I've spent some time reading about the factory process, etc. - but I couldn't find a simple way to get two issues in (I'm sure I'll know more later). This year I've done a lot of testing of a single package, PLPLOT (https://sourceforge.net/p/plplot/) , on three distinct platforms (MSYS2-mingw-w64, Cygwin, OpenSuse 13.2), each hosted on my computer, for compatibility with the officially installed packages. Two simple issues I'm pretty confident deserve advancement are: 1. Update libharu - its version is 2.2.1 from the Suse repository. This version produces an error in the plplot test usage (cause unknown, but error no longer there when I use libharu 2.3.0, as is, compiled out of the box). https://github.com/libharu/libharu/archive/RELEASE_2_3_0.zip 2. bring in the D language compiler gdc in place of the "dmd" version. GDC has been successfully incorporated into the Debian and Fedora packages. When it grows up it should be a regular part of the GCC suite. http://www.digitalmars.com/d/archives/digitalmars/D/GDC_and_Fedora_20_22046… Regards, Greg Jung -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org
