Change libtool? X-BeenThere: freebsd-gnome@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: GNOME for FreeBSD -- porting and maintaining List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 25 Jul 2004 18:16:30 -0000 Hello, I am doing the clean installtion of everything and I noticed that few apps are installing *.la files. ========================================== % find /usr -name "*.la" /usr/local/lib/libfreetype.la /usr/local/lib/libfam.la /usr/compat/linux/usr/lib/libpopt.la # Don't mind this... /usr/X11R6/lib/libfontconfig.la /usr/X11R6/lib/gtk-2.0/2.4.0/engines/libpixmap.la /usr/X11R6/lib/gtk-2.0/2.4.0/engines/libredmond95.la /usr/X11R6/lib/gtk-2.0/2.4.0/engines/libmetal.la /usr/X11R6/share/gnome/xmodmap/xmodmap.la # Don't mind this; it's a language file. ========================================== If I change libtool 13 -> 15 and they don't install the *.la files anymore. I only tested installed them in jail, but I haven't test run them yet. My GNOME install didn't finish, because of new gnomevfs2 broke the gnomecentercontrol by change the API/ABI. However, I am not skill with libtool stuff so is it ok for me to change them to use libtool 15? ========================================== devel/fam = 13 -> 15 (I will contract to the maintainer.) print/freetype2 = 13 -> 15 x11-fonts/fontconfig = 13 -> 15 x11-themes/gtk-engines2 = 13 -> 15 and remove files/patch-configure ========================================== One thing that I am not sure how we should deal with the mistake of those that will not be able to remove the *.la files, since they aren't in the pkg-plist.
