[Fink-devel] scientificpython-py vs obsolete scipy-core-py

2010-06-24 Thread Jack Howarth
Kurt, I noticed while updating relax-py for fink unstable that scientificpython-py currently depends on the obsolete scipy-core-py package. Could you update the scientificpython-py package to depend on numpy-py instead? Thanks in advance as this will allow -m builds. Jack ---

Peter, Let me refer you to a section of the Fink Packaging Manual http://www.finkproject.org/doc/packaging/policy.php?phpLang=en#sharedlibs which explains how shared libraries are packaged in fink. Basically, you need to use fink's Splitoff mechanism to divide your package into a few others.

hello fink-devel, i've successfully put together a package for libdmtx-0.7.2, but since this is the first fink package i'm attempting to contribute, i'm sure there are some problems with it. however, it did install, and it is working (for me, anyhow). the .info and the .patch file are pretty

Hi, the actual problem here are *build* dependencies most of the time. A lot of stuff pulls in insane amounts of dependencies just so that it can compile documentation of the given package, using LaTeX or DocBook... sometimees it even involves graphviz (for graphs) which then gets you an insane
