Re: Autotools modernization in GNOME
Hello Robert, On Wed, Jan 27, 2010 at 7:21 PM, Robert Ancell robert.anc...@gmail.comwrote: snip - Patches that modify configure.ac or Makefile.am(s) - we then need a second patch to update configure and Makefile(s). Ideally we'd like to regenerate these before each package build but autotools version mismatches tend to stop this from working reliably. I don't know if there is a good solution for autotools though. A lot of developers do regenerate these files reliably by running ./autogen.sh or autoreconf or CDBS autotools magic in debian/rules. I personally think its silly to patch a file like configure.ac or Makefile.am if you're not going to regenerate the autotool files as it effectively makes your patch to those files pointless. Its also painful to patch the autogenerated autotool files themselves as you need to refresh the patches every time those files get regenerated making it more painful if you want to do a quick build of say simple-scan from trunk. ;) Cheers, -- Cody A.W.

I have asked the desktop team to start preparing these changes to make them available in Lucid as soon as reasonably possible. Probably on the order of weeks. I have a thought, does changing this default setting in Firefox break Mozilla's branding rules? I assume that the lawyers have gone over it already, but you know what Mozilla are like for trying to make sure that Firefox is exactly the same as the one their release. Another good question. The answer is no. I don't know if lawyers went over it, but as I said in a previous response, we work with the Mozilla team, and this was discussed with them, they were not surprised. We would not do something to Firefox that would violate Mozilla's rules, and we for sure wouldn't make a change like this without discussing with them first. In sum don't worry, all is fine with our relationship with Mozilla ;) Cheers, Rick -- ubuntu-desktop mailing list ubuntu-desktop@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-desktop
