Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0], we noticed
that gnucap-python could not be built reproducibly.

This is because it uses:

  $ echo "\n"

… or similar which is not the same across dash/bash etc, resulting in
a diff of:

│ │ │ │ ├── NEWS
│ │ │ │ │ @@ -1,3 +1 @@
│ │ │ │ │ -0.0.0
│ │ │ │ │ -=====
│ │ │ │ │ -* initial release
│ │ │ │ │ +0.0.0\n=====\n* initial release

A patch is attached, although given that this NEWS entry is pretty
meaningless, it is unclear whether the best course of action would
be to simply remove its creation…

Dear maintainer,

I've prepared an NMU for gnucap-python (versioned as 0.0.2-1.1) and
uploaded it to DELAYED/2. Please feel free to tell me if I
should delay it longer.

Regards.

Dear Mattia.

thanks for your commitment. I have prepared 0.0.2-2 in the
pkg-electronics team repo, looking for a sponsor. we are now discussing
issues with toolchains [2], ETA unknown. Please proceed as you wish.

I see that the discussion there has moved on to something about C++
symbols I'm not so concerned about myself.

If it's only about sponsoring I'm happy to help, but I don't really want
to play with symbols at this time…

> Please proceed as you wish.

With this and onther package being the only last blockers for the
removal of python3.6 I'm somewhat pressured to continue, unless you can
give me a shorter ETA.  Also, I'm happy to rework my work.

On that note, looking at the git repository I see that:
  * you didn't do anything to d/rules, that still mention 3.6 and 3.7
  * you are build-depending on python3-dev, instead of python3-all-dev,
    is that wanted?  As I went for the letter in my NMU.

Please have a look at my diff and see if that's good in your opinion.

Also, while working on gnucap-python, I had the feeling that those
out2.7 and out3.6 directories were pre-built stuff that shouldn't be in
the source distribution.  If that's really the case, I suggest you ask
upstream to get rid of them for the next version.

my preferred solution will be to accept the dpkg-shlibdeps warnings, as
described in the manual. it will be more tricky to silence them.

I essetially agree with your changes. the ETA is subject to
review & sponsoring.

I used a symlink to make tests work across python versions. currently
the tests are not active, due to numerical noise. I had planned to clean
up d/rules after reworking the tests upstream, when re-enabling the
tests.

looks reasonable. i simply did not know about it.

out* contains the expected output for testing, which varies across
python versions. it actually shouldn't, and it does not between 3.7 and
3.6. perhaps out2 and out3 will be sufficient. work in progress,
possibly ready in 0.0.3.

I also usually just ignore those myself…

Then if you don't mind I'd still keep my NMU as it is and let it enter
unstable.  The only thing is that you'd find yourself to integrate it
into your own tree.

python3-all-dev depends on all the supported python3 versions, which
means that until 2 months ago it would have pulled in both 3.6 and 3.7.
Instead, python3-dev only pulls in the default version.

Oh, then my change that is removing them is not right.  mhh well, since
the tests are disabled anyway I'll leave it there, but indeed it
requires some changes.  Sorry I didn't understand what that thing was.

ACK, so I rescheduled the NMU to go in now.

Thank you!


/me looks forward for his other NMU for libkolabxml to also go in…
