Bug#201448: StepMania4 reached Alpha

I'm not interested in maintaining this, but I did have to build it 
because the last release is from 2016 and the released binary doesn't 
run on debian bullseye. In case someone does want to package it, maybe 
this will help them. I initially tried building against the system 
ffmpeg, but the build failed so I ended up just disabling ffmpeg support.



Here's what I did to build stepmania 5.1.0-beta2, after unpacking the 
source:



apt-get install cmake libgtk2.0-dev libjpeg-dev libmad0-dev 
libvorbis-dev nasm libudev-dev libbz2-dev libva-dev libglew-dev 
libpulse-dev libjack-dev  libasound2-dev


# note: this following step probably isn't necessary when ffmpeg is 
disabled. To enable it, you'd do cmake -D WITH_SYSTEM_FFMPEG=ON


apt-get install libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libswscale-dev

cd Build

cmake -D WITH_FFMPEG=OFF ..

make

make install

Hello,

I have stumbled upon pufferfish in Salsa which used to FTBFS. I patched
its build system a bit and now it builds successfully. If it is OK with

  Hopefully a 1000 projects don't need to be updated from Gradle 4 to
Gradle 7!

Still required since it creates a BoofVersion.java file that's needed. If
it can't find Git information it fills in that field with blank or unknown.

Hi Peter,

Thanks for prompt reply.

This would not help, I am afraid. Point with Gradle is that it needs
itself to build newer versions of Gradle (circular dependency on
itself), thus iteratively updating Gradle seems to be the only way to
have newer Gradle in Debian.

Debian does not do out-of-git builds (.git directory is removed from
sources prior to build), thus I guess this plugin would not be of much
use (but I may be wrong). Nevertheless Debian precisely tracks source
versions, thus version string could be injected via other means.

This one I have already packaged for Debian, so the packaged JAR could
be used.

Sure.

Bug#1006621: ITP: boofcv -- Real-time computer vision library

[Peter A]

Instead of updating the "gradle" command could we just install a new
"gradle7" command that points to Gradle 7 instead? I don't think Gradle is
very backwards compatible so that might be the easiest solution.

For Jars that BoofCV downloads, It doesn't download anything outside of
Gradle. It uses a Gradle plugin i created called gversion to
automatically generate version info and a set of tools to do other auto
generation tasks:

https://plugins.gradle.org/plugin/com.peterabeles.gversion
https://github.com/lessthanoptimal/Auto64Fto32F

Once the Gradle issue gets resolved we could then start adding these
dependencies.

Cheers,
- Peter

Expressing expectations is fine,
insisting on ones own expectation doesn't help.


FWIW, I only partly argee with "somebody else should do it",
thing I will do is sponsoring uploads to Debian.

On expressing expectations:  I love to see messages like

  At $URL is hurl dependency foo packaged. What is,
  beside review time, needed to get it uploaded to Debian?

Bug#1006621: ITP: boofcv -- Real-time computer vision library

[Andrius Merkys]

Dear Peter and Dima,

Sorry for the delay. Somehow I did not receive any mails sent to
1006...@bugs.debian.org (will subscribe), thus I only now noticed your
conversation after accidentally revisiting the bug page.

Good to meet you too, Peter!

First of all, regarding Cephis, my original reason to package BoofCV. It
depends on io, feature and visualize modules of BoofCV v0.17. AFAIK,
these should be static image analysis tools, thus stripping away more
complicated video and webcam support should make things much easier for
now. Of course, in the long run it would be nice to support video and
webcam parts of BoofCV in Debian as well.

Regarding Gradle. Debian has 4.4.1 now and updating it is complicated.
It would be nice to ask its maintainers in Debian to understand what are
the current blockers. Gradle wrapper cannot be used as downloads in the
build time are not allowed in Debian. Even more generally, Debian builds
can only rely on software which is built from source on Debian build
machines.

For now I see upgrading Gradle in Debian as the best solution to the
build issue. Simplifying/changing the build system is a viable solution
too, but I believe this would need much work and add maintenance burden
on Peter. Discussion in [1] gives me some hope Gradle will be updated
soon. I think it is worth pinging its participants.

Peter, you mention BoofCV build system downloading some JARs. Maybe we
could build these JARs in Debian as separate packages and use them in
BoofCV build? If Gradle blocker goes away, these might be the next blockers.
