[Fink-devel] Changing an email address
Hi guys, Due to some circumstances, I'm going to have to change my current email address, and will no longer be reachable at the old address. What is the process in dealing with this? I can write a script to just change my email in all of the packages I manage. Is that all I have to do? Thanks! PGP.sig Description: This is a digitally signed message part
[Fink-devel] SSL pkg description consistency
Yo folks, I would like to propose that we agree on a consistent naming convention for SSL variants of package. Let me show you an example to explain what I mean: lftp-ssl.info:Description: Sophisticated command line based FTP client (SSL) lynx-ssl-2.8.4-13.info:Description: Console based web browser (SSL-enabled) net-snmp-ssl.info:Description: SNMP tools and libraries (OpenSSL enabled) openslp-ssl-1.0.9a-1.info:Description: Open Service Location Protocol (OpenSLP), SSL enabled openslp-ssl-1.0.9a-1.info: Description: Shared Libraries for OpenSLP + SSL Support postgresql-ssl-python.info:Description: PostgreSQL Python support (with SSL) postgresql-ssl-tcl-7.2.3-3.info:Description: PostgreSQL TCL tools (with SSL support) python23-socket-ssl-2.3.1-11.info:Description: Socket plugin for python (SSL version) uw-imap-c-client-ssl.info:Description: UW IMAP C-Client Library *SSL VERSION* wget-ssl-1.8.2-2.info:Description: Automatic web site retreiver, with SSL support That's 10 different ways to say one and the same thing. Not a big problem. but I'd prefer if we could agree on a consistent scheme anyway: Consistency helps users, and it's rather to achieve for us (at least for 95% of the package; it will happen again in the future that people checking package which are not consistent with the rules, just like again and again package which do not validate warning-free get checked in; but that's something we can cope with). So, my question is, which one to pick. Personally, I prefer to put the optional stuff into parentheses. Also brevity is a boon. So I suggest the suffix (with SSL). Opinions? Comments?

[Fink-devel] permissions
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, After upgrading to the binary version of fink 0.6.1 (see below). I have strange permissions for the installed files. A user above 2000 (I forgot the exact value) and group unknown. This seems to be user drm/unknown as packed in the .deb packages (see below). Is this an error or is it by intention? What is the policy about permissions?

[Fink-devel] daemonic's future
As I am the only active developer on the daemonic project ATM, I'm about to add xinetd support to it as well as make it more start-stop daemon compatible, in this I'd like to add two things to it, #1 I'd like to make use of the debian /etc/default style options for easy options changes for startup items, #2 I'd like to add an /etc/xinetd.d directory, and daemonic will check the /etc/xinetd.conf to make sure it's added every time it's run. my questions are this, are there any objections to these? or comments/additions to it? and for the start-stop daemon functions I've been using a /tmp/.daemonic dir to store pids, I'd like to change this to only make a daemonic pid if the program it's self doesn't make one, so in the daemonic script portion of the fink info file, it'll only use /tmp/.daemonic if the pidfile option isn't present. the version in my experimental dir it's 100% yet but it does enable start,stop,restart and has a more complete startup script system. Please try them and let me know how they work. examples: sudo daemonic start daemon or sudo daemonic stop daemon --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.

[Fink-devel] Installing qt3
I'm trying to install qt3 on Panther. I just installed the latest fink. I first installed qt3 via apt-get. however the binaries apparently were link against fink's freetype2 not Apple's. Designer works only if I set DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH to /sw/lib. In addition I can not get my program which uses qt3-shlibs to link correctly. I then tried to install from source (both 10.3/unstable and 10.3/stable). After a long time the compilation fails on ld: warning -dylib_install_name /sw/lib/libdesignercore.1.dylib not found in segment address table LD_SEG_ADDR_TABLE /sw/var/lib/fink/prebound/seg_addr_table ld: warning prebinding disabled because of undefined symbols ld: Undefined symbols: qInitImages_designercore() /usr/bin/libtool: internal link edit command failed make[3]: *** [../../../lib/libdesignercore.1.0.0.dylib] Error 1 make[2]: *** [sub-designer] Error 2 make[1]: *** [sub-designer] Error 2 make: *** [sub-tools] Error 2 ### execution of /var/tmp/tmp.2.uFFdiS failed, exit code 2 Failed: compiling qt3-3.2.2-11 failed The strange thing is that qInitImages_designercore() is not defined anywhere in the qt source tree Any help will be appreciated.
