DEPRECATE desktop/evolution-data-server dependencies in desktop/gnome-panel
Last modified: 2018-07-11 22:45:52 UTC
DEPRECATE desktop/evolution-data-server dependencies in desktop/gnome-panel because it is not strictly necessary to build a fully functionally gnome-panel binaries. To test just delete the voice desktop/evolution-data-server from the LIBDEPS in desktop/gnome-panel/Makefile and you'll build a fully functionally gnome-panel environment. This prevent to add entropy during build step due to heavy evolution dependencies tracking stuffs. My solution should be to provide into Makefile a commented alternative like this: GARNAME = gnome-panel GARVERSION = 2.24.0 CATEGORIES = desktop DISTFILES = $(GARNAME)-$(GARVERSION).tar.bz2 # Uncomment to activate evolution-data-server dependencies #LIBDEPS = platform/libgnomeui platform/gnome-vfs platform/libglade \ desktop/libwnck desktop/gnome-desktop desktop/gnome-doc-utils \ desktop/gnome-menus desktop/evolution-data-server desktop/libgweather LIBDEPS = platform/libgnomeui platform/gnome-vfs platform/libglade \ desktop/libwnck desktop/gnome-desktop desktop/gnome-doc-utils \ desktop/gnome-menus desktop/evolution-data-server desktop/libgweather DESCRIPTION = gnome-panel define BLURB #FIXME: blurb goes here endef CONFIGURE_SCRIPTS = $(WORKSRC)/configure BUILD_SCRIPTS = $(WORKSRC)/Makefile INSTALL_SCRIPTS = $(WORKSRC)/Makefile CONFIGURE_ARGS = $(DIRPATHS) include ../category.mk # allow us to use libgweather, even though it is unstable CFLAGS += -DGWEATHER_I_KNOW_THIS_IS_UNSTABLE
GARNOME has not seen any code changes since 2008: https://git.gnome.org/browse/archive/garnome/log This project is not under active development anymore and got archived in Git. It is currently unlikely that there will be any further active development. Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect reality. Please feel free to reopen this bug report in the future if anyone takes the responsibility for active development again.
