What has their distribution method to do with it? As long as there is a tarball you can even rsync it with Fink and if you cannot i am sure there could be an effort made to add this.

Not to mention that their distribution method is rather non-standard and that will most likely lead to a very low acceptance in the OSS community. no matter how scientific the application is.

-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.

In this case you don't need a separate codeapt-get/code call anymore. /p p If you are using Fink Commander select Binary-gt;Update descriptions to update the package list, and then Binary-gt;Dist-Upgrade packages to update to new versions.

Note that if you have changed or added to files in the stable or unstable trees, using rsync will delete them. Make a backup first. emcvs/em will download using anonymous or :ext: cvs access from the fink repository. This has the disadvantage that cvs can not switch mirrors, if the server is unavailable you will not be able to update. empoint/em will download only the latest released version of the packages. It is not recommended as your packages may be quite out of date. /p /li li p emUseBinaryDist:/em boolean/p p Causes fink to try to download pre-compiled binary packages from the binary distribution if available and if the binary package is not already on the system. This can save a lot of installation time and it is therefore recommended to set this option. Passing fink the xref chapter=usage--use-binary-dist option/xref has the same effect, but only operates on that single fink invocation. emOnly available in fink newer than version 0.23.0/em. /p /li 1119a1182,1208 section name=options titleGlobal options/title p There are some options, which apply to all fink fink commands. If you type codefink --help/code you get the list of options: /p codeblock -h, --help- display this help text -q, --quiet - causes fink to be less verbose, opposite of --verbose -V, --version - display version information -v, --verbose - causes fink to be more verbose, opposite of --quiet -y, --yes - assume default answer for all interactive questions -b, --use-binary-dist - download pre-compiled packages from the binary distribution if available /codeblock p Most of these options are self-explanatory. They can also be set in the xref chapter=confFink configuration file/xref (fink.conf) if you want to set them permanently and not just for that invocation of codefink/code. /p p The code--use-binary-dist/code option causes codefink/code to try to download pre-compiled binary packages from the binary distribution if available and if the binary package is not already on the system.

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: RIPEMD160 Michael G Schwern said the following on 10/30/03 2:36 AM: snip I'd like to keep going, but there's been no motion on any of the above. So... are you folks interested in testing and documenting Fink::*? Would you like me to continue? Hello Mister Schwern, my name is david Höhn (net alias Darian Lanx) and I am somewhat looking after the administrativa for Fink. I would be very glad to have you on board, since documentation and proper testing of the actual fink engine is something that we badly lack. There has been some great efforts by Mister Hansen and Mister Fujinaka to keep the man-pages and User documentation as well as the FAQ up-to date, yet the developer documentation for the code that fink intself user is nearly non existant. If you would like to continue this important work, I would be more than happy to setup a roadmap of your goals and sync them with the Fink team, being your proxy. As Mister Reed said, we are very interested in additional patches to further improve fink and I am sure that you could be added to the development team as soon as the main developers know how you work and how you could improve Fink as a whole. On a related note: how important is backwards compatibility? Some of the Fink::* function interfaces are a bit wonky and could do with some fixing. For example, the tendency for classes to export functions. Lots of exported global variables where class methods should be used. Exported global variables not being distinguished from local variables with $Uppercase. Inconsistent method names (new_with_* vs new_from_*). All basic stuff. According to some including perl guru Mister Schwartz the classes and their model could use some work. Maybe even redoing them with something like Class::MethodMaker. If you feel, that you have the time to improve the handling of that and thus improve fin itself, please do so. Are you worried someone other than fink is using this code and do you care? I would say, that this is not really a concern we are currently looking at, yet it is important, especially to me, that we keeo the documentation availaible that someone COULD do so if they wanted to. Can I go ahead and supply patches that will improve and change the module interface? As I said above, yes of course. According to some it is bitterly needed. Furthermore the Dependency enhone seems to need a reqrite, yet no one is willing to touch it. Do you want to ?

Thank you for mentioning it, but please do CC me a direct mail whenever you find something to be wrong with the docs. Sometimes I might not catch a mail from the mailing lists, especially when I am on holidays. I will see to it, that I can at least alter the fink --help output to reflect this as soon as the holidays are over. - your friendly docs maintainer --- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf ___ Fink-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
