[Bug 244537] New: drop gtk-sharp-1.x from the distribution
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=244537 Summary: drop gtk-sharp-1.x from the distribution Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Alpha 0plus Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: andreas.hanke@gmx-topmail.de QAContact: qa@suse.de gtk-sharp-1.x is unmaintained software. It's time to get rid of it, most other distributions did this already. Some time ago I asked for the list of affected packages, this was the result: CASA (cmashayekhi@novell.com) CASA_auth_token_client (jluciani@novell.com) CASA_auth_token_server (jluciani@novell.com) autopano-sift (sbrabec@suse.cz) banshee (gnome-maintainers@suse.de) beagle (gnome-maintainers@suse.de) beagle-index (gnome-maintainers@suse.de) blam (gnome-maintainers@suse.de) collect-desktop-files (coolo@suse.de) compdir (btimothy@novell.com) gecko-sharp (mono-maintainers@suse.de) gtksourceview-sharp2 (mono-maintainers@suse.de) helix-banshee (gnome-maintainers@suse.de) libbtctl (gnome-maintainers@suse.de) monodevelop (mono-maintainers@suse.de) tomboy (gnome-maintainers@suse.de) CASA: Is already fixed, uses gtk-sharp-2.x now. autopano-sift: No idea, this is not present in factory. Maybe an internal package? banshee, helix-banshee: Dependency must be bogus, as banshee does definitely not use gtk-sharp-1.x any more. Probably a packaging bug. beagle: Dito. blam: The package in factory does indeed still depend on gtk-sharp-1.x. Can be fixed by dropping blam (Imendio does _not_ maintain it any more) or by upgrading to the forked version from http://www.cmartin.tk/blam.html collect-desktop-files: Dependency can be removed if gtk-sharp-1.x is dropped. compdir: Not present in factory => Internal? gecko-sharp: Superseded by gecko-sharp2, only blam needs it. Should be handled together with blam. gtksourceview-sharp2: Dependency looks bogus to me. libbtctl: Only the unmaintained mono bindings in libbtctl-sharp need gtk-sharp-1.x. Will never be fixed because nobody uses them (not touched in CVS/SVN since 2 1/2 years), mono support can be dropped. monodevelop: Dependency doesn't look correct to me. tomboy: Dependency was wrong and has been fixed recently. I'm reporting this in the GNOME component because most affected packages happen to be GNOME packages.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=244537 ------- Comment #3 from andreas.hanke@gmx-topmail.de 2007-02-12 03:48 MST ------- Maybe we can start trying to find out which packages have a dependency without actually using it. That way, we can first reduce the dependencies, which is always a good thing even if gtk-sharp-1.x will stay at the end. gtksourceview-sharp2 had a wrong BuildRequires on gtk-sharp-gapi. If this is now fixed, I think it also fixes monodevelop, does it? Seems that monodevelop just inherited it from gtksourceview-sharp2. banshee/helix-banshee: Do you know why this happens? I cannot find anything suspicious in BuildRequires. blam: Already switched to gtk-sharp-2.x in CVS/SVN, but Imendio will not do another release (http://developer.imendio.com/projects/blam). You should do something about this package (drop it or switch to Carlos Martín Nieto's version) because 1.8.2 is 1 1/2 years old and won't become better. You can find an upgrade attempt in the build service at home:andreas_hanke. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=244537 ------- Comment #7 from andreas.hanke@gmx-topmail.de 2007-02-12 04:21 MST ------- OK. I just checked autopano-sift and the latest version does indeed still depend on gtk-sharp-1.x. So if you want to support this, you won't be able to drop gtk-sharp, but I still think that moving as many packages as possible away from it is a good idea. I also think that gtk-sharp shouldn't be on the 5 CDs, the space there is too valuable for rarely needed packages. FTP should be sufficient. Another question is the devel_mono pattern. It currently installs both versions, but for development of new applications, only the newer version should be used, the older version is used for running old applications. It would affect the following packages in the devel_mono pattern: gecko-sharp gtk-sharp-complete gtk-sharp-gapi -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
