    <title>Names for debug packages</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.applications/23703</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;There's been discussion on the cygwin list about packages containing 
debug symbols, most recently in

   http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2012-02/threads.html#00536

where the consensus (I think) was that package maintainers could provide 
such packages if they wanted to.  I would like to provide a package 
containing debug symbols for emacs-*.exe, but I'm not sure what to call 
it.  The thread I just cited discussed *-debuginfo.  But since then 
Reini has released perl_debuginfo, and Corinna has released 
cygwin-debug.  Could/should we standardize these names?  I don't know 
whether to call my new package emacs-debuginfo, emacs_debuginfo, or 
emacs-debug.  My personal preference is the last one, simply because 
it's short.

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Yaakov,

TeX Live 2012 is in its pretesting phase and is using poppler-0.20.0. 
Would you be able to update Cygwin's poppler within the next few weeks? 
  That way I could drop the patch for poppler-0.18.4.

Thanks.

    <title>glib doesn't build from source</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.applications/23671</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;I tried to build glib using glib2.0-2.32.2-1.cygport from the source for 
Cygwin's libglib2.0_0-2.32.2-1 package, and the build failed as follows:

checking for LIBFFI... configure: error: Package requirements (libffi &amp;gt;= 
3.0.0) were not met:

No package 'libffi' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables LIBFFI_CFLAGS
and LIBFFI_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.

So I added the lines

export LIBFFI_LIBS="-lffi"
export LIBFFI_CFLAGS="-I${includedir}"

to the .cygport file, and the build then succeeded.

Yaakov, why did the build work for you with the existing .cygport?

this package has the .dll.a files but not the .a files:

    <title>cygport: Adding arbitrary files to the src package</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.applications/23628</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi Yaakov,


assuming I'd like to add some arbitrary files to the source package, so
that the -src package looks like this:

  foo-3.4.5.tar.bz2
  foo-3.4.5-1.cygport
  foo-3.4.5-1.cygwin.patch
  foo-3.4.5-1.src.patch
  arbitrary-file-1
  arbitrary-file-2

The idea here is that the files are neither part of the sources, nor do
I want the files to be part of the patches since they aren't patches.
They are just some files which should show up in the source package for
some dubious reason of my own.

I looked into the __pkg_srcpkg() function in lib/pkg_pkg.cygpart, but
I don't see any way to accomplish this.

    <title>cygport: user-supplied download action?</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.applications/23621</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi Yaakov,


Some upstream packages are not available as tar archives, but can only
be fetched directly from their source code control repo.  How would you
fetch them via cygport?

I think it might be a nice addition to allow the maintainer to specify
how to download sources and create the src tar file from it.  For
instance:

  SRC_URI="function"

  src_download() {
    cvs -d $repo ex -r $version foo
    mv foo ${P}
    tar cJf ${P}.tar.xz ${P}
    rm -rf ${P}
  }

Does that make sense?  Or is that already possible and I just didn't
realize how to it?

    <title>Time to obsolete the opengl package ?</title>

Hi fellow maintainers,
 

With the recent update of parrot, the only package depending on my old opengl package went away. I think 
it might be time to retire it, i.e., mark it as "obsolete". There may be some issues doing this, so I 
wanted to discuss it here first.
 

The opengl package has been a mixed bag of things related to native opengl, that is, the implementation 
provided with Windows by M$, upon which hardware-accelerated implementations, made by graphic card 
manufacturers, graft when available. The package contains, or has contained up to some point:
 

- Header files (.h) for M$ opengl and glu. Long ago (circa 2000), the w32api provided the linking 
libraries (.a) for these, but not the .h files. That anomaly was corrected a few years later and the 
ownership of the header files has been transferred to the w32api package.
 

- The native GLUT library, which aims at gluing opengl programs with the windows system, i.e., provide a 
graphic context and access t&lt;/pre&gt;</description>
