[arch-dev-public] ruby-1.9 rebuilds
Hi, I have done some of the rebuilds required for ruby. Could the maintainers of the following packages look into rebuilding them against ruby-1.9. rrdtool - I did the rebuild but no idea how to test... weechat - seems not compatible. Disable plugin? subversion - I get this error when building in a chroot: You don't seem to have Berkeley DB version 4.0.14 or newer installed and linked to APR-UTIL. We have created Makefiles which will build without the Berkeley DB back-end; ...<snip> db is a dep so I have no idea what is going on. Maybe needs another makedep? I have not looked into this further. Thanks, Allan

It's my package. I'm also not sure how to test it but it looks good.

subversion builds fine here in my x86_64 testing chroot. Want me to upload it?

It builds fine here too... just with that warning and when the build is finished the svn binary is not linked to the db libs which I think is not good. So if that is fine on your system, go for it. I get it on both my i686 and x86_64 chroots. Allan

I just tried building weechat against ruby-1.9.1_p129-2 in testing and I've got the following issue at configure: *** Ruby header file couldn't be found in your system. *** Try to install them with your software package manager. *** WeeChat will be built without Ruby support. BTW, it builds fine with or without Ruby support. So, I also could disable the useless ruby plugin. Let me know your opinions. -- Arch Linux Developer http://www.archlinux.org http://www.archlinux.it

I just put a rebuilt subversion in testing. I looked in weechat a bit. Here's a dirty patch to enable the build of the ruby plugin: http://dev.archlinux.org/~eric/ruby.patch It still fails to build however. It can't find a ruby header file among other things. Feel free to check it out as I won't spend more time on it. It might be better to disable the plugin. From a comment on AUR for weechat-git: "The weechat dev did not write the ruby plugin and doesn't know ruby. And the person who originally created the plugin is no longer around. If you have the skills and time, consider helping out by porting the plugin to ruby 1.9."

Well, I agree here so I will disable the ruby plugin. -- Arch Linux Developer http://www.archlinux.org http://www.archlinux.it

Disabling the plugin seems to be the only option here. Even after adjusting the header dection to get this to try to build, there are some errors during compilation. It appears the person who submitted the ruby plugin upstream no longer maintains it and the lead dev does not know ruby so I don't see this being fixed anytime soon... Allan
