Fixing Intel Stuff

drm asked me to work on Intel packages:

  • gnupg-idea: updated to 1.4.2.2 in my exp
  • xaos
  • cm3-dev: no way in hell, somehow needs to be cross-compiled?
  • ghc
  • gpc
  • icon
  • ocaml
  • gc-static: we should just remove this from fink
  • libdvdnav2: fixed in stable (unstable already had a fix)
  • emboss
  • root4
  • singular
  • libsndfile1: new version 1.0.15 in my exp; turns out it was missing BuildDeps anyways  :)
  • sane-backends: sane's a little hinky build-wise, I've updated it to 1.0.17
    1. fix the libtool bits so the -framework bits end up back in dependency_libs in the .la
    2. get testers to try it out with their scanners

Packages to Update/Upgrade

kpod

  • port it!

gnupg

spacehulk

  • try to get it to work with qt/mac

tomcat4 and tomcat5

  • these desperately need updating/creating. do it!

amarok

  • 1.4-beta2 has a bunch of deps I want to make sure are enabled (add --with-libgpod --with-mp4v2 --with-mp4v2-dir=%p for what I've got so far)
    • xine 1.0 (they really want >= 1.0-rc4, but hooooo boy is that a can o' worms)
    • taglib >= 1.4.0
    • ruby >= 1.8
    • GStreamer >= 0.10 (and gst-plugins-0.10 to make sure that they have sdlaudiooutput)
    • akode I think I'll punt this, it means getting kdemultimedia3 working
    • NMM not gonna happen, no OSX driver
    • MAS last I checked no OSX driver either (investigate?)
    • Helix does this work on OSX? (not without a lot of work)
    • SQLite3 >= 3.0
    • MySQL (should I try to make a separate package that builds the mysql plugin?)
    • PostgreSQL (same for PostgreSQL)
    • xmms
    • libvisual 0.2.0 doesn't work right on osx, 0.4.0 is out but API has changed
    • tunepimp needs libtunepimp3
    • libgpod got it ported, need to package
    • exscalibar probably not gonna happen, twisty maze of dependencies, all crazy
    • mp4v2 needs libmp4v2-dev from faad2

Other People's Stuff

  • neon25 Christian Schaffner mailed, 03/23
  • fontconfig2-dev: Alexander Strange said it was OK to mess with
  • faac: ask vasi about putting it in the 10.3 tree for gstreamer
    • I'll be updating it for Intel sometime next week, Daniel Johnson provided patches. Wait for that update, then go ahead and backport.
  • xvidcore: while messing with mplayer, I noticed xvidcore had a new upstream version; I've got an update in my exp, need to mail Ben Hines about it

buildworld breakage

Probable diagnosis and solution of problems leading to breakage observed in buildworld (see that page for actual build transcripts):

  • mx4j: Depends:jython; jython exists in 10.3/10.4T but not 10.4 (it's py22). mx4j nuked from 10.4 in CVS, but need to solve this in SVN so it doesn't reappear.
  • gtk-sharp, gtk-sharp2: missing BuildDepends:pango1-xft2-dev or adjustment of PKG_CONFIG_PATH to locate pango1-xft2-ft219-dev
  • kio-kmd: bad things happen. There's a major problem with the kdeadmin helper script also: if the /tmp/buildlog cannot be created (permissions problems), the build process doesn't abort when an error occues
