[Fink-devel] Python documentation
Hi, I have noticed that currently no documentation is installed with python23 package. The Doc/ directory of the python distribution is simply copied to /sw/share/doc/python, one can build it using the Makefile in this directory. It is not straightforward however, since one of the include file is missing, and some additional packages are needed to build the documentation (e.g. perl, tetex, latex2html, etc.) I was thinking of providing a package which build and install the python documentation. This may come as a splitoff of python23 package, or as a different package. I see a difficulty: python documentation is available in many formats: html, ps, pdf, info, and for the paper versions in a4 and letter format. How can this be handled ? Of course we could build and install the documentation in all formats, but this would use quite a lot of space. We could also provide splitoffs or variants of the packages for the different formats or provide only some of them. As an example, Debian provides a python-doc package containing the html and info documentations. Please let me know what you think.

Can someone tell me why .info files get committed that are pointing at sources that are nowhere to be found on the net, or at least not at the places in the mirror list? When something gets committed to fink stable or unstable, the mirror scripts download everything (I don't know how often). Until then, there are no mirror files, only the original source files. So if you're set to go to distfiles, it will fail. If you mean a specific (non-fink-distfiles) mirror doesn't have stuff, please let us know and we'll removed it from the mirror choices.

[Fink-devel] Dear Maintainers/Users. I need your help.
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: RIPEMD160 Greetings Community. First of all, thank you for using Fink and supporting us. I have thought a very long time about our process of support. I think Fink can help the community to streamline this process in a better way. I would like to propose a way how our Maintainers and thus the users, can enjoy an even better "Fink experience". This involves testing some setup and a specific idea I had. While most things in my head seem to be brilliant ideas, the reality often proves me wrong. I would need aroun 20 to 25 people to test this idea with. For now in private. Basically It involves testing a special ticketing system including a specific setup I have been thinking about. This would be especially helpful for Maintainers, it aims to take the burden of taken care of support requests off their shoulders, collecting them in a central place where they will be stored and managed. This setup would hold all support request in trust for the participating maintainers. The main goal I am trying to achieve is to present a proven way how we can improve our support at the end of this "test run". If you are a package maintainer (that is prefered) or an interested power user that sends lots of "support" requests, please get back to me _off_ list and ask to be included in this test run. Thank you very much. - -d PS: THis is a CROSS-POST do _not_ reply to all lists. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (Darwin) iD8DBQFBd4BYPMoaMn4kKR4RA9iEAJ49qWT4r4lbgukhpJCJoyLQf+FyyQCfZKGn bJVz0guVYp6UWAa2cchL1HE= =5NoV -END PGP SIGNATURE- --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?

[Fink-devel] ec-fonts-mftraced dependency
Hi, Shouldn't the ec-fonts-mftraced package depend on system-tetex ? When I try to install lilypond-unstable, fink installs ec-fonts-mftraced before system-tetex, which makes system-tetex fails (because ec-fonts-mftraced did install things in texmf.local or something). Therefore, I think that system-tetex should be installed *before* ec-fonts-mftraced, which can be achieved by making ec-fonts-mftraced depend on system-tetex. (or tetex-base). -- R: Parce que ça renverse bêtement l'ordre naturel de lecture! Q: Mais pourquoi citer en fin d'article est-il si effroyable?
