I was just about to package and upload the pre32 snapshot to upload to Debian/unstable, but building fails because of an unused variable:

Could you let us know once a fixed snapshot is available?

Dear Michael,

a fixed snapshot is being uploaded to

ftp://ftp.cs.unipr.it/pub/ppl/snapshots/

Please, let us know how it goes. Thanks for the report,

The package builds fine, but apparently libppl-c has seen a SONAME change (0 -> 2); was that intentional? The ChangeLog doesn't contain any information about recent changes, and it doesn't seem to be documented elsewhere. Because of the resulting new binary package libppl-c2 the upload is now awaiting approval by Debian ftp-masters and it will take a few more days until it reaches the Debian archives.

Best, Michael

Hi!

[...]

the ChangeLog is updated just before the official releases and a few other times. Concerning the version info of the C interface, here is its history, as reported in the file interfaces/C/Makefile.am:

# PPL release -version-info # 0.1 ----- # 0.2 ----- # 0.3 ----- # 0.4 0:0:0 # 0.5 1:0:1 # 0.6 1:0:1 # 0.6.1 1:0:1 # 0.7 1:0:1 # 0.8 1:0:1 # 0.9 1:0:1 # 0.10 2:0:0

LIBPPL_C_LT_CURRENT = 2 LIBPPL_C_LT_REVISION = 0 LIBPPL_C_LT_AGE = 0

Ah, ok, thanks!

I thought this was only an exercise to make sure there are no packaging problems. I mean, the official release of PPL 0.10 is really imminent now so it is probably best to wait and ship the real thing. All the best,

The package inspection by ftp-masters is imminent whenever a new binary package name is introduced. But don't worry, this should only be a formal act.

As the effort of packaging and building new versions of ppl is not really huge, I do prefer uploading those snapshots as well as it may be easier to spot problems early.

Best, Michael
