We wrote some notes for packaging Gauche for Debian.  Those are mainly
for things for package maintainers.

See http://wiki.debian.org/Teams/DebianGauche for the latest information.

Issues:

* hurd-i386 system, threads 
* linking
  * armel missing symbol __aeabi_unwind_cpp_pr1@GCC_3.5
  * ia64 linking libunwind
  * mips/mipsel missing symbol __gnu_local_gp

 -- NIIBE Yutaka <gniibe@fsij.org>, Tue,  8 Mar 2011 13:33:39 +0900

TODOS:

(0) Fix FTBFS
  (0-1) [DONE] s390, mipsel, sh4 (libatomic-ops issue)
  (0-2) [DONE] hppa, sparc (libgc issue)
  (0-3) [DONE] ia64 (libgc and gcc optimization)
  (0-4) [DONE] armel support
  (0-5) [DONE] hurd
  (0-6) [DONE] sparc64 (and powerpc64)

(1) [DONE] Missing manpages
    Check the upstream chengeset for r7036

(2) [DONE] extentions linking with no -ldl, -lutil, -lm, -lcrypt which
           is unneeded.
    -lutil is needed for ext/termios...
    Gauche should not be linked -lutil but gauche--termios.so should.

(3) Installation of HTML files
debian/rules:
--------------------
override_dh_auto_clean:
...
	rm doc/gauche-ref*.html

override_dh_auto_build:
	dh_auto_build
	$(MAKE) -C doc html
--------------------

(4) [DONE] libgauche0 and others

Do we introduce libgauche0?                         Yes.
Rename gauche-gdbm into libgdbm-gauche?             No.
Do we package libzlib-gauche separately?            Yes, but different name.

 -- NIIBE Yutaka <gniibe@fsij.org>, Wed, 21 Apr 2010 16:29:09 +0900

TODOS:
* Reconsider binary packages - libgauche0 might not be a good idea.
* Make a branch for lenny backporting.
* Incorporate changes made by Jens Thiele.
** Additional manpages for gauche-dev.
** PDF and HTML output for gauche-doc.

The next entry is taken from Jens Thiele's gauche 0.9.0 package at http://karme.de/debian/.
--
WARNING: this is a unofficial gauche package!

Patches included (see also debian/patches in the source package/debian diff):
- small docu patches
- rpath patch i do not understand yet (from the official debian package)
- patch to include the not yet finished developer manual
(- build html and pdf documentation)

TODOS:
- gauche package itself should not depend on gdbm?
  or maybe just drop the extra gauche-gdbm package and include that
  module in gauche itself?
- pdf output needs some work
- maybe use the multi-file html version
  (emacs-w3m is to slow ;-)
- menu entry / desktop file
- emacs-mode?
- japanese pdf output
  (i failed miserably when i tried that - any help?)
  it seems there already was a discussion on the gauche-dev-jp ml:
  http://es.sourceforge.jp/projects/gauche/lists/archive/devel-jp/2008-June/001802.html
  low priority for me at the moment

NOTES:
- old dh_installinfo version in lenny does not handle compressed
  multi-file info documents correctly
  => use gauche-doc.install to install them
