Furthermore, you do not need to add ffmpeg to "REQUIRES" because
the cmus package itself does not really depend on ffmpeg package
even though it depends libavcodec, libavformat, libavutil and
libswresample.
I was already told once that I probably can leave REQUIRES out.
Currently I'm using it for setting up a minimal test environment where I
install only the packages listed in REQUIRES.
Can cygport give me that information if I do not write any REQUIRES?
Last time I asked the answer was no, and thus I decided to keep it to
ease testing on my side.
Without REQUIRES line, "cygport cmus all" with above patch gives me:
....
cmus requires: cygwin libao4 libavcodec61 libavformat61 libavutil59
libcddb2 libcdio18 libcdio_cdda2 libdiscid0 libFLAC12 libiconv2
libmad0 libmodplug1 libmpcdec7 libncursesw10 libopusfile0 libpulse0
libswresample5 libvorbisfile3 libwavpack1
I guess this is as you expect (if libav* are free from clang dependency),
isn't it?
Yes, it looks good.
I'll drop the REQUIRES the next time I'll upload a package then.
Hello, I have a feature request/question for the cygport maintainer (not
sure how those are normally handled)
cygport reports the required packages, but only after building the
application.
My workflow is normally the following one:
Setup the cygwin environment for building and testing, download the
sources, then in an offline environment, build and test.
Since "cygport cmus all" reports the required dependencies only after
building, I have some difficulties in taking advantage of the listed
packages...
I could imagine to have a "minimal cygwin environment" for executing
"cygport cmus enlist-dependencies", and from the output create one
cygwin environment for building, and one for testing, but if it needs to
build the application, I do not see how to use it for bootstrapping an
offline environment.
I could move the REQUIRES from the cygport file to somewhere else and
use it only myself, but at that point, why not use the REQUIRES?
