Bug 579232 – gnustep-base/* packages stable request

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Bernard Cafarelli 2016-04-07 12:01:12 UTC]

Stable core gnustep packages are quite old, so it is time for another stabling round

Here is the list:
* amd64, ppc, ppc64, sparc, x86:
 * gnustep-base/gnustep-make-2.6.7-r1

* amd64, ppc, sparc, x86:
 * gnustep-base/gnustep-base-1.24.8-r1
 * gnustep-base/gnustep-gui-0.24.1
 * gnustep-base/gnustep-back-art-0.24.1
 * gnustep-base/gnustep-back-cairo-0.24.1 (default backend in virtual)
 * gnustep-base/gnustep-back-xlib-0.24.1
 * virtual/gnustep-back-0.24.1

* amd64, ppc, x86:
 * gnustep-apps/gworkspace-0.9.3

* amd64, x86:
 * gnustep-apps/gorm-1.2.22
 * gnustep-base-libobjc2-1.8.1
This one is an optional dependency for gnustep-make (available only on your arches). Switching the libobjc2 flag implies rebuilding gnustep packages ("gnustep-updater -l" task)
I last had it tested end of 2015 and it worked fine in my test apps, but if you encounter new problems don't hesitate to drop this from stabling (the USE flag will go in package.use.stable.mask)

Some applications in gnustep-apps/ are small and fast to install if needed as test steps

Thanks!

Small change for gnustep-base, this is 1.24.8-r2 now (instead of -r1). The only change is a removed hardcoded dep on openssl (leftover from the deps rewrite for libressl)

[Comment 2 Tobias Klausmann (RETIRED) 2016-12-19 14:41:24 UTC]

gnustep-base-libobjc2-1.8.1  also needs libcxx. I picked sys-libs/libcxx-3.9.0.

That then needs sys-libs/libcxxrt, where I picked sys-libs/libcxxrt-0.0_p20160922

But then, repoman gets unhappy:

dependency.bad [fatal]        24
   sys-libs/libcxxrt/libcxxrt-0.0_p20160922.ebuild: DEPEND: amd64(default/linux/amd64/13.0)
[     '>=sys-libs/libunwind-1.0.1-r1[static-libs?,abi_x86_32(-)?,abi_x86_64(-)?,abi_x86_x32(-)?,abi_mips_n32(-)?,abi_mips_n64(-)?,abi_mips_o32(-)?,abi_ppc_32(-)?,abi_ppc_64(-)?,abi_s390_32(-)?,abi_s390_64(-)?]']

Please update the dependency list, then CC the arches back.

Dear Maintainer (or who is mainly involved in this stable request),

This is an auto-generated message that will move the current component to the new component Stabilization.
To ensure that the stabilization will proceed correctly, please fill the fields "Atoms to stabilize" and "Runtime testing required" as described here:

Sigh, looks like my initial comment (8 months ago) on "optional dependency" in bug report was missed.

I pushed the package.use.stable.mask change, let's try again with new versions:
* amd64, ppc, ppc64, sparc, x86:
 * gnustep-base/gnustep-make-2.6.8

* amd64, ppc, sparc, x86:
 * gnustep-base/gnustep-base-1.24.9-r1
 * gnustep-base/gnustep-gui-0.25.0
 * gnustep-base/gnustep-back-art-0.25.0
 * gnustep-base/gnustep-back-cairo-0.25.0 (default backend in virtual)
 * gnustep-base/gnustep-back-xlib-0.25.0
 * virtual/gnustep-back-0.25.0

* amd64, ppc, x86:
 * gnustep-apps/gworkspace-0.9.4

* amd64, x86:
 * gnustep-apps/gorm-1.2.23

gworkspace and gorm can be used as runtime test applications, gnustep-apps/systempreferences too (and other gnustep-apps/* packages)

Please don't hesitate if gnustep-* categories should not be supported anymore on your arch, say so here and I will drop the stable (or all) keywords for it.

An automated check of this bug failed - repoman reported dependency errors (49 lines truncated):
