Hehe, it's just a package generated with equivs, it's got no source :-) All it does is depend on the required packages: Package: freeride-base1.6 Status: install ok installed Priority: optional Section: misc Installed-Size: 36 Maintainer: Mauricio FernáÏdez <batsman.geo / yahoo.com> Version: 1.0 Provides: freeride-base Depends: ruby, libripper-ruby (>= 0.0.5-1), libfox-ruby (>= 1.0.16-1) > I have a testing distrib and freeride can't be installed with a 'apt-get > install' because of a dependance pb with libfox. If i install the new > version of libfox (ie 1.0.29 instead of 1.0.18) I break to much dependances. That's kind of a problem, because FreeRIDE needs (quoting from http://www.rubyide.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?UserDoc) [FOX], a cross-platform C/C++ GUI Toolkit that is now gaining a wide acceptance in the Ruby community (version 1.0.x with x > 26) [FXRuby], the ruby interface to the FOX library (version 1.0.16 or above, but do not use 1.0.17) [FXScintilla], a FOX port of the [Scintilla] widget editor (version 1.49.0 or above) That's why I packaged libfox1.0 1.0.36-1 . > It's why i'm trying to build the package (I regulary do this in order to > install a package of the 'unstable' distrib when it can't be done because of > pb of dependances, after a build of the package it's ok) I am working on the packages and will soon upload them to ftp.rubyide.org . I have tested that it is possible to rebuild all the packages with simply apt-build install freeride Note however that in your case you'd have to hack the freeride package to alter the "Depends" line, as it isn't automatically generated. I don't think you'd be able to run FreeRIDE, however (for the reason given above). Could you tell me what dependencies would be broken by switching to a new libfox1.0? Could you perhaps upgrade to my libfox1.0 package, install -dev too and then rebuild them? -- _ _ | |__ __ _| |_ ___ _ __ ___ __ _ _ __ | '_ \ / _` | __/ __| '_ ` _ \ / _` | '_ \ | |_) | (_| | |_\__ \ | | | | | (_| | | | | |_.__/ \__,_|\__|___/_| |_| |_|\__,_|_| |_| Running Debian GNU/Linux Sid (unstable) batsman dot geo at yahoo dot com <igor> Hah! we have 2 Johnie Ingrams in the channel :) <igor> Hey all btw :)
