 Did you perform any libtool patches? This looks like it might be the
 convenience library bug.

I only added the '-flat_namespace' to the configure script.

Thanks for that, I'll try it out!





Re: [Fink-devel] Getting stack traces?

 Which is where the problems begin. No strace (nuts), ktrace needs a
 kernel recompile (of a kernel Apple haven't released the source for,
 AIUI), and gdb says 'No stack.'.
 
 Ideas?
 
 One is to use Console.app and go to its preferences, then active the
 crash reporter. Once something crashes, a crashreport (including stack
 trace will be created, and, if you checekd the option, Console.app
 will launch to show it to you.
 

 Or you can use gdb:
 
 gdb APPNAME
 
 then, in gdb, just type run (or run OPTIONA OPTIONB if you need to
 pass parameters to the programm). Once it crashes, you will drop back
 into gdb. Type bt to get a BackTrace of the stack.
 

This is the problem. Nothing seems to think that it /is/ a crash. gdb
says 'no backtrace', and crash report is very quiet, too. Hmm.

I enabled ktrace (thanks to the person who told me where the kernel
source was) but there is a good reason for it's being disabled - it
causes a kernel panic :-)

Thanks for the help,

[Fink-devel] How do I fix my package (dumb question)?

I'm the package maintainer for amaya (now in stable) but it has a
missing dependency (as someone pointed out). Erm - how do get this fix
into the distribution. I assume I have access to the package
somewhere, but I can't find out where.

I know, I'm probably stupid :-(

Re: [Fink-devel] How do I fix my package (dumb question)?

2002-05-01 Thread David R. Morrison

It's not a dumb question at all.

If you need to revise a package, and you are not a core fink developer,
please post the revised version to the package submission tracker, just
like you did with the original version.

Re: [Fink-devel] Getting patches back upstream

2002-05-01 Thread Max Horn

[...]

The first thing I have noticed is that Fink uses its own ltconfig and
ltmain.sh.

Note that these are for libtool 1.3.5, which is not anymore being 
developed. Others have replied to your request already, but nobody 
mentioned this detail :-)

Sigh.. I said we should have done a .4.0a just to fix this.

sarcasm
Oops, sorry I completely missed you volunteered to do all the release 
work, cool. Go ahead and release 0.4.0a, please. I am glad you have 
enough time to cope with all the details involved etc. Thanks for 
volunteering, I am eager to see 0.4.0a! When can we expect you to 
announce the release?
/sarcasm

Seriously, I am not a machine!
And I have no time to make yet another release so soon. It's not a 
thing you just do quickly, a full relase (even a minor one like 
this) takes a lot of time, it has to be done with great care and 
various factors have to be considered (like for example stable 
changed a lot since then. Which changes should be incorporated, which 
not?). No way that I make a new Fink release, even a minor one in 
the next few weeks.


But I do realize that it's risky if we depend too much on me for 
making releases. Not only is it a problem should I leave Fink (very 
well possible), but it's also a problem now since it taxes me a lot. 
Less so compared to when Chrisp left us, since I sat down and wrote 
some docs (based on instructions Christoph mailed me, and based on my 
own findings) for the dist tools. Dunno if anybody ever read them, so 
maybe they are crap, but since I never got feedback on them, there's 
nothing I can do about it...

So, I'd appreciate if some people would work together with me on the 
next release. I'd be willing to teach what I know about the release 
process. E.g. they could follow me doing the 0.4.1 release, and learn 
from this how to do it. Any such watcher could also try to augment 
the docs I wrote based on his learnings, filling its gaps. Note that 
you must be willing to be around for 1-2 days.

FYI, you must distinguish between preparation of the release 
(includes testing all sorts of things), the actual release, and the 
bindist update, which are really three different things, the first of 
them taking the most resources.



I figured at least one more user would hose their install. And yep.

I put a note on there saying how to get the new passwd from fink.

Thanks for this.

Re: [Fink-devel] Getting stack traces?

wrote:

 This is the problem. Nothing seems to think that it /is/ a crash. gdb
 says 'no backtrace', and crash report is very quiet, too. Hmm.

What must be happening is that Amaya sees the error, and so it just 
quietly quits without crashing. The best way to get a backtrace it to 
find where the error actually happened.

Here are a few possible ways. To use these, you'll have to know how to 
set a breakpoint in gdb: you just write break filename:1234 where 
filename is the name of a file, and 1234 is a line number, eg: break 
main.c:45. Or to break at a function, you write break functionname.

1) If there's an error string that Amaya prints when it sees your error, 
go into the build directory and search for that string in the source 
files: grep -Ir 'Some error string' . . Set a breakpoint at the line 
where it prints the error.

2) It's likely that Amaya quits by calling exit() or abort(). Try 
setting a breakpoint in these functions: break exit, break abort.

3) If it's a C++ program that uses exceptions, try and find the base 
exception class. Then set a breakpoint in the constructor of this 
exception. If you don't know what this means. If you don't know C++ (and 
Amaya is written in it), post back and I'll try and give more details.

Good luck!

[Fink-devel] notice on web page about passwd problem?

In a discussion on #fink about the passwd problem, it was suggested that
we put an announcement about the problem in the News section on Fink's
homepage.  Appended below is a diff file for the source of that page,
which would contain the announcement.  Any suggestions about the wording,
or about whether this is a good idea, would be welcome.
