Well, it's a non-free package, but FPlacalcPlanet looks like a function
programmed by the astrolog devs to get a compatibility interface to
placalc, thus not falling under the problematic claims.  revjul and
julday would have been both easy to replace with similar functions,
but anyway, I'll go ahead with the stable removal, then.

Kind regards,

Bug#444061: bug against the astrolog debian package

2008-08-23 Thread Ralf Treinen
Hello,

you filed a bug against the astrolog debian package concnerning the licence
of the placalc.* files, and you said hat these files could simply be removed
from the package:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=444061

I did not succeed to compile the package without these files:

cc -o astrolog astrolog.o data.o data2.o general.o io.o calc.o matrix.o 
charts0.o charts1.o charts2.o charts3.o intrpret.o xdata.o xgeneral.o xdevice.o 
xcharts0.o xcharts1.o xcharts2.o xscreen.o -lm -lX11
calc.o: In function `ComputePlacalc':
/home/rt/debian/packages/qa/astrolog/astrolog-5.40/calc.c:361: undefined 
reference to `FPlacalcPlanet'
matrix.o: In function `JulianToMdy':
/home/rt/debian/packages/qa/astrolog/astrolog-5.40/matrix.c:109: undefined 
reference to `revjul'
matrix.o: In function `MdyToJulian':
/home/rt/debian/packages/qa/astrolog/astrolog-5.40/matrix.c:69: undefined 
reference to `julday'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Do you have an idea how to compile atsrolog without the placalc.* files? 
Otherwise
I guess we will have to remove the package from the archives, it is orphaned
anyway.

Best Regards -Ralf.
