Package: yosys Version: 0.66-1
There is a new upstream version 0.67 of yosys. I tried to package it for Debian experimental, but failed. The main reason is that the upstream git repository have changed to using git submodules of the embedded libraries, but it also did not help that the build system have been changed from autoconf/make to cmake, making several of the existing patches to no longer apply. The git submodule approach is not compatible with the recipe in debian/README.source on how to get the latest upstream source (gbp import-orig --component=abc --uscan), as this do not import the submodules in libs/, and thus the source do not have all the source it need to build. The replaced build system invalidate several Debian specific fixes like getting autopkgtest working with the test suite in yosys and several other patches. These patches modify the no longer present Makefile and thus need to be ported to cmake, if they are still needed: 0001-Make-tests-runnable-standalone.patch 0007-Disable-pretty-build.patch 0010-Fix-adding-of-sys.path-in-yosys-smtbmc.patch 0011-Do-not-show-g-build-flags-in-Version-string.patch 0031-Set-pythonpath-for-usage-docs.patch I do not understand cmake enough to do the change myself, and hope someone else who understand cmake can have a look. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen
