Hi, if everyone agree, we could proceed today with release 2.6.2.0, as expected... Autopackage stuff and mac bundle could be not fully ready but they can be added later. If proceeding with release, I'll package wxLua this afternoon and then upload it to SF servers. Just let me know. Also, it's important to create a branch, maybe RELEASE_2_6_2_0. Let me know, Francesco |

Hi Francesco, Last time i tested MSW all looked fine, that was a few days ago. Next desaster struck my notebook with all mail etc., it overheated and broke down. So i have bin bussy trying to get my data back from its harddisk :-( Anyway, i think it is still save to go ahead from the MSW point of view. I will test the release itself again next, and if something is not right, we can always make a next release ;-) How are we going to celebrate this big event? :-) Klaas Francesco Montorsi wrote: > Hi, > if everyone agree, we could proceed today with release 2.6.2.0, as > expected... > > Autopackage stuff and mac bundle could be not fully ready but they can > be added later. > > If proceeding with release, I'll package wxLua this afternoon and then > upload it to SF servers.

Just let me know. I think you should release it... The wxMac stuff doesn't work fully yet, but if we release a package then more people can test it and provide bug reports ? And all win ? And it doesn't need to be a Mac disk image / package yet, if you release a tarball then the "Unix" repositories can pick it up ? (that would be "DarwinPorts" and "Fink" projects, for Mac - http://www.darwinports.org | http://fink.sourceforge.net/) Please include the wxLua.r.gz file, though. It'll help those. (as it's the easiest way to get it going from a $PREFIX/bin) --anders |

And all win ? yes, exactly. The idea is this.

Looks something like this: http://www.darwinports.org/darwinports/dports/graphics/wxWidgets/ Portfile Fink is like Debian, so they require for a maintainer to volunteer first. --anders |

I've done various compile tests on wxMSW, wxGTK. Everything should be working there. I'm now testing through SF compile farm the AMD64 builds (but first I need to get wx built there and it will take long...) Now I'll study some electronics (my university exams are coming closer and closer!) then at about GMT 18 I'll make the branch, the packages and upload everything on SF if I don't hear anything. John, we should also make the release of wxStEdit... Francesco |

Ok, I'll try to see if I have some time to do it today. I'm going to be pretty busy, out of town as well, for the next week. -John Labenski |

Hi, finally I've tagged the wxLua tree and created all binary and source packages, updated download page and created a news entry. Unfortunately it seems I don't have file-release permissions on SF and thus even if I already uploaded the files to upload.sf.net I cannot bind them with a wxLua release... could someone give me rights shortly (after some hours uploaded files are removed if not binded) or bind the files with a wxLua release? Thanks, Francesco |

Ok, all done. Thanks again for everything, John Labenski |

I'm still testing all packages but you're right: for some reason the upload was not successful. I've uploaded it again. Francesco |

Just for fun, I tried downloading the .package file and installing it. (following the instructions linked to from the download package...) The install went OK, it fetched the rest of autopackage OK and so on. A little scared of binary installers,this was just for experimenting. But when I ran the wxLuaEditor application from the menu, it just died. Running it again, from the shell, showed that libexpat.so.1 not found ? I only have libexpat.so.0 on my Linux machine, running Fedora Core 4. libtiff.so.4 also seemed to be missing, when checking it with "ldd"... Can this be fixed, by linking those two libraries statically or so ? --anders |

I've fixed this. I've tried to link statically also expat but in the final ELF ldd still shows expat.so.1 is needed. Probably because wxWidgets was not compiled using autopackage's gcc wrapper, apgcc, which cuts down dependencies... I'm going to create an autopackage for wxWidgets but it's going to take some days at least, 2 weeks at worst. Francesco |

(I already had wxWidgets 2.6.3rc1, which was installed from a local RPM...) --anders |
