Bug#824426: FTBFS against libical2
tags 824426 +pending Hi folks, thanks for all the reports, discussion, and testing feedback. I submitted an upload request to my sponsor. The current state of the package is also pushed to the git repository. Regards, Tino
Bug#824426: FTBFS against libical2
I just tried Tino's 1.5.1 packages, and they appear to work flawlessly, solving the problem I reported above (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=824426#17). Many thanks, Justus -- Intelligent and Interactive Systems https://iis.uibk.ac.at/ Institute of Computer Science, University of Innsbruck, Austria

I just wanted to do some more testing regarding SyncML and CalDAV/CardDAV, but got stuck in too much RL. I'd be glad if someone could do some testing and confirm that nothing breaks. Regards, Tino

There hasn't been much demand for new features lately, so I consider SyncEvolution fairly stable and in maintenance now. However, making it compile on newer systems certainly counts as "maintenance" - I'll look into it. The problem for me upstream nowadays is mostly around continuing to provide pre-compiled binaries for different distros. I got stuck on that the last time I tried preparing a new release, because distros have diverged in quite a few relevant libraries now (libical, EDS, even libopenobex). Perhaps I should just give up on that front. OTOH, Debian itself is still on an old, pre-release version. Tino, do you still have plans for getting SyncEvolution updated in Debian? > The libical2 transition has already been done in fedora so for comparison > they're patching their syncevolution, see: > http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/syncevolution.git/tree/syncevolution-1.5.1-libical2.patch > > IMNSHO the fedora patch is an ugly hack since duplicating the information > instead of using accessor method isn't nice IMO.

For Debian it might be enough to just call the accessor method. -- Best Regards, Patrick Ohly The content of this message is my personal opinion only and although I am an employee of Intel, the statements I make here in no way represent Intel's position on the issue, nor am I authorized to speak on behalf of Intel on this matter.

Hello!

The global variable referenced above is indeed gone (in general libical seems to be moving away from global variables in 2.0.0 in favour of accessor methods). The new accessor function to get the value is called icaltimezone_tzid_prefix(). See: http://sources.debian.net/src/libical/2.0.0-0.4/src/libical/icaltimezone.c/?hl=150#L150 I looked upstream but there seemed to be very little activity in recent time. Possibly there's some bug tracker or mailing list post somewhere, but I didn't search that far. The libical2 transition has already been done in fedora so for comparison they're patching their syncevolution, see: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/syncevolution.git/tree/syncevolution-1.5.1-libical2.patch IMNSHO the fedora patch is an ugly hack since duplicating the information instead of using accessor method isn't nice IMO. OTOH I've looked at syncevolutions usage of the global variable and if we're going to replace it we see it in two places. The one failing the build above + in the syncevolution homebrew/duplicated evolution(-data-server?) API. That one looks too scary to touch for me who has no way to test this so I sympathize with fedoras patch and maybe it's better to go that route. Also, the get accessor seems to be missing from the libical2.symbols for some reason so might need fixes on the libical side to be properly exported Regards, Andreas Henriksson
