The reason for the FTBFS is a series of commits from Alex adding some
methods for retrieving more detailled information on the current X2Go
Client build during runtime. Basically, that is a nice-to-have feature
esp. during development cycles.
The not so good aspect is, that currently all automatic (and the
win32) builds fail (for Linux builds see http://jenkins.x2go.org).
@Alex:
The problem is the git executable. Basically, we have to assume that
(a) the .git folder is not present (e.g. in the tarball releases) and
(b) the git command is not available in the build environment.
So my suggestion would be:
o create the txt/git script before the build (I can add that to
our buildscripts on code.x2go.org)
o copy the changelog file via debian/rules (for the .deb package)
and via x2goclient.spec (for the .rpm packages)
o only make the --git cmdline switch available if ./txt/git exists
o (and maybe rather rename --git to --git-info)
o only make the --changelog cmdline switch available if
./txt/changelog exists
So basically, please split the work up into
X2Go Client code: (todo Alex)
o offer --git(-info) and/or --changelog if the corresponding
./txt/* files exists during runtime
debian/rules | x2goclient.spec (todo Mike#1):
o create ./txt/changelog
x2go-build-deb-package | x2go-build-rpm-package (todo Mike#1):
o create the git information in ./txt/git-info
winbuider.bat (todo Mike#2)
o create the git information in ./txt/git-info
Package maintainers of distros should (be able to) omit the creation
of ./txt/changelog | ./txt/git-info. The upstream version and the
package release should bear all info that is needed.
Thanks+Greets,
Mike
