Summary: Review Request: warzone2100 - Innovative 3D real-time strategy https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=221065 ------- Additional Comments From faucamp@xxxxxxxxxx 2007-01-18 02:13 EST ------- (In reply to comment #19) > I mailed to devels of warzone and I have got a answer that the run version 2.0.5 > on x86_64 is impossible and they are working to fix it in v2.1. I'm glad to see you've contacted upstream about this. :-) Do they have any estimated release dates or progress indicators? Perhaps some of the fixes already exist in CVS/SVN somewhere? I can see some > solutions: > 1. The package is accepted with ExcludeArch (and it will be removed when it will > run on 64-bits). This is basically much what I meant in comment #18, only with a specific "64-bit issue" bug report against the package after it has been accepted. So this is the course of action we'll take if no-one opposes the idea. > 2. The package is "waiting" for next release. IMHO this wouldn't solve anything really. > 3. I can try to patch it, but I have not x86_64 and it is very hard, because the > devels wrote me that running is imposs., so there is a lot of code to changing > (my programming skills might be insufficient). It's not impossible, but it's certainly time-consuming and non-trivial. Not having access to an x86_64 box to play around with doesn't help, either. > I have not any access to ppc machine, the "build test" was did by one person on > IRC (thanks to him) Indeed, thanks. Could you possibly ask him to just quickly test whether the program actually runs on PPC (considering it *does* actually compile on x86_64 also, with a few tweaks). > > >therefore my > > current recommendation is to exclude x86_64 for now, add it to "devel", and file > > a bug report against warzone2100 detailing the 32-bit-windows-to-64-bit-linux > > pointer issues (see Bug #158646 for an example). > I can not a publish the package in FE without block "FE-ACCEPT". > See the next sentence in that comment: "...it might be solved quicker if the package is accepted for devel/i386 and ppc". This would be the "FE-ACCEPT". ;-) The only real blocker for me at this stage (scanning through this quickly) is whether the program actually runs correctly on PPC. Please ask your ppc contact to verify this, or ask fedora-extras-list for assistance. After we have confirmation, I'll do a 2nd review and approve the package for i386 and PPC if it is fit. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
