request some changes on core and opt packages.

Hello, To make Cinnamon work on Crux some core and opt packages schould have a little change. Glib will have to be 2.35 so a little update which can be without any problems. The next packages schould change rm /usr/local in /usr/local/share so that the gir package which will be in /usr/local/gir-1.0 is not deleted. - gdk-pixbuf - atk- gtk3- pango So my request is if these changes could committed so I can work on. Regards, Roelof

No, no and no Odd versions of glib are "unstalbe" and will not be committed. No crux package should EVER install anything in /usr/local. If you want these things changed you will have to maintain these ports yourself in your own repo. -- Fredrik Rinnestam

Considering former posts on this ML, I >>!*guess*!<< OP meant not to delete /usr/share; using /usr/local/share wouldn't be his concern.

Correct , I only need usr/local/gir-1.0 otherwise I have to look if the files can be placed in another place.Without these gir-files it's impossible to make Cinnamon or another DE which uses gobject-introspection.

I get your point but this goes against packaging guidelines. Maintaining your own repo is the right way to do it.

Hello, Because there is no way I can change the directory where the .gir files are placed and because I find it wierd that I have to maintain packages which are already maintain by another person I have decided to quit porting and quit crux linux. Regards, Roelof

_______________________________________________ CRUX mailing list CRUX@lists.crux.nu http://lists.crux.nu/mailman/listinfo/crux You could cp -r them ports and edit them how you like in your own repository. Get it to work then maybe we will pick out changes, as for glib we wont use unstable development odd numbered versions.
place a prtdir /usr/ports/foo in prt-get.conf above all other lines to over ride opt ports with your versions. Regards, Danny
