Bug#347352: ITP: gnash -- free Flash movie player

2006-04-03 Thread Miriam Ruiz
I'm not sure about wanting to drop the -Wl,-z,defs linker options, as they
seem to be neccesary by policy. Apart from that, It was suggested by someone
to upload it to experimental while we wait for a release tarball.

I cannot upload it myself, so if someone wants to sponsor it, I can prepare a
package from the latest tarball. People who use AMD64 or PPC seem to
desperately want it, at least my friends, but I'm not sure if the software is
ready for the final user, or if the libraries are stable enough. Upstream
suggested not to upload it until they released an official tarball, but I
guess experimental would be OK.

I dropped it to fix some other problem.  Not sure if that problem
exist any more, so it might be a good idea to reinsert it.  I do not
have an opinion on that.

 Apart from that, It was suggested by someone to upload it to
 experimental while we wait for a release tarball.

I agree that uploading to experimental is a good idea.

 I cannot upload it myself, so if someone wants to sponsor it, I can

I can sponsor it.  Please read

Bug#347352: ITP: gnash -- free Flash movie player

2006-04-01 Thread Petter Reinholdtsen

Based on the proposed debian/ directory and the latest CVS source,
I've made test packages for gnash on sarge available from
URL:http://developer.skolelinux.no/~pere/debian/packages/.  I've
only tested the standalone viewer, but it seem to limp along just
fine.

Is there anything I can do to help get gnash into Debian/unstable?  I
believe it is a good idea to upload it soon, to get it past NEW as
soon as possible.  I do not believe it is a good idea to wait until
upstream releases a tarball, as this can take a while.

The reason I am interested in flash support in Debian is my
involvement in Debian Edu.  I've started a wiki page collecting test
pages and info about the state of free flash,
URL:http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/FlashInDebianEdu.  Feel free to
add more information to it. :)

Friendly,

 I've been successful in compiling most of the modules, but I haven't been
 able to build the plugin (even though I think it's not functional yet).

CVS HEAD built for me yesterday, but not today. I'm testing in a pbuilder
sid chroot with the following build dependencies installed:
libjpeg62-dev, libxmu-dev, libxml2-dev, libpng12-dev, libsdl-mixer1.2-dev,
libglut3-dev and libmad0-dev (for --enable-mp3).

Currently, I get link-time errors in libgeometry:
.libs/axial_box.o: In function `axial_box::get_random_point()
const':/tmp/buildd
/gnash-dev/libgeometry/axial_box.cpp:20: undefined reference to
`tu_random::get_unit_float()'
:/tmp/buildd/gnash-dev/libgeometry/axial_box.cpp:20: undefined 
reference to
:`tu_random::get_unit_float()'
:/tmp/buildd/gnash-dev/libgeometry/axial_box.cpp:20: undefined 
reference to
:`tu_random::get_unit_float()'
.libs/kd_tree_dynamic.o: In function

`mesh_node_dump':/tmp/buildd/gnash-dev/libgeometry/kd_tree_dynamic.cpp:1231:
undefined reference to `postscript::line(float, float, float, float)'
etc.; probably, an object file is missing from the link line.

 I've had to patch a bit some makefiles so that some of the modules can
 compile, and I use the following configure string:

 CFLAGS=-Wall -g -O2 -Wl,-z,defs ./configure

It's cleaner to use
CFLAGS=-Wall -g -O2 LDFLAGS=-Wl,-z,defs ./configure ...

HTH,
Ray

2006-01-12 Thread Miriam Ruiz
I'm configuring the package successfully with:

CFLAGS=$(CFLAGS) -lxml2 CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/include/SDL
-I/usr/include/mozilla/nspr \
./configure --host=$(DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE) --build=$(DEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE) \
--prefix=/usr --mandir=\$${prefix}/share/man 
--infodir=\$${prefix}/share/info
\
--with-libxml-includes=/usr/include/libxml2/
--with-firefox-includes=/usr/include/mozilla/ \
--enable-pthreads --enable-dom --enable-http --enable-dmalloc \
--enable-dependency-tracking --enable-plugin --enable-xmlreader

(thanks Arnaud)


My problem now it that when trying to install it, it tries to put some files
out of DESTDIR.

Another point is that doc cannot get into main, as it is available under a
non-debian-free license: GNU Free Documentation License

I won't be able to do much on it until monday, I'm going away the weekend.

Greetings,
iry

Everything seems to compile properly until the plugin is supposed to be built
(plugin/mozilla-sdk). All the compilation goes all right, but when it comes to
linking I get an error.

I've sent an email upstream asking for support, if you want I can forward it
to you. Have you been successful in compiling the program under SID?

Greetings,
Miry

Bug#347352: ITP: gnash -- free Flash movie player

2006-01-10 Thread Miriam Ruiz
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Miriam Ruiz [EMAIL PROTECTED]


* Package name: gnash
  Version : 0.0.20051226
  Upstream Author : Rob Savoye [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* URL : http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash
* License : GPL
  Description : free Flash movie player

 Gnash is a Free Flash movie player, which works either standalone, or as a
 Firefox/Mozilla plugin.  Currently Gnash only has working support for the
 standalone Flash movie player. Development of the plugin is under heavy
 development at this time.

 Gnash supports the current Shockwave format, version 7. While all the
 ActionScript classes exist, not all of the methods defined by the SWF format
 documentation are implemented however, so not all flash movies work 100% if
 they utilize any of the unimplemented methods. This is one of the areas to
 work on to achieve full version 7 compliance.

  Included in the Gnash is an XML based messaging system, as specified in
 the Flash specification. This lets a flash movie communicate over a TCP/IP
 socket, and parse the incoming XML message. This lets a movie be a remote
 control for other devices or applications.
