I found the problem.

I had set TMP to /tmp for pbuilder instead of /tmp/bam,
but I forgot about TEMP.

Apparently gs must use TEMP instead of TEMP. Argghh!

Preferred way to build shared objects from PIC archives?

[Aaron M. Ucko]

The shared libraries in ncbi-tools6 and related packages currently
start out as static archives of PIC objects, which then get turned
into shared libraries with commands of the form

gcc  -shared -Wl,-soname=libddvlib.so.6 -o libddvlib.so.6.1.20020426 \
-Wl,-whole-archive libddvlib.a -Wl,-no-whole-archive

This (admittedly roundabout) procedure works fine on i386, and has
worked on other platforms until now, but as of some time in the past
three months has started failing on arm with

/usr/lib/gcc-lib/arm-linux/2.95.4/libgcc.a(__dummy.o): In function `__dummy':
__dummy.o(.text+0x0): multiple definition of `__dummy'
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/arm-linux/2.95.4/libgcc.a(__dummy.o)(.text+0x0): first defined
 here

and a slew of similar messages.  Is this a toolchain bug, or am I
going about things the wrong way?  (Building the shared libraries
directly, while obviously preferable, would require too much tweaking
to the awkward upstream build system.)

Please Cc me on replies, as I do not subscribe to -devel.

I think it can be replacable with below Tsugio's source.

Debian package uses his (Tsugio's) source. It also can handle -lh7-
format.  I already contacted with him, but his responce were too slow
(waited over 4 months, or more!), and he thought changing license was
very difficult. LHa for unix was hacked by many people at least over
13 years, they have treated thier license as "vague". Historical
reason makes diffcult to change their license.

It seems good idea, but we have to make them push thier source as
public, and then port into unix... I don't know porting from amiga
into unix is easy issue or not.

They were in 1.28-1.1 (NMU by Joey), but during the transition the
maintainer uploaded 1.18-2 compiled against the old perl 5.6 ... so
Joey's NMU got lost. Then the maintainer uploaded -3 compiled against perl
5.8 but without the build-dep, he finally added the build dep in -4.

Everything is ok now.

I hate to say, but the list of failed packages needs to get
investigated a little bit, since not all failures seem to be GCC 3.2
and syntax related:


apt: failed with "debian/rules:20: build/environment.mak: No such file or 
directory"
gg: failed with "/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ljpeg"
hylafax: failed because textfmt wasn't built[1]
latte: failed with "Your STL string implementation is unusable."
nana: failed with "make: dh_testdir: Command not found"
qnix: failed with "make: execvp: ./configure: Permission denied"

Finally, the seventh build log I viewed contained a real GCC 3.2 error:

/usr/include/c++/3.2/backward/backward_warning.h:32:2: warning:
#warning This file includes at least one deprecated or antiquated h
eader. Please consider using one of the 32 headers found in section
17.4.1.2 of the C++ standard. Examples include substituting the 
header for the  header for C++ includes, or  instead of
the deprecated header . To disable this war ning use
-Wno-deprecated.

This looks like there is advice hidden in a manual and all maintainers
of the corresponding packages should be informed about upcoming
failures in their packages.

Willy, are you going to add this to the transition propsal?

Please port the package to other architectures first.  It seems to use
some i386'isms which make the build fail on non-i386 architectures.

Please learn about the search feature at buildd.debian.org which
is quite helpful in such cases:

http://buildd.debian.org/build.php?arch=&pkg=brltty

Basically it says that all builds on another architecture failed.  No
wait, that was version 2.98-x.  It doesn't have a trace of 3.0-1.

Ryan Murray told me that there is an override database for the
Architecture line which is used by the buildds, hence, the buildds
were ignoring the Architecture line of the debian/control file.
I've asked him to remove the entry and he's going to do some test
compiles first and will remove that line perhaps.

What happened to libdbi-perl ?

Joey NMUed it in the pool, but it appears to not have been installed.
Since I rebuilt my libdbd-{pg,mysql}-perl package with the libdbi for
perl 5.8, my packages are currently uninstallable ... I'm willing to do
another libdbi-perl NMU if needed, I just want to be sure it's really
needed.

Nah, it should just be rephrased to say it includes policies and guidelines,
and _not_ "two parts", because they're not separated in two parts.

There was a bug filed on www.debian.org but I can't recall what happened to
it. We certainly couldn't just change it, because that's not a random web
page, it's "owned" by debian-admin etc.

Machine usage policies

[Oliver Elphick]

I just took a close look at the machine usage policies at
http://www.debian.org/devel/dmup

1. Section 1 says the document contains both policies and guidelines. 
There is a section headed policies, but none headed guidelines.  I guess
that the examples section should be part of guidelines.  It may be that
some of the explanatory content near the top of policies should be
regarded as guideline but that is not clear.

2. "You are responsible for ... ensuring that the contents of [your WWW]
pages do not violate the laws that apply to the location of the server."
I checked a couple of machines in the list of machines, but there seems
to be no information about their location.  So it is impossible to tell
whether or not you are complying with this section.  The machine list
should record the country in which the machine is located and mention
any particular legal requirements of that country.

If they have any sort of versioned dependency on provides (we should make a
list of those), actually.

But since this is a non-local check, and hard to write, I guess tailoring it
to detect dependencies on old perl, and on stuff the new perl provides would
do.

Bug#158102: ITP: spiralsynthmodular -- Object orientated modular softsynth / sequencer / sampler

[Stefan Schwandter]

Package: wnpp
Version: N/A; reported 2002-08-25
Severity: wishlist

* Package name: spiralsynthmodular
  Version : 0.1.0
  Upstream Author : Dave Griffiths <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL : http://www.pawfal.org/Software/SSM/
* License : GPL
  Description : Object orientated modular softsynth / sequencer / sampler

You can use it in a fairly straight forward way to make tracks with,
or get very experimental. Audio or control data can be freely passed
between the plugins, there is no difference. Data can also be fed
back on itself for chaotic effects.

It depends on the new fltk 1.1 libraries. I'll take over the old ones from
the current fltk maintainer and package the new ones.

SpiralSynthModular and rather old but working fltk1.1 packages can be
downloaded from http://people.debian.org/~swan .

It might be. You may want to do "pbuilder login --distribution woody" and
try building it by hand in there, then do some traces on the ps2pdf
conversion.

Diamonds as An investment

I took the liberty of getting your email address from the internet. I will
not bother you again after this intrusion.
My name is Anthony Thomas and I am an English diamond dealer.  
Diamonds are a great investment with their price rising app 8-10% per year
without the risks that the equity markets (stocks and shares) have as we
have recently witnessed. 

The problem has always been however that a normal individual cannot get
access to diamonds at the genuine 'trade' price so that resale was very
difficult and one would have to wait many years before being able to get a
return on their investment diamonds. This is no longer the case for you.

We are currently offering our loose certified diamonds at 40% off the
international wholesale price (known as the Rappaport Price List). This
price is less than most retailers would ever hope to pay for such goods.
The European Gemological Laboratory certifies all stones and all goods may
be supplied using an ESCROW service so that funds are not released to us
until you have safely recieved the goods. Please feel free to ask ANY
independent jeweler if this is a good deal or not. 
Obviously if this is of interest to you then we need to talk directly to
one another. Please telephone me on +6617626045 or fax me on +662 6309
612. Please do not reply to me by email as this account is only being used
to send this once only message. Thank you for your time.
Kind regards
A. Thomas.

Strange. This is a freshly installed and updated woody chroot, too.

That is the same version of clamav I compiled too.

So the error is coming from gs?

I don't have convenient access to the system right now, but I have
never set that environment variable myself, and I really doubt that
anything else would have set it with me knowing.

So I wonder what is different about my system that means it doesn't work
here, but it works everywhere else?

Could it be related to devfs or something? (on the host system, I have
devfs compiled into the kernel, but disabled on boot.)

Also I have configured pbuilder to use DEVPTS. I can't think why this
would matter, but just in case...

ps2pdf uses gs to do the real work.

You don't happen to have the GS_DEVICE environment variable set?

I guess it depends on what you want to do. I've fit debian on a  200MB drive
and I've filled a 2GB drive as well. It just depends on what you install.
