Reassigning... PPC team feel free to stable, fine with me. Ran into a problem with geda -- it is trying to clobber the toplevel info file /usr/share/info/dir. That seems like a file collision that should be fixed before stabling it. Tim: the collision was caused by files installed into /usr/info instead of /usr/share/info -- prepinfo tries to clean out /usr/share/info/dir, and /usr/info/dir slips through. Probably portage will regenerate /usr/share/info/dir afterwards if I turn off collision-protect, but it would be cleaner to have geda install into the right directories. I'm testing a one-line patch that should work, will attach it for you to look at if it seems ok Created attachment 78691 [details, diff]
standardize paths for man and info files
fix infodir: /usr/info ==> /usr/share/info
fix mandir: /usr/man ==> /usr/share/man
Wormo - looks good and thanks for the patch. Feel free to commit it along with the PPC flaggage. geda and libs stable on ppc Tim, do you have any files I could use to test gtkwave, since Eric was unable to put it through its paces? I'm still having problems testing gtkwave -- installed freehdl which seems to be the only vhdl simulator in portage, ran a couple of examples to create .vcd files, and found gtkwave does not like them (it won't read in any of the signals but time): GTKWave Analyzer v1.3.72 (w)1999-2005 BSI Near byte 0, Malformed VCD identifier Near byte 0, Malformed VCD identifier Near byte 0, Malformed VCD identifier Near byte 0, Malformed VCD identifier [680] start time. [7350] end time. Warning: encountered 4 glitches across 4 glitch regions. Plasmaroo: any suggestions on generating valid files to test with? Wormo -- you'll find a sample VCD file in ftp://ftp.cs.man.ac.uk/pub/amulet/gtkwave/2.0/gtkwave-2.0.0pre5.tar.gz in the examples/ directory; let me know if there are any problems. Thanks. Thanks, that was just what I needed! gtkwave-1.3.72 stable on ppc |
