I wanted to test the installation of info pages, but unfortunately all the source code programs I downloaded either uses scons, or a custom installation script. If you can point me to a GNU compatible tarball which includes an info file, I can verify the correct installation of info files.

You can check with most of the GNU software you find at ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu Some small ones (but with info pages): grep, gawk, idutils, a2ps, ... There are many non-gnu packages which work with sourceinstall, but often they do not provide info pages. However, during installation install-info is only called as fallback if the package does not install info pages properly. install-info is much more relevant during upgrades/downgrades/uninstallation, and it is the only way to keep info files and index up to date (since make uninstall from the package is not trusted and almost never used). So if you want to run a relevant test, you should include upgrade and uninstall actions.

This fixes a lot of problems with the upgrade actions in the programs. * consider directory dependencies. Previously only file and link dependencies were considered. * improved info files handling. * add support for prefix redirection as discouraged fallback if none of the good staging installation methods (DESTDIR, INSTALL_ROOT) are found. sourceinstall: * more parseable output from the detection actions (-1, -2, -3). * --check action does not print all installed files anymore, since that functionality is already provided by --export-list - Only report if there are missing ones. * add support for prefix redirection (see above) under --force. sourceinstall-gtk: * relaxed GTK requirement from 2.6 to 2.4. If 2.6 is available, some more niceties are available. * new dialogs for messages * new optional command line argument to quickly start a package add action. * support for prefix redirection (see above) is available, but the user must confirm, since its use is discouraged. many bugfixes are also in.

Took md5 hash of the a2ps.info. - I upgraded a2ps version to a2ps-4.12, info file upgraded correctly, md5 has changed. - I removed a2ps, info file was removed. ( Although man page remained and "info a2ps" showed the man page ) - I installed a2ps-4.12, md5 the same as the md5 after 4.10->4.12 upgrade. - I downgraded from 4.12 to 4.10, md5 same as the fresh installed 4.10 - I removed a2ps-4.10, again, info file is removed but man page is not. I guess the patch works :) But the issue with man pages seem strange and may require further investigation. Sourceinstall issues "/bin/rm -f /usr/local/man/man1/a2ps.1" but the man page that stayed is in "/usr/local/share/man/man1/a2ps.1", I used "--prefix=/usr/local" during the test. - Gokdeniz _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ From MAILER-DAEMON Sun Aug 06 15:08:25 2006 Received: from mailman by lists.gnu.org with archive (Exim 4.43) id 1G9nz7-0001RF-OR for mharc-bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Sun, 06 Aug 2006 15:08:25 -0400 Received: from mailman by lists.gnu.org with tmda-scanned (Exim 4.43) id 1G9nz5-0001Pk-UN for bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Sun, 06 Aug 2006 15:08:23 -0400 Received: from exim by lists.gnu.org with spam-scanned (Exim 4.43) id 1G9nz3-0001PX-J8 for bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Sun, 06 Aug 2006 15:08:22 -0400 Received: from [199.232.76.173] (helo=monty-python.gnu.org) by lists.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.43) id 1G9nz3-0001PU-CE for bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Sun, 06 Aug 2006 15:08:21 -0400 Received: from [199.232.41.3] (helo=savannah.gnu.org) by monty-python.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.52) id 1G9o37-0003uL-SM for bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Sun, 06 Aug 2006 15:12:33 -0400 Received: from savannah.gnu.org ([127.0.0.1]) by savannah.gnu.org with smtp (Exim 3.36 #1 (Debian)) id 1G9nyu-00025g-00; Sun, 06 Aug 2006 15:08:12 -0400 Received: by savannah.gnu.org (sSMTP sendmail emulation); Sun, 6 Aug 2006 19:08:12 +0000 Date: Sun, 6 Aug 2006 19:08:12 +0000 To: Claudio Fontana , bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org From: =?UTF-8?B?R8O2a2Rlbml6?= =?UTF-8?B?S2FyYWRhxJ8=?= X-Savane-Server: savannah.gnu.org:443 [199.232.41.3] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain;charset=UTF-8 X-Savane-Project: sourceinstall X-Savane-Tracker: bugs X-Savane-Item-ID: 17235 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; tr-TR; rv:1.8.0.5) Gecko/20060731 Ubuntu/dapper-security Firefox/1.5.0.5 X-Apparently-From: 85.98.58.145 (Savane authenticated user hayalci) Message-Id: <20060806-190811.sv51230.69454@savannah.gnu.org> References: <20060730-122237.sv51230.68413@savannah.gnu.org> <20060730-171629.sv39435.37751@savannah.gnu.org> <20060731-093147.sv51230.81663@savannah.gnu.org> <20060731-103346.sv0.88224@savannah.gnu.org> <20060731-160335.sv39435.42052@savannah.gnu.org> <20060801-095632.sv51230.69552@savannah.gnu.org> <20060801-154422.sv39435.70860@savannah.gnu.org> <20060806-132158.sv51230.56265@savannah.gnu.org> In-Reply-To: <20060806-132158.sv51230.56265@savannah.gnu.org> Cc: Subject: [bug-sourceinstall] [bug #17235] install-info workaround on debian based systems X-BeenThere: bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: the one and only place to report bugs in GNU Source Installer List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 06 Aug 2006 19:08:24 -0000 Follow-up Comment #8, bug #17235 (project sourceinstall): I installed version 2.2, and it had no problem with install-info.

The vanilla a2ps package indeed creates ${prefix}/man/man1/a2ps.1, so I think you might have another installation of a2ps in your system, with a mandir=/usr/local/share/man . Or did you specify a custom mandir during installation? If the problem with manpages persists, please open a separate bug report, possibly with all the verbose output of sourceinstall (--verbose), or the Save Log output of sourceinstall-gtk. Thanks for the test!

For example, I use the following with sylpheed-claws: CONFIGURED: ./configure --disable-ipv6 --disable-aspell --disable-ldap --disable-jpilot --disable-spamassassin-plugin --disable-clamav-plugin --disable-libetpan --disable-gnomeprint --prefix=/usr/local/ But when I tried to upgrade, sourceinstall-gtk asked again what options I'd like (I'd like the above options already saved in the respective sourceinstall package information file). The upgrade process could "pre-check" the saved options. And a suggestion: regarding more, less or renamed options, sourceinstall-gtk could simply highlight (or show in red or some different color...) the new options (it doesn't matter if it was renamed... it can be interpreted as new). If some option doesn't exist anymore, sourceinstall-gtk could warn that it's removing the option or simply remove from the package file... just some ideas... To sum up: 1) if there are new options, it could be highlighted (renamed options would be showed as new options) 2) if some option was removed, then it would simply discard them, because it doesn't make sense to use non-existent option But if you implement just the pre-check feature, it will help a lot ;-) Thank you very much! _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ From MAILER-DAEMON Tue Aug 08 16:57:35 2006 Received: from mailman by lists.gnu.org with archive (Exim 4.43) id 1GAYdr-0004Vs-JH for mharc-bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Tue, 08 Aug 2006 16:57:35 -0400 Received: from mailman by lists.gnu.org with tmda-scanned (Exim 4.43) id 1GAYdp-0004SP-Tr for bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Tue, 08 Aug 2006 16:57:33 -0400 Received: from exim by lists.gnu.org with spam-scanned (Exim 4.43) id 1GAYdl-0004Nj-A4 for bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Tue, 08 Aug 2006 16:57:33 -0400 Received: from [199.232.76.173] (helo=monty-python.gnu.org) by lists.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.43) id 1GAYdl-0004Ng-53 for bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Tue, 08 Aug 2006 16:57:29 -0400 Received: from [199.232.41.3] (helo=savannah.gnu.org) by monty-python.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.52) id 1GAYiI-0003xZ-Dw for bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Tue, 08 Aug 2006 17:02:10 -0400 Received: from savannah.gnu.org ([127.0.0.1]) by savannah.gnu.org with smtp (Exim 3.36 #1 (Debian)) id 1GAYdX-0004sh-00; Tue, 08 Aug 2006 16:57:15 -0400 Received: by savannah.gnu.org (sSMTP sendmail emulation); Tue, 8 Aug 2006 18:57:13 -0200 Date: Tue, 8 Aug 2006 18:57:13 -0200 To: =?UTF-8?B?RMOibmllbA==?= Fraga , bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org From: =?UTF-8?B?RMOibmllbA==?= Fraga X-Savane-Server: savannah.gnu.org:443 [199.232.41.3] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain;charset=UTF-8 X-Savane-Project: sourceinstall X-Savane-Tracker: bugs X-Savane-Item-ID: 17375 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i586; en-US; rv:1.8.1b1) Gecko/20060801 BonEcho/2.0b1 X-Apparently-From: 200.207.206.233 (Savane authenticated user dfraga) Message-Id: <20060808-185712.sv26010.88977@savannah.gnu.org> References: In-Reply-To: Cc: Subject: [bug-sourceinstall] [bug #17375] Assume default prefix from source X-BeenThere: bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: the one and only place to report bugs in GNU Source Installer List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 08 Aug 2006 20:57:34 -0000 URL: Summary: Assume default prefix from source Project: GNU Source Installer Submitted by: dfraga Submitted on: Tuesday 08/08/2006 at 18:57 Category: User Interface Severity: 3 - Normal Status: None Assigned to: None Originator Email: Open/Closed: Open Additional Notes: _______________________________________________________ Details: If I don't define a prefix for sourceinstall and ran it as root, it will assume something like prefix=/ I'd like that instead, sourceinstall used the default prefix from te source.

Of course I can change the prefix in Preferences but it would be easier if I keep prefix value empty and use the default prefix from the source I'm installing. Thanks. Ps: other solution would be if I could just define an specific prefix for Samba in the sourceinstall-gtk interface. It could be when sourceinstall-gtk asks what configure options I'd like. It could have a --prefix option so I could supersede the default prefix in Preferences. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ From MAILER-DAEMON Thu Aug 24 21:53:44 2006 Received: from mailman by lists.gnu.org with archive (Exim 4.43) id 1GGQtD-0005bU-MO for mharc-bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Thu, 24 Aug 2006 21:53:43 -0400 Received: from mailman by lists.gnu.org with tmda-scanned (Exim 4.43) id 1GGQtB-0005aQ-EY for bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Thu, 24 Aug 2006 21:53:41 -0400 Received: from exim by lists.gnu.org with spam-scanned (Exim 4.43) id 1GGQtA-0005a9-4B for bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Thu, 24 Aug 2006 21:53:40 -0400 Received: from [199.232.76.173] (helo=monty-python.gnu.org) by lists.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.43) id 1GGQt9-0005a3-UK for bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Thu, 24 Aug 2006 21:53:39 -0400 Received: from [199.232.41.3] (helo=savannah.gnu.org) by monty-python.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.52) id 1GGR1L-0004E0-1d for bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Thu, 24 Aug 2006 22:02:07 -0400 Received: from savannah.gnu.org ([127.0.0.1]) by savannah.gnu.org with smtp (Exim 3.36 #1 (Debian)) id 1GGQt3-0000ob-00; Thu, 24 Aug 2006 21:53:33 -0400 Received: by savannah.gnu.org (sSMTP sendmail emulation); Thu, 24 Aug 2006 23:53:33 -0200 Date: Thu, 24 Aug 2006 23:53:33 -0200 To: =?UTF-8?B?RMOibmllbA==?= Fraga , bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org From: =?UTF-8?B?RMOibmllbA==?= Fraga X-Savane-Server: savannah.gnu.org:80 [199.232.41.3] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain;charset=UTF-8 X-Savane-Project: sourceinstall X-Savane-Tracker: bugs X-Savane-Item-ID: 17520 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i586; en-US; rv:1.8.1b1) Gecko/20060801 BonEcho/2.0b1 X-Apparently-From: 200.207.206.233 (Savane authenticated user dfraga) Message-Id: <20060824-235332.sv26010.6609@savannah.gnu.org> References: In-Reply-To: Cc: Subject: [bug-sourceinstall] [bug #17520] Upgrade problem?

Thanks. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ From MAILER-DAEMON Fri Aug 25 02:35:12 2006 Received: from mailman by lists.gnu.org with archive (Exim 4.43) id 1GGVHc-0008Ah-7T for mharc-bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Fri, 25 Aug 2006 02:35:12 -0400 Received: from mailman by lists.gnu.org with tmda-scanned (Exim 4.43) id 1GGVHa-00088B-5I for bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Fri, 25 Aug 2006 02:35:10 -0400 Received: from exim by lists.gnu.org with spam-scanned (Exim 4.43) id 1GGVHU-00083e-B0 for bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Fri, 25 Aug 2006 02:35:05 -0400 Received: from [199.232.76.173] (helo=monty-python.gnu.org) by lists.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.43) id 1GGVHU-00083N-6b for bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Fri, 25 Aug 2006 02:35:04 -0400 Received: from [199.232.41.3] (helo=savannah.gnu.org) by monty-python.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.52) id 1GGVPi-0006Gc-4B for bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Fri, 25 Aug 2006 02:43:34 -0400 Received: from savannah.gnu.org ([127.0.0.1]) by savannah.gnu.org with smtp (Exim 3.36 #1 (Debian)) id 1GGVHG-0003g5-00; Fri, 25 Aug 2006 02:34:50 -0400 Received: by savannah.gnu.org (sSMTP sendmail emulation); Fri, 25 Aug 2006 06:34:50 +0000 Date: Fri, 25 Aug 2006 06:34:50 +0000 To: =?UTF-8?B?RMOibmllbA==?= Fraga , Claudio Fontana , bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org From: Claudio Fontana X-Savane-Server: savannah.gnu.org:443 [199.232.41.3] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain;charset=UTF-8 X-Savane-Project: sourceinstall X-Savane-Tracker: bugs X-Savane-Item-ID: 17520 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.4) Gecko/20060508 Firefox/1.5.0.4 X-Apparently-From: 80.218.225.13 (Savane authenticated user sick_soul) Message-Id: <20060825-063449.sv39435.4453@savannah.gnu.org> References: <20060824-235332.sv26010.6609@savannah.gnu.org> In-Reply-To: <20060824-235332.sv26010.6609@savannah.gnu.org> Cc: Subject: [bug-sourceinstall] [bug #17520] Upgrade problem?

The real upgrade has been handled correctly, so it is safe to just remove the old package files in ~/.sourceinstall/packages/ A fix is already in CVS, and I have now updated the cvs builds. It would help if you could verify that upgrade now works correctly with the current CVS code (or the cvs builds).

Example: 1) if I install Samba using ./configure; make; make install it will be installed in /usr/local/samba. For example: fraga@tux /usr/local/samba$ ls bin/ include/ lib/ man/ private/ sbin/ swat/ var/ 2) if I install Samba using sourceinstall, it will install samba in /usr/local instead of /usr/local/samba. This way I have the above directories below /usr/local (wrong) and not /usr/local/samba (correct). The default prefix is /usr/local, but for Samba it should be /usr/local/samba (default prefix using manual install thru configure; make; make install). So sourceinstall could respect the default prefix from the package instead of always forcing /usr/local. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ From MAILER-DAEMON Fri Aug 25 13:44:08 2006 Received: from mailman by lists.gnu.org with archive (Exim 4.43) id 1GGfiy-0005YK-3C for mharc-bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Fri, 25 Aug 2006 13:44:08 -0400 Received: from mailman by lists.gnu.org with tmda-scanned (Exim 4.43) id 1GGfix-0005YC-5b for bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Fri, 25 Aug 2006 13:44:07 -0400 Received: from exim by lists.gnu.org with spam-scanned (Exim 4.43) id 1GGfiv-0005XZ-P8 for bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Fri, 25 Aug 2006 13:44:06 -0400 Received: from [199.232.76.173] (helo=monty-python.gnu.org) by lists.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.43) id 1GGfiv-0005XR-MM for bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Fri, 25 Aug 2006 13:44:05 -0400 Received: from [199.232.41.3] (helo=savannah.gnu.org) by monty-python.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.52) id 1GGfrF-0006jm-U5 for bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org; Fri, 25 Aug 2006 13:52:42 -0400 Received: from savannah.gnu.org ([127.0.0.1]) by savannah.gnu.org with smtp (Exim 3.36 #1 (Debian)) id 1GGfih-00040Q-00; Fri, 25 Aug 2006 13:43:51 -0400 Received: by savannah.gnu.org (sSMTP sendmail emulation); Fri, 25 Aug 2006 15:43:51 -0200 Date: Fri, 25 Aug 2006 15:43:51 -0200 To: =?UTF-8?B?RMOibmllbA==?= Fraga , Claudio Fontana , bug-sourceinstall@gnu.org From: =?UTF-8?B?RMOibmllbA==?= Fraga X-Savane-Server: savannah.gnu.org:80 [199.232.41.3] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain;charset=UTF-8 X-Savane-Project: sourceinstall X-Savane-Tracker: bugs X-Savane-Item-ID: 17520 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i586; en-US; rv:1.8.1b1) Gecko/20060801 BonEcho/2.0b1 X-Apparently-From: 200.207.206.233 (Savane authenticated user dfraga) Message-Id: <20060825-154351.sv26010.77209@savannah.gnu.org> References: <20060824-235332.sv26010.6609@savannah.gnu.org> <20060825-063449.sv39435.4453@savannah.gnu.org> In-Reply-To: <20060825-063449.sv39435.4453@savannah.gnu.org> Cc: Subject: [bug-sourceinstall] [bug #17520] Upgrade problem?
