Package: koffice Severity: wishlist Tags: experimental libwpd 0.9.0 and libwpg 0.2.0 were released and are already in experimental. You get this report because your package (build-)depends on it. There's API and ABI changed there so it needs a transition. To make it the least painful many packages should migrate quickly at least in experimental so they can be uploaded to sid together (or at least in short delays) when it's due time.
I had a quick chat with upstream some days ago: 13:19 <@Fridrich> _rene_: btw, I am pretty happy to have this series out of the door 13:19 -!- mode/#libreoffice [+o jcorrius] by ChanServ 13:19 -!- jcorrius (Adium User) [~ad...@77.230.181.156] has joined #libreoffice 13:19 <@Fridrich> _rene_: although, 0.8.x showed to be really stable due to Will iam's ingenious design. It was possible to do almost a complete logic change und er the hood without it affecting the API considerably 13:20 <@Fridrich> _rene_: for 0.9.0, I added some no-op apis for named styles so that we manage to add them without breaking the binary compatibility 13:20 <@_rene_> how big is 0.9s API change? how hard will the time for koffice, inkscape and abiword be? 13:21 -!- beppec56 is now known as beppec56_afk 13:21 <@Fridrich> _rene_: inkscape should not be so difficult, because they can use the convenience SVG genrating method 13:21 <@Fridrich> abiword has already the modifications in trunk 13:22 <@Fridrich> _rene_: although, marc will have to finish implementing the new callbacks to have the new features implemented 13:22 * _rene_ just cares on buildability for now :-) 13:22 <@Fridrich> _rene_: for abiword's use of WPG, they use the SVG genrating function and include SVG in the documetn, so little change 13:23 <@Fridrich> _rene_: yeah, trunk of abiword has the patch, and it should be pretty easy to apply fro 2.8.x 13:23 -!- MPD [~...@196-210-220-165.dynamic.isadsl.co.za] has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds] 13:23 < CIA-107> LibreOffice (libs-core) tbehrens * sfx2/source/dialog/splitwin.cxx: Fix crash during toolpanel re-docking 13:23 <@_rene_> as I can't upload 0.9/0.2 (and thus LibO) until everything migrated, unless I reinstate/keep 0.8/0.1 with different -dev name around a bit longer 13:23 < CIA-107> LibreOffice (libs-core) [libreoffice-3-3] tbehrens * sfx2/source/dialog/splitwin.cxx: Fix crash during toolpanel re-docking 13:24 <@Fridrich> _rene_: but libwpd 0.8.x and 0.9.x can coexist without problem on the same machine: different place for headers and different pc file names and different library names 13:24 <@thorsten> spaetz_: hm, noticing extension_32_h.png in reportbuilder/util/makefile.mk - what was the plan for extensions, for HC? 13:24 <@Fridrich> _rene_: libwpd-0.8.so* vs libwpd-0.9.so* 13:24 <@_rene_> yeah, I know, that is not my worry 13:26 <@Fridrich> _rene_: the new thing is that libwpg depends completely on libwpd and that the painter api is completely rewritten, nevertheless, if the project uses the SVG generator api, the buidl fix is just trivial stuff 13:26 -!- beppec56_afk is now known as beppec56 13:26 <@Fridrich> _rene_: some changes in integer types in WPXInputStream class and using the libwpd implementations 13:27 <@Fridrich> _rene_: for koffice, it should be easy too, because they for the time being were using the writerperfect code to generata sxw and then pass that to their sxw import. Now, they could just generate odt and pass it to the odt import 13:27 <@Fridrich> _rene_: but you can imagine how much I care about koffice 13:28 <@_rene_> probably as much as me :) 13:28 <@_rene_> (as in "I don't really care") 13:28 <@Fridrich> _rene_: so it means you care about 100 times more then me :) [...] 13:28 -!- juanman (Juan Martin) [~quas...@unaffiliated/juanman] has joined #libreoffice 13:29 <@Fridrich> _rene_: if I remembered who were the morrons that tried to fork libwpg, I would write them the announcement too :) -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages abiword depends on: pn abiword-com <none> (no description available) ii gsfonts 1:8.11+urwcyr1.0.7~pre44-4.2 Fonts for the Ghostscript interpre pn libabiword- <none> (no description available) ii libaiksauru 1.2.1+dev-0.12-6 an English-language thesaurus (dev pn libaiksauru <none> (no description available) ii libatk1.0-0 1.30.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.11.2-7 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcairo2 1.8.10-6 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.24-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-gli 0.88-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libenchant1 1.6.0-1 a wrapper library for various spel ii libexpat1 2.0.1-7 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libfontconf 2.8.0-2.1 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype 2.4.2-2.1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libfribidi0 0.19.2-1 Free Implementation of the Unicode ii libgcc1 1:4.4.5-8 GCC support library ii libgcrypt11 1.4.5-2 LGPL Crypto library - runtime libr ii libglib2.0- 2.24.2-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnutls26 2.8.6-1 the GNU TLS library - runtime libr ii libgoffice- 0.8.11-3 Document centric objects library - ii libgsf-1-11 1.14.19-2 Structured File Library - runtime ii libgtk2.0-0 2.20.1-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libidn11 1.18-1 GNU Libidn library, implementation ii libjpeg62 6b1-1 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG pn libloudmout <none> (no description available) pn libots0 <none> (no description available) ii libpango1.0 1.28.3-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpixman-1 0.16.4-1 pixel-manipulation library for X a ii libpng12-0 1.2.44-1 PNG library - runtime pn libpsiconv6 <none> (no description available) ii libreadline 6.1-3 GNU readline and history libraries ii librsvg2-2 2.26.3-1 SAX-based renderer library for SVG ii libsoup2.4- 2.30.2-1 an HTTP library implementation in ii libstdc++6 4.4.5-8 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libwmf0.2-7 0.2.8.4-6.1+b1 Windows metafile conversion librar ii libwpd8c2a 0.8.14-1 Library for handling WordPerfect d ii libwpg-0.1- 0.1.3-1 WordPerfect graphics import/conver pn libwps-0.1- <none> (no description available) pn libwv-1.2-3 <none> (no description available) ii libx11-6 2:1.3.3-4 X11 client-side library ii libxcb-rend 0.3.6-1 utility libraries for X C Binding ii libxcb-rend 1.6-1 X C Binding, render extension ii libxcb1 1.6-1 X C Binding ii libxml2 2.7.8.dfsg-1 GNOME XML library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.6-1 X Rendering Extension client libra ii libxslt1.1 1.1.26-6 XSLT 1.0 processing library - runt ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages abiword recommends: pn abiword-plugin-grammar <none> (no description available) pn abiword-plugin-mathvie <none> (no description available) ii aspell-de [aspell-dict 20091006-4.1 German dictionary for aspell ii aspell-en [aspell-dict 6.0-0-6 English dictionary for GNU Aspell ii poppler-utils 0.12.4-1.2 PDF utilitites (based on libpopple ii ttf-liberation 1.05.2.20091019-4 Fonts with the same metrics as Tim abiword suggests no packages.
