Unfortunately it’s not vim-complete (not sure about “pure” vi), take for
example this command line:

foo "bar" baz

Then, press Escape, 0, w, w, c, i, " — nothing happens, but in vim, this
would replace “bar”.

I suggest you look closely before posting:
http://patch-tracker.debian.org/package/bash/4.2+dfsg-0.1

I see some patches on the readline code there, but none mentions
something related to “df;” (I might be wrong).

I can confirm that. I suspect libreadline differs from bash’s readline.

it's not really "completely distinct". That aside that's basically what you get
with the Go toolset if you change GOPATH. You can freely install libraries just
like easy_install and use them from programs.

(Except that the end product is always a binary that doesn't care if a library

Building and using shared libraries using gccgo

2013-01-31 Thread Hilko Bengen
* Michael Stapelberg:

> Can you please list the full instructions you did to accomplish building
> sparse/index/regexp as a shared library?

Sure. See the Makefile at the end of this mail. Please note that I don't
really know what I'm doing here -- just tried a few things and tried to
make sense of error messages until I got working binaries.

I put symlinks to the index, sparse, regexp directories into
src/code.google.com/p/codesearch and added -Isrc to every gccgo
invocation, so that the compiler looks for the local imports in the
right place. For the shared libraries, I added

1. -shared -fPIC

2. -fno-split-stack
   Otherwise I could not link executables and got the following error
   message:
   /usr/bin/ld.bfd.real: cindex: hidden symbol `__morestack' in
   /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.7/libgcc.a/morestack.o) is referenced
   by DSO
   /usr/bin/ld.bfd.real: final link failed: Bad value

When the libraries are put into
src/code.google.com/codesearch/lib{sparse,regexp,index}.so, they are
subsequently found by the compiler -- and apparently used for imports,
even if the source files are missing.

I have not yet figured out how to specify the full namespace-related
path to the linker yet: -lcode.google.com/p/codesearch/index causes ld
then to look for libcode.google.com/p/codesearch/index.so which is
almost but not quite what is needed.

Cheers,

better use -fuse-ld=ld.gold, or in a packaging context, build-depend on
binutils-gold. gold should be available on all archs where gccgo is available.

The Vcs-* entries have been removed in 2.3.4-1 as you can see in the
changelog:

-- snip --
vsftpd (2.3.4-1) unstable; urgency=low
…
* Removing vcs fields.
…
-- Daniel Baumann   Mon, 05 Sep 
2011 15:55:00 +0200
-- snip --

I am not sure why Daniel decided to remove them or where the package is
maintained now, but that explains the behaviour you see on p.d.o and in the
PTS.

It is a good idea, but it is up to the maintainer to decide how (s)he wants to
maintain her/his packages. Using a git repository certainly isn't mandatory
even though it is quite common these days.

Note that you can always get a source package with, for example, "apt-get
source PKG"

Packages in stable are not generally updated for changes in the VCS
links. Always use the package in unstable as the reference - if that
doesn't give a link, only the maintainer knows why that was removed.

Try asking the maintainer (follow the link to the PTS from the page you
mentioned). There might also be information in the changelog for the
latest version (in this case unstable) - again, linked from the PTS. In
this case, 2.3.4-1 removed the vcs fields without further explanation,
so ask the maintainer.

This arrangement works pretty well for me in practice, especially since

consensus about Built-Using?

2013-01-31 Thread Matthias Klose
Looking at recent package rejections for NEW uploads with the only thing being a
missing Built-Using attribute, and the voluntary disclosures in the recent
golang thread, I'm wondering if there is a consensus about the use of the
Built-Using attribute. The current solutions looks rather simplistic, and don't
offer much value (maybe except for easily implementing this in dak).

 - footnote 58 in policy 7.8 says "The archive software might reject
   packages that refer to non-existent sources". However they are also
   manually rejected. And it looks like others aren't aware of this too.

 - The scope of what belongs into Built-Using is not clear. Policy is
   vague ("Examples include ...") and ftp-master seems to have a much
   more narrow interpretation.

   If "linking with static libraries" (and "object files" is missing here)
   is what you want, then nearly every package having an executable
   should have a Built-Using: eglibc. Every binary or shared library
   linking with -lgcc (libgcc.a) should have a Built-Using: gcc-4.x.
   Same for clang and probably most other compilers.
   Is this wanted?
   What is the value having this?

   Looking further:
   - binaries copying config.{guess,sub}: Built-Using: autotools?
   - documentation copying templates:  Built-Using: 
   - ...

 - policy 7.8 requires the "exactly equal" relation to express this
   dependency. This might be convenient for the dak developers, however
   it is not what you always want.

   - {gcj,gnat,gdc}-4.x do *only* use the upstream tarball in a
 gcc-4.x-source package, which doesn't change between full source
 uploads. So the correct field is e.g.:
 Built-Using: gcc-4.7 (>= 4.7.2), gcc-4.7 (<< 4.7.3)
 However I still fail to see, why the corresponding build-dependency
 cannot be used to extract this information.

   - libgcc.a doesn't change much, so what value does an exact version
 have?  An interval spanning even major versions would be good
 enough to express this dependency. Otoh, how does a package uploader
 get this interval, instead of the exact version?

 - Built-Using doesn't belong into the binary package. Now you add >100
   Built-Using attributes into the gcc-4.x control file just to replace
   everyone of these with the *source* package name. Nice! Granted,
   Ansgar Burchardt did provide me with a patch, but I won't do such
   exercises on my own. Why not as part of the changes file?

 - Built-Using shouldn't track source packages but binary packages.
   If the field is supposed to be used for license tracking, then you
   should consider that binary packages built from within the same
   source package have different licenses.
   E.g. a Built-Using linking against libiberty.a should have a
   different outcome than linking against the binutils libs (which
   nobody should do anyway, but this is a different story ...)

As a first step, policy 7.8 should allow ranges instead of exact binary
versions. And I would like ask ftp-master not to reject packages just on the
basis of a missing Built-Using field. Please accept, and file a non-RC issue
about this instead.

  Matthias

The issue is licensing. These flags (IIRC) are to instruct the archive
to keep the source, so long as there's a package that was built using
it. Could be wrong, though.

This is a pretty important legal thing, IMHO. :)

Yes it does in most cases, but --system-site-packages can do the wrong thing in
certain edge-cases like trying to find a sane interface to libmagic in Python.

There are at least three different Python modules available on PyPI that provide
the magic module, i.e. "import magic", and *all* of them have *different* APIs.
If you're lucky, you end up deploying on a distro (e.g. in shared hosting or in
a PaaS like Openshift) that has the wrong magic module installed on the system,
and your application/library crashes and burns in a very spectacular manner.
