If the latter, then we can get by with just Requires: gedit since we're installing the plugin files into a directory owned by the gedit package (library dependencies are picked up automatically by RPM). If the former, though, it will have to be %define gedit_version %{pkg-config --modversion gedit-2.20} Requires: gedit >= %{gedit_version} Thanks in advance, -- Michel Salim GPG key ID: 78884778 IRC: hircus Package Sponsor, Fedora Project From adam at yorba.org Mon Aug 24 16:04:15 2009 From: adam at yorba.org (Adam Dingle) Date: Mon, 24 Aug 2009 09:04:15 -0700 Subject: [Valencia] Valencia packaging query In-Reply-To: <1251067072.6118.93.camel@mikmaq.localdomain> References: <1251067072.6118.93.camel@mikmaq.localdomain> Message-ID: <4A92B9FF.3010504@yorba.org> Michel, that's great news that you're packaging Valencia for Fedora! Valencia does not actually depend on gtksourcecompletion at this time (Valencia displays autocompletion boxes and calltips by itself). Valencia is known to work with gedit 2.24.0 through the current version (2.27.4). It might work with older versions of gedit; we haven't tried. I doubt that anyone using Valencia will have a gedit older than 2.24.0 anyway. By the way, we're planning to release Valencia 0.3.0 some time in the next two weeks. It will include a side bar listing all symbols in the current project, plus some smaller features and lots of bug fixes. It would be great if this version could make it into the distribution, though I don't know what your own deadlines are. Hope this helps. Let us know if you have any more questions! cheers adam Michel Salim wrote: > Hullo, > > I am preparing Valencia for inclusion in the Fedora distribution of > Linux, and have a question about its gedit dependency: > > - Does Valencia depend on a specific version of gedit, or > - Does it use gedit-2.20.pc only to pick up its gtksourcecompletion > dependency? > > If the latter, then we can get by with just > > Requires: gedit > > since we're installing the plugin files into a directory owned by the > gedit package (library dependencies are picked up automatically by RPM). > > If the former, though, it will have to be > > %define gedit_version %{pkg-config --modversion gedit-2.20} > Requires: gedit >= %{gedit_version} > > Thanks in advance, > > From michael.silvanus at gmail.com Mon Aug 24 20:41:01 2009 From: michael.silvanus at gmail.com (Michel Salim) Date: Mon, 24 Aug 2009 16:41:01 -0400 Subject: [Valencia] Valencia packaging query In-Reply-To: <4A92B9FF.3010504@yorba.org> References: <1251067072.6118.93.camel@mikmaq.localdomain> <4A92B9FF.3010504@yorba.org> Message-ID: <1251146461.15263.16.camel@erdos.localdomain> Hi Adam, On Mon, 2009-08-24 at 09:04 -0700, Adam Dingle wrote: > Michel, > > that's great news that you're packaging Valencia for Fedora! > > Valencia does not actually depend on gtksourcecompletion at this time > (Valencia displays autocompletion boxes and calltips by itself). > Valencia is known to work with gedit 2.24.0 through the current version > (2.27.4).

My mistake. I also package Vala Toys for gedit, an earlier Vala plugin, that makes use of the latter. It's really quite impressive how Valencia has much cleaner dependencies and does the same thing, actually. Great interface too. Thanks for the verification. I was sure there was no library dependency, but I did not know if there is any other feature of gedit that Valencia depended on. The only problem might be when shipping for RHEL 5 / CentOS -- it has gedit 2.16 ! > By the way, we're planning to release Valencia 0.3.0 some time in the > next two weeks.

No strict deadline -- we frown on updating libraries when they introduce ABI breaks on stable releases, but for everything else, the only concern is stability, really. We do have freeze periods before alpha/beta/rc releases, but I can always slot it in afterwards. Thanks, -- Michel
