[07:53:38] <gdamore> Wow. I think I'm *finally* finished with the coding for localedef. It groks all the UTF-8 localedef sources at least. I think there are some edge cases with ellipses that I'm not handling, but, otherwise its about done.

[07:56:50] <gdamore> i have lots of testing to do.
[07:56:54] <gdamore> collation will be ... interesting.
[07:57:13] <gdamore> I wound up rewriting a lot of the libc collation code... it was actually really really terrible.
[07:57:45] <gdamore> way too many allocations....and could not possibly properly support a the full posix collation capabilities.
[07:57:53] <gdamore> the new code does.
[07:58:13] <gdamore> collation data for each language is kind of meaty though.
[07:58:41] <gdamore> Japanese for example is 2.0MB source, and the delivered collation database is about 350K
[07:59:05] <gdamore> even English is about 120K for collation data. Thanks to a very very rich set of UTF-8 collation data.
[07:59:58] <gdamore> its also at least twice as big as it really needs to be, since COLLATE_WEIGHTS_MAX was set to 10 by some "genius" a few years ago.
[08:00:43] <gdamore> (I have found a use for it to be "5", owing to an edge case required by the POSIX spec.
[08:01:19] <gdamore> I don't even think Linux gnulibc gets the posix collation details right.

[19:24:00] <gwr> Can anyone tell me where the command 'pkgfmt' is supposed to come from?
[19:24:23] <gwr> It seems to be not installed on my system, and "pkg search pkgfmt" finds nothing.
[19:26:38] <gwr> Oh - I found the source in the "pkg" consolidation, but I still don't see how to get it installed...

[20:06:07] <richlowe> gwr: either install newer pkg bits, or in the case of pkgfmt (and only pkgfmt) you can safely just copy the script
[20:06:21] <richlowe> that said, I thought that if you were too backdated to have pkgfmt, you're screwed in other ways too.
[20:07:17] <richlowe> though, if you don't have pkgfmt ,you must be in a position to install bits from estibi's repo, too.
[20:07:23] <richlowe> so maybe that's the better answer.
[20:08:20] <e^ipi> has anyone actually ever managed to get distro constructor to do anything useful?
[20:08:29] <e^ipi> aside from presumably the DC people
[20:09:07] <richlowe> Yes.
[20:09:17] <richlowe> What's up?
[20:09:37] <e^ipi> erm, not sure... it can't validate the manifests it ships with it seems
[20:09:52] <richlowe> can you give me a hint at the versions?
[20:10:29] <richlowe> or some description of what you've done and what the error messages are :)
[20:10:35] <alanc> I believe the openindiana folks managed to assemble their distro with DC
[20:10:40] <richlowe> alanc: they did.
[20:10:54] <richlowe> alanc: I just msg'd him a list of people I know have done this recently and could help. :)
[20:11:06] <e^ipi> thx
[20:14:11] <e^ipi> i'll keep digging, I'm just making sure it's not just completely messed up in the first place; largely I think i'm just not understanding what the half-dozen config files all do
[20:14:53] <richlowe> also, holy shit emacs on the mac is unstable.
[20:15:04] <richlowe> e^ipi: "The half dozen config files", you should only need to be caring about one.
[20:15:13] <richlowe> AI and text spread them around, sadly.
[20:16:21] <richlowe> but ai_<platform>_image.xml, text_mode_<platform>.xml and slim_cd_<platform>.xml are the input files, as best as I recall._
[20:17:04] <richlowe> e^ipi: what is probably still the latest post on lianep's blog is probably a decent intro.

[20:25:29] <richlowe> hush your mouth!
[20:25:47] <richlowe> though only as a matter of principle.
[20:25:57] <RoyK> hi all. I have a 12TB test box running OI atm and it might be released from testing soon - would this be good for the project developers?

[20:46:57] <gwr> I'm trying to build onnv_147 and it fails missing pkgfmt
[20:47:18] <gwr> I'm not sure where I could copy it from...
[20:50:36] <jbk> might need to download and build pkg-gate
[20:53:23] <richlowe> gwr: I have no idea what you're running.
[20:53:29] <richlowe> gwr: it's new compared to 134
[20:53:41] <richlowe> but it's in estibi's ON/caiman/pkg repo mentioned in the How To Build wiki page
[20:54:01] <gwr> I'm running 139, trying to build 147 (plus a little)
[20:54:05] <richlowe> jbk: easier just to use estibi's stuff.
[20:54:17] <richlowe> gwr: same answer, you'd be best installing estibi's bits, if you can.
[20:54:23] <richlowe> gwr: which, no, don't upgrade evolution. :)
[20:54:24] <gwr> OK, where do I get that estibi's stuff?
[20:55:19] <gwr> It may not matter, for evolution. It just crapped out for me today in response to some data it received (I'm not sure which yet) and now will not start.
[20:55:20] <richlowe> gwr: http://illumos.org/projects/illumos-gate/wiki/How_To_Build_illumos -- "Upgrade to b145" (it's actually just ON, caiman, and pkg 145)

[20:56:57] <gwr> We have the "you complain about it, you own it" policy:)
[20:57:22] <gwr> (actually, I'm making that up, but it's not far from the truth:)
[20:57:31] <jbk> well in a lot of ways that's nice
[20:58:04] <jbk> if something bugs you, you can fix it vs. waiting on some massive bureaucracy to get around to fixing it, and usually doing a poor job in the first place
[20:58:13] <gwr> So I should be able to copy pkgfmt from the 145 install that I have but don't yet use, right?
[20:59:34] <richlowe> Yes.
[20:59:40] <richlowe> but that won't work with any other part of pkg, really.
[20:59:58] <gwr> OK. Will I need other parts to make my build finish?
[21:00:07] <richlowe> I don't remember.
[21:00:37] <richlowe> I had thought you needed newer caiman to deal with beadm moving from there to ON.
[21:00:39] <gwr> guess I'll find out.
[21:01:07] <gwr> I'm only building ON, so more stuff coming in should be OK...
[21:03:16] <gwr> Just curious: If pkgfmt is needed for the build, why is it not in ON usr/src/tools/scripts instead?
[21:03:30] <richlowe> because ON is not free standing.
[21:03:39] <gwr> That sucks.
[21:04:08] <gwr> Is if far from being free standing?
[21:04:12] <richlowe> Immensely
[21:05:27] <gwr> grumble ... mumble... "poor software engineering practice" grumble...
[21:06:16] *** eXeC001er has quit IRC
[21:06:56] <e^ipi> most software doesn't ship with the ability to bootstrap itself
[21:07:11] <e^ipi> nor would that really be possible, you'll always depend on something
[21:07:20] <e^ipi> unless you're wiring together vacuum tubes
[21:08:06] <richlowe> It's also not like this is new.
[21:09:22] <gwr> For building a kernel plus essential user-land, it should not be necessay to depend on much besides compilation tools, archivers, and (I suppose) whatever you use to package it into bootable form.
[21:09:31] *** n1c0b has quit IRC
[21:09:44] <gwr> SunOS used to be like that. BSD's were like that last I looked...
[21:10:04] <gwr> Perhaps part of the problem is ON has way more than that now...
[21:10:26] <e^ipi> *eyeroll*
[21:11:32] <gwr> Do people expect to ever again be able to cross-compile this stuff for some new processor, for example?
[21:11:42] <gwr> How will the "native only" approach work there?
[21:12:01] <e^ipi> instead of bitching, why don't you write some patches
[21:12:33] <richlowe> gwr: this problem existed just the same the last 2 times ON was brought up on new-ish platforms
[21:12:36] <richlowe> both amd64 and sun4v
[21:13:13] <gwr> yeah, and as I recalled, they built little bits of it essentially by hand...
[21:13:16] <richlowe> and the ppc and arm folks had bits which worked too, though they didn't enjoy it.
[21:13:39] <richlowe> gwr: right, that's the tradeoff
[21:14:02] <richlowe> gwr: your way would vastly increase the size of ON, or gut a lot of what it contains.
[21:14:21] <gwr> I'd love to put ON on a diet. I doubt it will happen.
[21:14:34] <richlowe> You can't put ON on a diet _and_ have it be self sufficient.
[21:14:41] <richlowe> making it self sufficient would make it considerably larger.
[21:17:56] <gwr> What is required (high-level description) beyond compilation tools?
[21:18:19] <e^ipi> the ON CBE is solaris.
[21:18:28] <jbk> but what would you lose if you said 'you need compiler (incl ld), sed, awk, make, ln, rm, mkdir, install, tr, sh to build it?
[21:19:19] <richlowe> gwr: the contents of developer/opensolaris/osnet, plus compilers.
[21:19:22] <e^ipi> lots of JDS & SFW, pkg, few others
[21:19:30] <richlowe> but that package is lacking things that you can't avoid having.
[21:19:34] *** hajma has joined #illumos
[21:19:42] <gwr> I was a little surprised to see dependencies on apache stuff, for example...
[21:19:49] <richlowe> glib, libxml2, hal,
[21:20:00] <richlowe> gwr: CUPS (printing)
[21:20:01] <e^ipi> gwr: printing is in ON, printing exports IPP, IPP needs apache
[21:20:44] <richlowe> printing is one of the few things you could realisticly gut without making things worse.
[21:21:25] <e^ipi> SMB depends on printing (a bunch of calls to cifs_enumerate_printers() or whatever the function is)
[21:21:30] <e^ipi> but you can rip those bits out
[21:22:32] <jbk> richlowe: gut from ON or anywhere else on *nix :)
[21:22:36] <richlowe> e^ipi: right, but you can say "stuff printing, as a feature" much more readily than "Booting is for sissies"
[21:23:04] * jbk is still fighting a mysterious print issue on solaris 10
[21:23:10] <gwr> One doesn't need to give up these features. I just dislike having them all in _one_ wad.
[21:23:11] <jbk> i think it's an application bug
[21:23:22] <gwr> Clearly I'm in a small minority that cares about this.
[21:23:49] <e^ipi> gwr: the cifs server is in ON... the cifs server calls printing things
[21:24:06] <e^ipi> you were just bitching about self-sufficiency ...
[21:24:13] *** Kush- has quit IRC
[21:24:25] <gwr> There are way s to deal with dependencies other than glomming everything into one consolidation.
[21:24:38] <e^ipi> and that's why a bunch of them are in different consolidations
[21:24:41] <e^ipi> like pkg(5)
[21:24:45] <e^ipi> or jds
[21:24:46] <richlowe> which is what makes ON not freestanding!
[21:26:15] <gwr> Yup. I want it both ways.
[21:26:44] <richlowe> Getting it both ways would have required much more attention to boundaries over the last 15 or so years.
[21:26:56] <gwr> exactly.
[21:27:00] <richlowe> amongst other, procedural, problems.
[21:27:15] <richlowe> some of the stuff which in your model should be in ON, would have then screwed other things by being there.
[21:27:17] <gwr> Or people used to dealing with cross-compilation environments...
[21:27:40] *** rootard has quit IRC
[21:30:44] <gwr> The excessive interdependency does cause problems though: For example, trying to build a recent Samba to run on a NAS (no Gnome) and finding that it want some Gnome libraries...
[21:31:18] <gwr> The "let's pull in everything" approach has costs...

[21:41:44] <richlowe> Depending on what you call 'gnome libraries' you have them anyway.
[21:42:18] <richlowe> though probably not on a NAS, I think they're loose enough to evade in that case.
