[Fink-devel] fontconfig-path incompatible with xquartz

[Martin Costabel]

The xquartz X11 update packages have switched from
/usr/X11/lib/X11/fonts/fonts.conf for the fontconfig conf file to
/usr/X11/lib/X11/fontconfig/fonts.conf

Don't ask me why, probably because of a general "backward comaptibility 
is so boring" attitude. See the thread from

to

on the xquartz-dev mailing list.

The change happened already several months ago, I think in 
xquartz-2.2.0. And since Fink is now recommending to install the xquartz 
updates as a cure to the incompatibilities between Apple's stock X11 and 
Apple's stock xcode tools, the fontconfig-path package needs to adapt to 
this situation. Note that stock 10.5.5 X11 still uses the old directory 
for fonts.conf.

I don't know the fontconfig xml based lingo, so I don't know if the 
 directive in /sw/share/fontconfig-path/fontconfig-path.conf 
can be conditionalized on the existence of one fonts.conf file or 
another. It is probably easier to do this in a PostInst script.

In any case, the current situation is broken. If you run any executable 
that uses X11 fonts and fontconfig on an xquartz-updated X11 
installation, you get

Fontconfig error: Cannot load config file 
"/usr/X11/lib/X11/fonts/fonts.conf"

and the fonts are not loaded.

From the link you posted:

I'm happy to have a shot at making a doxygen.info and doxygen-docs.info
doxygen-docs can bring in everything needed to build the doxygen
samples, but would not need to be depended on by anything. doxygen
proper would be built to always work with whatever was installed at
runtime. If a package needed doxygen with graphviz, it could depend on
both of them.

Does this seem like a reasonable and useful approach to others?

Hi,

Any chance of getting this fix into Fink CVS? Tracker #2109085 has a
working fink info. See:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2109085&group_id=17203&atid=414256

Basically dlopen needs the full path to the dylib

Thanks.

Since the maintainer _was_ contacted about this, I'm going to go ahead  
and make this change in unstable.

It sounds good to me; all of these runtime-only things could be marked  
as  Recommends:

You probably ought to have a note in the DescDetail regarding the  
removal of dependencies.

Re: [Fink-devel] libdvdread.3 and libdvdcss

[Matthias Ringwald]

Talking about libdvdread. the mplayer team just released  
libdvdnv-4.1.3 and libdvdread-4.1.3.
maybe $YOU (not exactly specified whats the value of this variable..)  
could update these package, too.

I've been using it with vobcopy and mplayer for many months now without
any problems.

What isn't working?

Just so you know I'm not opposed to the change, but it doesn't seem to

The split and how others should depend on it sound right (as I 
understood it when I very lightly tested this idea back in that thread). 
  The biggest thing to check is that the doxygen binary gets built 
identically irregardless of what supporting packages are installed (ie 
graphviz, etc).  I don't know/use doxygen to test this (and didn't want 
to install graphviz an 90 supporting packages to really test this), but 
it should be straightforward to build doxygen w/out 
graphviz/latex/ghostscript absent and present (but not set up as a 
Depends on the .info file) and compare the outputs to make sure they're 
identical.

[TheSin]

css decryption still gives errors and i have yet to figure out if it's  
in libdvdcss or libdvdread.  But may as well commit the dlopen fix  
anyhow while I keep searching.
