I don't know who to contact, but it won't compile; after going through a lot, it gives a whole string of errors and then gives up; up until then, it seemed fine. /sw/include/png.h:952: error: parse error before `*' token /sw/include/png.h:953: error: parse error before `*' token

Re: [Fink-devel] Please fix postgresql post-install script.

2004-02-27 Thread David R. Morrison
The maintainer for postgresql is on vacation this week, so it may be a while before he responds. But let me suggest, since you seem to have analyzed the problem very nicely, that you might try to figure out how the fink package should be modified and provided a proposed new info file and/or new

[Fink-devel] MMTK build error

2004-02-27 Thread Koen van der Drift
Hi, The latest mmtk (mmtk-2.3.2-1) fails to build because netcdf is not in the dependencies list, I think it should be a BuildDepends. I am not sure if netcdf-shlibs and/or netcdf-bin are also needed. Could that be fixed in cvs? Thanks, - Koen.

[Fink-devel] binary release plans

2004-02-27 Thread David R. Morrison
I plan to start creating a binary release for 10.3 in about a week. If you are aware of any of your packages in the 10.3/stable tree which are *not* suitable for binary release, please either fix them or remove them from that tree. Thanks, Dave

Baba Yoshihiko has made progress on the internationalization of the Fink documentation and believes that the multilingual pages for the FAQ and Documentation sections can be brought online in March, with others to follow. I am therefore requesting a freeze on ALL changes to these sections

Re: [Fink-devel] binary release plans

2004-02-27 Thread David R. Morrison
Hi Remi. Sure, removing the dlcompat dependencies is one of the things which needs to be done. In some cases, this has already been done in the unstable tree, but not the stable tree. So it's a bit unclear whether one should create a new stable version, or move the current unstable version to

The xfree86-base package and friends are not in the 10.3 tree at all (which is how things will stay). In the 10.2-gcc3.3 tree, it seems we have version -16 in stable and version -18 in unstable. Does -18 fix the problem you mention? Should it be moved to stable? -- Dave From: Alexander K.

[Fink-devel] -pm560 before -pm581 in placeholder depends

2004-02-27 Thread Peter O'Gorman
Hi, I think I'm going to go through all the perlmods in stable and unstable 10.3 tonight (~13 hours from now) and ensure that they say 'Depends: foo-pm581 | foo-pm560' for the 10.3 tree. This is to ensure that apt does not needlessly install perl560-core. It will mean a whole bunch of revision

gnome-python and hence, gramps need to be removed from stable since they aren't compliant with the python policy. The versions in unstable; gramps, gnome-python2, pytgtk2-py23, pygtk2-py22 need to be moved to stable. I have good reports from gramps users which depends heavily on the pygtk and

[Fink-devel] Library prebinding

2004-02-27 Thread Daniel Johnson
I've been playing around with packages which don't currently build prebound libraries and found that in the majority of cases where libtool is used, calling libtool with -no-undefined will work--provided the dependencies are prebound, of course. This can usually be achieved by adding

[Fink-devel] moving stuff to the stable branch

Hi: I've gotten several requests to move a couple of my packages (eg: molmol, a molecular graphics display program) to the stable branch. Is this a decision I should make unilaterally (based on user feedback) or is there a more formalized procedure? Thanks for any advice in advance. Bill Scott
