Re: Broken packages in Extras repository
Then there is python-numpy, which seems to be completely unfunctional. import numpy fails after installing it. After installing mypaint numpy seems to work, so python-numpy has broken dependencies. its dependencies libblas3gf and liblapack3gf were broken (due to a bug in fort77). There is a workaround in mypaint. The latest versions in testing should be fine. Thank you for your effort. Now we should get python-numpy to Extras repository. It will not happen through normal testing queue because there are no applications directly depending on it in the queue. Is there way to get it promoted or do we have to wait indefinite time to get 10 votes at http://maemo.org/packages/package_instance/view/fremantle_extras-devel_free_armel/python-numpy/1.4.0-1maemo4/ ? May I remind that all pygame application are broken because of this. Regarding libsdl-ttf2.0-0 problem, I think that best way would be to recompile all packages depending on it, bump the version number and put to Extras. Currently packages depending on libsdl-ttf2.0-0 are blocked from being promoted, which is fine, but that implies that there is something being done about this. That of course makes me curious of what is it? -- Mikko Vartiainen -- View this message in context: http://maemo-community-mailing-lists.2589537.n2.nabble.com/Broken-packages-in-Extras-repository-tp5498524p5535035.html Sent from the maemo-developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

May I remind that all pygame application are broken because of this. I will talk to Niels - the need for a fast-track promotion in case of serious breakage or security issues has been noted and even agreed upon, but we never got around to define the actual procedure. For now we only have the deus ex machina kind of solution, so that's what's going to happen here, too.

That of course makes me curious of what is it? We got the ball rolling with the people in charge and hopefully the solution will be in place soon.

Re: Broken packages in Extras repository
I confirm some still have problem running Vectormine which depends on pygame, which depends on numpy which depends on libsdl-ttf2 :) 2010/9/4 Mikko Vartiainen mvartiai...@gmail.com: On Sat, Sep 4, 2010 at 6:07 PM, Attila Csipa ma...@csipa.in.rs wrote: Unless I'm grossly mistaken, that does not solve the problem.

2010/9/5 Benoît HERVIER kher...@khertan.net I confirm some still have problem running Vectormine which depends on pygame, which depends on numpy which depends on libsdl-ttf2 :) Libsdl-ttf2, the root of all evil :) Anyway, as said, will poke some people so we have the issue resolved one way or the other (I agree that the status quo is detrimental to the integrity of Extras in this case).

Broken packages in Extras repository
There are some broken packages in Extras repository which which are preventing some applications from working. First there is issue libsdl-ttf2.0-0 vs. libsdl-ttf2.0 packages. At some point Nokia has included libsdl-ttf2.0 package in SDK and their repositories while Extras already had libsdl-ttf2.0-0 (which I believe to be the correct name because it is used in Debian). These packages are of course conflicting and older packages depend on Extras package and newer on Nokia package. Attila Csipa handled this issue in earlier mail. Extras maintainer has updated his package to a dummy package which depends on Nokia package which fixes the problem. Updated package is found only from extras-devel and it's not going to promoted to Extras with normal procedures in near future so somebody who can should go and promote it.. Then there is python-numpy, which seems to be completely unfunctional. import numpy fails after installing it. After installing mypaint numpy seems to work, so python-numpy has broken dependencies. Unfortunately there is updated python-pygame which uses numpy. So import pygame fails too, which breaks all pygame applications (if mypaint is not installed). Pygame automatically tries to use numpy, if it's installed. To fix this situation I think somebody should fix numpy package and fast track promote it to Extras. These packages have been broken for months according to time stamps in packages interface. These fixes would only help those who already haven't installed broken packages, rest of the users would need to first remove some applications and then reinstall them. ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
