I think that is Anand Kumria and I do not believe that Anand has any problems with the way I have been releasing libsndfile so far and I know him well enough that he would say something if I screwed up. well, its just that statically linked binaries in debian should be omitted by policy (or, might be non policy compliant). Imagine a security bug in libflac, debian's security team would have to care about the libflac packages AND sndfile - duplicate work again. I am now the maintainer of libsndfile (I adopted it from Anand some time ago) and I strongly second Michael's arguments. I have nothing against having the FLAC sources included in libsndfile but please provide an easy way to link against external FLAC sources. I will manage FLAC API transitions.

Unfortunately, this is not the Debian way of handling things :/ The main reason is that duplication of work should be avoided. If the FLAC maintainer applies a patch, sndfile should be able to benefit of it (that's the idea behind shared libs). Please, provide a way to build against an external FLAC. indeed, shipping your own flac source and linking against it is more error prone and might lead to further bugs .. (and means also more work ..) If, however, libsndfile needs a hacked FLAC source and thus ships its own version, you should coordinate this with libflac's maintainer, maybe there is a way to include those changes. bye, - michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Firstly, the main reason I am shipping a subset of the FLAC sources as part of libsndfile is to make building a FLAC enabled libsndfile easier on MacOSX and windows. Secondly, I intend to sync the FLAC sources in libsndfile against FLAC CVS and test it thoroughly before each release. Finally, the current bug in libsndfile (ie not building) was caused by changes to the FLAC API, a problem which can never occur again if I ship a verify subset of the FLAC sources with libsndfile.

But having a debian package which does need to ship/build its own libflac and link against it, is IMHO opinion useless and duplicates work (might also waste mirror space). Ive been in the same situation with streamripper. Its author ships both libtre and libmad with his source archive, but still allows me to remove it from the tarball and link against the versions in debian - that doesnt waste mirror space and saves build time + i dont have to mess with bugs in the libtre / libmad versions from his tarball. bye, - michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
