Updated Package: Whois 4.6.6

2003-07-11 Thread Mark Bradshaw
I've got new whois 4.6.6 packages ready for upload.  They are built against
1.5.0, so I guess they need to be set as Test packages.  The URL is:

RE: Updated Package: Whois 4.6.6

2003-07-11 Thread Mark Bradshaw
I haven't changed the hint file in forever.   I didn't think maintainers
needed to after the first release.  I just assumed christopher or corrinna
did that in the main copy for updates.

I don't think I'll need to worry about compiling 4.6.6 against 1.3.22.  The
upgrade isn't anything magical, so no one will suffer if they stick with
1.3.x and the old whois.

 Mark,

 You'll need to set the packages up as test packages yourself, in your
 setup.hint.  You could probably do it by simply adding the

 prev: 4.5.15-1
 curr: 4.5.17-1
 test: 4.6.6-1

 lines to your setup.hint, but I may have missed something.
 Also, it looks like you're using this as an opportunity to upgrade the
 package to a new upstream release, as well.  You may want to first release
 the new version compiled against 1.3.22, and then release 4.6.6-2 compiled
 against 1.5.0.  Again, it's your choice as the maintainer.

Fw: Detecting NetworkSimplicity in setup.exe

2002-11-19 Thread Mark Bradshaw
 Maybe some of it would.  I think the problem is that the cygwin installer
 assumes that you actually know about cygwin and want to install it.  I
think
 there's a lot of windows folks who hear about ssh/openssh and want it, but
 don't know about or want the cygwin environment.  They just want to push
 next a few times and have an openssh server, never mind this bash stuff.
 I'm not sure you can really fix the cygwin installer, since it's not
 broken.  It's just too general for the task.

 As I've told Rob I've about reached the end of my interest in doing a
 separate package.  In fact that's been the case for a while, but I'm not
 sure I have any good input on how to handle this problem in another fashion
 other than a separate install process.  I'd certainly be willing to help if
 someone has a suggestion.

 It's out of date, as far as I can see (now even simpler), and not
 wonderfully easy to find.

 If it was up to date, and easy to find, then I think it *would* have fixed
 the problem.

He's probably in the same boat I am.  Not enough time.  Corinna would be the
ideal person to handle this, being the closest person to it, but I don't

 If it doesn't build OOTB then the place to put your patch is in

   Looks OK Mark. Does it build OOTB? I ask because the source 
   archive has
   no CYGWIN_PATCHES directory in it.
   
   If it doesn't build OOTB then the place to put your patch is in
   CYGWIN_PATCHES/ in the src archive, along with a README 
 about what's
   needed to recreate the binary package (for folk building custom
   versions - i.e. with different configure switches.
   
   Once that's answered/corrected, then I'll uplaod for you.
   
   As a side note... you might be interested in utilising one 
  of Chuck's
   scripts for the packaging process - grab the source tarball 
  for nearly
   any of his packages, or the src tarball for libxsl (which has 
   a script I
   customised from Chucks), and a lot of the mechanics can 
 be automated
   easily.

Fixed.  I'm not sure how the cygwin readme in the source package is supposed
to be named/located.  I just dropped it in there.

  Didn't even notice the typo.
 
  FWIW, this gets my vote.
 
 It is not stripped:

 The Cygwin Readme isn't included in the source package:
 ===
 $ ls whois-4.5.15-1/
 Makefile as_del_list  ip_del_listpo/  
whois.1
 Makefile.am  config.h make_as_del.pl*test-whois.pl*

 whois-4.5.15.patch  whois.spec
 
 
 Besides these LITTLE issues I vote pro;)

RE: whois package

2001-12-07 Thread Mark Bradshaw

Going back to dig and host, I'm guessing that the maintainer would need to
actually be a maintainer for the whole bind package?  Am I right in assuming
that having bind as a cygwin package would provide libresolv functionality,
or would more be required.

BTW, I can get bind 9.2 to compile with some modification

Mark

 Yes I'm interested;)
 
 Which whois do you want to maintain?
 http://www.gnu.org/gnulist/production/jwhois.html
 http://www.gnu.org/gnulist/production/whois.html
 
 And dig and host are from the bind package?
 There are no resolv functions in cygwin, so libresolv or 
 libbind is needed too,
 will you maintain that too?
