Writing that up would be a great idea -- for two reasons: 1) Those of us with some time could assist with checking submitted packages. 2) Those of us who submit packages could use the document to do our own checking -- thus leading, with a little luck, to better initial submissions.

This is s true. How many times does a user say they see a package in the PDB but they can't install it (because it's in a different tree)? If the user could choose the target tree, then choosing unstable should be one of the more obvious 'toggles' as it were. > Thanks for all your pdb work! > Dave - SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.

[Fink-devel] final octave packaging
It appears that the Apple c++ compiler on Intel has a bug which causes the ov_fcn_handle.cc test case to segfault in octave. Likewise the FSF g++ compiler from gcc42 causes the test_sparse.m testcase to segfault on powerpc. The gcc43 snapshot compiler doesn't have this problem. For now, the best approach is just to fork the build. On i386, the build of octave is done with only the gcc42 compilers. On powerpc, only the gfortran compiler is used from gcc42. This produces very good make check results... powerpc Summary: PASS 3762 FAIL 8 i386 Summary: PASS 3763 FAIL 7 I have uploaded this updated packaging to the fink tracking entry... http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1844593&group_id=17203&atid=414256 Jack - SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.

Change the sed to match ${_S_}nmedit instead of ~nmedit and it should have some effect on the link line. The symbols that are private extern should still be available to all the objects in the library itself, so returning the address of osx_about should work.
