[SOLVED] makepkg creates install path relative to current directory

I'm packaging a pcsc driver, simply so that I can have pacman manage it. I've tried various things, but I simply cannot get makepkg to generate a package which will install to /usr/ instead of my home directory. build() and package() both work just fine; but I end up with a .pkg.tar.gz that installs to my home directory. Below are both my PKGBUILD files and the output of pacman -Qlp [my].pkg.tar.gz

I think you understand makepkg just fine. It's make that's causing you trouble. You were telling acsccid to install into
/home/xxx/projects/acr38t_driver_pkg/pkg/home/xxx/projects/acr38t_driver_pkg/pkg/acsccid/lib/pcsc/drivers/
which makepkg happily packaged for you.

[solved] makepkg.conf + local path

Hi!
I would like to create two packages that are needed to run my printer (canon).
From the canon website, after long passages, I downloaded two .tar.gz packages with the necessary sources.
From wiki, I refer to the page that explains how to create the PKGBUILD, I realized that you can
also specify a local directory as url to find the source package.
To do this, however, you must edit the file makepkg.conf.
The question is: how do I change the file makepkg.conf?
Thank you!
Last edited by trevi (2011-12-29 15:19:55)

Just put the tarball names in the source= array, put the tarballs and PKGBUILD in the same dir, and run makepkg in that dir. No need to edit makepkg.conf.

Java not checking current directory

I'm trying to run one of my classes in command line. First time I've done this, usually use JBuilder, but I need to send command line arguments for this assignment, which is easier to do in command line.
I'm using Windows XP. My class is called Fexpand. I go to the directory that the class is in. I check this with dir, and Fexpand.class is clearly present. I type "java Fexpand" and hit enter. I get "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Fexpand" If I put the full path to the current directory in manually with -classpath it will run just fine. But everything I've checked says this shouldn't be necessary and it should be checking the current directory automatically.
Now javac works just fine. Just for kicks I thought I'd see if compiling with javac would make any difference. Went to my source directory (because JBuilder keeps compiled classes separate from source), typed "javac Fexpand.java" and it worked just fine. And since there was now an Fexpand.class in this directory, too, I thought I'd try running it. "java Fexpand" Still get the same error.
My CLASSPATH variable contains the following (including quotes, I didn't add those for clarity, they're in the value for CLASSPATH): "C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2_04\lib\ext\QTJava.zip"
I have no idea whether or not this is right, but it's the only culprit I can think of.
Thanks for any help.

But everything I've checked says this shouldn't be necessary and it should be checking the current directory automatically.Not if you hava overridden the default checking by explicitly specifying a classpath. Read the documentation Setting the Classpath and How Classes are Found here:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/tooldocs/tools.html

Cannot install Webpack on Ubuntu: 'Could not create destination path /opt/Xilinx/13.4/ISE_DS'

Hi there,
I managed to untar the compressed file and get xsetup running. It all works fine till the last bit where I click 'Install' which results an error:
Could not create destination path /opt/Xilinx/13.4/ISE_DS
Any ideas why? Thank you for your help in advance!

Hi
Check you have write permissions to the path /opt/Xilinx/13.4/ISE_DS?
If not, change the installation location to other path where you have write permissions.
Thanks,

[SOLVED] Makepkg, install dependencies from AUR.

Is it possible for makepkg to install the dependencies from AUR with makepkg -si?
Last edited by lemanski6 (2012-09-20 18:05:38)

Nope. Many "AUR helpers" do this though. In my limited experience yaourt seems to be one that handles this seemlessly, but I'd say it comes with some costs of hiding what is doing from the user.

[SOLVED] makepkg builds differently than local build

SOLUTION: my makefile with `CFLAGS += ...` did not pick up the local CFLAGS environment variable, with the command in my second post, my local build has the same issue as the makepkg build.
I have a project of mine alopex which I'm polishing up a new version for. I've been running a locally built version for a while, but when I installed it with makepkg I'm getting all sorts of memory errors and crashes when I run it.
The first obvious difference between my local build and makepkg was that makepkg strips the binary - so I stripped the local binary, but no change: the local build in ~/code/alopex/ worked fine, but the makepkg/pacman installed version in /usr/bin/ did not.
The next step was to source /etc/makepkg.conf for the local build to use all the same CFLAGS and LDFLAGS as a makepkg build. But this also lead to no change in the results.
Here are the two files, both from the exact same git source, both built with makepkg.conf build flags, and both stripped.
$ ls -l /usr/bin/alopex
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 48280 Feb 13 14:21 /usr/bin/alopex
$ file /usr/bin/alopex
/usr/bin/alopex: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, BuildID[sha1]=03e8e16e7208d6c97bce6bd545f45d20c7a7606a, stripped
$ ls -l ~/code/alopex/alopex
-rwxr-xr-x 1 jmcclure users 54760 Feb 13 14:30 /home/jmcclure/code/alopex/alopex
$ file ~/code/alopex/alopex
/home/jmcclure/code/alopex/alopex: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, BuildID[sha1]=0659354ed5a904fe93894f14d6bd413ea278396e, stripped
I can't figure out why the binaries are difference sizes and have different checksums. I suspect there is an error in my code that is only exposed when built with makepkg - but this is hard to track down without knowing what makepkg is doing differently than my local build. To be sure relative paths couldn't be relevant, I also moved the locally built binary to /usr/bin/ (overwriting the makepkg/pacman one) and it executed just fine.
So - my main question is, in addition to stripping a binary and using the makepkg.conf flags, what else is different about the makepkg build and my local build? I'm guessing it might have to do with makepkg using a clean chroot build environment (right?), but namcap doesn't detect any missing dependencies or any other issues.
Below are many details that may or may not be relevant
EDIT: in case it's relevant, here is the `env` output for the local build with only the PS1/PS2 and LS_COLORS removed as they are long and I can't imagine relevant.

As a temporary work-around, I found that the following produces a working binary and somehow avoids the step that is leading to the crashes
makepkg
cd src/alopex
make clean
make
cd ../..
makepkg -efi
I've been tinkering with readelf to see what differences I can pinpoint. I really don't know what I'm doing, but it seemed the symbols (-s) and dynamic links (-d) were all the same between the two version except for the addressess/offsets/hex-number-column. So I tried checking the readelf -h output and I get a couple differences there - in this output, the /usr/bin/alopex version is the working one:
diff <(readelf -h /tmp/alopex/pkg/alopex-git/usr/bin/alopex) <(readelf -h /usr/bin/alopex)
11c11
< Entry point address: 0x4030d8
> Entry point address: 0x403020
13c13
< Start of section headers: 46488 (bytes into file)
> Start of section headers: 52968 (bytes into file)
17c17
< Number of program headers: 9
> Number of program headers: 8
I'm not sure what these differences mean, but they are consistent with every working and non-working build.
Readelf -l output indicates that the extra program header in the nonworking version includes the following:
08 .init_array .fini_array .jcr .dynamic .got
Each of these symbols exist in the working binary as well, but they are duplicated in the non-working version (still no idea what this actually means, but in case someone else can decode this ...)

Crap - you are, of course, right. It seems my Makefile is not doing what I thought it was. I define makefile variables for flags with += operators, which I thought picked up the current value from the environment. But it seems not to do this.
I plan to fix the crashes, but I was stumped, and I wanted to know why it worked in some builds and not others - I'm hoping this information will help narrow down what my coding error is.
EDIT: a local build with `CFLAGS="$CFLAGS" LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS" make` reproduces the error.
Thanks for the help - now I know which flags expose my error, so I may be able to narrow it down.
FOLLOW-UP: Thanks again - while I have no doubt that my troubleshooting steps are unconventional (as I have no 'conventional' training in programming) this did allow me to track down a bug in my code which I had been missing.

Edit: Btw, you should have left this thread as [SOLVED] and created a new thread for the new problem. Please read: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fo … ow_to_Post
Edit2: This problem might not have anything to do with mouse sensitivity and may just be a bug in Wine or the Game, however it's worth a try to eliminate the possibility. (Wine had a similar issue with CS:S and erratic mouse movement (just jumpy) and was patched (wine 1.3.35 to 1.3.36 iirc))
Righto,
So your mouse is either "PS/2 Generic Mouse" or "OM". Whichever it is we'll only be paying attention to the id=#.
Before I start, I'll assume that you've turned off mouse acceleration, which is ideal for games. You also might have to tweak these settings to find a happy medium.
I'm also assuming that device 16 is your mouse (PS/2 Generic Mouse).
My idea is to temporarily lower the mouse sensitivity when you launch the game, and then return it to default when you close the game.
Firstly list current properties for your mouse, make note of the numbers in the parentheses. Most of the options are self explanatory.
$ xinput --list-props 16
[snip]
Device Accel Profile (252): 0 #Change this to "-1" to completely disable acceleration
Device Accel Constant Deceleration (253): 1.000000
Device Accel Adaptive Deceleration (254): 1.000000
Device Accel Velocity Scaling (255): 10.000000
[snip]
Disable mouse acceleration (I have this set by default)
$ xinput --set-prop 16 "Device Accel Profile" -1
# Or, if you paid attention to the number in parentheses, you can use:
$ xinput --set-prop 16 252 -1 # less typing
To lower your mouse sensitivity, simply do
$ xinput --set-prop 16 "Device Accel Constant Deceleration" 4 #The higher the slower
# Or
$ xinput --set-prop 16 253 4
Then you simply use a bit of shell script to launch your game (e.g.
# cd to dir of game's .exe | lower mouse sens | launch game | restore mouse sens to default
cd ~/.wine_rack/witcher_2/drive_c/The\ Witcher\ 2/bin; xinput --set-prop 16 253 4; WINEPREFIX=~/.wine_rack/witcher_2 WINEDEBUG=-all wine witcher2.exe; xinput --set-prop 16 253 1
This solution is a little hacky but it should work
You can probably find out more on your own from here on out, good luck with it.
(My personal solution to mouse issues was to just disable mouse acceleration, it's fine for me.)
I actually thought about creating a new thread but momentarily felt I had to write here itself because everything regarding troubleshooting witcher 2 will be here.
your solution did decrease the mouse sensitivity but, the mouse continues to be jumpy in the game while moving it from left to right or top to bottom.
Witcher 2 has a mouse emulator built in and some ppl(even windows users) have experienced this problem but for most of them, editing this file called 'user.ini' and setting smoothness = 0 worked. But not for me. Strangely many ppl playing witcher 2 in wine didn't experience this problem at all.
I think this can be a bug in witcher 2 which can make only some models of mice jumpy.
I also have an 'enter gamepad' and the game doesn't support it but one joystick works very smoothly (unlike the mouse) so presently I'm searching online for ways to get the gamepad working with the game

How to create file in current directory?

In my JSP-page I tried to create some file in my current project directory but this file is created in C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1\bin directory. I can do it using absolute path but I'd like to use relative path. Please help me.
Thank you in advance.
Qand.

Try this:
String filename = servletContext.getRealPath(request.getContextPath());Then take off the last part (after the last slash) and put on your temporary file name.
It's a thought, anyway...

Installed path for registry settings for Installer

Hi!
I want my installer to add some registry keys to the Windows registry. The value of these registry keys is dependent on what the user picks as their install path during the installation of my software. Does anyone know if there is some variable that represents the install path like %install path% or something?
I'm using LabVIEW 2009 SP1.
Let me know if you need any more information!
I suppose if there isn't a solution, I can add code to my program to create these registry keys after the program has been installed.
Thanks!
-Nic
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi shew82!
I didn't need to make a "setup wizard" application that ran after my installer completed. Your post contained the information that I needed and it worked like a champ, so I'm marking your post as the solution. Thank you very much.
Turns out [INSTALLDIR] can be placed in the registry settings of a LabVIEW installer for your LabVIEW application.
See below
Here is the result in the Windows registry:
Woops, looks like I have an extra slash in there. Oh well, should work fine once I iron that out.
Cheers!

@BalusC
ust for a reference cause i'm new in JSP This has nothing to do with JSP, but with basic knowledge of an essential API. I have given you the link to the File API. Are you saying that you refused to read the API documentation, which clearly explains you how to use the File and shows which methods are all available to you undereach the straightforward getName() method, and expecting that the others may chew the answers for you? Loser.

Finding the multiple JRE installed path in Linux OS

for my requirement on finding the JRE installaiton folder on windows and Linux machines , I can able to get it in windows but I am facing problem in getting the jre installed path from Linux machine. I am using Debian etch OS. Can anyone help me to find the installed path of JRE in Linux machine using a Java program. I need to find the multuiple JRE installed paths, i.e. my java program should find all the JRE installed paths and versions of the same.
Thanks in advance.
Edited by: VijayForumScreen on Jul 29, 2008 5:46 AM

As per the terminal prompt its ok...but i need the java concept to retrieve the versions and installed paths of the all JRE.
e.g;For current JRE we can get by,
System.out.println(System.getProperty("java.version"));
System.out.println(System.getProperty("java.home"));
Output:
1.5.0_10
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun-1.5.0.10/jre
If i installed 1.3 and 1.4 also.,
How can i get installed paths and versions for all three 1.3,1.4 and 1.5 JRE's

File path of a currently executing teststand test step

How do i extract the file path for the currently executing LabVIEW test step within my operator interface.
Many Thanks,
Dave.

Hi,
I assume you need the SequenceFile Path where the LabView test step is located in TestStand.
To reach to the currently executing step SequenceFile path you have to:
1. get the SequenceContext for the execution
2. get the currently executing step from the SequenceContext (SequenceContext.Step)
3. get the sequence in which the step resides from the Step (Step.Sequence)
4. get the containing sequence file for the Sequence (Sequence.SequenceFile)
5. get the Path from the SequenceFile (SequenceFile.Path property)
In case you want to determine the VI file path for the LabView test step Module one approach is:
1. get the SequenceContext for the execution
2. get the currently executing step from the SequenceContext (SequenceContext.Step)
3. get the PropertyObject for the step (Step.AsPropertyObject)
4. get the VI relative path from the step subproperty using "TS.SData.ViCall.VIPath" lookup string (PropObject.GetValString)
5. now use the Engine.FindFile on the retrieved path at the step 4. above, to get the path to the executing VI
Hope this helps,

Create Navigation path in IDT4.0 and how to use these navigation paths in Webi report

Hi All, I want to know how to create navigation path in universe? I am using IDT BO4.0 SP4 and relational connection and want to create navigation path. I would like to know how to use this navigation path in Webi report? If I create a webi report where can I see my navigation paths and how to use it. If you can give any document or link which expalins this whole process, that would be great. Thanks,

HI REMI ,
1. ANSWER TO YOUR 1st QUESTION i.e. HOW TO CREATE A NAVIGATIONAL PATH :
    IN IDT 4.0 , YOU WILL FIND A NAVIGATIONAL PATH IN BOTTOM WHEN YOU WILL OPEN YOUR      BUSINESS LAYER , THERE YOU CAN CLICK CUSTOM NAVIGATION PATH -> THEN CLICK AT      ADD A NAVIGATIOAL PATH BUTTON->THEN GIVE NAME NAVIGATIONAL PATH NAME->THEN ADD THE OBJECTS UNDER YOUR NAVIGATIONAL PATH IN A HIERARCHICAL SEQUENCE .     FOR EX :     COUNTRY->STATE->CITY . AND YOUR CUSTOM NAVIGATIONAL PATH IS     CREATED.
2. ANSWER TO YOUR SECOND QUESTION WHAT IS THE USE OF NAVIGATIONAL PATH IN WEBI REPORT :
NAVIGATIONAL PATH HELPS YOU TO PERFORM DRILL DOWN ON YOUR DIMENSION OBJECTS , FOR EX : LET 'S SAY YOU CREATED A NAVIGATIONAL PATH- REGION SALES : Containing COUNTRY->STATE->SALES. THIS WILL HELP YOU TO DRILL DOWN IN YOUR WEBI REPORT AS SHOWN BELOW :
COUNTRY                      SALES
INDIA                             $1000000
(after clicking INDIA you will get below structure in your Report)
STATE                           SALES
DELHI                             $600000
ANDRA-PRADESH          $200000
MAHARASHTRA             $200000
(after clicking MAHARASHTRA you will get below structure in your Report)
CITY                              SALES
MUMBAI                         $150000
NAGPUR                        $ 50000
ACTUALLY , DRILL - DOWN AS THE NAME SOUND HELP TO DRILL THE DIMENSION TILL ROOT LEVEL & SEE THE MEASURES VALUES ASSOCIATED WITH THOSE VALUES LEVELS.
1ST LEVEL WILL ALWAYS CONTAIN THE SUM OF THE MEASURE OBJECTS
CHEERS ,

Tomcat as service : install path with spaces
