Bug#659069: getting retroshare in Debian

[Antoine Beaupré]

[cc on bug #659069 in debian which follows up on the packaging effort]

Hi!

Retroshare doesn't seem to be in Debian, and maybe this is something we
can fix! I notice you maintain a PPA for the software, that's a great
start.

I am trying to figure out how to build this thing from scratch. The
source tarballs in the PPA do not seem to correspond to the .tar.gz
distributed on sourceforge... Which one is the real "upstream tarball"?

Also, I have tried to compile the source tarball from the PPA in Debian
Wheezy, and I get the following error:

I assume this is because of an incompatible libupnp version?

I am utterly confused by the libupnp version numbers, actually. Debian
has both "libupnp-dev" and "libupnp4-dev", but libupnp-dev actually
provides the libupnp6 binary package, with version number 1.6, while
libupnp4 is 1.8. Yaaay... any idea what retroshare actually requires here?

For more details on this weird situation, see:

http://packages.debian.org/libupnp

So basically, I cannot compile retroshare in Debian wheezy or unstable:
the libupnp versions are incompatible. I have also tried with the
upstream tarball, no luck.

Any suggestions?

Another DD suggested the following patch to workaround the problem:

It allows the package to compile libupnp, but i got stuck later. I
eventually gave up on this.

Hi,

The problem on debian is that they're using a verison of libupnp that has version number v1.6.17 but has been patched to comply to function prototypes
of version 1.8 (I hope I'm ok with version numbers). So using an ifdef on the version number does not work on debian, that's why we added the "ifdef
DEBIAN". But defining this on ubuntu breaks the compilation, so we cannot include this patch in the released packages.

I've got no solution for now to sort this out cleanly.

We could include this patch on the Debian package, just not the Ubuntu
package... That would be part of the Debian package work here...

ah. You don't need to compile this. It's just the VOIP plugin.

If you want to, you need to install the qt mobility library. On ubuntu it's qtmobility-dev

For the patch, yes of course you can include it in the DEBIAN package.

Thanks!

How do I disable its compilation?

I have this package installed yet it still fails to compile.. Something
wrong with the search path I guess?

Alright, will do.

To disable it, remove the entry plugins in the .pro file of the src/ directory.

I'm surprised you can't find the correct package name. I know that on the different ubuntu systems it's a different name as well. The plugin compiles on debian SID if I remember correcly.

What debian version are you using? I can ask users around in my own network. Many of them are using debian.

Alright.

The package is there, but somehow the compile process doesn't file the header.

This is Debian Testing / Wheezy.

BTW, for packaging on ubuntu I use the scripts in trunk/build_scripts/Ubuntu_src/. They get the svn and make debian source packages from it, patching
.pro files to match the structure of the deb src packages. Start with "./makeSourcePackage.sh". The rest of it are various scripts called by this one.

There's also scripts in build_scripts/Debian that seem to be pretty much up to date although they make binary packages only.

Hope it's useful.

Just to mention that we just fixed the issues with libUPnP. We added a test in libretroshare.pro so that we cna use the correct
#define that makes UpNPBase.cc compile on all system.

It should work on DEBIAN as well.

Best regards
