[Fink-devel] Validation of splitoffs failed. -- what is this?
I'm getting a bunch of Validation of splitoffs failed. errors while building, even though fink validate for those packages passes. What is this error supposed to represent? -- Benjamin Reed a.k.a.

Build/installation statistics. Every time I open pine for the first time on a computer, it asks me if I would like to provide (anonymous) feedback to the maintainers. I think it would be great if fink.conf allowed for auto-feedback that could be stored somewhere on fink.sourceforge.net (or on the wiki) that would show successful/unsuccessful builds (and/or usage). I reckon it might need to account for revisions The best I can currently manage is to post my currently installed for anyone interested.

David R. Morrison wrote: Just perusing the code... are you also getting a warning about a BuildDependsOnly violation or an Obsolete violation? Nope, all I got was 10 copies of the Validation of splitoffs failed. error, and then I ran a fink validate on the stuff I was building, and got no errors. I just tried building one of the packages again and haven't gotten the error, though, so I'm not sure what was triggering it.

Rather than wrapping the binaries, we could settle for determining how recently a given binary has been used (this is what the Debian popcon package does). In addition to submitting binary package statistics to their server, the popcon package helps the user prune old packages by determining which packages are unused (based on stat() atime) and sorting the unused package list by largest first. This usage check is probably best scheduled as a background job, and statistics could be pushed to a server at selfupdate time. Since Fink has a somewhat different set of usage statistics to collect, it might be better just to borrow some ideas from popcon, and write the rest into the fink perl code. That way, there is no need to keep the popcon list of distributions in sync with the main fink codebase, etc. I would be willing to take a closer look at this, if someone else who is more familiar with the internals of fink could point me towards the right places to hook into the selfupdate routine and so forth. -- - Charles Lepple - Take Surveys.

Cool! I think the simplest implementation would be to send a successful build or install message to the maintainer so at least *they* would know that the package is working (and for how many people); unfortunately this may be too burdensome for our volunteer maintainers. Perhaps a dedicated recipient address could be used to store/sort/extract the data I think transmitting the user's architecture/environment would be an important part. (I guess spam and false reports would have to be filtered) Even something as crude as sending the info to [EMAIL PROTECTED] could be useful if the package, version, and tree were in the subject. It is intended to help in the area of moving things from unstable to stable which is clearly a goal of the project. /preaching to the choir - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

I think the simplest implementation would be to send a successful build or install message to the maintainer Last time that I remember this being discussed on IRC, though (in the context of popcon, which used to only submit its usage stats via email), we came to the conclusion that it is difficult to automate sending messages since Mac OS X (client) does not have a SMTP server configured. You would have to go through the system-selected mail client, which is a bit of a pain from a script. from what I understand, popcon has an HTTP interface now, so it might be a bit more doable. Sure, we won't get everyone, but it will get enough to get a good sample of users. -- Benjamin Reed a.k.a. Ranger Rick Fink, KDE, and Mac OS X development http://www.racoonfink.com/ - Take Surveys.

gnupg2 can be installed in parallel to the old gnupg 1.4.5 package.
Anyone interested in putting those packages into unstable?
I've put the updated libgpg-error in.
Thank you for doing the leg-work.
If Benjamin doesn't want to maintain gnupg2, I'd be glad to give it a go.
