Shouldn't this be /etc/preremove/base-files-manifest.lst?
humm, prob, I didn't know where the script was run from, but
a full path would make that redundant.
Also, why not simply
erm, cause I didn't know how? ;)
My scripting capabilities are not really *that* good, I just
hack up something which works; which is why I appreciate the
input from somebody better (ie you!) :)
while read f; do
if /bin/cmp -s ${f} /etc/defaults${f}; then
echo $f hasn't been modified, it will be updated /bin/rm -f
${f} fi
done /etc/preremove/base-files-manifest.lst
or even
while read f; do
/bin/cmp -s ${f} /etc/defaults${f} \
echo $f hasn't been modified, it will be updated \ /bin/rm
-f ${f} done /etc/preremove/base-files-manifest.lst
but I'll add the test for diffutils :)
No need -- it should be safe here. You really need this test if you
want to distinguish between false (i.e., 1..126) and missing
(i.e., 127).
This way the skel files will be upgraded in the same manner.
I have been wondering how best to release this, there have been
several patches to profile, but if I release a new package with the
new version of profile then the preremove script will never
upgrade... but how long do I (we? ;) give people to upgrade?
J.
Maybe just add a note in the announcement (and, of course, the README)
that if the /etc/profile doesn't contain any customizations, one
should remove it before upgrading the base-files package to be able
to get the latest versions in the future...
Igor
OK. I'll have to create the README - there never has been one!
Give me a few days and I'll post a test version.

CMake 2.0.2-1 ready
There has been a new release of the official cmake (2.0.2).
This is a major release from 1.8.3 to 2.0.2
Changes in CMake 2.0.2:
- Remove automatic -I for source directory with makefile generator.
Problems caused by this can be fixed with this command:
INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}).
Or, you can set the CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY to 1.8.
- Fixed parsing of unquoted arguments to allow double-quotes within the
argument.
- Add a STREQUAL to the IF command.
- Modules/FindFLTK.cmake: look for both Fl.h or Fl.H.
- Fix compound IF crash on unix. BUG id 917.
- Fix path problem with sub projects and IDE workspace files.
- Add a FindKDE module.
- Modules/FindFLTK.cmake: fix for bug 915
- BUG#891: When building CMake itself, use the new cmake to install so
that the current cmake can be overwritten.
- BUG: Files in top-level directory of source tree were not reported in updates log
for ctest.
- Fix find library so it does not find directories.
Changes in CMake 2.0.1:
- Platform independent Install (no more install-sh); supports pre install, post
install, manifest, destdir...; faster and it works on Windows
- Add support for SWIG
- Optional support for relative paths
- INCLUDE and FIND_PACKAGE both check CMAKE_MODULE_PATH
- IF command supports better expression support, like IF(A AND B AND C)
- IF command now has a numeric EQUAL test
- MACRO's now support variable arguments
- FOREACH supports a RANGE of values genertor
- CMake supports an automatic pre-load cmake file in the source tree of a project.
- GET_TARGET_PROPERTY can give you the build location of a target.
- Loaded commands have a crash signal handler to detect crashes not caused by cmake.
- GET/SET_DIRECTORY_PROPERTY/PROPERTIES commands so that we can change include
directories
and get all sorts of things.
- VEBOSE build option for visual studio IDE generators.
- FIND_LIBRARY and FIND_PATH now look in CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH and CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH
environment variables in addition to and before the PATH environment variable.
- Each sub project in a project now creates a top level IDE project file so it can
be loaded independently.
- A saftey chech was added to make sure that files written using WRITE_FILE
and FILE WRITE are not used as input files which can lead to infinite loops in the
build.
- Add support for adding object files and sources. This way you can use external
program such as assembler or fortran to generate object files. Also star of
fixing: Bug #757
- add .o file as a source file.
- New REMOVE_DEFINITION command, opposite to ADD_DEFINITIONS.
- CCmake support for HOME and END keys. Also fix Bug #666, in CCMake when deleting
something, it does not stop at the beginning of line.
- Fix externl projects for VS7 and VS6.
- New support for import of modules without specifying a path.
- New testing option to build and run an executable --build-and-test.
- Support for shared library versions on UNIX.
- SUBDIR command now supports PREORDER build option.
- Add support for file names with +-~ in them for borland compiler.
- Mac OSX bundle executable creation support with the ADD_EXECUTABLE command.
- CTest Support for in-source builds.
- CTest Skip tests that do not have defects.
- CTest new option -I that adds the ability to run a limited sub-set of the tests.
- CTest support for Valgrind and Purify.
- CTest New testing script support, that allows the nightly testing process to be
automated.
- New Find modules: FindPHP4.cmake, FindPerlLibs.cmake, FindPike.cmake,
FindRuby.cmake, FindSWIG.cmake, UseSWIG.cmake
- Many bug fixes and other minor changes.

ldesc: CMake is a cross platform build manager. It allows you to specify build
parameters for C and C++ programs in a cross platform manner. For cygwin Makefiles
will be generated. CMake is also capable of generating microsoft project files, nmake,
and borland makefiles. CMake can also perform system inspection operations like
finding installed libraries and header files.

Re: db4.2 packaging suggestion
Max schrieb: The html docs for the db4.2 command line utilities are in the libdb4.2-devel package and installed into /usr/share/doc/libdb4.2-devel-4.2.52. This causes the link to them from the main db documentation to be broken. I suggest that either all the docs be installed in /usr/share/db-4.2.52, regardless of which sub-package they are in, or, the link in /usr/share/doc/db-4.2.52/index.html be edited from utility/index.html to ../libdb4.2-devel-4.2.52/utility/index.html . Thanks for the report. I'll change the package layout and provide a speparate docs package including all the docs. Gerrit -- =^..^=

Re: [ITP] gtk-doc
On Sun, 20 Jun 2004 17:19:46 -0500, Yaakov Selkowitz Since I have gtk-doc installed and I'm the maintainer tobe I don't see why it is needed to remove the flag. However, it is not much more work as I already have loaded on my plate to provide also a gtk-doc package since it is a prerequisite to build gnome packages (at least for the CVS versions). Well I always thought that source packages should be buildable as-is, providing all requisite packages are present--meaning that any build requirements should be in the distro. Am I wrong on this? cygwin-doc does not meet this requirement...
