[DebianGIS-dev] Bug#582273: geos: Please add debug symbols
Source: geos Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Version: 3.2.0-1 I ended up needing to debug an infinite loop issue in either geos or postgis on lenny, and noticed that neither provide debugging symbols. I ended up rebuilding both (and Postgresql itself for good measure) to create -dbg packages, and thought I might as well create proper patches and file bugs.. So here is the patch for geos. -- Arto Jantunen Index: control.in === --- control.in (revision 2881) +++ control.in (working copy) @@ -88,3 +88,15 @@ .

[DebianGIS-dev] postgis override disparity
There are disparities between your recently accepted upload and the override file for the following file(s): libpostgis-java_1.5.1-2_all.deb: package says section is science, override says java. Please note that a list of new sections were recently added to the archive: cli-mono, database, debug, fonts, gnu-r, gnustep, haskell, httpd, java, kernel, lisp, localization, ocaml, php, ruby, vcs, video, xfce, zope. At this time a script was used to reclassify packages into these sections. If this is the case, please only reply to this email if the new section is inappropriate, otherwise please update your package at the next upload. Either the package or the override file is incorrect. If you think the override is correct and the package wrong please fix the package so that this disparity is fixed in the next upload. If you feel the override is incorrect then please file a bug against ftp.debian.org and explain why. Please INCLUDE the list of packages as seen above, or we won't be able to deal with your request due to missing information. Please make sure that the subject of the bug you file follows the following format: Subject: override: BINARY1:section/priority, [...], BINARYX:section/priority Include the justification for the change in the body of the mail please.

[DebianGIS-dev] Bug#579989: Bug#579989: Bug#579989: Tries to dlopen libproj.so instead of libproj.so.0

The application can provide features depending on wether a certain library is available at run-time or not. There are certain use cases where this is required: Typically interpreter language modules are implemented like that (you can't build all possible combinations of perl/python/... + modules). Or "more general" application plugins are done like that. One also can use dlopen to update a running application (though this has its own problems and I don't know a real-world example for that one at the moment) Greetings, karme ___ Pkg-grass-devel mailing list Pkg-grass-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-grass-devel
