**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Nov 26 02:59:57 2007 Nov 26 04:26:12 Here's a question, do people here generally run big or little endian installs? I run only in big endian mode. I wonder if there might be something there that causes my problems with the oom-killer. Nov 26 07:42:47 joshin: I believe it happens on little endian debian installs too. It seems to be a recent kernel thing - can you test on slugos 3.10 and see if it happens there? Nov 26 14:06:57 rwhitby: I should be able to do that. Nov 26 22:15:36 hi eno, i see you promoted libpar2. I have one suggestion about that package. Nov 26 22:16:24 rgerrits: since autobuilder is down, the promoted packages have not been built yet Nov 26 22:17:25 what is your suggestion? Nov 26 22:17:26 It's roughly based on the same sources as par2cmdline, so i think that the patch 'main-packet-fix.patch' from par2cmdline should also be applied to libpar2 Nov 26 22:18:01 that makes sense Nov 26 22:18:19 at least it solves all the " warning: ignoring packed attribute on unpacked non-POD field " warnings Nov 26 22:18:46 although i wish the upstream par2cmdline can use libpar2 Nov 26 22:19:20 rgerrits: since you have commit access, can you go ahead and make that change? Nov 26 22:19:45 i'll make that change Nov 26 22:20:59 thx Nov 26 22:25:36 hi, i also have a question, which relate to libpar2 a little Nov 26 22:26:13 is it a good practice to do platform-specific tasks in a package (.mk) file? Nov 26 22:26:50 for example, libpar2 is marked as not work on slugosbe, Nov 26 22:27:27 because of this, the package nzbget is also broken on slugosbe, Nov 26 22:28:10 hugbug: optware strategy has always been "make it work first (even though it's ugly), then generalize" Nov 26 22:28:12 but nzbget can be compiled without support for par-check, using configure-option "--disable-parcheck", Nov 26 22:28:50 would it be ok to put the following lines to nzbget.mk then: Nov 26 22:28:55 ifeq ($(OPTWARE_TARGET), slugosbe) Nov 26 22:28:55 NZBGET_CONFIGURE_OPTS=--disable-parcheck Nov 26 22:28:55 endif Nov 26 22:29:00 === Nov 26 22:29:09 yup, that's perfectly ok Nov 26 22:29:37 then i also need to make the variable "NZBGET_DEPENDS" adjustable, something like: Nov 26 22:30:06 ideally, when someone have time, we should find out the real reason why libpar2 is not compiling for slugosbe Nov 26 22:30:19 NZBGET_DEPENDS=ncurses, libxml2, libpar2 Nov 26 22:30:19 ifeq ($(OPTWARE_TARGET), slugosbe) Nov 26 22:30:19 NZBGET_DEPENDS=ncurses, libxml2 Nov 26 22:30:19 endif Nov 26 22:31:00 hugbug: that's the idea, you can also use "ifneq (slugosbe,...) Nov 26 22:31:11 NZBGET_DEPENDS +=, libpar2 Nov 26 22:31:12 " Nov 26 22:31:42 thanks! Nov 26 22:32:28 let's say later we found the real reason of no compiling is because of gcc4.1 Nov 26 22:32:39 i was trying to figure out why libpar2 does not work on slugosbe, but i could not get cross-compiling work for slugosbe :( Nov 26 22:33:04 we then should adjust Nov 26 22:33:14 how did you build the toolchain? Nov 26 22:33:39 i use asus wl500g router (oleg-branch), it compile ok, i have just recheck it today, Nov 26 22:33:58 you'll need to follow http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Optware/SlugosbeDevel Nov 26 22:35:36 but for slugosbe i become an error somthing regarding soft fpu emulation (i do not remeber the message exactly, unfortunately) Nov 26 22:37:08 thanks, i'll give it a try, i did not found this doc myslef Nov 26 23:02:18 hugbug: welcome to nslu2-linux development Nov 26 23:08:30 rwhitby: hi, Rod. make software work on many platforms is not always easy :) Nov 26 23:08:56 that's why we have eno ;-) Nov 26 23:09:23 hugbug: you're absolutely right Nov 26 23:10:24 the condition for --disable-parcheck and NZBGET_DEPENDS can be alittle more general Nov 26 23:11:03 ifneq (, $(filter libpar2, $(PACKAGES))) Nov 26 23:14:39 eno: great, it's much better Nov 26 23:18:16 hugbug: thx to rgerrits, libpar2 now builds for slugosbe as well Nov 26 23:21:56 eno: wow, this means i do not need to adjust nzbget.mk, right? :) Nov 26 23:22:12 right Nov 26 23:23:06 just promoted libpar2 and nzbget on slugosbe Nov 26 23:23:42 where is CIA these days? Nov 27 01:09:02 is anyone running eggdrop on their nslu2 ? Nov 27 01:13:26 eiffel ? Nov 27 01:13:36 I see you had the same problem I did **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Nov 27 02:59:57 2007
