Bug#494243: bug #494243: Is this the right fix?

2008-08-28 Thread Michael Biebl
Hi,

I'm wondering if this is the right fix :

-Build-Depends: debhelper ( 4), libgts-dev ( 0.7.3), libglib2.0-dev,
autotools-dev
+Build-Depends: debhelper ( 4), libgts-dev ( 0.7.3), libglib2.0-dev,
autotools-dev, libgts-bin


Shouldn't rather libgts-dev be fixed to include the gts-config binary?

CCing the gts maintainer for his opinion.

Cheers,
Michael

This would be the better thing to do, yes. But while gts-config is
provided by libgts-bin and while we are on freeze (maybe the release
team thinks that it is a too disruptive change), it isn't all wrong
to depends on B-D on libtgs-bin (at least from my point of view).

Best regards,
Nelson

Hi. I'm maintaining gts, and I'm working on gerris too...

I prepared a new package for the latest gerris release (1.3~), but it
was rejected some days ago, because some licenses of the new modules
aren't clear (I'm contacting working on it and contacting upstreams).

gerris package on debian is outdated for more than two years, and the
current package (version 0.6) isn't in a very good shape... I'm not sure
if this package should be included on lenny... 

If you guys think this version should be included, please feel free to
NMU using the Nelson's patch, because gts-config (from gts-bin) is only
used by gerris, and I think is better to solve it directly on gerris for
now (I will fix it on gts after the freeze).

If NMUing consider fixing #350595 too... It seems like it's only needed
a little change (_FPU_MASK_DZ instead of __FPU_MASK_DZ) to solve a FTBFS
on m68k...

Thanks a lot!

Ruben Molina
