It's quite likely that kile may be using xmkmf to detect X11 -- and so 
the problem wasn't detected because not all 10.5 boxes lack it.

The package has a maintainer, so he would be the one to talk with about 
updating the package.

Upgrading Twisted to 8.1?

Does anyone have an issue with upgrading Twisted to 8.1? Someone  
mentioned on the Buildbot list that Python 2.5 breaks some things in  
Twisted 2.1 (the current version), and nobody is listed as a  
maintainer for Twisted.

I'll take a stab at upgrading if nobody complains, but it isn't going  
to be pretty if I do it. Suggestions appreciated.

build gmp with -fexceptions

   The gcc developers are preparing to merge in the new graphite
branch for the gcc 4.4 release which utilizes the ppl, Parma 
Polyhedra Library, to optimize loops. The ppl 0.9 library wants
to have access to a gmp library built with the -fexceptions 
configure option. We will want to modify the fink gmp package
to do this (for folks who will want to test the gcc 4.4.0
snapshots under fink). FYI.

Along these lines, would anyone be upset if I merged all of Twisted
into a single twisted8 package?

I could go either way, really, but it seems easier to make one big
package than to update a bunch of smaller packages that all seem to
get updated at about the same time as the main tarball.

Since there aren't many Fink packages that use Twisted, I assume that
it was originally packaged for projects outside Fink. I would leave
the twisted2-* packages as-is for now, but later we could change them
to depend on twisted8.

Re: Upgrading Twisted to 8.1?

I'd personally vote in favor of keeping them separated - I like being 
able to only pull in the pieces that I want.

grace and libpng

Hi

After I built the current 10.4 unstable grace (maintained by nobody)  
the png support was missing. Configure:

checking for IJG JPEG software >= 61... yes
checking for libpng >= 0.9.6... no
--> PNG backend is disabled

It seems that it doesn't like the X11 libpng too much, although this  
is 1.2.x, too. Because after I appended a ':/sw/include' to the  
setCPPFLAGS (originally just 'SetCPPFLAGS: -I/usr/X11R6/include') in  
line 31 of the grace.info configure recognized the png lib. I'm using  
X11 2.2.3, according the change log there weren't changes in libpng to  
the current 2.3.0.

When libpng detection fails, could you check the config.log file to
see if there are any more details about why/how it's failing? Probably
begins with a line like:

  configure:16037:checking for libpng >= 0.9.6

and then some compiler calls and (hopefully!) error messages.

configure:16123: result: no
configure:16134: result: --> PNG backend is disabled

Checking /usr/x11/include/png.h, I found:

#ifdef PNG_USE_GLOBAL_ARRAYS
PNG_EXPORT_VAR (PNG_CONST char) png_libpng_ver[18];
   /* need room for 99.99.99beta99z */
#else
#define png_libpng_ver png_get_header_ver(NULL)
#endif

-and-

#define PNG_LIBPNG_VER_STRING "1.2.26"

And in Fink's version:

#ifdef PNG_USE_GLOBAL_ARRAYS
PNG_EXPORT_VAR (PNG_CONST char) png_libpng_ver[18];
   /* need room for 99.99.99beta99z */
#else
#define png_libpng_ver png_get_header_ver(NULL)
#endif

-and-

#define PNG_LIBPNG_VER_STRING "1.2.29"

I made my own copy of the conftest program and modified it to give  
output, with the following result:

vlib= 1.2.29, vinc= 1.2.26

So it appears to be mixing the header from X11 with the library from  
Fink.

I personally would prefer that they stay separate as this is more
consistent with both upstream, and other systems (such as debian). It
also means less has to be rebuilt/installed when updates are posted.

On an slightly related note, I have some .info files for twisted2.5 if
anybody is interested.
