IgnoreGroup and perl packages ?

Hello.
I want to test something, and I need to block every single perl update pacman or yaourt wants me to do.
How can I say to pacman I DON'T WANT to see perl packages to be updated ?
Something simpler than a line like :
IgnorePkg = perl cairo-perl glib-perl gtk2-perl perl-locale-gettext perl-text-iconv perl-xml-twig perl-xml-simple perlxml
Thanks.

But why don't you want to upgrade perl?
If there are problems with these updates, did you check all the bugs were correctly reported?
Because in [testing] it kills gnome system tools
And I want to go to [testing] because I want to live on the bleeding edge
Ok, but you skipped the most important part : where is the bug report ?

OpenSSL and Perl

I've been working on Xyne's feature requests for Pacgraph. He thought it would be cool if there were some way to quickly explore the dependencies of stuff and how packages fit together.
Here's an interesting relationship: OpenSSL and Perl. If you chase OpenSSL's deps all the way down to glibc, you'll find it needs 135Mb. The single biggest dep is Perl, at 38Mb. I would hope Perl is important to its function.
Searching the net found a Gentoo bug report about this. It was closed as CantFix because "the stupid build system uses perl". As a binary distro, it sounds like Perl should be a makedep. (Assuming the build system is unchanged. The bug report was from 5 years ago.)
Searching "pacman -Ql openssl" reveals exactly one Perl script: /etc/ssl/misc/CA.pl and it's associated manpage. Also present is a shell script (/etc/ssl/misc/CA.sh) which does the same thing (but does not have a manpage).
Is there any reason to have a Perl dependency for just this one duplicated script? Am I missing something? I know tweaks to OpenSSL should not be taken lightly, we would not want to end up like Debian.

They removed a portion of the PRNG to make it debugger friendly. This broke the keygen for Debian/Ubuntu/friends. Here is a more detailed summary of the Debian mess: http://www.links.org/?p=328
From CA.pl's manpage:
The CA.pl script is a perl script that supplies the relevant command line arguments to the openssl command for some common certificate operations. It is intended to simplify the process of certificate creation and management by the use of some simple options.
Personally, I've never used it for creating certs. I've never seen it referenced in any SSL tutorial or guide. Beyond the man page, it is mentioned once on OpenSSL's site.
http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.ht … pass=guest
The dev's say the Perl script is only there for systems lacking Bash, mainly just Windows. Do we need this dependency just for Window's sake?

Perl packaging guidelines: request for a new official policy

feature request about this here: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/18113
*edit*
Ok, the new version of pacpan is out: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/info/pacpan
It's only in my repo for now. I'll move this version to the AUR after some feedback.
After some initial debugging (if necessary), I would like to request that the official Perl packaging guidelines be changed to recommend using pacpan as a tool to aid packaging CPAN packages. In many cases it will provide a fully working PKGBUILD by default and in those cases when it doesn't, the provided PKGBUILD will be a very good starting point. It can also be used for comparison to existing PKGBUILDs.
Packagers will find the following functions useful (please see the info page for some output examples):
pacpan --get-pkgbuilds [pkgs]
This will print out default PKGBUILDs for the specified packages. Packages may be specified with the standard pacman package names (e.g. perl-foo-bar) or with the CPAN names (e.g. Foo-Bar for a distribution, Foo::Bar for a module). Pacpan will map modules to their distributions uniquely and thus prevent package conflicts when attempting to package different modules which are in the same distrbution.
It will also provide a comprehensive provides array which will ensure dependency resolution when dealing with dependencies specified in META.yml on CPAN.
Pacpan is also able to detect depends, makedepends and optdepends for CPAN packages.
Of course this depends on the presence and correctness of the META.yml file on CPAN, but this is present for (nearly?) all active distributions.
pacpan --check-local
This will inspect local perl packages and determine if local CPAN packages are named according to the packaging guidelines. It will also determine which modules a package provided by directly matching the files owned by the package according to pacman against the modules provided by those files, including version numbers where available. This will show packagers mistakes in the package and suggest changes to correct them. There is also a function for regular users to update the provides array of perl packages in the local database to ensure dependency resolution while waiting for packagers to correct their PKGBUILDs.
Last edited by Xyne (2010-02-01 22:35:47)

The reason to include modules in the provides array is to enable finer tuning of dependencies. If the modules within a distribution ever change, there would be no need to change the depends array of all packages which had specified that distribution instead of the modules that they actually depend on. It also makes searching easier as someone who is looking for the functionality of a particular module will be able to find it via a pacman search.
If that is really an issue, then it would be trivial to remove the provides from the PKGBUILDs that the code generates. If we could strictly enforce the packaging guidelines in the official repos and the AUR then I suppose it might make sense to ignore modules completely, but I don't see how it hurts to list them in the provides array.
With the current code that I have, I think I have full module-to-distribution resolution and all PKGBUILDs generated by the code for a requested package or module map to the corresponding distribution. The pacpan rewrite is complete and I'm working on plugging the backend into bauerbill right now to handle dependency resolution, installation and makedeps removal. I hope to release the code soon (maybe today, depending on how productive I am), at which point we can really get this discussion going with a feature request on the bug tracker.

WLS6.0 problem finding perl package

I am running WLS6.0 and configured the CGIServlet to run some Perl
          scripts. I have some of my code in a package (common.pm) and that
          package file is in the same directory as my perl scripts. I can't
          seem to get any of the scripts to work that use my package. Even just
          having the "use common;" statement seems to
          cause problems.
          I can get my scripts to work by commenting out the 'use' statement and
          any calls to my package.
          Any ideas what I may be missing. These scripts and package have
          worked on AIX under Apache.
          Thanks in advance,
          Mike


i'm a student, I have to make a project using java2sdk1.4.0 as compiler and runtime environement and textpad as texteditor, my problem is the following: our teacher wrote a package called fsa.games, when i give the classpath to the package in the textpad setting for the javac compiler, when i try to compile my sourcefiles which are supposed to import the classes from fsa.games package the compiler tells me the package doesn't exist.
I'm pretty sure the classpath is right, but i can't figure out what's wrong?
If you have any idea i would love to hear them cause i'm going crazy on this.
Thanks in advance
Dear,
Let us approach this with an example....
You have an java file as given below
package fsa.games;
public class FootBall
and consider you have stored this java file in the directory as given below
c:/javatest/FootBall.java
now change the directory to c:/javatest
compile FootBall.java
javac -d . FootBall.java
This will create a directory structure as given below
c:/javatest/fsa/games/FootBall.class
Now, set the classpath
set CLASSPATH=c:/javatest;%CLASSPATH%
Execute the java file
java fsa.games.FootBall
Hope u can understand the procedure..
Kind regards,

Seeking pointers for coding with Mac::Sound or other Perl packages

Greetings and best wishes.
I am working on an experimental/recreational VoIP app using Net::SIP. All of the SIP stuff is easy and I am sending/receiving calls to/from my VoIP provider, no problem. I am to the point where I want to hook in live input from the system mic and/or play output directly to the speaker. I am i need of some pointers to get started. Currently I am using VLC to speaker the output and have no Mic input.
I have Mac::Sound (and the full Mac::Carbon) loaded, but I seem to be having trouble tracking down simple doc and examples. I can play an example sound file (Scream.rsrc) using SndPlay(0, $snd, 0), but I don't know the format of the resource file. And really, I don't want to play files, I want to stream my output (ULAW or decoded ULAW) to the speaker, and send the live Mic input to the call. Can anyone help me with some pointers to get started?
Ultimately, I will want to use a USB headset rather than the onboard mic and speaker.
Thanks.

Thanks for the advice about the obsolete status of Carbon (and perl Mac::Carbon). However I don't see any perl packages to interface to Core Audio. As I am experimenting, and as Carbon seems to work great on my 10.4.11 iMac, here is what I have done. To play an 8000 khz Ulaw clip held in some scalar, the following simple fragment will suffice:
use Mac::Memory;
use Mac::Sound;
my $ULAWCOMPHDRSIZE = 84;
my $RATE8KHZ = 8000;
my $MONO = 1;
my $BITS8PERSAMPLE = 8;
my $snd = <some ulaw encoded sound data>;
$hand = NewHandle($ULAWCOMPHDRSIZE);#setup won't grow handle size so don't $h = new Handle
Mac::Sound::SetupSndHeader($hand, $MONO, $RATE8KHZ, $BITS8PERSAMPLE,
kULawCompression, kMiddleC, length($snd));
$hand->append($snd); # the Handle methods all take care of size and resize for you
SndPlay($chan, $hand, 0); # sync play
You can async the play ( SndPlay($chan, $hand, 1) ) just fine, but unfortunately, the callback functionality is not supported. But as I am streaming well timed RTP buffers, I can handle the async complications in other ways.
I haven't started on recording from the MIC yet, but I expect it can be accomplished similarly.
Thanks.

Error while transporting PCs and Info packages frm dev to qa

Hello Guyz
First of all, I am new to this forum. Heard a lot about it, and I hope I can learn a lot by the exchange of information in this forum. I ve already gone through so many threads, and have gained a lot of insight in BW.
I have an issue, where I am transporting process chains and info packages from dev to qa. But the transports have thrown errors, saying that the 'Source System XXXCLNTXXX does not exist and info package has been deleted'.
My question: How can I transport these objects in such a way that the loads which were going from ECCDEV to BWDEV, now go from ECCQA to BWQA? Are there any settings in SE09 or SE10 or somewhere in BW where I can do this?
Thanks in advance.
Atul.

Hi Atul........
There is no such settings........check this.......
How to transport BW object
Anyways.....I think there is some problem in the Client name.......Just check the Source system name in RSA1...........if it has been changed somehow........then run transaction BDLS and change the source system assignment........

Sed and perl not replacing a letter in a file

I have a file 1.htm. I want to replace a letter ṣ (s with dot below). I tried with both sed and perl and it does not replace.
sed -i 's/ṣ/s/g' "1.htm"
perl -i -pe 's/ṣ/s/g' "1.htm"
can anyone suggest what to do
1.html

Perl also has that operator, but it usually goes by its alias tr (for transliteration). y is provided if you want to use that instead, but I don't think it will help; keep reading to find out why.
\x{0323} is a special Perl-specific syntax for Unicode character U+0323 (COMBINING DOT BELOW). Since 323 is its Unicode code point, not a byte value, that won't tell you what encoding you're using. (In UTF-8, that character becomes the 2-byte sequence cca3, which is what you'll see if you examine the file with a dumb viewer like xxd.) Fortunately, since it comes through correctly, you know Perl is properly set up and isn't trying to use some weird encoding to read your file, or interpreting it as just bytes. This makes your job in principle much easier.
However, you'll notice that Perl doesn't recognize ṣ as a single character. That's because the way your file is encoded, it isn't one character: it's an s followed by the Unicode character U+0323. This is a valid way to represent the glyph ṣ using Unicode, but it doesn't treat that glyph as a single character (in, for instance, tr/foo/bar/). Since tr can only do one-to-one character transliteration, you can't use it to transform ṣ (2 characters) into s (one character) while doing other similar transformations in one pass.
One thing you might do is to simply strip out all the U+0323 characters:
s/\x{0323}//g
# or as I would write it,
s/\N{COMBINING DOT BELOW}//g
which would leave you with just the ASCII remaining for those glyphs that use it. This works for ṛ, ṣ, and ṇ (for instance), but it will not work on ā, and you can't use a similar tactic there because ā in your file is not made by combining the ASCII 'a' with U+0305 COMBINING OVERLINE, but is in fact a single Unicode character, U+0101 (LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH MACRON).
To make a long story even longer, there is a Unicode character for ṣ (U+1E63 LATIN SMALL LETTER S WITH DOT BELOW), which does not appear in your 1.htm file, but is the character you will get if you copy and paste from this forum (at least, it works that way for me). So if you typed or pasted "s/ṣ/s/g" into your perl or sed command, whether or not it would have the desired effect depends on which form of the ṣ glyph your input method gives you.
If this is a one-off, quick script, I'd write something like the following: (incomplete!)
#!/usr/bin/perl -p -i.bak
tr/ā/a/; # here add all multibyte characters that you want to transliterate
s/
\N{COMBINING DOT BELOW} | # this should take care of ḌḍḤḥḶḷṆṇṚṛṢṣṬṭ
\N{COMBINING CANDRABINDU} # this should take care of l̐
# add other combining characters that you want to get rid of here
//gx;
I added ā to the tr/// as an example; if you don't actually want to replace ā in the file, you'll want to remove that part. Without seeing the other files or knowing how they were created (different encoders produce the same glyphs in different ways), I couldn't say with certainty which of the glyphs you want to replace are represented by a single Unicode code point and which ones are represented by a letter + a combining diacritic or other mark, so you'll have to examine your files (or the encoder that generated them) to see which ones you have to deal with in which way.
You can use this tool to look up a UTF-8 byte sequence like "cc a3" to get its Unicode code point and name. Again, you'll have to examine the file with something like xxd to see the bare bytes, since any editor will probably present them as characters.
You may also wish to investigate the Text::Unidecode module on CPAN; I can't say for sure whether it will do what you want, but maybe it's close enough.

Process Orchestration - Configuration Wizard "Process Integration and Orchestration Package" shows running

Hi SAP Gurus,
I have installed an SAP PO system and am running the Config Wizard from NWA. The functional unit I have selected from NWA is - "Process Integration and Orchestration Package". This functional unit has in turn selected few more functional units like AEX, SLD. The issue that I am facing is that the wizard does not appear for my inputs and it shows that the selected wizards are running. Please see attachment "config_wizard_running.jpeg"
I read some forums and found a thread where in it was mentioned how to stop the config wizard and restart it. http://scn.sap.com/thread/1422958
Even after restarting my server, the functional units are still showing as running in NWA --> Configuration --> Scenarios --> Configuration Wizard --> Functional Unit Configuration UI. Please see attachment "Config_wizard_stuck.jpeg"
I restarted the application as suggested in the post so that I could run Config Wizard again. But its now allowing me to start it as the status is Running.
Please suggest.
Regards,
Amit

Hi Dimitri,
Thanks a lot. I have resetted the functional units. This time the wizard comes up ok.
Regards,
Amit

PackageMaker 3.0.3: diff between metapackage and distribution package?

Hello,
I'm trying to build an installer that does the following:
1) install an application in /Applications
2) modify the installed application (adding custom plugins)
3) install extra files somewhere else
I've built 3 packages for these items each with their own preflight and postflight scripts (when relevant). Each can be selected by the user to be installed or not. (3) can be installed in a different place than preset.
I've found info in the PackageMaker User Guide that there are metapackages and distribution packages and they differ in the order of the scripts being executed and the possibility of installing some or all packages in custom locations.
But I can't find how to configure a package to be either a metapackage or a distribution package in the PackageMaker interface.
Any clues?
Thanks.

I wouldn't recommend that. You should really play by PackageMaker's rules. Of course, those rules aren't written down anywhere
What you can do is set your destination to be just / - nothing else. Then, the files that you install need to have their own, correct, hierarchy. You start with a temp folder. In that temp folder and create the following hierarchcy (for example): /tmp/packagemaker/Library/QuickTime/Perian. Then, you build your package using /tmp/packagemaker. I have scripts that build my temp directories just so before I ever start PackageMaker. Next, apply the appropriate (usually root) permissions to your temp files. (This way, you can keep non-root files in your own SCM repository). Finally, build the package using those temp files. Depending on how you structure your hierarchy, you may need to check/uncheck "Include root in package".
I've made it sound easier than it is. There is some trial an error involved.
Let me know if this doesn't make sense. I know it is confusing.

Product ID for Enterprise Query, Reporting, and Analysis package

Hi Experts,
I try to install Enterprise Query, Reporting, and Analysis package(CD number : 51033475)
Installation setup asks the Product ID,
How can i find the correct Product ID for this installation,
Regards

For Partners and SAP, the license id is contained in a word document that is in the Download Manager.
We are also trying to install this package, but it seems only the SAP drivers and not the BO Enterprise is contained in the Service Marketplace file.
Just wondering if you have experienced the same thing.
