Hm, I couldn't compile a library for Linux:

~~Quote~~
peter@Solarstriker:~/installation/newlisp-8.8.0$ make -f makefile_linux_lib

gcc -Wall -pedantic -Wno-uninitialized -c -O2 -DLINUX -DLIBRARY newlisp.c

newlisp.c: In function `p_reset':

newlisp.c:4986: error: `MainArgs' undeclared (first use in this function)

newlisp.c:4986: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once

newlisp.c:4986: error: for each function it appears in.)

make: *** [newlisp.o] Fout 1

:-(

Oops, change p_reset() in newlisp.c to following code:

Code Select Expand

CELL * p_reset(CELL * params)
{
#ifndef LIBRARY
#ifndef WINCC
if (evaluateExpression(params)->type != CELL_NIL)
        execv(MainArgs[0], MainArgs);
#endif
#endif

longjmp(errorJump, ERR_USER_RESET);
return(nilCell);
}

Hi Lutz,

I see rpm: is out of makefile. I remember we discussed moving it out of makefile and using a script - do you have a script done or should I do one for rpm building? I will build mandriva rpms on Mandriva 2006 Free.

I suggest you use your script. I took mine out of the Makefile, because it was not working anymore. I only left the rpm spec files in newlisp-x.x.x/util as a guideline what should be rpm'd. I hope these file are still up to date.

I also try to get to a 4 months release cycle this year and 6 months the year after. This will make it easier on all who are supplying and maintaining packages.
