[MiNT] SpareMiNT MiNTLib / MiNTBin Conflicts and Outdated PML / Fdlibm

[Keith Scroggins <kws@radix.net>]

Hi List,

So, I have been working on building 0.59.1 RPMs for SpareMiNT.  I actually 
have an RPM set built....

So far, have run into 2 issues.

The first is that both the mintbin package, and the newer mintlib have 
ar.h.  My resolution is just rebuild and remove from mintbin, and then fix 
the spec for mintlib to want the newer revision.

The other issue is that math.h is now removed.  Both PML and Fdlibm, as 
packaged in SpareMiNT, do not contain their own math.h.  My solution for 
this is to just rebuild the packages, PML with Vicent's patches adding 
Coldfire support, and take a look at the Fdlibm in CVS.  Alan, have 
you done more Fdlibm work?  I saw that at least a math.h is present in 
CVS.

This is an issue because on install of mintlib-devel, rpm will delete the 
math.h file as it was the previous package owner of it, and it is now not 
present.

Otherwise, the only changes made to MiNTLib (and I'll submit a patch) is 
enabling Coldfire libraries, upping the version, and rpm changelog.  I'm 
thinking about fixing the spec to require the newer mintbin as well, but 
not sure yet.

Any thoughts?

Keith
