TeXmacs problems resolved, package ready
TeXmacs compiles now for me as well nicely with gcc 3.3.1 and cygwin 1.5.7. I've made new packages based on the latest version, which is 1.0.3.3 now. From my perspective there are no remaining hold-ups, and as the required 3 votes are obtained, it might be time now to roll out the package: wget \ http://alice.fmi.uni-passau.de/~seidl/cygwin/release/TeXmacs/TeXmacs-1.0.3.3-1-src.tar.bz2 wget \ http://alice.fmi.uni-passau.de/~seidl/cygwin/release/TeXmacs/TeXmacs-1.0.3.3-1.tar.bz2 wget \ http://alice.fmi.uni-passau.de/~seidl/cygwin/release/TeXmacs/setup.hint Andreas. -- http://www.fmi.uni-passau.de/~seidl

Thank you. Glad I could help. Some leftover problems: 1) Binary: the manpage is now not compressed, but is otherwise identical to the previous version, i.e., it still contains --GLOBALCONF-- and --BVERSION--. Guess it *is* tricky[*]. :-) The fact that the manpage is not compressed in the binary package is weird, since building from source *does* compress it. 2) Patch: GLOBALCONF is still set in two places, and erroneously in the second (i.e., it's set to $(DESTDIR)/usr/share/boxes/boxes.conf, which is wrong when DESTDIR is overridden).

Ok, here's a second review. Problems (and nits) outlined below:
setup.hint:
1) ldesc has leftover hyphenation ("pro- gramming"), and is all on one
line.
Binary package:
2) The man page reports "This is boxes version --BVERSION--.", and still
has the --GLOBALCONF-- string. Something wrong with macro substitution,
perhaps?
3) The Cygwin-specific readme still indicates 1.3.22 as the minimum Cygwin
version.
Otherwise the binary package looks good.
Now for the source package:
-- patch
4) The patch contains boxes.README and boxes.README.b (the latter being
the old version of the README, AFAICS).
5) The patch to the Makefile changes the value of GLOBALCONF, but there's
a build.sh script in the patch that explicitly passes GLOBALCONF to make.
That's overkill, IMO -- the build.sh script isn't necessary for this.
6) Is there a reason you remove boxes.1 (a generated file) via patch?
This is where build.sh can come in handy (and make the patch smaller ;-).
7) There's a typo in the patch for src/Makefile: "+exec_prefix = $(refix)".
Frankly, I don't see how this ever built correctly...
-- script
8) The script will put the build files in /usr/src/cygwin-packages. I do
NOT want any script to muck with my /usr/src unless I run it from there.
The package build should be contained under the current directory.
9) The build produces some warnings (mostly "implicit declaration" --
missing headers?).
10) Looking at the output, the script excludes generated files from the
patch, but, apparently, doesn't pick up boxes.1 as a generated file...
This could explain 6) above.
11) The usr/share/man, usr/share/doc/boxes-2401, and usr/share/boxes
directories (and their subdirectories) end up as non-executable in the
binary tarball created by the script (wrong flags to install?).
12) The build doesn't happen in boxes-2401/.build, it happens directly
in boxes-2401...
13) The script leaves the boxes-2401 directory behind... Don't know
if it should be expected to clean it up, though...
Some of the above are nits, but some (like the build script using
/usr/src) are serious.
