[MacPorts] #52542: widelands-devel -- build from the latest revision of the bzr source tree
#52542: widelands-devel -- build from the latest revision of the bzr source tree -------------------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: ken.cunningham.webuse@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: submission | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.4 Keywords: | Port: widelands-devel -------------------------------------+-------------------------------- For your testing and interest, this port file builds the latest bzr version of widelands, currently a feature-frozen 1.9 version. Once the final 1.9 version is committed to tarball, this port file will change to that version. The widelands developers are hoping for feedback on this feature-frozen version prior to the release of 1.9. In my testing so far, this version works well on 10.11, but as of 20161007, segfaults on 10.6. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/52542> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for the Mac operating system

That's required. See ReproducibleBuilds#Fetchingthesourcefromarepository. Did you consider making this a subport of the widelands port, since it has much in common with it? It might be simpler to wait until after #52188 is resolved so we don't duplicate effort. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/52542#comment:1> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for the Mac operating system

I was aware of the reproducible builds wiki -- but would this approach not be better for a dev build? For a devel-build that they are looking for feedback on, this seemed appropriate. The code will change nightly, but that's what the devs want feedback on. Also -- help me out here if you can -- for the life of me I couldn't find my way through the bazaar source tree website to find a specific revision for widelands I can peg to, like I can for git or have done for a number of others. I know it is possible to specify a revision - their website says it is possible -- but yuck- it's buried in there somewhere deep enough that I couldn't stumble across it after an hour !! Have you been down that road before with bazaar?? Maybe you have to do it manually using the command-line tools and find a specific rev that way? Or maybe I didn't notice the right -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/52542#comment:2> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for the Mac operating system

The wiki page explains the many reasons why this doesn't work for MacPorts. You must specify a revision. If they update the source, you can update the source revision in the portfile, and increase the version field so that users will know a change was made.

Unfortunately I can't help here; I haven't used Bazaar. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/52542#comment:3> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for the Mac operating system

Whew! New portfile attached. Re: a subport. Well first thing is I don't know exactly how to do that yet :> But to bolster the idea of a separate portfile, the supporting ports were all changed to libsdl2, the fetch mechanism changed, and the file path for the icns file was altered, so there are a fair few changes from 1.8. Have a look and see what you think. If you feel a subport is the way to go, I'll be happy to look into that further. -- K -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/52542#comment:4> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for the Mac operating system

I think this portfile should be good to use for anyone who is wanting a recent widelands development version to test and use to give feedback to the widelands developers. Please consider for committing as widelands-devel. Once the final version of widelands 1.9 is released, I'll update the widelands port to that version using this as a template. -- K -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/52542#comment:5> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for the Mac operating system
