Re: [Slackbuilds-users] Updates - 20170326.1

[David Spencer]

Ok, I'm going to explain some of the small fixes we just made, but you
are welcome to delete this email if you're not interested.



* Make .desktop validate

freedesktop.org has standards for .desktop files and a validator. We
have run the validator on all the .desktop files in our repository and
fixed the problems it reported.

* Allow VERSION override

It should be possible to try to run the SlackBuild script with a
different version, for example 'VERSION=1.2.3 ./script.SlackBuild'
But some really old scripts had never been updated to support this
properly, so we finally got round to fixing them.

* i486=>i586

We are slowly changing to build with Slackware 14.2's i586 flags, but it
is not a high priority, so normally we just do this whenever we are
changing the script for some other reason.

* Remove template comments

We like to have comments for anything unusual in a script, but the
comments in the templates are really just to explain how things work the
first time you create a script. Otherwise they are just unhelpful noise.

* Fix shebang

SlackBuild scripts normally start with '#!/bin/sh'.
Don't use '#!/bin/bash' unless the script really needs to be bash
(this is almost never necessary).
Don't use '#!/bin/sh -e', because '-e' won't work when the script is
invoked with 'sh ./script.SlackBuild' or 'bash ./script.SlackBuild'

* Fix slack-desc
* Fix .info

We have removed unnecessary whitespace in the slack-desc and .info
files, because occasionally this can cause problems for automated tools.
Also we have made sure that all the slack-desc files have the same
formatting comments at the beginning, because there are people who can't
count to 11 and don't understand how to use the handy-ruler :(

* TAG and PRGNAM

We've made sure that these variables are defined consistently in all the
scripts.



So that's what we have done and why we have done it.  We hope these
small fixes will make everybody's life easier, or at least, more
predictable :)

Thanks for reading this, and thanks again to B "Urchlay" Watson for the
hard work preparing 900 individual commits.
-D.

[Slackbuilds-users] Updates - 20170326.1

[David Spencer]

Hello again everybody!

Here is the second public update that we promised you yesterday. In this
update there are 912 commits. A few of them are normal updates and
fixes, but the majority of them are small tidy-ups and fixes to scripts
that were prepared by B Watson. Thanks to him for the hard work. It is
always possible that we have broken something, so please let us know if
you find any problems, and you should blame me, not him, because I
reviewed them ;)

I will write a follow-up email describing the tidy-ups we have done and
the reasons for them.

Maintainers, please be sure to get these new versions from our
repository before you send us your updates.

_vendor directory here contains embedded third party libraries which are
meant for internal use by setuptools only, likely because it requires
exact versions of those libraries.  There's no guarantee that those
embedded libraries will even be there for newer setuptools versions.
It's really not a good idea to use them by anything else other than
setuptools.

Vendoring third party code is not unusual, another well known project
that does this is python-requests.

Hi Ryan 

 

Thanks for your great contribution to SBo. I'll take the following 

builds, if they are still available and no one else is intersted: 

 

 misc/zyGrib 

 libraries/libnova 






Both yours!



And now we are down to 41!

I tested plaso without installing pyparsing.  It builds, but fails it's
utils/check_dependencies.  It will pass the dep check if I create a symlink
to pyparsing, but it is an older version (see below).

As the maintainer, I'd prefer to keep the pyparsing slackbuild separate
rather than trying to install a symlink to an older version.
