Re: Help needed to try to fix activiz.net



Thank you !

I'm faced a new problem : activiz is now working with libvtk6 [1], and fw4spl with libvtk5. But, these packages are NOT compatible.
So in the case where I fix activiz (by using libvtk6), fw4spl will not build with libvtk5 anymore, and this is currently not possible...

Hi Corentin,

please be so kind and do not CC me (as per lists.debian.org policy). :-)

I'm not sure what you mean - you need to create a recent upstream
tarball and import it via `gbp import-orig --pristine-tar`.  The
get-orig-source script should create a proper tarball (since upstream
does not deliver any downloadable tarball).  It might be a good idea
to ask upstream about this.

Please look into the debian/get-orig-source script to understand what
I mean by VERSION. :-)

You need to update these patches.  If you are lucky

   quilt push

just detects "fuzz" and is able to apply the patch.  This can be fixed
using `quilt refresh`.  In the less lucky case you need to do manual
intervention.  There might be more clever approaches than I'm following.
I usually keep a backup of the patch file and than manually strip the
chunks that do not apply and use `quilt edit ...` to reapply the changes
that did not apply.

This sounds like a

   quilt push
   quilt refresh

(==lucky) case.

Hope this helps
