No, the "static" calibre undoubtedly contains libs that are already present in my distro, and the distro-package is *made* for . -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Aha. Could you please post a link to that? I'm interested. (I don't even know what LWM is)

Thankyou!

I see there are security concerns, but there is also mention in the article that openSUSE version might not address them properly.

On the other hand, the packaged versions are well behind the released version (0.9.8).

For 12.2 there is the official release at 0.8.63, and some home repos having 0.9.7. Do those home repos solve the security issues?

For 12.1 there is 0.8.23 and the Documentation:Tools repo has 0.8.66. Only the home repos stay current.

For 11.4 there was 0.7.45; home repos are old, and I see no evergreen version.

Factory has 0.9.5.

So, for practical purposes, users may have to use the upstream version if they want a reasonable current version, and security goes to the ditch! :-(

Or they use the version from Documentation:Tools repository. -- Frederic Crozat <fcrozat@suse.com> SUSE -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

It is old.

Plus, there is none at that repo for 12.2 or 11.4, according to the search utility.

It is not, Sacha updated it 3 hours ago (and before that, it was at 0.9.7): https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=calibre&project=Documentation%3ATools And there is a repo for 12.2. -- Frederic Crozat <fcrozat@suse.com> SUSE -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Quoting "Carlos E. R." <robin.listas@telefonica.net>:

Your link says that the build for 12.1 is "unresolvable".

Also, evergreen is disabled, and I use evergreen on another computer.

Well... The author of calibre uses that magic mount wrapper to reach each and every dist out there, without having to worry... and calibre requires Qt 4.9.1 :) => which is the reason you can't build the current version on evergreen on even 12.1 Optionally, of course, the .spec file is wrongly requiring this version of Qt (I don't have the means/will to verify this claim).
