SiFuh: did you seriously expect CRUX to make the list?
<braewoods>
it doesn't have enough market share.
<braewoods>
in general these lists seem dominated by market share popularity more than anything

Morning all.

I just hit the missing freetype.la issue. I'm ok with how to sort out the mess, but was wondering whether CRUX had considered a policy of just dropping .la files in /usr/lib all together to avoid this issue in future. It's what Slackware did.
<ppetrov^>
hi GazL I still have not upgraded freetype, what is the issue?
<GazL>
It nolonger ships libfreetype.la, so any other .la files that reference it cause a build failure.
<GazL>
imagemagic is the one that brought it to light.
<GazL>
basically you have to rebuild a bunch or things to get rid of the references in their .la files.
<ppetrov^>
does revdep catch these?
<GazL>
nope. revdep runs clean
<ppetrov^>
ai ai
<GazL>
I think revdep only checks for missing sonames, where as this is more of a build time thing.
<ppetrov^>
has there been a discussion (here?) about this? I have not been following much lately

GazL, maybe I can just rebuild everything that lists freetype as a dependency?
<SiFuh>
GazL: To answer your question last week Morefine S500 is that box
<GazL>
phew, that's everything rebuilt and all the freetype.la references gone here.
<GazL>
I'm still tempted to just have a mass purge on .la files, like Slackware did.

sounds like something for 3.7 maybe? fucking up la-files mid-release is a pain

frinnst: agree, 3.7 would be an ideal time to do it.

Is crux 3.7 coming soon?
<stenur>
I run with gcc 11.2.0 and glibc 2.34 for many weeks. OpenSSL 3 i only use partial yet ('planning to try recompile aka install all dependend in a VM for weeks). Perl 5.34 i have not installed, i would not expect any problems, i run it on the server.
<stenur>
Other than that nothing will change i _think_
