Re: [Bf-committers] Blender 2.59 release AHOY!
Hello, While I was packaging this last Blender version for Debian, I noticed there is no svn tag for 2.59 . I use this tag in my preparation-for-build script to create the upstream tarball.

[Bf-committers] Bug #27167 : blender crash with illegal hardware instruction on amd x86 + call for testers
Hi everyone, Some Debian users reported [1] a crash with blender (from 2.53 to early 2.57) on amd 32bit computer because of some SSE2 instructions enabled. I've already reported this on #27167 and I give a shot in the ML. One user sent the following patch that seems to fix both build and execution on this kind of architecture : Start of patch ** diff -ru blender-2.56.1-beta-svn34076.orig/build_files/cmake/macros.cmake blender-2.56.1-beta-svn34076/build_files/cmake/macros.cmake --- blender-2.56.1-beta-svn34076.orig/build_files/cmake/macros.cmake 2010-12-23 00:09:30.0 +0100 +++ blender-2.56.1-beta-svn34076/build_files/cmake/macros.cmake 2011-04-23 19:45:14.297633657 +0200 @@ -220,7 +220,7 @@ # message(STATUS Detecting SSE support) if(CMAKE_COMPILER_IS_GNUCC OR CMAKE_COMPILER_IS_GNUCXX) - set(CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS -msse -msse2) + set(CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS -msse -msse2 -O0) elseif(MSVC) set(CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS /arch:SSE2) # TODO, SSE 1 ? endif() * End of patch *** From what I've investigate so far, SSE2 is tested only for RAY_OPTIMIZATION however execution failed in RNA_def_property_range().

I can't reproduce the bug because I don't own any amd computer and it makes my investigations harder. Therefore I'm looking for testers or builders which are running a Debian Sid or are familiar with -msse(2) in gcc. Meanwhile, I will take a look at the wiki page about buildbot configuration from Sergey.

Re: [Bf-committers] 2.55 beta AHOY!
Hi Blender Developers, Ubuntu/Debian builds of 2.55 are available at http://launchpad.net/~kiniou/+archive/ppa for lucid, maverick and natty. Debian code is hosted at http://git.debian.org/?p=collab-maint/blender.git;a=summary and I've uploaded source package to mentors.debian.net. About build infos, blenderplayer is back but blender still lacks opencollada support due to inexistant package in the debian world. Packaging OpenCollada is on my TODO list :) . Critics are welcome ;) PS: I've quickly tested on my laptop and can't get the 3button emulation (aka WIN+ALT+LMB) work. Is this a known bug?

Re: [Bf-committers] [Bulk] Re: Release AHOY, rev 30579 - lazy bum warning
Hi, I've successfully built and uploaded the Debian/Ubuntu package to my Launchpad PPA : https://launchpad.net/~kiniou/+archive/ppa Because Blender is currently orphaned in Debian, I'm looking to adopt the package and therefore I'm open to suggestion/criticism about the package itself. You will probably have to manually tell aptitude/apt-get to install it because 2.5 is lower than 2.49 in apt world. Seems quite logical and if I cannot find a fix, I will rename it into 2.50-beta. Anyway this is a great release and blender works like a charm on my linux desktop with ati opensource drivers. Thanks!!!

But so far the status is more likely Orphaned and I'm not yet a debian maintainer.
