In this case, it is enough to do something like:

Just add a license blurb to the document (header or footer, your choice). You
can reuse the blurb in the index of the FAQ or the Securing Debian Manual:

I've downgraded the user unstable chroot; testing and buildd unstable were
fine.

Given that gcc-4.0 -O3 also generate wrong code on i386, there is no
need for a m68k specific hack. Every package that use -O3 will have to
be rebuild on all plateform anyway when gcc has stabilized. On m68k, gcc
is just nice enough to do an ICE instead of random code generation.

That makes me feel a whole lot better :-)

Patch² : Maintaining a patch for a debian package

2005-09-16 Thread Sylvain Beucler
Hello,

I have a couple Debian packages that I need to patch with custom local
changes. The patches are small and I hence can follow the security
updates from the security team.

However, I wonder if there's already a way to automatically manage
such kind of packages. Ideally, when running aptitude (or a wrapper),
and if my patched package 'A' is updated, then the updated sources of
'A' would be downloaded, my custom patch applied, and then 'A' would
be automatically rebuild and installed. Of course, if there's a
conflict, the process would stop with an error.

Is this kind of auto-patching already implemented? Maybe apt-fu could
be used for that task, but it's apparently discontinued.

Any suggestions or best practices? :)

TIA,

-- 
Sylvain

possible problem with dlopen() and/or gcc 4

2005-09-16 Thread Federico Di Gregorio
Hi *,

sorry for bothering you all on this problem that is only slightly
debian-related (involves two of my packages) but I really need some help
here.

I am the current maintainer for ogre (libogre5 & other packages) and the
upstream for the PyOgre bindings (that I am also packaging). After the
big switch to gcc 4 PyOgre programs started to segfault and I had to
link ogre plugins into the PyOgre Python module (_ogre.so) _explicitly_
to make the segfault disappear.

Let me explain a little better: ogre provides various rendering backend
and on Debian we use the OpenGL one, located in shared object in

/usr/lib/OGRE/RenderSystem_GL.so

The render system is loaded at runtime (dlopen()) by the main ogre
library (libOgreMain.so.5) and for normal C++ program all goes well. The
Python module is usually linked with libOgreMain.so.5 only (as the C
programs are) to produce a shared object that is dlopen()ed by Python
(_ogre.so). 

Now, the extact segfault location depends on the Python script and on
the exact versions of the ogre libraries (and compile options and so on)
but it always happens inside the render system shared module (i.e.,
inside RenderSystem_GL.so). If _ogre.so is explicitly liked against
RenderSystem_GL.so the segfault disappears.

I double checked all the involved libraries and it seems that they are
all linked with libstdc++.so.6 so it does not seem to be a library
conflict (gcc 3.3 vs gcc 4.0).

My wildest guess is that a dlopen() from a dlopen()ed shared object can
do something bad but I can't find any reference to similar problems.

Ideas?

federico

Debian packages of MaxDB 7.6 in experimental - Call for testers

2005-09-16 Thread Martin Kittel

Hi,

Debian packages of the 7.6.00 release series of the MaxDB database 
system are now available in the experimental distribution. Next to the 
source package, there are binary packages for i386 and ia64 available.


While you can have both the maxdb-server-7.5.00 and maxdb-server-7.6.00 
package installed alongside each other, the packages from the 7.6.00 
release series will replace most of the packages that are now provided 
by packages built from the maxdb-7.5.00 source package. Therefore it is 
important to have the new 7.6.00 packages well tested before making them 
available in unstable to avoid unpleasant surprises.


My intention is to keep the new maxdb-7.6.00 packages in experimental 
for at least a month (for the most part of that time I will be on 
vacation and unavailable anyway) and if necessary do another upload to 
experimental after that time. If no major problems have been discovered 
until then I will prepare a new upload that will then go directly to 
unstable.


Please take the time and have a go with the packages on a test machine, 
especially if you are already using packages from the 7.5.00 release 
series. Of course, I am most interested in any problems you encounter 
when having the 7.5.00 packages already installed.


Thanks for your help and good luck with the packages,

Martin.

How can I build a package from source that require the source of another (library) package?

2005-09-16 Thread Tomas Fasth
Hello fellow developers, I have a problem on which I need advice.

Pathan is a library that implements XPath functionality in c++. It
is available both as a separate tarball as well as bundled with the
Berkeley DB XML sources provided by Sleepycat Software. The pathan
build script require a path to the xerces source code tree. I have
tried to find a way to build the pathan library without providing
the xerces source but failed.

Is there anything I can do to work around this source dependency?

I can always give up the idea of an independent build of the pathan
library and ship it as part of dbxml where the source include both
pathan and xerces (and berkeley db, and xquery; in the same source,
sic; talk about bloat).

Any advice is welcome.

Can you intead build-depend on libxerces26-dev and give it the path
to the headers that package installs?
