[clc-devel] Email format in Pkgfile
by Daniel Mueller 04 Mar '05

04 Mar '05

Hi guys, I'm thinking of changing the email address in our Pkgfiles to a more 'web-friendly' format: Joe User (joe at mail dot net) >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> # $Id: Pkgfile,v 1.1 2004/10/11 20:38:08 jaeger Exp $ # Description: A general purpose cryptographic library based on GnuPG # URL: http://directory.fsf.org/security/libgcrypt.html # Maintainer: Matt Housh (jaeger at morpheus dot net) # Depends on: libgpg-error name=libgcrypt version=1.2.0 [..] <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< I've realized that a simple search query by google prints out our email addresses :-( I prefer spam[1] refrigerated. What do you guys think? bye, danm [1] http://www.spam.com/sp.htm -- Daniel Mueller Berlin, Germany (OpenPGP: 1024D/E4F4383A)

[clc-devel] ports in contrib depending on ports in unmaintained
by Jukka Heino 16 Feb '05

16 Feb '05

Hi, When building every single port in contrib I noticed that some of them depend on packages that either don't exist or are unmaintained. In my opinion contrib shouldn't depend on having unmaintained available. I usually even disable unmaintained completely on my systems so some ports in contrib fail because of this. - bmp depends on libglade (unmaintained) - electricsheep depends on xscreensaver (unmaintained) - gal depends on libgnomeprintui and libgnomeui (unmaintained) - madwifi depends on linux (doesn't exist) - nicotine depends on pygtk (unmaintained) - obconf depends on libglade and startup-notification (unmaintained) - ogle depends on libglade (unmaintained) - rox-clib depends on libgtop (unmaintained) - rox-lib depends on pygtk (unmaintained) - rss-glx depends on xscreensaver (unmaintained) - spamassassin depends on p5-html-parser (doesn't exist) - xautolock depends on xfree86 (should be x11) - xblast depends on xfree86 (should be x11) - xsoldier depends on xfree86 (should be x11) So in my opinion maintained ports shouldn't depend on unmaintained or non-existant ports. The current situation is of course understandable, since most of the GNOME stuff isn't maintained anymore. But in general I propose we move towards a uniformly maintained contrib with no dependencies on other collections than base, opt and contrib itself. Regards, // Jukka

[clc-devel] Subversion for ports development
by Johannes Winkelmann 30 Dec '04

30 Dec '04

Hi there, I was rather busy playing around with sparc lately, but now found some time to look into Subversion for ports development. This mail isn't meant to start a discussion just yet and look for advantages and disadvantages of any system, but I'd like to ask those who know subversion to have a quick look at my docs, go through the howto and comment whether they like it or not (of course, everyone can have a look at the howto and comment; it might just be a bit brief). The "vision document" is here: http://jw.tks6.net/files/crux/xsvn/svn4ports The howto document is here: http://jw.tks6.net/files/crux/xsvn/xsvn.howto And the script which is mentioned there is here: http://jw.tks6.net/files/crux/xsvn/xsvn The script definitely needs more work to become more reliable and comfortable, especially in error situations. Credits go to the the linux1394 project and their Subversion page at http://www.linux1394.org/svn.php; the idea with the 'branch-points' is taken from them. Kind regards, Johannes -- Johannes Winkelmann mailto:jw@tks6.net Bern, Switzerland http://jw.tks6.net

[clc-devel] CRUXCon 2004 results
by Johannes Winkelmann 22 Dec '04

22 Dec '04

Hi there, It's been a while since CRUXCon 2004, and most of us have been busier than expected. Therefore, the summary is only now announced here. We've prepared a Wiki page (some time ago actually, you might have read it already) with the most important ideas and goals: http://clc.morpheus.net:6999/clc/wiki?p=CruxConResults It contains some pretty exciting things, such as merging CVS and Webpage of CRUX and CLC, (finally) dropping unmaintained and a master plan for improving the overall situation with httpup reposities. Another point worth mentioning (IMHO) is the "Define subprojects" thing: we'd like to have subprojects for things like 'ports', 'doc', 'webpage' or 'installer', where interested contributors can take part without being engaged in any other subproject. So having a developers or contributors who don't maintain ports would then be possible. Please take the time to read it and ask, since the document is a really short summary only. Personally, I think that if we manage to follow this plan, 2005 will be a step forward for both CLC and CRUX. I hope you see it the same way! Finally - if you haven't seen them yet - have a look at the pictures from CRUXCon 2004: http://jaeger.morpheus.net/images/travel/stockholm/ http://www.varlock.com/blosxom.cgi/galleries/cruxcon/ Kind regards, Johannes -- Johannes Winkelmann mailto:jw@tks6.net Bern, Switzerland http://jw.tks6.net
