State of dbus-update

State of dbus-update

[Andreas Enge]

Hi all,

it looks like we are more or less there:
   http://hydra.gnu.org/eval/107613?compare=master#tabs-now-fail
34 "newly failing", plus some more that failed under "new jobs".

The updated leptonica unfortunately fails on all architectures:
   http://hydra.gnu.org/build/758863

The fix for ardour-3 is not enough:
   http://hydra.gnu.org/build/758432
Is the package still needed, or could it be dropped in favour of ardour-4?

lablgtk is a package I added, but I do not know much about it; so if someone
could have a look, that would be nice:
   http://hydra.gnu.org/build/757556

More packages that fail (almost) everywhere:
azr3, mesa-utils, telepathy-glib;
and raincat on x86_64.

So whoever is interested by one of these packages :-)

Andreas

Here a solution is to add freeglut as an input to raincat.
Alternatively, we could propagate the freeglut input of ghc-glut.
What do(es) the specialist(s) think?

I think we can drop it and just leave Ardour 4.

Is there a reason someone might still prefer to use Ardour 3?

If not, please go ahead and remove it.

Hello 宋文武!

Thanks for taking care of leptonica. There is still a failing test on i686:
   http://hydra.gnu.org/build/759029
Does it make sense to also disable it, or would it be better to try to
understand the problem?

I'm not a specialist, but propagating the input sounds like the correct
way of doing it.  It makes sense to me that if you install ghc-glut,
you're going to need freeglut available.  I didn't see your patch
however; will you apply it or should i?

Also, strange that it worked for me before i pushed, as well as at one
point i looked at Hydra and all my Haskell packages were building
correctly.  Unreliable builds are the worst :(

My apologies, i re-read your email and i see you didn't mean that you
had a patch.  I'm in the process of testing the change, i'll push it in
at most an hour.

Sorry,

Yes, the patch was so obvious that I did not attach it. Thanks for checking
again and pushing it.

I did build it successful locally using '-s i686-linux' on my 1 core VPS.
so, I pushed a commit to disable parallel tests, hope it will works :-)

Nice! Just to make sure, this does not mean we can enable the other tests again?

Done. As ardour inherited from ardour-3, I needed to copy some package
fields over. I checked that ardour still compiles, but if it stopped working,
please complain.

This one does not build with newer mesa any more:
   https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91643

The patch referenced there is
   http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/demos/commit/?id=74443c6ee79f3251f643ea05e94df58183e37d0d
It is actually against the git repository and not against the tarball
and does not apply to the tarball sources. I took out all patches concerning
files CMakeLists.txt and .gitignore, but it still does not apply.
Since there are 1200 lines of patches, I am giving up.

As mention in the report, pass '--disable-egl' do the trick, thanks for
the information!

after this fix, I merge master into dbus-update.
Do you think it's time to merge back?

Sorry for all the trouble I made..

I was not quite sure if this flag did not disable too much; but probably it
simply disables things that have been removed. So if its dependencies still
build, this should be the good fix for now.

Yes, I think so. On my list, only lablgtk remains. I added it at some point
in time because it is needed for the graphical version of unison (gtk+
bindings for ocaml). But building unison with gtk+ requires more, and in
the meantime I got used to the command line version of unison.

Maybe now we should first wait for the dbus-update branch to build after
the master merge (which hopefully will not take too long), and then
merge back?

> Sorry for all the trouble I made..

No problem! I think it would have been more efficient to advance by smaller
steps. But altogether, we have made a big step forward, and your enthusiasm
for updating complicated packages is much appreciated.

Cheers,

Andreas

I think we should wait until we can fix the remaining problems.

> Sorry for all the trouble I made..

I don't think you've made any trouble.  On the contrary, I very much
appreciate the updates!

For what it's worth, I see no problem with doing several updates on a
branch and taking a few weeks to fix the resulting problems.  This is
very similar to what often happens on 'core-updates'.  Given the
limitations of our build farm, I see no better way to accomplish this
task.  Doing a full rebuild after each update would take far too long.

Hi!

After a bit of tedious work, Guitarix and lablgtk are now fixed.

I went ahead and merged the branch in ‘master’ in an attempt to move
forward, and because there are few remaining issues compared to before
the merge¹:

  1. azr3 doesn’t build (preliminary patch attached);

  2. guile-ssh/arm has a seemingly random test failure, probably due to
     parallel tests;

  3. python-statmodels has a test failure.

Help welcome on these and other build failures!

Thanks,
Ludo’.

At this point the remaining problems are few enough that it's probably
reasonable to merge 'dbus-update' into 'master'.
