x libraries and powerpc/ppc64 biarch setup.

2005-09-23 Thread Sven Luther
Hello,

In an attempt to look about how to best bring biarch 64bit support to the
powerpc architecture, and after Andreas Jochens asked about powerpc 64bit
xlibs support for some apps he is using and which needs 64 bit support, i am
wondering what the opinion of the X strike force team is about adding a couple
of lib...64... versions of the X librariesfor the etch timeframe. They would
need to be rebuilt with the -m64 flag, but shouldotherwise just work, thanks
to the great work of our toolchain folk.

So, would the above be excluded totally, do you have another better solution
(like using a design with a 64bit backend and a 32bit X frontend, not sure how
this would be efficiency-wise, but it would probably need a lot of work for
the applications to be rewritten in this way).

x apparently already builds just fine in 64bit mode, or at least Andreas
Jochens has done it, and if multi-arch ever becomes really usable, then
another approach would be needed, in the meantime, the biarch is support we
will have for etch.

Friendly,

Sven Luther

'xorg-x11' indeed builds fine on the native 64-bit ppc64 port when the
patch from BTS #319178 is applied. That patch just adds minimal
support to make the package build on the ppc64 architecture:

* Add ppc64 to 'Architecture:' fields in debian/control
* Add ppc64 handling to debian/xserver-xorg.config.in
* Add the following new files:
debian/scripts/vars.ppc64
debian/MANIFEST.ppc64.in
debian/libxvmc-dev.install.ppc64
debian/libxvmc1-dbg.install.ppc64
debian/libxvmc1.install.ppc64
debian/xlibmesa-dri-dbg.install.ppc64
debian/xlibmesa-dri.install.ppc64
debian/xserver-xorg.config.in
debian/xserver-xorg.docs.ppc64
debian/xserver-xorg.install.ppc64

Note that this patch has nothing to do with the powerpc/ppc64 biarch 
'lib64...' approach that Sven has in mind. I have no idea if a
biarch approach would work for the 'xorg-x11' package. Even
if it is possible, I fear that it would complicate the packaging
of 'xorg-x11'. 

It would certainly be nice to have 64-bit versions of the X 
libraries available on powerpc (and also on i386). However,
IMHO this problem should be solved by implementing 'multiarch',
i.e. by allowing the installation of packages that have been 
built on a different architecture.

Andreas Jochens

hasn't been decided yet, and that in any case the 64bit name will be
powerpc64, not ppc64.

More to this in the coming days.

Bug#329788: libxrender-dev: 1:0.9.0+CVS20050919-1

2005-09-23 Thread Gustavo Noronha Silva
Package: libxrender-dev
Version: 1:0.9.0-2
Severity: important

While trying to build pygtk2.8 on a experimental chroot I found it
trying to link to /usr/local/lib/libXrender.so; I believe this is
caused by libXrender.la giving wrong directions:

$ grep ^libdir /usr/lib/libXrender.la
libdir='/usr/local/lib'

I removed the auto-generated information because it was generated from
my unstable system; The chroot is basically an up-to-date experimental
one.

Thanks,

 Please do not start the naming debate for the ppc64 port again. 
 This has been discussed and decided months ago. 

Decided ? i don't think i was part of this discussion, and with the ppc/ppc64
kernel upstream thingy changing to a single powerpc one, things did indeed
change.

 The Debian packaging name is 'ppc64' which conforms to the LSB. 
 This name is already used by dpkg, apt and many other packages.

Well, we will see.

Sven Luther

Sven, you wrote the following in that discussing on debian-devel
(see http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2005/03/msg01828.html).

Sven Luther wrote:
 Notice that ppc64 is what is widely known in the outside world on anyone
 working with 64bit powerpc, that both the kernel and the toolchain use 
 it, that all the documentation referent to it uses ppc64 and that the 
 other distributions doin 64bit powerpc (gento, suze and redhat) use it 
 too, as well as all cross toolchain out there.

 Will we want to do something different as pure dogma, despite the cost
 involved ? 

The only voice against 'ppc64' in that discussion was from the
dpkg maintainer Scott James Remnant.

And yes, it was decided to use the name 'ppc64'. Following that
decision, this name was used by 'dpkg', 'apt', 'gcc-4.0' and
a lot of other packages.

Sven, please do not work against the ppc64 port by confusing people.

Andreas Jochens
