Hi, Argyll CMS is now packaged in Fedora Devel and should be included in Fedora 10 (missed Fedora 10 Alpha though) http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/devel/argyllcms/ http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=57682 I must say it I always take a new Argyll release with lots expectations, and not a little dread, since it has consistently proved a pig to package. (and this version is no different). Thus, I don't plan a backport to previous Fedora releases. Many thanks to Graeme for his continued efforts and Alastair M. Robinson for removing a huge thorn from my side and autotooling it all. Anyway, some packaging notes. I've applied: — V1.0.1_patches.txt (not easy to find, not referenced anywhere) — argyll_V1.0.1_autotools.patch.gz But I had to disable parallel building, Alastair it would be great if make -jX worked – http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/devel/argyllcms/argyllcms-1.0.1-printf.patch This patch had already been submitted but some parts haven't been merged by Graeme yet — http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/devel/argyllcms/argyllcms-1.0.1-remove-libusb-fork-check.patch Why oh why do we have to do this? I Notice Mandriva had to do something similar. As we said before if there's a specific problem in libusb report it and we'll get it fixed — http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/devel/argyllcms/argyllcms-1.0.1-legal.patch While most sane countries (mine included) do not recognize software patents, there's no need to wave a red flag before patent lawyers. (esp. since cameras are now used instead of scanners). — http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/devel/argyllcms/argyllcms-1.0.1-19-color.fdi This includes Graeme's last changes. I'm not sure if a blanket ACL for serial devices is good, if Devid Zeuthen complains I'll drop it Also, the install routine change the timestamps of the files in /usr/share/color/argyll/ref/. We'd really like those files to have an invariant timestamp as long as they're not modified. Anyway, we build with a fairly recent toolchain and very anal build flags. I expect the non-i386 build logs at http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=57682 include many interesting warnings about code that should be cleaned up. I hope Argyll CMS will continue to normalise and will reach the no-patching-needed stage someday. Best regards, -- Nicolas Mailhot
