Re: [E-devel] About release, snapshots and openBSD port
If I remember back in the distant past, the number one rule for Fidonet (an early predecessor to the Internet) was - Do not offend, do not be easily offended. Both parts of that rule go hand in hand and feed on each other. Both are equally important. You can't help but offend those that are easily offended, they make it really hard to not offend them. All you can do is don't try to offend those that are not easily offended. On the other hand, don't be offended by people that are not trying to offend you. Following that rule in the spirit it was intended means that only the easily offended get offended, and they are breaking the rule, so deserve what they get. I have no problem with the way raster runs his own project, and I've been around for years. -- A big old stinking pile of genius that no one wants coz there are too many silver coated monkeys in the world. signature.asc Description: PGP signature -- RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1___ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel

Is it too much for you, to be a bit polite ??? that IS WHAT I WROTE. did anyone actually read it? ok - i didn't use not good i used bad. same thing. the WORST thing i said was they have to be kicked for that - the breaking of api. that means current openbsd packages have broken api's. mayube just patch blindly might have pissed them off... but it's true - api breaks along which lots of the diffs were busy fixing up in apps and other libs were done blindly - without looking around wider at the impact that kind of thing has. the colro get patch alone is a totally wrong direction might have offended.. wow.. buy saying its the totally wrong direction?... i have a good memory of what i said.. and i have a log. point out to me where exactly i was RUDE. where i called them idiots or fools or any kind of deorgatory term. tell me where i said all their shit stinks or any such term that's what armani, and kakaroto are saying i did. i DIDNT.; read the logs. i'm not apologizing for what i didn't do. if someone takes offense at someone saying their work is bad - well too bad. that's the reality. they should grow up and accept it, or give good reasons why the evaluation was wrong. the evaluation was very specific on specific aspects of the patches. armani did make a point about the mempool stuff - i pointed out that their patches were much greater thanneeded Also, to be clear, I contact you on IRC about the private discussion I had with Jonathan, talking to you about those patches.

Re: [E-devel] About release, snapshots and openBSD port
This has not much sense, its the same a rc tarball than get it from an actual svn checkout, I say that because if there's release candidate tarballs, and something (related to how it builds) needs to be changed, no matters if previously was made a tarball or not, so it becomes to have no value at all. 2011/11/11 Iván Briano (Sachiel) sachi...@gmail.com 2011/11/11 Youness Alaoui kakar...@kakaroto.homelinux.net: On Fri, Nov 11, 2011 at 8:49 AM, Bruno Dilly bdi...@profusion.mobi wrote: On Fri, Nov 11, 2011 at 11:19 AM, Jonathan Armani d...@asystant.net wrote: Hi, On Fri, Nov 11, 2011 at 8:00 AM, Carsten Haitzler ras...@rasterman.com wrote: On Thu, 10 Nov 2011 18:18:29 +0100 (CET) Vincent Torri vto...@univ-evry.fr said: Hey I'm talking a lot with an openBSD dev, and currently it's very hard for them to follow the changes in the trunk.

It does have value. Once everything is ready for the release, you make a pre-release tarball that they can make sure it builds fine on OpenBSD. They are working on it now, but that last check is to ensure that no change at the end that they missed or didn't get to test makes the released version to break.

So you come from nowhere and make all this work looking bad, here and on irc, that's amazing. you don't have commit access. so you can't be committing. i see zero emails from you on e-devel with patches... the first i saw of any patches was when vtorri pointed me to them. no - i'm not reading every commit mail. this is the first email from you on this list... you've never poked up with a question that i have ever seen related to your patches, which definitely went off and did the wrong thing. and yes - many of the patches were bad. what made you think changing evas_object_color_get() to use unsigned char *'s instead of int *'s was good? https://github.com/jarmani/mystuff/blob/master/x11/e17/evas/patches/patch-src_lib_canvas_evas_object_main_c it looks bad. it *IS* bad. that's an instant api and abi break just on openbsd. i'm not allowed to say that that is bad? many of the patches to evas, edje, and more were to adjust for this api/abi break to a stable abi. there isn't anything there to fix in changing that. you just make sure that applications built correctly will have bugs/crashes/errors on openbsd by doing this. also patching more libs to not used chained_mempool because you disabled it in eina's build wasn't a great move. you should have kept it enabled and if you thought that it's pool allocator was just a repeat of bsd's libc one - just patched chained_mempool to straight through use bsd malloc/free. it would have been a simpler, less invasive patch. in addition you're patching configure scripts and Makefiles as opposed to their source (configure.ac, Makefile.am) which may just patch over your immediate problem, but won't work in the long run as every time you run autogen.sh you overwrite your changes. a change in autoconf or m4 macro sources can instantly nullify the patch. it also will break for releases too per new release. it's much better to identify the source in the Makefile.am or configure.ac and find out why its generating something that doesn't work for you and fix it at the source (well that or in autoconf or automake directly itself and maybe its macros and templates). i saw these and yes - i said it was bad and i wish you didn't do things like break api's on openbsd without talking to use first and at least asking why something is how it is. if they require tarballs to test and can't just run svn instead to fetch the source... i don't have the time each day to make tarballs when they can just as easily fetch from svn. it's the same work on their part. making tarballs is MORE work on our part. You missed the point, we want to be sure that the final archive will be ok. I'm not asking for snapshot on a daily basis, only some rc before the final archive. (Wait no project did alpha rc, right ?) the final archive will be what's in svn - as per make dist. make distcheck ensures that you ship what you are meant to. the rest is ensuring the source in svn has bugs fixes and documentation is up to date. there isn't an rc or alpha because there's still things to be done before that and they are being done. i was going through news files today as well as some bugfixes. Note that i discuss also with a Mageia e17 maintainer, and he told me that such snapshots will help him too. a snapshot has no more quality than an svn checkout, so other than a mental block thinking svn == totally unstable/unusable and an unwillingness to use it because of a mental block, i don't see the point. yeah a mental block, I think you don't want to know how many time I have to reroll a dist to get all working and how frustating it is. and equally having to make dist tarballs every day is frustrating, eats up time and is no better quality than an svn checkout unless it sucks up even MORE time. vincent suggested daily snapshot tarballs. i say that that is the same as svn checkout so where is the value in doing the extra work? i get the message OMG! he dissed my patches and isn't giving me what i ask for! i'm going to make an issue about it!. your patches were bad. they committed a

I don't see why you're relunctant to an automated process that requires 0s of work, except the basic shell script. But when that thread will end, the freeze period will be over... I'm not reluctant to doing that, I'm keeping this within the context of the original request. The freeze for the release ends next week, so the release will happen around that time. I don't think setting up such a system now makes sense within that context, but if it gets done for the long term it's fine. the plan was to integrate such process in ebuilder, a program written in ruby by Philippe Caseiro to compile on several hosts, with different options to configure, sending mails if something wrong happens, with beautiful html pages which shows the problems, and plenty of other stuff It's not finished. If some people know ruby and want to help, contact Philippe Vincent Vincent Vincent I agree with Sachiel and think they want some guaranteed-to-work (at least on Linux) tarballs, that they can use and assume all problems found are OpenBSD specific and not bug on the generic parts. -- RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 ___ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel -- RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 ___ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel -- RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 ___ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel -- RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 ___ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel -- RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1___ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
