Plan B
by Darrell Anderson 18 Feb '12

18 Feb '12

Tim is a great team leader and incredibly skilled with programming and seeing both the trees and forest. But Tim is only one person. There are many patches that have been submitted to the bugzilla. Those patches have yet to be merged. Many of those patches directly affect building packages. Perhaps I'm out in left field, but seems to me that all build related bug reports should be resolved as fast as possible. Any such report with a patch should be merged within a day or two. Granted, often we bypass the bugzilla and resolve build related bugs directly in this list, but I'm addressing those that do get filed in the bugzilla. Is Tim the only person qualified or allowed to merge patches? He has to sleep too and should not be the only person merging patches. Many of the patches are nominal or trivial. Others should be able merge those types of patches. If Tim is not the only person, is anybody who has GIT access interested in merging those patches? If Tim is the only person then why don't we have alternates to share the load for when Tim is busy with other life requirements? All of this leads into an important topic. Where do we stand when Tim has to devote time and energy to other life requirements? Do we have a Plan B to keep the project moving forward? Seems to me that whenever Tim is not merging patches the project grinds to a halt. That's a high compliment to Tim, but an uncomfortable reflection on the project. :( Darrell

confused by git: scripts/switch_all_submodules_to_head_and_clean - calls self recursively? Why?
by David C. Rankin 18 Feb '12

18 Feb '12

Guys, Trying to sort out my git issues, I have been picking through switch_all_submodules_to_head_and_clean. I cannot understand what the purpose of the line: git submodule foreach "$THISSCRIPT $gituser" That line causes git to step through each of its submodules and call: "switch_all_submodules_to_head_and_clean <gitUser>" Why? The script has already done everything at least once before? Dissecting the script it does: git reset --hard HEAD git clean -dxf git pull git reset --hard HEAD git clean -dxf sed -i "s/system@/$gituser@/g" .gitmodules # or 's/system@//g' git submodule init git submodule update git submodule foreach "git checkout master" git submodule foreach "git pull" then it does: git submodule foreach "$THISSCRIPT $gituser" Which causes this script to be run all over again on each submodule... I have changed this version of my script as follows and it seems to run on each submodule anyway: git reset --hard HEAD git clean -dxf git pull git reset --hard HEAD git clean -dxf sed -i "s/system@/$gituser@/g" .gitmodules # or 's/system@//g' git submodule init git submodule update --recursive git submodule foreach --recursive "git checkout master" git submodule foreach --recursive "git pull" git pull gets everything: 16:32 archangel:/dat_f/tde/git> git pull remote: Counting objects: 14, done remote: Finding sources: 100% (12/12) remote: Total 12 (delta 8), reused 12 (delta 8) Unpacking objects: 100% (12/12), done.

git /scripts will need updating to handle git >= 1.6.5 - experimental still doesn't update
by David C. Rankin 17 Feb '12

17 Feb '12

Tim, all, It appears that the git tde/scripts will need updating to work with git >= 1.6.5. I still get the error: git submodule foreach "/dat_f/tde/git/scripts/switch_all_submodules_to_head_and_clean drankin" Entering 'experimental' This script can only be run from a top level git directory. Exiting... Stopping at 'experimental'; script returned non-zero status. What that means is the foreach loop in switch_all_submodules_to_head_and_clean gets to experimental, crashes and then doesn't complete for any of the remaining modules in: 'git submodule scripts/switch_all_submodules_to_head_and_clean' It seems to be failing on: git submodule foreach "$THISSCRIPT $gituser" maybe it should be?: git submodule foreach --recursive "$THISSCRIPT $gituser" Below are a couple of patches for the scripts inserting '--recursive' where applicable: --- scripts/switch_all_submodules_to_head_and_clean +++ scripts/switch_all_submodules_to_head_and_clean 2012-02-17 11:42:56.955472310 -0600 @@ -37,10 +37,10 @@ fi git submodule init - git submodule update - git submodule foreach "git checkout master" - git submodule foreach "git pull" - git submodule foreach "$THISSCRIPT $gituser" + git submodule update --recursive + git submodule foreach --recursive "git checkout master" + git submodule foreach --recursive "git pull" + git submodule foreach --recursive "$THISSCRIPT $gituser" git checkout -- .gitmodules fi --- scripts/update_all_submodules +++ scripts/update_all_submodules 2012-02-17 11:50:19.504957047 -0600 @@ -30,7 +30,7 @@ cd ../ done git submodule init - git submodule update + git submodule update --recursive cd $PARENTDIR/$DIR2UPDATE git reset --hard HEAD git clean -d -x -f At least I am not cloning the admin and cmake contents! -- David C.

tdelibs and tqtinterface FTBFS with tqt3
by Darrell Anderson 17 Feb '12

17 Feb '12

I addressed this issue previously in bug report 816. Seems the bug still exists. Here is the relevant tdelibs failure: ======================================================= [ 1%] Building CXX object dcop/CMakeFiles/DCOP-shared.dir/dcopclient.cpp.o cd /dev/shm/tdelibs.build/dcop && /usr/bin/c++ -DDCOP_shared_EXPORTS -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -O2 -march=i486 -mtune=i686 -fvisibility=hidden -fvisibility-inlines-hidden -DQT_NO_ASCII_CAST -DQT_CLEAN_NAMESPACE -DQT_NO_STL -DQT_NO_COMPAT -DQT_NO_TRANSLATION -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -D_REENTRANT -include tqt.h -fPIC -I/opt/trinity/include -I/usr/include/tqt -I/dev/shm/tdelibs.build/dcop -I/dev/shm/tdelibs.build -I/dev/shm/tdelibs/dcop -I/dev/shm/tdelibs.build/tdecore -I/dev/shm/tdelibs/tdecore -o CMakeFiles/DCOP-shared.dir/dcopclient.cpp.o -c /dev/shm/tdelibs/dcop/dcopclient.cpp /dev/shm/tdelibs/dcop/dcopclient.cpp: In member function 'bool DCOPClient::attachInternal(bool)': /dev/shm/tdelibs/dcop/dcopclient.cpp:785: error: 'qint64' was not declared in this scope /dev/shm/tdelibs/dcop/dcopclient.cpp:785: error: expected ')' before numeric constant /dev/shm/tdelibs/dcop/dcopclient.cpp:785: error: expected ')' before ';' token make[2]: *** [dcop/CMakeFiles/DCOP-shared.dir/dcopclient.cpp.o] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/dev/shm/tdelibs.build' make[1]: *** [dcop/CMakeFiles/DCOP-shared.dir/all] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/dev/shm/tdelibs.build' make: *** [all] Error 2 ======================================================= tqt3, tqtinterface, arts, dbus-tqt, dbus-1-tqt, tqca-tls, libart_lgpl built without error. However, I need to patch tqtinterface to build with tqt3. Refer to bug report 816 for the patch. Here are the relevant failures when I build tqtinterface with tqt3 and without my patch: ======================================================= /dev/shm/tqtinterface.build/qtinterface/tqt.h:56:21: error: qglobal.h: No such file or directory /dev/shm/tqtinterface/qtinterface/interface_qt3/tqassistantclient.h:29:30: error: qassistantclient.h: No such file or directory /dev/shm/tqtinterface.build/qtinterface/tqt.h:56:21: error: qglobal.h: No such file or directory /dev/shm/tqtinterface/qtinterface/interface_qt3/tqassistantclient.h:29:30: error: qassistantclient.h: No such file or directory ======================================================= As mentioned in bug report 816, the tqtinterface errors are a result of limiting the cmake logic to searching only /usr/ for tqt3 include files. My feeble patch avoids that limitation and allows tqtinterface to build against tqt3, but tdelibs will not build. These build issues do not appear with qt3. Darrell

configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 3.3 and < 4.0) (headers and libraries) not found
by Darrell Anderson 17 Feb '12

17 Feb '12

Looks like this monster has returned. :( Building from latest GIT. Problem exists only for automake packages. I built qt3 and not tqt3. Core packages built without error. I have the tqtinterface headers installed to /usr/include/tqt. Looking at the configure.log reveals the following: 1) Seems the configure process is hard-coded to look for header files prefixed with "n." I don't know whether that is intentional or a typo. A test patch to strip the "n" does not help resolve the failure. ================================================== diff -urN tdeaccessibility/admin/acinclude.m4.in tdeaccessibility.new/admin/acinclude.m4.in --- tdeaccessibility/admin/acinclude.m4.in 2012-02-15 13:33:08.000000000 -0600 +++ tdeaccessibility.new/admin/acinclude.m4.in 2012-02-15 22:25:42.496185447 -0600 @@ -1663,11 +1663,11 @@ kde_qt_header="Qt/qstyle.h" else kde_qt_header=qstyle.h - kde_tqt_header=ntqstyle.h + kde_tqt_header=tqstyle.h fi else kde_qt_header=qglobal.h - kde_tqt_header=ntqglobal.h + kde_tqt_header=tqglobal.h fi AC_FIND_FILE($kde_qt_header, $qt_incdirs, qt_incdir) ================================================== 2) Seems the failure message is misleading.

Could git version mismatches be responsible for the borked git clone experiences?
by David C. Rankin 17 Feb '12

17 Feb '12

Guys, I did a fresh git clone http://scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git and the git clone resulted in the same empty 'admin' and 'cmake' files in the directories and in having and experimental/.git FILE instead of a DIR which hosed the shared object use to fill them. switch_all_submodules_to_head_and_clean crashed on experimental do I deleted and recloned experimental. Now I have a proper .git DIRECTORY in experimental and the expected objects are present. All other dependencies, applications, have .git FILES instead of .git DIRECTORIES causing switch_all_submodules_to_head_and_clean to fail. If I delete each submodule and then re-clone it again in the tree, the it will contain a proper .git dir and will accept 'admin' and 'cmake' shared objects allowing build. But, I shouldn't have to pick through every submodule in TDE, delete recursive the submodule and then re-clone just to get the tree straightened out -- this is git -- it should just work. Still any idea what the cause of these issues are?? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
