Bug 119084 – app-misc/wyrd-1.2.0 is available

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Tom Payne (RETIRED) 2006-01-15 06:05:00 UTC]

A new version of wyrd is available, 1.2.0. The latest version in portage is 1.1.1.

This version needs a version bump of x11-misc/remind to 03.00.24, see bug # 119083.

Tove, I've assigned it to you since you did the latest version bump. Please assign it back to me if you don't want to do it.

Cheers,

Tom

Created attachment 77171 [details, diff]
Patch to convert wyrd-1.1.1.ebuild to wyrd-1.2.0.ebuild

Update dependency on remind from 03.00.23 to 03.00.24 and allow parallel builds (they now work according to http://www.eecs.umich.edu/~pelzlpj/wyrd/ChangeLog )

Now in CVS.

Hi Tom,

wyrd has a really strange remind version check (see below):
- --help isn't supplied by upstream
- the 01-filename patch for remind removes the output of 'Usage'

I think we should remove this version check as we depend on a sufficient version anyway.

| # check Remind version
| REMINDVERSION=`remind --help 2> /dev/null | head -n 2 | tail -n 1 | cut -d ' ' -f 2`
| echo "remind version is $REMINDVERSION"

returns:
remind version is 2006

Hi Tove,

OK, I saw the weird version number but it didn't seem to stop wyrd complaining! I suspect that the version number detected by wyrd will always be the current year.

I think you're right that we should remove the check for cleanliness. I'll patch configure.in and re-run autoconf.

Tom

OK, the broken check for the remind version has been removed.
