New package asn1c

Hi, Find attached a T2-package for asn1c, another ASN.1 to C compiler I am currently experimenting with. This one was trivial. Ciao, MM

New package esnacc

Marian Aldenhövel — 2008-08-25T16:05:54

Hi, I tried my hand at another new package for T2. Esnacc is a compiler that can create C and C++ code for reading and writing BER-encoded structures specified in ASN.1. I ran into two problems where I do not know what the proper T2-way of fixing them would be. 1) Incorporate upstream patches The distribution consists of a tarball with the code for version 1.7 and two separate tarballs updating that to version 1.7.3 and then to 1.7.4. These tarballs contain files that replace the older ones. For now I have made the patch-tars part of the T2-package and written a prepatch-hook that unpacks them. No doubt it would be much better to download them from the upstream sources just like the 1.7 tarball and unpack from the download-directory. Can that be done? 2) Conditional patching? I am cross-compiling and the distribution includes examples that try to run code that has just been cross-built. Failing miserably. I could not find configure-options to disable these examples and thus have created a patch

Log4Cpp does not build with GCC 4.3.1

Marian Aldenhövel — 2008-08-23T12:44:34

Hi, The log4cpp package from the current head revision does not build for me. I think I have tracked down two of the problems to wrong/outdated #includes, and have attached my patches for those. Can someone please take a look at them and check whether I addressed the problems correctly and that the naming of the files is OK. But there is another problem that I cannot get around. Apparently there is a mixup of of some sort. The ERROR-LOG is attached as well. Ciao, MM

Hi there , the command option "I" for the tar does not work . chrooting on other distro's i ve tried does not work because the mount /dev command gives an error. even on a t2 host the stone command fails. when building generic target - minimal with basic desktop X - the libgsf package fails with missing python package. greetz

kdelibs 4.1 - qt 4.4.1 - dbus nightmare

2008-08-20T22:06:40

Hi All, Thanks for the speedy answers! It is very unlikely KDE (whatever version) will become central part of my system, because it is not focused neither on speed nor on simplicity. I include only base packages (qt4, kdelibs) which are supposed to be needed by graphical packages I use (openoffice.org among others). Regarding the original question I managed to reproduce errors and solution for 8.0 trunk rev30092. Putting pkg_qt4.conf with the already mentioned extra lines (if pkg_installed dbus ..) in my target folder qt4 compiled with QtDbus (needed by kdelibs). Some (at least for me) new issues: 1) in trunk 8.0 with kde4 the patch for kde3 in 'target/desktop' does not work (I guess the patch for kdebase is also obsolate, but it is not part of my target) anymore 2) It may sound crazy, but apparently (reproduced twice) automoc4 and phonon (both needed by kdelibs) do required to find the kde4 folder structure already there prior to building any of the kde4 packs. After the folder structure is created bo

espgs <-> gpl-ghostscript ?

2008-08-20T21:02:26

Hi, The fact is that I am using gpl-ghostscript quite rarely for cups, for me it works for some PS-PDF related tasks. So I would not dare to state it does work definitely for cups. At the same time according to the website it should, since espgs is merged into gpl-ghostscript in 2006. On 14th March 2007 last espgs (v8.5.14) was released. Since then in August 2007 "The Grand Unified Ghostscript Officially Released: GPL Ghostscript 8.60" (actually already 8.63) and it was recommended for use in Linux distributions. So even if there may be some regressions in gpl-ghostscript with CUPS not yet raised, espgs is closed, and all its developers are working on gpl-ghostscript instead. So gpl-ghostscript is the package to focus on I am sure about that. best regards, helasz

[ANNOUNCE] new & CGI based IRC logs

René Rebe — 2008-08-20T10:05:58

Hi all, thru the t2 website statistics I noticed irclogs where broken (due to changed permissions on the server) for some weeks, already. As restoring was just a matter of flipping a permission bit, I noticed the old IRC logs looks awful, and did not integrate into the site menu navigation. So people who accidentally hit a IRC log thru Google (or your favorite search engine, Cuil, Yahoo, ...) people foreign to the T2 SDE had no easy chance to discover T2 by clicking on the most appealing menu entry. Instead they had to manually edit the URL field and remove the irclog part of the URL to get to the main T2 site. This is fixed, now by rendering (pretty printing) the IRC log directly into our site content thru CGI, and thus enabling normal menu naviagation and an easy way to discover T2 thru random search engine hits, enjoy: http://www.t2-project.org/irclogs/ PS: Yes, I know the index takes some time to generate due excessive single file stats, I might work on improving this later. Yours,

Libhid-package

Marian Aldenhövel — 2008-08-19T20:11:50

Hi, My application requires libhid to facilitate communication with HID-style USB devices. A not-so-well-supported smartcard reader in my case. Libhid is autotools-based and is another trivial to make T2-package. All I had to add is a "autogen=1". Find my suggestion for a package attached. Fantastic system! Ciao, MM

espgs <-> gpl-ghostscript ?

2008-08-19T07:43:14

Hi All, I am wondering why the ghostscript (espgs -> according to their web site merged into gpl-ghostscript, not developed any more) is included in the 'generic / minimal desktop' target instead of gpl-ghostscript. I have compiled gpl-ghostscript more than once successfully, till now have not experienced any regression. best regards, helasz
