without this control, many things break as you upgrade or clean old programs that you think you no longer need. also if is possible to install a program/lib anywhere, and fink would have no idea where to look. We dont provide a placeholder package unless it supplies *everything* needed, and then usually only if it comes with the system -chris zubrzycki - -- PGP public key: http://homepage.mac.com/beren/publickey.txt ID: 0xA2ABC070 Fingerprint: 26B0 BA6B A409 FA83 42B3 1688 FBF9 8232 A2AB C070 "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." -- Albert Einstein --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: The Definitive IT and Networking Event.

Otherwise, there is not much point (IMHO) in posting to the SF.net news system, since http://fink.sourceforge.net is Interestingly, the sf.net docs say 'post news more often, you will get on the front page more', which is strange, but whatever. :) That rule is only a rule of the thumb, and only true if you assume that they pick news for the front page randomly from the pool of all news items. Whenever they update the front page news, they only take news from that day (or at most the day before). Of course that means, the more often you release, the more likely you are to hit a "front page news" day, with a chance of getting to the front. Furthermore, the more "interesting" news are, the more likely they are too be picked. But in reality, this is differently. Contrary to what one might think, it's usually that they first pick a date, and then on that date pick news. In my impression it's more the opposite, they see "interesting" news and then post them. For SF.net, Fink is one of the "interesting" projects, they watch us closely (together with various other projects; I mean, just check out the list of the "projects of the month" to get an idea :-). Just count how many of our SF.net news in the last year were on the front page (hint: a lot), compute the percentage, and then compare that with any other project :-) Max
Re: [Fink-devel] XHTML DTDs, SGML catalogs and freetype2
Am Freitag, 28.03.03 um 23:20 Uhr schrieb Damien Pollet: Hi, So first I posted a package for the XHTML DTDs (to use with emacs psgml as far as I'm concerned). Though these are XML DTDs, I register them to /sw/etc/sgml/catalog.d too since psgml doesn't see to use the XML catalog in /sw/etc/xml. I didn't look at this very much though. Hum, that would be a bug in psgml then, though. Are XML DTDs compatible with SGML DTDs ? I.e. is this even legal? Then to Max : I think we've misunderstood this afternoon on irc :) You've added /sw/etc/profile.d/libxml2-bin.sh but if I undestood well they should export SGML_CATALOG_FILES='/sw/etc/sgml/catalog' instead of SGML_CATALOG_FILES='/sw/share/sgml/catalog'. AFAIK /sw/etc/sgml/catalog is the general catalog, which is generated from the files in /sw/etc/sgml/catalog.d/ (and I have no /sw/etc/sgml/catalog :). Not really a misunderstanding, just a bad case of a copy&paste bug =). FIxed it. Max --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: The Definitive IT and Networking Event. Be There!
