Log from phajdan.jr

While the latest commits have fixed mknfonts and plmerge calls (bug #383665), there is a bug left in gnustep-base doc generation. Splitting from the main old bug.

Now to check while freshly compiled autogsdoc wants to do with /root/var

[Comment 1 Bernard Cafarelli 2012-03-22 13:49:41 UTC]

I can not find any relevant information in upstream changelog, but I cannot reproduce it with gnustep-base-1.24.0-r1.

@phajdan.jr, if you do not have many gnustep-* packages installed, can you test with ~arch gnustep-base/gnustep-make and gnustep-base/gnustep-base (if you have more packages, gnustep-updater-0.3 should do the trick also)

As this is the only bug left for a long time blocking the stabling of new gnustep layout (and new version of gnustep-base/*), if newer packages do not have the problem I would rather start the stabling of new layout packages.

I wonder if maybe USE="doc" is triggering it (it's autogsdoc causing problems after all). For now I can't reproduce with USE="-doc", even with current stable versions. Now testing again with USE="doc".

[Comment 3 Bernard Cafarelli 2012-03-30 09:57:52 UTC]

Yes, sorry I did not make it clear, autogsdoc compilation itself is fine, it is doc creation (calling autogsdoc) that triggers this.

When I tested, it was with USE=doc (on ~arch) and it worked fine. That's why I hope this is fixed in new releases/new gnustep layout.

[Comment 4 Paweł Hajdan, Jr. (RETIRED) 2012-03-30 19:43:29 UTC]

I reproduced with USE=doc:

gnustep-make-2.4.0
gnustep-base-1.20.1

And everything is fine with USE=doc and below:

gnustep-make-2.6.2
gnustep-base-1.24.0-r1

Feel free to file stabilization requests for the above.

Finally :) Thanks for confirmation, bug #410601 has been unleashed

[Comment 6 Bernard Cafarelli 2012-06-18 14:21:07 UTC]

Only sparc is left in #410601, I'm marking this fixed for arches with keyworded gnustep applications to go along (though most are already done)
