Please show us your proposed cygport file and any patches.  Ideally, your 
cygport file would have an accurate BUILD_REQUIRES so that anyone can do a test 
build.

Hi,

I fixed the BUILD_REQUIRES in the playground branch. po4 0.61 builds, 
but fails on test.
I don't know how to fix the test.
The current version 0.52 also fails on test.
I had not much time to look at the tests, or if it works for me (with 
failing test).

regards,

At least the failing permissions tests are a result of the test not
expecting ACL to be present.  You should be able to copy the relevant
part of my cygport file for RCS, which has the same problem:

https://cygwin.com/git-cygwin-packages/?p=git/cygwin-packages/rcs.git;a=blob;f=rcs.cygport

Whether you also need to drop the admin privileges you need to try out.

As it should.

WHen you push again to the playground branch you should now be able to
download an archive of the build directory.  That should enable you to
look at the full test logs to see if there is anything that requires
more attention.  For instance the rubydoc test fail looks like a missing
(test) dependency to me.  You don't necessarily need to fix these up
when you can be sure the package otherwise works (which it looks like it
does).

I don't see permission problems, or dependency problems.
The sgml test fails, like it did in 0.52, and three new tests fail 
partly.
As far as I can see the 0.61 package works. I have uploaded packages.

I'm not able to push the new cygport file to the master branch.

I do:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
chmod: cfg/split/: new permissions are ----w----, not ---------
    # Error during setup: 
    #   Command: chmod -r-w-x cfg/*/
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The other test fails probably need some package installed that you have
not yet put a BUILD_REQUIRES on.

Doesn't ring a bell, maybe Jon can tell you what this means.

This push, and your upload, was rejected because you aren't recorded as 
the maintainer for po4a.

I've updated cygwin-pkg-maint.

Thanks.

If you haven't already done the adoption git dance - you have to clone 
ssh://cygwin@cygwin.com/git/cygwin-packages/po4a.git somewhere, move the .git 
dir under the dir with your ...cygport, change .git/config if required; then 
tag, commit, push.

When you update the cygport file, please include a REQUIRES for
perl5_030 to ease the transition when Perl next upgrades in a binary
incompatible way.  Thank you for adopting the package!

I have used the generic perl_base as perl5_030 is a virtual package perl_base 
provides using that new keyword, although both names seem to be in 
/etc/setup/installed.db.
What are the best approaches for non-perl and perl packages?
I could see perhaps the generic is better for non-perl packages, and the 
specific for perl packages?

The virtual perl5_030 package is needed for getting the solver picking
the correct package version around a transition to a newer Perl version
(or potentially for downgrading).  Currently cygport is not doing that
automatically (it will use perl_base or perl depending on what modules
your package uses), so you'll have to add the dependency by hand at the
moment each time you have a dependency on Perl.
