Re: [Fink-devel] strange .tgz file doesn't pass gnutar heuristics, but can be extracted with gunzip and tar

2014-01-16 Thread Djamé Seddah
Hi,
not sure it'll help but
I've got the same behavior with the gnutar shipped with lion.

gnutar version : tar (GNU tar) 1.17

so does the fink version
tar --version: tar (GNU tar) 1.26

but the bsdtar works fine on that file

bsdtar 2.8.3 - libarchive 2.8.3

Ok, thanks that was the tip to use :)   What I don't understand is that in 
various places, mules support in xemacs is claimed
as not being robust and has been deprecated for years, but apparently it's 
working quietly. 
This was why I tried one of the latest devel version.


Thanks again,

Djamé
ps: is there a tool or something to apply the default mac os X fonts to X11's  
setting (like something that'll generate a good .Xdefaults for exemple). 
I remember that back in the gnome 1.x day there was a tool in the  control 
center which tried to make X11 apps fits better with the overall desktop theme.

[Fink-devel] is there a way to get fink's xemacs to display utf-8 ?

2012-08-27 Thread DJamé Seddah
Hi everyone,
I've tried everything I could find to get xemacs to display utf8  and so far I 
failed. I'll be really glad if someone could provide some help or a binary 
compiled with the mule option.

I even tried to compile xemacs 21.5.29 with some of Choi's patches (the author 
of the carbon version) but the compilation failed badly.
By any chance did someone manage to compile it?

I'm not very informative but as 21.5.29 is not on the fink's list, it's 
probably not the right place to issue a bug report.

[Fink-devel] list of dependencies for mc (SL) broken ?

2010-06-23 Thread DJamé Seddah
Hi list,
I just installed fink on  a brand new 10.6.4 install (using rsync,  
selfupdate, etc.)  and I wanted to install mc
(fink install mc)
and I'm astonished about the amount of stuff that seems to be needed  
for this soft: 57 pkgs, among which one can find tcl/tk, sgml*,  
libjpeg, docbook and so on...
I've installed this soft I don't know how many times on various system  
(solaris, true64, many linux) and usually it only asked for glib,  
readline, gettext, libncurse, libgz, libzip and that's it...
not this whole mess.

Is there anything broken here ?





Best,

[Fink-devel] working set of patches for xmms ?

2010-03-23 Thread Djamé Seddah
Hi everyone,
I know that xmms is not maintained by upstream anymore but I would  
like to know if anyone has a working set of patches for xmms. Right  
now it coredumps at launch.   It used to work perfectly well
on my panther G4 laptop.

Reason for this ?  i found  the sound quality of itunes to decrease  
over time and in my memories, xmms sounds a lot better so I wanted to  
try if it was still true.




Best,

Djamé

because I'm not sure it comes from fink, I have an unusual  
configuration with a lot of env variable like PERL5LIB, some perl  
modules installed in my own arch/cpan, some others in /sw/lib , some  
others in /usr/lib/perl, it's a giant mess  so in order to submitt a  
bug report I'd have to do  a clean install and retry.

so if someone does confirm this behaviour, I'd be happy to submit one  
otherwise I'll skip.

[Fink-devel] Equivalent of rpm --just-db with fink ?

2010-01-12 Thread DJamé Seddah
Hi list,

i'm trying to install  dbi-pm588-1.607-1
and whereas the fink install failed, the compilation by hand in the / 
sw/src/dbi.. directory worked perfectly well

so I' d like to do something like

fink install --just-db dbi-pm588   which would mean that only the fink  
database would get updated no the actual filesystem


is that possible with fink or do I have to use some tricky apt-get  
options but I would rather not, last time I tried to use both fink and  
apt in the same time resulted in me screwing my  panther/ppc fink  
installation

Re: [Fink-devel] Bug in in mc install (10.5) and some others

2010-01-07 Thread DJamé Seddah
Hi Augusto,

thanks for the tip, it did the trick  but one thing which is just  
killing me is why, why does fink need to recompile every single  
package I want to install now that I got it updated ?
I just cannot understand why if the bug was known, the binary  
distribution is still carrying the old fink ? Now, I have the feeling  
on being in my first gentoo week...

I know that fink is a communatary project with very few ressources and  
it has to support I don't know how many configuration so i'm not going  
to throw any stone to anyone of course, it's just that maybe things  
shouldn't be that anal when it goes when updating fink  : No, not  
everything has to be recompile because the wrapper was updated...

even the -b doesn't change anything..


Best anyway, enjoy your brasilian sun, we're freezing out here

[Fink-devel] Bug in in mc install (10.5) and some others

2010-01-06 Thread DJamé Seddah
Hi list,

I had to do a clean reinstall of my system (too bad, really) and I  
used the binary distribution 10.5 for intel

1° when mc is  installed with fink install mc
then run, it gives this answer

[dj...@djame-seddahs-mac-pro /]$ mc
dyld: Library not loaded: /sw/lib/libintl.1.dylib
   Referenced from: /sw/bin/mc
   Reason: image not found
Trace/BPT trap

quick workaround :

  sudo ln -s libintl.dylib libintl.1.dylib

in /sw/lib

that does the trick


2° I encountered the tetex bug which implies that the date has to be  
set any time before june 2009 (thank god for the list archive)



3° not related but fink commander doesn't want to take any input on  
its search field (my system is set to have the "input"  menu with the  
session open windows,that has the side effect of adding a flag icon in  
some fields, I guess this is the problem (this one is for you  
augusto :) )


4°  Perl issues  (I have another installation of perl 5.8.8 in /usr/ 
local and I guess that fink is messed up with that )
example :
$ sudo fink cleanup
Information about 2516 packages read in 0 seconds.

Anyway,  that's all I've found and I'm glad that fink still exists

Hi thanks for your answer,
so I guess that it means that the os x gcj port is not really usable  
as it  for java files ?

1)  how about compiling the C files produced by gcj  run on a linux  
machine (it's working just fine on mandriva x86_64)
2)  does it work for the class files (or compiling a jar ?)

about your ps : I think that it will be nice if gcj could behave the  
same way  regular os x gcc does :
for example being able to use -march i386 -march x86_64 -march ppc - 
march ppc64  with gcj  to generate universal binaries for example

anyway, the compilation time is awfully long on my macbook pro (2008  
with 2gig of ram), do you know where I could get some precompiled  
packages ?



Best,


Djamé

[Fink-devel] GCJ on fink and best mtune and march option

2009-11-16 Thread DJamé Seddah
Hi list,

I'm currently compiling gcj on my fink distro  (intel, 10.5) and the  
default tuning choice seems to be  -mtune=k8 -march=k8

isn't it a bit weird ? I thought that the flags of choice for core 2  
duo architectures  (mbp pro) were -mtune=nocona -march=nocona

another question : the compiling machine flag  is  -m32 does it  
mean that my gcj will only be able to generate 32 bit code or I should  
not worry and let fink handles itself ?



Btw, I also have a nehalem (8 core and intel xeon E5520), does anyone  
know what are the best compiler flag for this monster ?



Thanks for all anwsers,

Djamé

Hi,
I'm not using macport so there's nothing linked there.

But I don't get it. These are just genuine package created somewhere  
in 10.5/ hierarchy by  the command
sudo fink install soundtracker
(by the way, I can't believe that for this only apps, it required to  
recompile everything from latex to  doxygen)

Now for example I want to compile cantus (an excellent, if not the  
best, id3 tag editor) and for this  half of my packages have to be  
recompiled
to get gtkmm2.4-dev, so I propose to just upload the packages created  
by the very soft everyone's here is using and then you tell me to  
forget about
it because that needs a lot of securicy issues fixing and whatever.  
Ok, whatever. Maybe you could just trust your own soft and allow  
people to add something like
unstable/contributed_binaries and let them upload binaries because it  
will save the hassle of recompiling everything for hours. It's not  
like I don't like to  compile stuff myself, I just hate that,  
otherwise i'll be running gentoo  for the sake of checking that my gcc  
suite is working 24/24.

Thanks for the answers, I'll see if I can find a ftp somewhere and  
spread the rumour that fink binaries for leopard are available there.




Cheers,

actually, it is activated.
Here's what I have on my fink.conf.

I found it weird as well that I had to do all of this manually.

[Fink-devel] [fixed] mc 4.6.1 on 10.5.2 leopard

2008-03-24 Thread DJamé Seddah
Hi list,
coming from an upgrade from tiger 10.4.7, I followed the fink  
leopard's how-to  and I realized that mc was not working
properly  (version 4.6.0), so after having tried various combinaison  
and patches
I've found the following method

download vanilla libiconv 1.12 from gnu rep
1) ./configure --prefix=/sw ; make ; make install

strangly, this lib didn't want to install if the prefix was not /sw  
(eg. /usr/local)



download vanilla mc 4.6.1 from 
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/general/mc.html
apply  bash-3.12 patch
then
1) ./configure --prefix=/sw --without-x  --with-screen=ncurses -- 
prefix=/sw ; make ; make install

and so far, everything seems to work


what was not working

1) erratic behaviour when changing directory (eg. cannot change  
directory ;  subshell display was corrupted )
2) recompilation using fink install mc (error in linking)
all of this will be fixed if libiconv 1.12 and bash patch are applied  
and installed

[Fink-devel] xemacs compiled with Xft support ?

2008-03-05 Thread DJamé Seddah
Hi list,
Does anyone know if  it's possible to build xemacs on fink with xft  
support in order to have some sort of antialiasing ?

I grabbed the xemacs source from the fink's directory and according  
to ./configure --help it has no  --with-xft=emacs,menubar  option

i'm using fink for 10.4

Thanks



Djamé

Thanks for you long answer but I wonder how come it seems more  
feasible in the macport project ?
http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/wiki/ 
FAQ#IsMacPortsUniversal
I know that it's not possible for every package (especially for those  
who need to be bootstraped, in that case UB means basically cross  
compilation+emulation (doable on mactel not on ppc except by the mean  
of qemu so very unlikely to work flawlessly) but I would have loved  
to have a magic option :)


Thanks for your time anyway,



Djamé

[Fink-devel] An option to build universal binaries ?

2008-02-09 Thread DJamé Seddah
Hi,
I would like to know if it would be possible to use fink to build a  
whole universal binary hierarchy under /sw ?

the idea is to have a shared directory using nfs for ppc and x86
so if it exists an option to add to fink.conf, that would be nice to  
let me know


Regards,



Djamé

[Fink-devel] cdrtools on fink ?

2007-11-27 Thread DJamé Seddah
Hi list,
I can't get fink to download and install cdrtools on os X (intel,  
10.4.7, latest version of fink) even though it contains the folowing  
files
for cdrtools
/sw/fink/10.4/unstable/main/finkinfo/utils/cdrtools.info
/sw/fink/10.4/unstable/main/finkinfo/utils/cdrtools.patch

I applied the patch to the relevant tarball (2.0.1) and it doesn't  
compile.

Does someone have any clue about what happenned to the port of  
cdrtools ?


Thanks

Djamé
