Packaging for openSUSE
by Andrew Jorgensen-4

Rate this Message:
Hi, I'm one of Novell's packagers and have been asked to get Tao into
the openSUSE build service. I've run into a few difficulties. The prebuild system doesn't seem to be able to generate a good autotools build from the 2.0.0 sources available on sf.net. If the debian folks don't mind I'd love to hear their experiences. I notice that rather than the 2.0.0 release you've uploaded an svn snapshot. Was this necessary to get it building on Linux / Mono? Thanks in Advance, -- Andrew Jorgensen <ajorgensen@...> Novell, Inc. _______________________________________________ Tao-list mailing list Tao-list@... http://galactus.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/tao-list |

Hi,
You would want to use an SVN snapshot since that has a better version of prebuild. Debian has been using it to generate the autotools files. Note that debian also has a few patches to the autotools files as well. That said, everyone is interested in geting rid of prebuild, so any any help in that regard would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
What would be required in getting rid of prebuild? Just the creation of all the projects in MonoDevelop, as well as the script to build the project using NAnt?

Create project files for VS2005 (easy), NAnt (easy) and autotools (hard).
Then add them to SVN and remove prebuild from the the scripts. The autotools/prebuild files actually move the C# code files around quite a bit to simplify the build. I understand the need for this, but I would really hope there is a better way to do this.

So I think what I'll do for the first round is use the tarball debian made and their patches as well. _______________________________________________ Tao-list mailing list Tao-list@... http://galactus.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/tao-list |

Problems compiling against Mono 1.2.6

There's a problem compiling against mono 1.2.6, I'm not sure if it's a
mono problem or a Tao problem: make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/packages/BUILD/tao-2.0.0.svn20071027/Tao.OpenGl/Tao.OpenGl' mkdir -p doc && mkdir -p bin/Debug && /usr/bin/gmcs /out:bin/Debug/Tao.OpenGl.dll \ /target:library \ /r:System \ ./Gl.cs ./GlExtensionLoader.cs ./GlHelper.cs ./Glu.cs ./Properties/AssemblyInfo.cs \ /doc:doc/Tao.OpenGl.xml \ /keyfile:./Tao.OpenGl.snk \ /unsafe \ && rm -f Tao.OpenGl.dll \ && ln bin/Debug/Tao.OpenGl.dll Tao.OpenGl.dll error CS1569: Error generating XML documentation file `doc/Tao.OpenGl.xml' (`Operation is not supported.')

I've worked past an issue with mono 1.2.6 (turns out to be a bug in the
compiler ) and am looking a few other issues. I'm not complaining about how the debian folks did things here, just curious about the rationale. First, debian renames or replaces the .pc files to lowercase. Is this desirable? It seems that whatever we do out to be consistent across distros or the .pc files are useless to developers wanting to use them. Second, debian separates the opengl and freeglut, etc. parts into sub-packages even though they appear to be interdependent. Third, Cg and Glfw are not packaged at all. Presumably because the native libraries are not available in debian? Any feedback is appreciated. The packaging sources can be seen in the openSUSE build service here: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?project=home:ajorgensen:mono&package=taoframework Right now our package is based on the debian work.

The problem I see with it is that programs that depend on Tao will use pkgconfig to find the link flags but if some distros use lowercased .pc files and some use uppercased the the developer cannot use pkgconfig in a distro-independent way. > > Second, debian separates the opengl and freeglut, etc. parts into > > sub-packages even though they appear to be interdependent.

I suggested this naming convention to the Tao developers for consistency with other .pc files (http://www.taoframework.com/node/432). Out of the 218 .pc files I have on my system, only two (OpenEXR.pc and SDL_Pango.pc) use uppercase characters. > Third, Cg and Glfw are not packaged at all.

Prebuild-free) autotools support in the Tao SVN. As most of my experience is with Debian, I may have done a few things too Debian-centric, so please let me know of anything that might be annoying for the SUSE packaging.
