Bug 330525 – Stabilize =x11-wm/windowmaker-0.92.0-r9 and =x11-misc/wmakerconf-2.12

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Pál Csányi 2010-07-30 15:11:25 UTC]

I thought that wmakerconf 2.12 is masked.
I unmasked it editing '/etc/portage/package.keywords' and emerge it.
It just works! :)


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Unmasked wmakerconf.
2. Emerge wmakerconf.
3. Run wmakerconf.

Actual Results:  
It works!

Expected Results:  
It works!

Don't you think it should be unmasked?

It will need windowmaker-0.92.0-r9 stable as well (because of bug 265465).

[Comment 2 Bernard Cafarelli 2010-08-19 19:27:53 UTC]

And stabilizing this version of windowmaker is also a good idea ;)

Arches please test and mark stable:
* =x11-wm/windowmaker-0.92.0-r9 for alpha, amd64, hppa, ppc, ppc64, sparc, x86
* =x11-misc/wmakerconf-2.12 (configuration program for wmaker), for amd64, ppc, sparc, x86

[Comment 3 Markos Chandras (RETIRED) 2010-08-20 10:28:50 UTC]

amd64 done

[Comment 4 Markus Meier 2010-08-22 12:25:57 UTC]

with USE="gnustep" you get this QA warning:

* econf: updating WindowMaker-0.92.0/config.guess with /usr/share/gnuconfig/config.guess
./configure --prefix=/usr --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib --sysconfdir=/etc/X11 --with-x --enable-usermenu --with-pixmapdir=/usr/share/pixmaps --with-nlsdir=/usr/share/locale --enable-xpm --enable-png --enable-jpeg --enable-gif --enable-tiff --enable-modelock --enable-xinerama --with-gnustepdir=/usr/GNUstep/System
configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --with-gnustepdir

not sure if this is a regression.

[Comment 5 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) 2010-08-24 11:55:22 UTC]

we will do it anyway on x86

[Comment 6 Bernard Cafarelli 2010-08-25 11:54:39 UTC]

Strange, even if configure complains about --with-gnustepdir, the ebuild still installs WPrefs correctly in /usr/GNUstep/System (which is about the only use of this configure flag)with USE=gnustep, and in /usr/{bin,share} when USE=-gnustep. And I don't see what's missing in the relevant configure.ac part, Fabian what do you think?

Arches, you can go on with stabling, this does not change the behaviour compared to previous version, we'll clear the QA warning

[Comment 7 Fabian Groffen 2010-08-25 12:04:26 UTC]

I think I'm affraid I made a mess around here.

First, the ebuild should've been EAPI=3.
Second, the argument we're looking for is --with-gnustepdir (mind the "dir")
Third, because we set GNUSTEP_LOCAL_ROOT, we magically override the gnustepdir argument.

Conclusion, we can safely drop the configure argument, or (probably better) drop the export of GNUSTEP_LOCAL_ROOT and fix the configure argument.

I guess we better do this in a revbump regardless, which is then going to be EAPI=3, so yes, we you can safely ignore the configure warning thing.

I'll commit -r10 soon, unless someone objects.

[Comment 8 Fabian Groffen 2010-08-25 12:09:04 UTC]

sorry, point 2 is a screwup in the configure.ac file:
AC_ARG_WITH(appspath, [  --with-gnustepdir=PAT ...

appspath != gnustepdir.  Guess we better just fix that.

[Comment 9 Raúl Porcel (RETIRED) 2010-09-19 16:51:33 UTC]

alpha/sparc stable

[Comment 10 Brent Baude (RETIRED) 2010-10-14 16:34:28 UTC]

ppc stable

[Comment 11 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) 2010-10-19 02:22:17 UTC]

Stable for HPPA.

[Comment 12 Kacper Kowalik (Xarthisius) (RETIRED) 2011-01-13 18:17:02 UTC]

ppc64 will pass on stabilizing x11-wm/windowmaker
added ~ppc64 to =x11-misc/wmakerconf-2.12
