Description Rex Dieter 2005-10-28 14:44:44 UTC
rpmlint suggests following files could/should be packaged in a -devel subpkg:

%files devel
%defattr(-,root,root,-)
%{_libdir}/gcl-%{version}/h/
%{_libdir}/gcl-%{version}/unixport/lib*.a

Assuming, of course, you don't think this is a hairbrained idea... (-:

BTW, any reason gcl hasn't been built on/for development/fc5 yet?

We could do this, I would prefer not to, unless we know exactly what
should go into the devel package. I consider gcl a development package
itself, so the problem isn't one :-)

Just tried again to build on fc5:
http://buildsys.fedoraproject.org/logs/fedora-development-extras/319-gcl-2.6.7-4.fc5/i386/build.log

If you come up with a patch, please go ahead!
BTW, I implemented the same personality hack as in sbcl.

In any case, we should communicate with upstream to make gcl compiler better.
I don't think it is a high priority though, as we have already clisp and sbcl.

Good point, nevermind.

Yeah, at least let them know compiling fails with gcc-4.0.2 (assuming it's a gcc
and not a glibc thing).
