[Fink-devel] Re: [Fink-users] Unison 2.10.2 on 10.3 broken?

Cheers, Ben Ben, (et al.): I'm going to check out the Panther compatibility and will advise whether the package works or not. 10.2 is at end-of-life, so no packages will be added to that tree. If somebody who still has a 10.2 system wants to play around with it, they certainly may (I don't have a 10.2 environment available). And at minimum, there needs to be a note in the description regarding the install command-line tool command for the Aqua app, since that plunks a unision executable in /usr/bin. It would be better to disable that feature, of course. -- Alexander K.

Re: [Fink-devel] new gettext and libiconv
I want --enable-extra-encodings. I have updated the gettext and libiconv packages: the new versions are currently in experimental/dmrrsn/base if anybody would like to help test. For gettext, in addition to bringing the program to the latest version, the division into splitoffs has been refactored to more closely match the packaging advice given by the upstream authors. One effect of this is that libgettext3 can be built without having the expat library installed, which will improve bootstrapping once libgettext3 moves into the list of essential packages. The libraries which depend on expat are now in the libgettextpo2-shlibs package (a splitoff of the new gettext-tools package). For libiconv, we now build a private copy of gettext during the compilation of libiconv. This should, at long last, solve the problems people have had with building or rebuilding libiconv when the wrong combination of libiconv-dev, gettext-dev, and libgettext3- dev were present. I will move these to unstable rather soon; any testing reports would be appreciated. --- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects Teams * Testing QA Security * Process Improvement Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf ___ Fink-devel mailing list Fink-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel

Re: [Fink-devel] new gettext and libiconv
I want --enable-extra-encodings. Can you explain this, please? I do not understand your request. The libiconv supports some extra encodings which are disabled by default. The /usr/lib/libiconv.2.2.0.dylib is configured with --enable-extra-encodings, but the /sw/lib/libiconv.2.2.0.dylib is not. I need the encodings to process some Japanese texts. --- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects Teams * Testing QA Security * Process Improvement Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf ___ Fink-devel mailing list Fink-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
