Re: [fricas-devel] Fwd: [fricas/fricas] debian packaging (#2)

2020-01-08 Thread oldk1331
I recently compiled fricas with ecl-16.1.3 and ecl-git-HEAD
(ecl is about to release a new version), both are fine.

Still, compiling fricas with ecl consumes much more time compared with sbcl
and the resulting binary will run slower.

But "configure script errors out" on both ecl and sbcl is strange,
can you post the config.log?

[fricas-devel] update of config.gues and config.sub for inclusion of FriCAS in Debian

2020-01-08 Thread Ralf Hemmecke
Hi Waldek,

The patch

https://github.com/hemmecke/fricas/commit/4b371b0dd5129157a9061cac0f529b340b70.patch

updates config.guess and config.sub.

I've just downloaded the respective files.

https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_node/config_002eguess.html

$ wget -O config.guess
'https://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.guess;hb=HEAD'
$ wget -O config.sub
'https://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.sub;hb=HEAD'

Can I commit or do you see problems? It builds on my machine.

Ralf

Re: [fricas-devel] FriCAS sourceforge download

You cannot remove the .deb package? Or upload a 1.3.5.deb package?

Yes. Hovering over the "Dowload" button

shows

https://sourceforge.net/projects/fricas/files/latest/download

It's the same when I right-click and do "copy-link-location".

HOWEVER, clicking on the Download button downloads
fricas-1.0.1-1_amd64.deb. VERY STRANGE!!!

Well, OK. Leave it. But then maybe there should be prebuilt debian
packages. Obviously, now something is progressing at the fricas github site.

https://github.com/fricas/fricas/issues/2

But that would be built with ecl. I guess Kurt Pagani can help us with
providing a fricas debian package built on sbcl.

Well, that is sourceforge weirdness.  And that is why I put direct
links on downolad page.  FYI, when I go to sourceforge "Download"
button points to 1.3.5 (source package).

I am not sure if I can and if I should assuming that I can.
In the past sourceforge had policy about non-removability of
past releases.  Such policy has a point: people should be able
to go back to repository and fetch whatever obsolete version
they wish (say to reproduce results published in the past).

I heard that sourceforge now allows removal, but did not check
if it works (especially on old files).  And IMO arguments for
non-removal are rather strong.

[fricas-devel] FriCAS sourceforge download

2020-01-08 Thread Ralf Hemmecke
Hi,

I usually don't go to https://sourceforge.net/projects/fricas .
That is too much useless information (ads etc.) for my eyes.

But there is one big green button "Download" that still gives
fricas-1.0.1-1_amd64.deb .
One first has to figure out that 1.0.1 is not the latest version by
clicking on the "Files" tab below the Download button. :-(
Then another click on "fricas" and "1.3.5" to find the actual files.

Waldek, can you at least remove the very old 1.0.1 debian package?

Thanks,
Ralf
