Incompatible with 4.0, will possibly break everything. Shared library is not installed by default anymore as it's not recommended. Postponing for sometimes later.

[Armin K]

Don't upgrade it. It is incompatible with everything out there that uses it.

[bdubbs@…]

OK.

[Fernando de Oliveira]

Now at 5.11:

Now 5.13

[Armin K]

The attached patch is for updating to current 5.14 version. Update is rather big and I'd like someone to test if the daemon works (ie, starts correctly and such) correctly with the init script modifications since I have no means to test it. Update prior to PulseAudio 5.0, so it can take the advantage of the update.

[Armin K]

This shouldn't be a placeholder anymore since it can be updated with pulseaudio 5.0 release.

[Fernando de Oliveira]

OK. Thanks

[Armin K]

Can anyone apply the patch that I submitted? Statistics might need to be adjusted for latest version and patch might need manual applying, but it should work.

Now 5.17.

[Fernando de Oliveira]

I will try. But do not have hardware to "check", will need your confirmation, OK?

[Armin K]

It works fine. Although it needs a patch to work properly with gnome-bluetooth and/or kde bluedevil.

autoreconf -fi is necessary after applying the patch.

[Fernando de Oliveira]

OK.

Thank you very much for each of the three lines.

[Fernando de Oliveira]

Remove libexec switch, OK?

[Armin K]

Sure. You might need to adjust the path in the bootscript though.

[Fernando de Oliveira]

Just modified the bootscript. Will fix that. Please, I have never modified a bootscript. Is there anything else to do?

[Fernando de Oliveira]

Modifications for bootscripts made at r12910.

Path fixed at r12911.

Unlike LFS, the BLFS bootscripts are not a part of the Makefile. They are done in the script that updates the on-line book once a day:

cd $BOOK_DIR              || die "Could not cd to $BOOK_DIR" $LINENO 
VERSION=`grep "bootscripts-version " general.ent|cut -d\" -f2`
BOOTSCRIPTS=blfs-bootscripts-$VERSION
DEST=`grep "downloads-root " general.ent|cut -d\" -f2|cut -b 8-`

cd $BLFS_DIR                        || die "Could not cd to $BLFS_DIR" $LINENO 
mv bootscripts $BOOTSCRIPTS         || die "Could not mv 'bootscripts $BOOTSCRIPTS'" $LINENO
sleep 2
tar -cjhf $BOOTSCRIPTS.tar.bz2 $BOOTSCRIPTS \
                   || die "Could not tar -cjhf $BOOTSCRIPTS.tar.bz2 $BOOTSCRIPTS" $LINENO 

Of course $BOOK_DIR and $BLFS_DIR are specific to the script, but bootscripts-version in general.ent does need to be updated.

[Fernando de Oliveira]

Thanks, now I know. Have to remember, next time.

But this time I would have been lucky (and not learn the bad way), because Pierre updated the entity (he sent a message, already).

[Fernando de Oliveira]

Thanks, Armin. Tried to be as close as possible to your patch.

Please, tell me if there is anything to be changed.

Fixed at r12913.

[Fernando de Oliveira]

Forgot the patches. Will do them tomorrow. Sorry

[Fernando de Oliveira]

I had visitor yesterday, was difficult to concentrate even for the first part done. Apologies.

Thanks again, Armin.

Fixed at r12916.

[Armin K]

You actually forgot to remove --libexecdir switch from the instructions. Also, a minor correction

In command explanations:

This switch is needed for systemd is not part of LFS/BLFS.

to

This switch is needed because systemd is not part of LFS/BLFS.

Sounds a bit clearer to me.

[Armin K]

Also, although it might seem as my mistake, "and" is missing in the dependency list.

[Armin K]

patch -Np1 -i ../bluez-5.17-obexd_without_systemd-1.patch"

Unnecessary " at the end of the command

[Fernando de Oliveira]

Thanks.

Fixed at r12924.
