I'm starting to prepare the next release. Since 0.8.3 I've made a
number of changes to get working builds working on HPUX and OSF, and
made some of the Windows specific bits more robust. I'd like to check
that these haven't broken CYGWIN or IRIX builds, but I don't have
access to these platforms. If you are able to test, it'd be most
appreciated if you could. Download a CVS snapshot from here:
http://www.oligarchy.co.uk/xapian/HEAD/
Unpack, configure, and "make" then "make check". If it
fails, send a
log. If it doesn't, send details of the OS and compiler versions.
Cheers,
Olly
I notice that the debian omega package does not install any of the query templates that normally go in /var/lib/omega/ The build process is not putting them in debian/tmp The only makefile target that would do anything with these is "distdir" which works on DISTFILES which includes EXTRA_DIST which includes the templates and percentage gifs. I tried adding distdir as a target along with "install" in the install section of the rules file, but nothing extra seemed to appear in debian/tmp I'm still new-ish at building debian packages so leave off hear for advice, and feeling quite good at getting so far.

My only difficulty was in getting the Python bindings built. It (and maybe other bindings, but I didn't try them) needs to link to the query parser library, but that library isn't getting built as a DLL by the standard make process. Since i686 GCC won't link to a library this way, it bails out. I was able to tweak the makefile for the query parser library to link with -no-undefined and get a libxapianqueryparser-3.dll generated. Is this something that could be done in the standard makefile? Michael Sisolak msisolak@yahoo.com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
