Source Guru

Ever since I first got involved in iFolder - I’ve never managed to get Simias to build properly inside a chroot.

A sense of overwhelming achievement came across me today when I finally had this happen

dpkg-genchanges: including full source code in upload
dpkg-buildpackage: full upload (original source is included)
Copying back the cached apt archive contents
-> unmounting dev/pts filesystem
-> unmounting proc filesystem
Current time: Tue Feb 14 00:22:51 GMT 2006
pbuilder-time-stamp: 1139876571
-> cleaning the build env
-> removing directory /scratch/cache/pbuilder/build//21686 and its subdirectories

Ok, so everything may not be cool - I’ve just realised there are some thing in libsimias0 that should be in libsimias-dev - but hey - that’s the smallest issue I’ve ever had.

You have NO idea how … relieved this has made me feel. To finally have an actual fully built simias package. I’m really hoping that this is the final step - that I don’t come across anything else. Because, for those of you who’ve been following my struggle with iFolder over the past x months will know it hasn’t been a pretty one. Much to the fact that the Novell Code/my packaging have always been at a stage where they disagree with each other… but now they finally agree… now - onto iFolder itself… which is currently building nicely… lets just hope it’ll build in a chroot

*crosses fingers and hopes*
