[Emc-developers] GTK3
Hi, I cleaned up my gtk3 branch. master-gtk3 on the official repo is now the place to work on all gtk3 related changes. https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/pull/1164 anything python3 related shoud go in master, unless it breaks something. Please test it. Rene ___ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
[Emc-developers] linuxcnc-dev dependencies
Is there a good reason not to have all the build-time dependencies as dependencies for linuxcnc-dev? This would mean that apt-get install linuxcnc-dev would install all that is needed to run "make" -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1912 ___ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers

I would have thought that things like halcompile and python-serial would be in the "standard" package. > > -- > atp > "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is > designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and > lunatics." > — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1912 > > > ___ > Emc-developers mailing list > Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers ___ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
Re: [Emc-developers] linuxcnc-dev dependencies
Hi Andy, That's how a properly written dev package is supposed to work. linuxcnc-dev should solve all build dependencies. Some may argue disk usage, but you'd run Gentoo instead of Debian if that was your concern.

Re: [Emc-developers] linuxcnc-dev dependencies
A `-dev` package is not meant satisfy dependencies for building the packaged software, only the dependencies for other packages to build *against* the packaged software. A `foo-dev` package might correspond to a package `foo` containing a library `libfoo.so.1.2`, and the `foo-dev` package should supply the headers, `libfoo.so.1` and `libfoo.so` symlinks and any other dependencies to build against `libfoo.so`. For example, `libfoo.so.1.2` may need `flex` and `bison` to build, but other packages do not need those to build against `libfoo.so`. Of course it's *possible* to replicate a source package's `Build-Depends:` list in a binary package's `Depends:` list (`-dev` or otherwise). Since the `linuxcnc-dev` package `Depends: linuxcnc`, I'd worry about confusion created by having both an RIP build and a package install on the same machine. Surprise may result from forgetting that `$EMC_HOME` has been set or not. (Rene saw me fall for this one just in the last week!) If this really must be done, it should be a completely separate package that with no Depends: linuxcnc. Better is simply to use the means provided by Debian developers to automatically installing a source package's build dependencies; for LinuxCNC, maybe: sudo apt-get install devscripts debian/configure uspace mk-build-deps -irs sudo Or if you have the LinuxCNC apt repos configured anyway: apt-get build-dep linuxcnc John On 5/23/21 5:19 PM, andy pugh wrote: Is there a good reason not to have all the build-time dependencies as dependencies for linuxcnc-dev?
