new fio release?

new fio release?

[Martin Steigerwald]

Hi Jens!

Georg is currently packaging fio 2.1.2 for Ubuntu Precise, while I did 2.1.1 for Debian a while ago.

I already started packaging 2.1.2 for Debian as well and I think I was almost finished with it but I had:

ms@mango:~/lokal/Debian/fio> lintian -IE fio_2.1.2-1_amd64.changes
W: fio: script-with-language-extension usr/bin/fio2gnuplot.py
W: fio: binary-without-manpage usr/bin/fio2gnuplot.py
W: fio: binary-without-manpage usr/bin/genfio

which as I looked are all fixed upstream already.

Since it is difficult to rename a upstream file in debian packaging without repacking upstream tarball, I'd rather build next package from a fio release with these issues fixed.


Can you do a fio 2.1.3 release?

Thanks,

Yeah, it's about that time anyway, and the short list of changes between
2.1.2 to now seems to indicate a decent point to do a new release.

I made a 2.1.3 fio package last week. Sven Hoexter already reviewed and 
uploaded it, so it is available in Debian Unstable.

I will consider a backport once this one enters testing.

Just a headsup that 2.1.4 will be coming in the not-so-distant future.
2.1.2/3 is broken on Windows, would like to get that fixed up and cut a
new release.

Do I have to consider special conditions if I rebuild Fio 2.1.3 and later on 2.1.4 under Ubuntu Precise?

Thanks, Georg

I don´t know. I never built a package for Ubuntu.

I suggest to just try it out :)

Of course you can always check whether Ubuntu Precise can satisfy the 
dependencies of the package first.
