107435 2005-09-27 12:32 0000 ebuild for automake-1.9.6 with new patch 2005-09-29 01:48:16 0000 1 1 1 Unclassified Gentoo Linux Ebuilds unspecified All Linux RESOLVED FIXED P2 enhancement --- 1 gentoo@technoplaza.net base-system@gentoo.org gentoo@technoplaza.net 2005-09-27 12:32:53 0000 automake has a bug where suffix rules aren't applied on a directory level correctly. For example: if WINDOWS mpg_SOURCES += res/windows.rc endif .rc.o: windres @WX_INCLUDES@ -o $@ $< Assuming you were on Windows (and don't let that throw you, it's just an example, the program occurs on Linux, too), it will compile and put the windows.o file in the res directory properly, but when linking, it will look for windows.o, not res/windows.o like it should. Discussions on the automake list produced a patch for CVS automake, which I converted to automake 1.9.6. I'm hoping we can add this patch to the portage ebuild. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. gentoo@technoplaza.net 2005-09-27 12:33:38 0000 Created an attachment (id=69369) patch to fix automake behaviour gentoo@technoplaza.net 2005-09-27 12:34:05 0000 Created an attachment (id=69370) new ebuild with the patch gentoo@technoplaza.net 2005-09-27 12:35:48 0000 where I said 'program occurs on Linux, too, I meant 'problem'. vapier@gentoo.org 2005-09-27 12:38:26 0000 just so we're clear ... this patch is a backport of a fix from automake cvs for automake 1.9.6 ? gentoo@technoplaza.net 2005-09-27 18:48:11 0000 No. It is a patch that was created by a user on the automake mailing list. I have no idea if he (Stepan Kasal) is part of the development team or not. This is what he told me "Hello, On Tue, Sep 27, 2005 at 05:23:43AM -0500, John Ratliff wrote: > I tested it in Linux with automake 1.9.6 and it still doesn't work. indeed, I previously did some quick testing with rule .list-> .c, and it worked. But for rules .foo -> .o it really doesn't work. I wrote a patch which fixes this. It applies to CVS version, but also to 1.9.6, so you don't need to install the CVS versions. Actually, I guess that you can directly patch /usr/bin/automake. Please find the patch attached to this mail. (I haven't ran "make check" with it, sorry.) Does this work for you?" The patch he gave me would not patch for automake 1.9.6 because of new things in automake CVS HEAD. So I put his changes (derived from his patch) into automake 1.9.6 and created the patch I submitted against automake 1.9.6. Originally, he wanted to know if I could test it in automake CVS, which is how that got into the discussion. But no, this is a patch for automake 1.9.6. that would also happen to be applicable to automake CVS. I hope he will send his patch upstream, but until (and if) he does, the patch only exists on the mailing list, and then the one I submitted here. vapier@gentoo.org 2005-09-27 18:54:29 0000 well, if it's on the automake devel list, that is upstream :) can you provide URL's for the relevant discussions please ? gentoo@technoplaza.net 2005-09-27 23:03:15 0000 Sure. http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2005-09/msg00088.html vapier@gentoo.org 2005-09-29 01:48:16 0000 in 1.9.6-r1 69369 2005-09-27 12:33 0000 patch to fix automake behaviour automake-1.9.6-suffix-rules.patch text/plain ZGlmZiAtdXIgYXV0b21ha2UtMS45LjZfb3JpZy9hdXRvbWFrZS5pbiBhdXRvbWFrZS0xLjkuNi9h dXRvbWFrZS5pbgotLS0gYXV0b21ha2UtMS45LjZfb3JpZy9hdXRvbWFrZS5pbgkyMDA1LTA2LTMw IDE2OjE3OjEzLjAwMDAwMDAwMCAtMDUwMAorKysgYXV0b21ha2UtMS45LjYvYXV0b21ha2UuaW4J MjAwNS0wOS0yNyAxMzowNjoyOC4wMDAwMDAwMDAgLTA1MDAKQEAgLTE2OTAsNiArMTY5MCwxMCBA QAogICAgICAgICAgICAgIyBUaGlzIGlzIHByb2JhYmx5IHRoZSByZXN1bHQgb2YgYSBkaXJlY3Qg c3VmZml4IHJ1bGUuCiAgICAgICAgICAgICAjIEluIHRoaXMgY2FzZSB3ZSBqdXN0IGFjY2VwdCB0 aGUgcmV3cml0ZS4KICAgICAgICAgICAgICRvYmplY3QgPSAiJGJhc2UkZXh0ZW5zaW9uIjsKKwkg ICAgaWYgKCRkaXJlY3RvcnkgbmUgJycpCisgICAgICAgICAgICB7CisgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAg JG9iamVjdCA9ICRkaXJlY3RvcnkgLiAnLycgLiAkb2JqZWN0OworICAgICAgICAgICAgfQogICAg ICAgICAgICAgJGxpbmtlciA9ICcnOwogICAgICAgICB9CiAgICAgICAgIGVsc2UKQEAgLTE3NTks NyArMTc2Myw3IEBACiAKIAkJIyBGb3IgSmF2YSwgdGhlIHdheSB3ZSdyZSBoYW5kbGluZyBpdCBy aWdodCBub3csIGEKIAkJIyBgLi4nIGNvbXBvbmVudCBkb2Vzbid0IG1ha2Ugc2Vuc2UuCi0gICAg ICAgICAgICAgICAgaWYgKCRsYW5nLT5uYW1lIGVxICdqYXZhJyAmJiAkb2JqZWN0ID1+IC8oXC98 XilcLlwuXC8vKQorCQlpZiAoJGxhbmcgJiYgJGxhbmctPm5hbWUgZXEgJ2phdmEnICYmICRvYmpl Y3QgPX4gLyhcL3xeKVwuXC5cLy8pCiAJCSAgewogCQkgICAgZXJyX2FtICJgJGZ1bGwnIHNob3Vs ZCBub3QgY29udGFpbiBhIGAuLicgY29tcG9uZW50IjsKIAkJICB9Cg== 69370 2005-09-27 12:34 0000 new ebuild with the patch automake-1.9.6-r1.ebuild text/plain IyBDb3B5cmlnaHQgMTk5OS0yMDA1IEdlbnRvbyBGb3VuZGF0aW9uCiMgRGlzdHJpYnV0ZWQgdW5k ZXIgdGhlIHRlcm1zIG9mIHRoZSBHTlUgR2VuZXJhbCBQdWJsaWMgTGljZW5zZSB2MgojICRIZWFk ZXI6IC92YXIvY3Zzcm9vdC9nZW50b28teDg2L3N5cy1kZXZlbC9hdXRvbWFrZS9hdXRvbWFrZS0x LjkuNi5lYnVpbGQsdiAxLjIgMjAwNS8wOC8yMyAyMzo1ODozOCB2YXBpZXIgRXhwICQKCmluaGVy aXQgZXV0aWxzCgpERVNDUklQVElPTj0iVXNlZCB0byBnZW5lcmF0ZSBNYWtlZmlsZS5pbiBmcm9t IE1ha2VmaWxlLmFtIgpIT01FUEFHRT0iaHR0cDovL3NvdXJjZXMucmVkaGF0LmNvbS9hdXRvbWFr ZS8iClNSQ19VUkk9Im1pcnJvcjovL2dudS8ke1BOfS8ke1B9LnRhci5iejIiCgpMSUNFTlNFPSJH UEwtMiIKU0xPVD0iJHtQVjowOjN9IgpLRVlXT1JEUz0ifng4NiIKSVVTRT0iIgoKUkRFUEVORD0i ZGV2LWxhbmcvcGVybAoJc3lzLWRldmVsL2F1dG9tYWtlLXdyYXBwZXIKCT49c3lzLWRldmVsL2F1 dG9jb25mLTIuNTktcjYKCT49c3lzLWFwcHMvdGV4aW5mby00LjcKCXN5cy1kZXZlbC9nbnVjb25m aWciCgpzcmNfdW5wYWNrKCkgewoJdW5wYWNrICR7QX0KCWNkICIke1N9IgoJc2VkIC1pIFwKCQkt ZSAiL15Ac2V0ZmlsZW5hbWUvc3xhdXRvbWFrZXxhdXRvbWFrZSR7U0xPVH18IiBcCgkJLWUgInN8 YXV0b21ha2U6IChhdXRvbWFrZSl8YXV0b21ha2UgdiR7U0xPVH06IChhdXRvbWFrZSR7U0xPVH0p fCIgXAoJCS1lICJzfGFjbG9jYWw6IChhdXRvbWFrZSl8YWNsb2NhbCB2JHtTTE9UfTogKGF1dG9t YWtlJHtTTE9UfSl8IiBcCgkJZG9jL2F1dG9tYWtlLnRleGkgfHwgZGllICJzZWQgZmFpbGVkIgoJ ZXBhdGNoICIke0ZJTEVTRElSfSIvJHtQTn0tMS45LjYtaW5mb3BhZ2UtbmFtZWNoYW5nZS5wYXRj aAoJZXBhdGNoICIke0ZJTEVTRElSfSIvJHtQTn0tMS45LjYtc3VmZml4LXJ1bGVzLnBhdGNoCgll eHBvcnQgV0FOVF9BVVRPQ09ORj0yLjUKfQoKc3JjX2luc3RhbGwoKSB7CgltYWtlIERFU1RESVI9 IiR7RH0iIGluc3RhbGwgfHwgZGllCglybSAtZiAiJHtEfSIvdXNyL2Jpbi97YWNsb2NhbCxhdXRv bWFrZX0KCglkb2RvYyBORVdTIFJFQURNRSBUSEFOS1MgVE9ETyBBVVRIT1JTIENoYW5nZUxvZwoJ ZG9pbmZvIGRvYy8qLmluZm8qCgoJIyByZW1vdmUgYWxsIGNvbmZpZy5ndWVzcyBhbmQgY29uZmln LnN1YiBmaWxlcyByZXBsYWNpbmcgdGhlbQoJIyB3L2Egc3ltbGluayB0byBhIHNwZWNpZmljIGdu dWNvbmZpZyB2ZXJzaW9uCglsb2NhbCB4PQoJZm9yIHggaW4gZ3Vlc3Mgc3ViIDsgZG8KCQlkb3N5 bSAuLi9nbnVjb25maWcvY29uZmlnLiR7eH0gL3Vzci9zaGFyZS8ke1BOfS0ke1NMT1R9L2NvbmZp Zy4ke3h9Cglkb25lCn0K
