Re: [Fink-devel] Update to your Fink package cscope
Hanspeter, I'll try to attend to this tonight. I must first obtain a Mac with OS X 10.7. It has been some time since I've worked with Fink, so this may not go smoothly.

Re: [Fink-devel] fink run *not* as root
Suppose fink packages optionally use fields 'BuildRequiresRoot' or 'InstallRequiresRoot'? Then fink could choose to require running as root, and inform the user at the start when building / installing a package requires root privs. (Depend checks would determine whether any depends require root for some stage.) And if fink was originally installed as root then all packages require root privs for install. --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.

Re: [Fink-devel] fink run *not* as root
NetBSD, for example, becomes root at the install phase, requesting a password at that time, and can be rigged to use su or sudo.

RE: [Fink-devel] fink and CVS?
Or switch to the rsync update method. Download and unpack http://fink.opendarwin.org/fink/fink-0.14.0.tar.gz, then cd fink-0.14.0; sudo ./inject.pl /sw, then fink selfupdate-rsync.

The simplest thing to do is to simply add this as an alternative method. But we were just discussing on #fink a more drastic change: we could scrap anonymous cvs access altogether, and offer only two access methods, rsync or ext cvs (the latter for fink developers only). Has CVS been scrapped?

[Fink-devel] Re: Idea: embed patch in .info
Add a new optional field Patch-MD5. If this field is present then refuse to use the .patch unless its md5sum matches. If the field isn't present then always use the provided .patch. This wouldn't help you match the .patch file to the .info file, but it would prevent problems like the one you encountered. -- K On Tue, 8 Jul 2003, Daniel Macks wrote: I've just had a problem arising from having plain-name .info and .patch files. In moving some files around while trying to find at which version/revision I introduced a bug, I managed to have the wrong (out-of-sync) .patch for the .info I was using. IIRC, this type of problem was mentioned (but not resolved?) when versionless naming was discussed (which I can't find in the -devel archives right now:(, as well as the related problem of trying to have multiple versions present by renaming the .info but then having to fix Patch: for a renamed .patch. So I was thinking about a solution based on placing the contents of the patch-file at the end of the .info file itself. One file, so no sync problems. The patch manpage claims that lines of junk (i.e., all the (other) .info fields) before the actual patch data are ignored, one could just feed the whole info-file to 'patch'. A new percent-variable could give the name of the info-file, so that other fields (Patch and PatchScript) will always find the (correct) patch-containing file, even if it gets renamed. So before I go about hacking fink to support this (doesn't look that difficult), anyone else think this would be a useful functionality? dan --- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Parasoft Error proof Web apps, automate testing more.
