Re: The evil build methods of thy libev
Hi, > Due do this news and the massive inconvience of patching everything, I > am currently favoring the libev-source solution. Does it even work properly this way? Linux's biggest disadvantage compared to Windows is the lack of a standardized event loop that can be used by multiple modules in the same program (allowing a library to e.g. open a window and add a hook to the event loop to process window events). If multiple copies of libev are in the same process, will they communicate with each other? Simon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I thought this was a post-lenny thing anyway, but if there's only so few packages left, I'm tempted to not obstruct the removal of gnome-libs for digitaldj. Well I think it was originally supposed to be for Lenny, then it kind of died. But with so few packages left, I was asking if it was worth it to keep them in Lenny, hence why I mailed this list. I'm fine either way, I was just thinking it might be worth getting it out of Lenny.

Please get in touch with Debian OCaml maintainers (Cc-ed) to maintain
this package, possibly using a git repo under the hood of the
collaborative package maintenance. Also, please read the OCaml policy,
et al. :)
Thanks for your interest in packaging that!
Cheers.

Test suites after build and Build-Depends.
Dear all, I packaged a lot programs that have a test suite, and realised that, in order to run it after build, the dependancies of the binary package produced must be present as well. For the moment, I add them in Build-Depends(-Indep), but this is not satisfactory, because: - The build dependancy graph becomes unnecessarily complex when running the test suite is skipped. - Information is duplicated between Build-Depends: and the binary packages's Depends: field.

Fwd: Gnomesword, libsword, diatheke, sword modules, bibletime
This seems to apply to Debian too (apart from #3). Regards Jeff -- Forwarded message -- From: Refdoc Date: Jan 23, 2009 2:45am Subject: Gnomesword, libsword, diatheke, sword modules, bibletime To: ubuntu-m...@lists.ubuntu.com Hi, I am one of the developers at CrossWire. Several of our programmes are in your repository, but they are ancient, often 2 or more releases behind us. I have tried on several occasions to contact the maintainer listed but to little avail. I asked eventually on #ubuntu-devel and was advised to mail to you. As we see it, following is wrong: 1) libsword is at 1.5.11 - if you wait a couple of weeks probably at 1.5.12. You keep 1.5.9. 1.5.9 is nearly 2 years old. The functional increase is massive. 2) libsword should be compiled with ICU to allow it full function. It is not. 3) you should not maintain sword modules as all our programmes have a module manager which will download modules directly. Installing modules via apt-get renders the module manager non-functional as the modules are installed by apt-get into non user writable areas (/usr/share/sword instead of ~/.sword) 4) diatheke is a commandline utility which can if carefully handled also be used as a base for CGI script. The example CGI code coming along with it is not meant to be exposed to the internet - at least not in this form. Therefore the dependency on Apache is wrong. Most users will use diatheke only as commandline routine, never as CGI. 5) Gnomesword is ancient history. All bug reports you have on file for GS are sorted in upodated versions. Our last release was 2.4.1. we are currently moving towards the next release - a week or two. There is probably more to it, but to be honest for years now we direct everyone to our own debs as Ubuntu and Debian are so out of date. I would therefore extremely grateful if someone could take this one up or advise us how to go about submitting a new set of packages ourselves.
