[Fink-devel] No longer maintaining fink packages assigned to me

2006-11-07 Thread Daniel Henninger
I just realized I never sent out an official announcement about this, but I am not maintaining any of the fink packages assigned to me anymore. I do not have any of the fink tree set up on my machine at the moment, otherwise I would go ahead and change the maintainer of my packages to none. (I do

[Fink-devel] Policy question

2005-01-30 Thread Daniel Henninger
Is this not against fink policy? DescPackaging: << Don't mind the following result: $ fink -v validate xinitrc.info Warning: Patch file appears to contain a hardcoded /sw. (xinitrc.patch) You must *manually* ensure the prefix cleanness. << There are always sed-based methods to automate setting up

2005-01-29 Thread Daniel Henninger
Was a decision ever made about the JSR1.4 package? It still requires you to download the source yourself and toss it into /sw/src. Judging from the comments, this is against policy. Does the package submission need to be rejected or is there still some grey area about it? Daniel -- "The most

[Fink-devel] Package Description length

2005-01-24 Thread Daniel Henninger
I was just wondering... why is the package description warning length different for -v validate than it is without -v? It doesn't seem like -v is meant to be "more restrictive", but..? On a related note, I let a package on through because it had a fine length under validate, but it was complained

Folk, I'm having troubles figuring out how to set up a fink package exactly. I'm quite familiar with RPMs and fink's package files definitely seem similar, but what I'm not sure of is how to test-build a package outside of the tree... or is that not possible? I'm getting the impression that all

Howdy folk, I just noticed that y'all have quite a few packages without a maintainer. I'd be willing to look into maintaining some of them, but also I'd like to see about putting together a package for my own jabber client. What do I need to do to get involved, so to speak? Thanks!! Daniel --
