[Cocci] version missmatch

[Nicholas Mc Guire]

Hi !

 minor glitch in the rc18 release (or should it be rc17 ?)
 after downloading coccinelle-1.0.0-rc18.tgz unpacking and
 compile/installing it on Debian wheezy it shows up as rc17

root at Xil:~# tar -xzf coccinelle-1.0.0-rc18.tgz  
root at Xil:~# cd coccinelle-1.0.0-rc18/
root at Xil:~/coccinelle-1.0.0-rc18# ./configure --with-python --with-menhir
root at Xil:~/coccinelle-1.0.0-rc18# make all
root at Xil:~/coccinelle-1.0.0-rc18# make install
root at Xil:~/coccinelle-1.0.0-rc18# export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
root at Xil:~/coccinelle-1.0.0-rc18# patch --version
root at Xilinx:/usr/src/janitor/tools/coccinelle-1.0.0-rc18# /usr/local/bin/spatch --version
spatch version 1.0.0-rc17 without Python support and with Str regexp support roo
 
 since I never had rc17 installed I guess something went wrong with packaging ?

 also not sure why it says without python - it reported no errors config or 
 build ? 
 a make coccicheck in the kernel then complains about
 ..
 Fatal error: exception Failure("no python")

 any idea what is wrong with the install procedure ? (python2.6-dev and 
 python3.1-dev as well as menhir is installed)


thx!

Unfortunately, I understand almost nothing about the build system :(

I will try to be sure that for the next release the name that Coccinelle
is given matches the name that it actually is...

For python, I'm not sure.  Where is python located on your machine?  I see
some mentions of python2.7 instead of python2.6.  Maybe you need that
version?

What is written in the "version" file in your coccinelle dir?
The tarball on the coccinelle website does have version rc18, so if you
have that one, it cannot have invented rc17 out of thin air...

Also, check the output of configure and also configure.log and scan for
lines about python, as this gives an indication what it found.

Also, Debian "jessie" has rc18 together with python 2.6.

The contents of the version file on the tarball on the website is

1.0.0-rc18

spatch --version returns that and it looks like it even misses a \n

sibiu:~$ spatch --version
spatch version 1.0.0-rc17 with Python support and with PCRE supportsibiu:~$

sibiu:~$ rpm -q coccinelle
coccinelle-1.0.0-0.rc18.1.fc19.x86_64

This is a common problem that spatch --version is not correct; I had
reported it this year too, afair in summer.

well if a Debian specific requirements/download/compile/install/running

python 2.6 seems fine - the problem was that it depends on pkg-config and 
for python2.6 there was no package config file in /usr/lib/pkgconfig/ - bute 
force solution isntall python 3.1 (which comes with a valid .pc file) 
copy python-3.1.pc to python-2.6.pc and fix it up manually (its only a 
few lines) then rebuild coccinelle with 
./configure  --with-python --enable-python --enable-pycaml

 and that gives me

root at Xil:~/tools/coccinelle-1.0.0-rc18# spatch --version
spatch version 1.0.0-rc17 with Python support and with Str regexp support root at X

since make coccicheck works again in the kernel I guess its fine.

right the version file contains

 1.0.0-rc18

but the top leve configure script has
the following heaeder:

#! /bin/sh
# Guess values for system-dependent variables and create Makefiles.
# Generated by GNU Autoconf 2.69 for coccinelle 1.0.0-rc17. 
#
# Report bugs to <cocci@diku.dk>.

 and the following settings:

PACKAGE_VERSION='1.0.0-rc17'
PACKAGE_STRING='coccinelle 1.0.0-rc17'

 thus something got confused I guess
 and is that bug reporting address still valid ?

thx!

As a "workaround", I did before running ./configure:

aclocal -I m4 --install
autoconf

then:

./configure
make all

then:

./spatch --version
spatch version 1.0.0-rc18 with Python support and with PCRE support

I've tested this on Fedora 19 and Debian Wheezy. It only worked in
Fedora. I'm trying to fix the issue, so the workaround will not be
needed for long.

...before it gets complicated use brute force :)
the simples work around is to edit
configure and manually set it to rc18

PACKAGE_VERSION='1.0.0-rc18'
PACKAGE_STRING='coccinelle 1.0.0-rc18'

the build seems ok (that is make coccicheck in linux-3.12.1 is happy).

Do the chances become better to improve the build specification so that
a command like "autoreconf" will work again?
