Re: [gentoo-dev] meaning of sqlite/sqlite3 use flag

 Does anything need the sqlite2 support in QT?
 

 Not explicitly.  Qt can also build against an internal version of sqlite2, so 
 it
 shouldn't be too big of a problem to remove this particular dep (but that 
 doesn't
 get rid of the flag issue, I suppose).

So let's use the internal sqlite2 library and just use the sqlite USE
flag. Since it won't really affect depends that way. It'll basically be
sqlite support...

 I noticed that the sqlite/sqlite3-useflags have no consistent meaning in
 the tree.

 E.g.
 - apr-util uses sqlite for sqlite-2.x support and sqlite3 for sqlite-3.x
 support
 - eix uses sqlite for sqlite-3.x support
 Just the first examples I found, you can find countless for both of them in
 the tree.

 We should imho decide if
 a) sqlite means sqlite-2.x and sqlite3 means sqlite-3.x.
 b) sqlite means enable sqlite-support always and sqlite+sqlite3 means if
 both are available use sqlite-3.x instead of 2.x.

 I don't care which one (or a completely different one), but I think it
 should be made clear. At least I think the current behaviour in the tree
 doesn't really make sense.
 

 how about 'sqlite' means you want sqlite irregardless of version ... then 
 sqlite-2 either gets punted from apr-util or it gets a local USE 
 flag 'sqlite-old' for older cruft
 -mike
   
I agree with this. I'd take this a step further, using old cruft isn't a
choice anymore. If an app supports sqlite2 and sqlite3, we'll have a
USE=sqlite that'll enable sqlite3... sqlite2 just isn't an option
anymore. The conversion process is very simple...

Step 1) mv mydatabase.db mydatabase.db-old
Step 2) sqlite mydatabase.db-old .dump | sqlite3 mydatabase.db
Step 3) Profit!

I'm willing to start making this change asap in the tree. Since sqlite2
and sqlite3 are SLOTED, people won't lose their sqlite2 binary and will
be able to make the conversion. I'll even add an ewarn for people to
make sure to update their databases to sqlite3.

Also, qt already uses it's own internal sqlite2 library and doesn't use
the system library so that won't be a problem.

[gentoo-dev] heads up: autotools.eclass and invalid autoconf depend atoms

2007-09-18 Thread Mike Frysinger
while adding support to autotools.eclass for WANT_AUTOCONF=none, i noticed we 
didnt have a fallback for invalid WANT_AUTOCONF values so i added one ... 
what i didnt realize is that apparently there are ebuilds in the tree which 
actually got this wrong (erp!)

so if you get a dependency error it's because the ebuild in question is 
setting the wrong value for WANT_AUTOCONF ... valid values are:
none, 2.1, 2.5, latest

if your ebuild is doing like 2.58 or 2.59 or 2.60 or something, then you 
should just delete the line and let the default value from autotools.eclass 
take care of things

 how do people feel about responses ?  keep them all on gentoo-dev or start a 
 new list just for reviews ?

IMHO this list is a good place for the responses, so that
every dev can learn from them.  Don't keep them in private

Thanks a lot for reviewing!
