Description Assaf Berg 2005-04-20 08:27:07 UTC
Nice features put into this version (including some bugs that were patched in the 0.18 ebuild)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
Comment 1 Assaf Berg 2005-04-26 06:00:41 UTC
Using the ebuild for 11.8-r1 seems to work (after commenting out all the patches), but I get compilation errors if the java, python or tcltk use flags are on.
Comment 2 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-04-26 06:23:36 UTC
0.12 is a major rewrite of the backend and lots of depending apps break because of this, most notably gnome-pilot. 
Comment 3 Assaf Berg 2005-04-26 06:36:32 UTC
So if an application that depends on it breaks with the new version is should block the upgrade, right?
Comment 4 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-04-26 08:04:50 UTC
don't understand what you're asking. but if the underlying library breaks the applications that depend on it, i don't see any reason why we should add that library.
Comment 5 Jeff Norman 2005-05-04 19:08:59 UTC
Creating symlink seems to work for me.  Ugly though.  Wish I could find where upstream this was hard coded as i386
Comment 6 Assaf Berg 2005-05-05 11:35:38 UTC
To #4, what I'm saying is, if an updated version of a library breaks a dependency it doesn't mean that you don't want it. Some people don't have that dependency installed and may still enjoy the library. If someone does have that dependency installed, portage should prevent him from upgrading (blocking).
Comment 7 Christian Schmitt 2005-05-06 04:34:10 UTC
#6, I totally agree with you. 0.12.0-pre3 is out now and the 0.12 version adds a whole new bunch of features and fixes a lot of bugs. After all, kpilot aleady has support for 0.12.0 so it should really be added into portage.
Comment 8 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-05-08 13:41:57 UTC

Comment 9 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-05-08 13:42:18 UTC
oops, wrong bug
Comment 10 Christian Schmitt 2005-07-03 15:20:08 UTC
Could someone please create an ebuild of the newest version and put it here? I
tried to to it but did not succeed. It was my first one ;-)
Thx.

pilot-link-0.12.0-pre4 Ebuild

This one is my first ebuild and its not yet perfect. But ist works here.
Comment 12 Gabriel Devenyi 2005-11-23 18:05:09 UTC
I'd also like to see this get in, also, could you please add an option, or 
dependency for libusb and the --enable-libusb configure option. 
 
For more information, please see http://pilot-link.org/README.usb

> This one is my first ebuild and its not yet perfect. But ist works here.

Thank you, I was looking for this ebuild for some time, and I wasn't able to create one by myself. Unfortunately, the emerge failed, with the error message in the bottom. Emerging without the java USE flag resolved it. "./configure --help" gave me "--with-perl=perlexec"; does that mean that "yes" or "no" isn't enough? By the way, why are perl and python commented out?

(In reply to comment #11)
> Created an attachment (id=62585) [edit]
Please add support support for libusb in the ebuild.

1. Add libusb to IUSE
2. Bellow "readline? ( sys-libs/readline )" add:
       libusb? ( dev-libs/libusb )"
(watch the quote!)
3. Before "econf ${myconf} || die" add:
       use libusb \
               && myconf="${myconf} --enable-libusb"

Comment 20 Simon Ruggier 2006-04-24 07:20:30 UTC
In bug 127233 I made a patch to fix the java bindings compile error seen in comment #13, and also ported the existing patches to the newer ebuild as needed.  Feel free to use those files, and I apologize for not adding the libusb USE flag, I'm not booted into gentoo right now, and I'm a bit busy.
Comment 21 Tobias Ussing 2006-05-09 15:51:42 UTC
Concerning post #18

dlpsh.c:(.text+0xec1): undefined reference to `readline'
dlpsh.c:(.text+0xed4): undefined reference to `add_history'

Add readline as a useflag.. The configure script (as supplied by pilot-link) is broken.. If you do ./configure it will compiles, if you do it with --with-readline=yes it will compiles, but if you do it with --with-readline=no it won't(if you check the configure output it still says "yes" for the readline checks, i think because of the no it excludes some includes needed to compile it).

The ebuild adds a --with-readline=no unless you add readline as a useflag.

Comment 22 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-07-20 03:56:10 UTC
Just a note, right on pilot-link.org's homepage is a message from the maintainers asking people not to package 0.12 for their distros. Until they say it is ok, I'm not going to look into adding this into portage.  But I'm happy for this to live in an overlay for people to test so we can be ready when the ban on packaging is lifted. Also note that gnome-pilot will require 2.0.14 to be released proper before pilot-link-0.12 goes in.
Comment 23 Gabriel Devenyi 2006-08-23 18:12:27 UTC

0.12.1 ebuild

Managed to get my system to have 0.12.1 pilot-link with this ebuild, but having java use flag causes a protection alarm on install:
ACCESS DENIED  open_wr:   /etc/java-config-2/current-system-vm/jre/lib/amd64/libjpisock.so

Works for me without having USE flags java nor tcltk turned on. tcltk USE flag causes the compile to fail when compiling tcl bits.

I will be happy to improve the ebuild if so desired as I really could use a working sync for my Palm TX. :)

The ebuild works here on ~amd64 with the following flags:

(tested with jpilot-0.99.9)

(In reply to comment #23)
> Anyone got libusb mode to actually work? Seems to hang every time for me.

Yes.  Libusb works well for me on amd64.  I modified the 0.12.1 ebuild attachment (dated 2006-09-21) as follows:

local myconf="--enable-libusb --enable-conduits --includedir=/usr/include/libpisock"

I had to copy /usr/share/pilot-link/udev/60-libpisock.rules to /etc/udev/rules.d. Perhaps this should be done by the ebuild.  Finally since this udev rules file created the devices files with group id dialout, I added my user to the "dialout" group. Should the udev rules file  use another group?  After logging out and back in again I could access the Tungsten E using the port "usb:".

> I am getting a sandbox violation when using this ebuild
I fixed that, and did some more changes (compared to the 0.11.8 ebuild, which is more or less equal to the one attached here so far):
* version bump
* support separate tcl/tk use flags instead of the deprecated tcltk one
  (TODO: not tested yet, as I do not like/use TCL)
* repair python support (patch sent to upstream authors)
* fix sandboxed Java install
* fix sandboxed Python install
* remove netsync patch (came from upstream, assume it was included long ago)
* remove M4 patch (included upstream, checked)
* added --enable-conduits for building userland tools
* added "usb" use flag for --enable-libusb
* TODO: install udev rules (with proper gid, see comment #30)?

Evolution doesn't compile against pilot-link-0.12.* without a patch. I found a patch in the gnome bugzilla to update the evolution conduits.

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=78892&action=view

This applies cleanly against evolution-2.8.3, and appears to work fine, for those who might be interested.

Just a note that pilot-link-0.12.2 + libmal-0.44 appear to work just fine with jpilot-0.99.9 (also not in the portage tree although released on 8/27/06).

WIth the newer pilot-link a friend can now sync his Palm m515, previously he couldn't.

Strange, since pilot-link isn't a depend or an rdepend for evince.
As far as I can tell the two packages should have nothing to do with each other. But I'm not a developer, was just trying to help out a friend who needed to sync his palm. Most of the real work here was done by Hans Meine, finding/creating/etc. the patches and getting them to upstream.

The ebuilds work for me and others but it's one of those YMMV stories.

BTW evince fails here as well - it's not just a one off, but I don't use it so as a non-dev there is little I can do to help.

And since the devs haven't put this stuff in portage yet, there isn't much avenue for a real bug report. My feeling is that it's an ebuild bug, but also the evince version in the portage tree is old as 0.8.0 is out and only 0.6.1 is offered in portage. File a version bump bug, and maybe it will all work.

Chris

Actually, app-text/evince-0.6.1-r2 installs just fine now. I forgot I had been testing it renamed to app-text/evince-0.8.0 which apparently wont work without some patches.

Works the same. It's a flexible naming convention that's probably more useful for gentoo specific patches that might change slightly with each package version. This patch is not gentoo specific, it's from upstream, and we probably wont need it again for the next release.

It's GPL, write it however you like.

Comment 59 Jukka Palko 2007-03-25 05:44:45 UTC
Okay, I'm just curious of gentoo ebuild writing "standards" and "policies". Best distro around and I'd like to be able to contribute into it in "the proper way". 

It's described in a way on gentoo developer info pages, but real life ebuilds teach much more than those definitions that are clear to people already involved in contributiog.

It's nice that you're helping out and all, but don't be rude, all he did was ask if a change made sense, I wouldn't call that starting a pissing contest.

With regards to the question, think about what would happen if you renamed the ebuild file to build a newer version of pilot-link.  If the name and version are hard coded, then that line will still attempt to apply the patch to the newer version of the source code, whereas if you have $(P) in there, you'll have to copy the patch file, or delete that epatch line.  It's not a big difference, but it doesn't make sense to put $(P) in on that line.
Comment 63 Jukka Palko 2007-03-27 10:10:26 UTC
Anyway, the 0.12.2 + the m4 patch confirmed to work nicely on my machine as well.
Comment 64 Carsten Lohrke (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-04-06 09:38:51 UTC
Alastair, it's time to do something about this bug. The KPilot version which is blocked atm. fixes quite some bugs. And if I read the upstream information correctly, gnome-pilot 2.0.15 should work with 0.12.x. Please add it at least masked to the tree, so people can actually test if their app works with it.
Comment 65 Michael Krelin 2007-04-16 13:29:15 UTC
I am sorry for intervening at such a late stage of development, but I managed to come up with an ebuild of my own before I looked into the bug. And despite my modesty (which is my only fault, so it's not all that bad), I have to state that my ebuild is better in a number of ways. It

1. adds a bluetooth USE to control --with-bluez and also contains a patch that makes it work.
2. contains a fix for java bindings parallel build. It contains another java install fix too, but java binding won't work, anyway. It should pretty easy to fix, but since I have absolutely no expierence with it I'd leave it for those who do.
3. it adds threads USE-flag to control thread-safety.
4. it removes tk USE-flags which has no effect on the package.
5. it looks better (to me, don't take it to heart) ;-)

It has shortcomings too (not that other ebuilds don't suffer these). As I mentioned java bindings don't work and tcl as well, because it seems tcl-bindings don't go in sync with library. Well, I hope java and tcl guys can take care of it.

Thanks for your time, files follow...

Meanwhile, I've talked to upstream and they seem to accept most if not all patches for 0.12.3. And they're going to remove tcl bindings too, which sounds like a great relief ;-)

Good to hear ;-) I think we can safely drop tcl and java should be relatively easy  to install provided that someone has any idea about gentoo's java unlike me ;-)

And if, by chance, you will want more input feel free to find me @freenode as polyonymous (mostly on #gentoo-db) almost anytime.
Comment 71 Laurenz Gamper 2007-05-03 13:36:49 UTC
Is there a reason, why the ebuild is not even included in portage? e.g. Kpilot 3.5.6 depends on pilot-link >= 0.12

I had to add the m4 patch to this, otherwise I was getting aclocal failures when emerging hal and xscreensaver.

Hmm... Strange, for what I see in the patch (from comment 67) the m4 patch is there.
Comment 74 Neil Bothwick 2007-05-10 10:38:50 UTC
It's not the same patch. The one in pilot-link-0.12.2-m4.patch is more extensive. I tried without and with pilot-link-0.12.2-m4.patch and the problem only went away after applying the separate patch, which I applied after pilot-link-0.12.2-build.patch

src_unpack() {
        unpack ${A}
        cd "${S}"
        epatch "${FILESDIR}/${P}-build.patch"
        epatch "${FILESDIR}/${P}-m4.patch"
        eautoconf
        eautomake
}

Yes, but the m4 problem should be solved by the shorter one... Besides, I'm not sure if the extensive version contains anything but this short one and whitespace changes (haven't checked through, though).

This is strange, since I have my version installed here and experience no problem... Should, probably recheck it... The funny thing is that the m4 patch should not apply _after_ build one, it should fail... Well, again, need to check it once more.

Since when did computers do what they should.

I know I tried this on two systems, one ~amd64 and one ~ppc and the longer patch was needed to get rid of the errors. If it will help, I can reinstall with the shorter patch and let you have the error messages.


Comment 77 Sal Gonzalez 2007-05-10 12:21:14 UTC
Don't know if it helps, but I just installed pilot-link-0.12.2, with only the pilot-link-0.12.2-build.patch, as well ass kpilot-3.5.6 with the attached patchset and the attached libmal-0.44.  After unmasking oodles of kde 3.5.6 packages (split-ebuilds,)  I had no compile problems, for good measure I remerged hal.  This was done on one amd64 system and 2 x86 systems.  kpilot seems to be working properly.

That depends on how convincing you sound when you try to persuade them ;-)

I think I'll try it myself if I get time. So, you install pilot-link and then install of xscreensaver fails on aclocal, right?

The problem is not installing pilot-link, but doing auto* stuff afterwords. Not sure if kde is affected, although, most likely...

I can confirm the xscreensaver-5.02 aclocal bug, on both amd64 & x86.  The output of aclocal is:

Comment 90 Marcus D. Hanwell (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-05-26 20:12:02 UTC
Had to allow kpilot-3.5.5 with kde 3.5.7. This is far from ideal but at least works for now with the split ebuilds. It would be good to get this bumped for those kpilot users. Personally I do not use this stuff and so cannot test.
Comment 91 Daniel Seifert 2007-06-15 21:07:19 UTC
0.12.2 is now out for over 4 months and the latest ebuild in portage is for 0.11.8 (released 4 years ago). There are significant improvements in 0.12.x and it would be helpful for many users to be able to use 0.12. I urge the maintainers to please look into this (again) and make an ebuild available via portage.
Comment 92 Laurenz Gamper 2007-06-21 11:53:19 UTC
xscreensaver and hal emerge without problems on my system after installing with the really fixed patch.

I'd be happy if this ebuild would make it soon into the portage tree.
Comment 93 Marek Szuba archtester gentoo-dev 2007-07-12 07:26:20 UTC
I would also like to request the inclusion of pilot-link-0.12.2 into the portage tree. Among other things, the new branch makes it possible to transfer Palm standard-violating program files with resources exceeding 64 kB (two such files are included in the IBM WebSphere Java environment for PalmOS), which with older versions would make it impossible to back one's Palm up without creating exclusion lists for pilot-xfer.
Comment 94 juantxorena@gmail.com 2007-07-20 19:18:18 UTC
A working ebuild for the new version is provided here, and this is a blocking bug for kde-3.5.7 stabilization. What are we waiting for? KDE-5.0?

Yes, and this ebuild unfortunately has numerous issues:

- automagic deps on readline, libpng
- the threads USE flag doesn't work, i. e. another automagic dep
- debugging is unconditionally switched on (i. e. debug USE flag is missing)
- java handling is wrong (cf. java-pkg-opt-2.eclass)
- the tcl bindings don't compile here and upstream says they should be disabled.
- virtual/libc shouldn't be in RDEPEND.
- a DEPEND on dev-libs/popt is missing
- DEPEND contains virtual/jre which is wrong
- doesn't compile with -readline
- instead of eautoconf and eautomake, eautoreconf should be used.
- etc. etc.

I'm working on an ebuild but am battling myself with several automagic problems, the worst of which being bluez.
Comment 97 Michael Krelin 2007-08-25 18:36:54 UTC
I can fix some of these issues with my ebuild, but not all. In particular, I don't want to mess with java part. Anyway, I'm willing to help and of the gentoo channels you can find me on #gentoo-db as a 'polyonymous'. Feel free to /msg too. I didn't want to disturb you with /msg-ing and don't see an appropriate channel in your /whois.

Don't worry about disturbing me. You (and anyone else) can /query or /msg me at any time - just an answer is not guaranteed at all times. ;-)

Anyway, I was more stubborn than pilot-link ;) and, thus, 0.12.2 is now in the tree. At the moment, it's package.mask'ed because it would cause other packages to break and so I've filed bug 190218 to the maintainers/herds of the affected packages.

Please test it in any way you can and gives us feedback here. (Leaving this bug open for now.)

Thanks, Michael, for your efforts here. They are appreciated - this is just one of those package versions from hell. ;-)

Built fine. I use it once in a rare while, so I haven't tested it extensively, but reporting as much as I can  ;-)
