D.gnu - gdc packages in openSUSE Build Service

reply FunkyM <opensuse sukimashita.com> writes:
I started to create gdc packages for openSUSE and used the openSUSE build
service (https://build.opensuse.org) to make it easier to provide an updated
gdc and aim for distro inclusion.

Along being able to automatically generate packages across known architectures
the service also supports various distro targets like SLED, xUbuntu, Debian,
Fedora, Mandriva and openSUSE itself (Ubuntu, Redhat will follow).

I'd like to call for volunteers to help in perfecting the .spec and create
patches as I got some issues with it.

The stuff I am struggling with in order of priority:

- The generated compiler requires -libunwind or the build fails. I could not
figure out how to overcome this. The gdcgnu packaged gdc does not require it
for instance.
- x86_64 build fails (I think this just needs some x86 specific config/env
params set)
- Provide a runtime libgphobos.so
- Provide gcc-d-phobos(-devel) and gcc-d-tango(-devel)

You can find the package in the home:FunkyM project named 'gcc-d' within the
build service.

https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?project=home%3AFunkyM&package=gcc-d

Hope some people can help me on the way to spread D to the masses a bit more. ;)

FYI, Debian/Ubuntu already have mantained GDC packages in their
repositories.

Would be very interested to co-operate with you on Tango packages btw.
Please contact me on IRC if you can?

There is also a RPM binary packaging at http://gdcgnu.sourceforge.net

Currently has GDC and GDB, see http://gdcgnu.sourceforge.net/repoview/
(only tested with Fedora and CentOS, and not with Mandriva or Novell)

No Tango packages, but it can be installed afterwards just like usual.

Did you use --disable-shared when configuring GDC ?

Yep. I think it's an issue of the build env. in openSUSE, pulling something in
I don't need.
