Comment on attachment 355220 [details, diff] squashfs-tools-4.2_p20130321.ebuild.patch That's not going to happen. What would probably work quite well is gather up the patches they introduced there and see what we need (look at bug #427356 for instance). Since apperantly you already have contact with upstream: I'd suggest to convince him to tag "stable" releases: This way stable tarballs (with fixed checksum) could be downloaded. And upstream isn't dead - [1] has seen recent work so maybe we can cherry-pick what we need for the remaining open bugs and go to stable with that soonish. [1] http://sourceforge.net/p/squashfs/code/ci/master/tree/squashfs-tools/ But isn't the kernel.org git the real upstream ? https://git.kernel.org/cgit/fs/squashfs/squashfs-tools.git/tree/squashfs-tools?h=stable This seems to be better maintained. Phillip Lougher marks there from time to time "stable" . But yet I don't know if this is meant as a release? --- printf("unsquashfs version 4.2-git-stable (2013/06/21)\n");\ --- git checkout stable gave me a new release: 4.2_p20130621 (In reply to Martin Väth from comment #2) > Since apperantly you already have contact with upstream: > I'd suggest to convince him to tag "stable" releases: > This way stable tarballs (with fixed checksum) could be downloaded. This is done upstream at the new git home of my Comment4 and it successfully built: --- # mksquashfs -version mksquashfs version 4.2-git-stable (2013/06/21) copyright (C) 2013 Phillip Lougher <phillip@squashfs.org.uk> This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Founda.... --- +*squashfs-tools-4.3_pre20130621 (21 Jan 2014) + + 21 Jan 2014; Justin Lecher <jlec@gentoo.org> + +squashfs-tools-4.3_pre20130621.ebuild, metadata.xml: + Version bump, following Fedora, #479904 + |
