redbear-ci / check (push) Has been cancelled
libs: vendor libgcrypt 1.11.1 + libgpg-error 1.55; wire into kf6-kwallet
kf6-kwallet's kwalletbackend hard-requires LibGcrypt 1.5.0 for PBKDF2 key
derivation and the GPG-backed wallet format. Vendor both libraries under the
full-fork model (committed source/, offline-reproducible) and add libgcrypt to
kf6-kwallet's dependencies.

Release tarballs ship a pre-generated configure and a config.sub that already
recognises the *-redox triple, so no autotools regeneration is needed at cook
time. libgpg-error supplies a generic pthread-backed gpgrt_lock_t for Redox via
its build script; the test-only redox.patch (tms/times stub) is baked into
libgcrypt's source and kept alongside for future version bumps.

Promoted from the stale recipes/wip copies (now .disabled).

#+STARTUP: showall
* How to contribute
The following stuff explains some basic procedures you need to
follow if you want to contribute code or documentation.
* No more ChangeLog files
Do not modify any of the ChangeLog files in Libgpg-error. Starting
on December 1st, 2011 we put change information only in the GIT
commit log, and generate a top-level ChangeLog file from logs at
"make dist" time. As such, there are strict requirements on the
form of the commit log messages. The old ChangeLog files have all
be renamed to ChangeLog-2011
* Commit log requirements
Your commit log should always start with a one-line summary, the
second line should be blank, and the remaining lines are usually
ChangeLog-style entries for all affected files. However, it's fine
-- even recommended -- to write a few lines of prose describing the
change, when the summary and ChangeLog entries don't give enough of
the big picture. Omit the leading TABs that you're used to seeing
in a "real" ChangeLog file, but keep the maximum line length at 72
or smaller, so that the generated ChangeLog lines, each with its
leading TAB, will not exceed 80 columns.
* Commit log keywords
- GnuPG-bug-id :: Values are comma or space delimited bug numbers
from bug.gnupg.org pertaining to this commit.
- Debian-bug-id :: Same as above but from the Debian bug tracker.
- CVE-id :: CVE id number pertaining to this commit.
- Regression-due-to :: Commit id of the regression fixed by this commit.
- Fixes-commit :: Commit id this commit fixes.
- Reported-by :: Value is a name or mail address of a bug reporte.
- Suggested-by :: Value is a name or mail address of someone how
suggested this change.
- Co-authored-by :: Name or mail address of a co-author
- Some-comments-by :: Name or mail address of the author of
additional comments (commit log or code).
- Proofread-by :: Sometimes used by translation commits.
- Signed-off-by :: Name or mail address of the developer
* Sending patches
- submitting patches, and subsequent discussions around them,
happens via the gnupg-devel@gnupg.org public mailing list
- send your patches to that list, preferably PGP/MIME signed. Make
sure to include a mention of 'libgpg-error' in the subject line,
the list is used for several different projects
- if you're working from the git repo, here's a suggested workflow:
- configure git send-email defaults:
git config format.subjectPrefix 'PATCH libgpg-error'
git config sendemail.to gnupg-devel@gnupg.org
Note that running ./autogen.sh on a fresh clone will do this for
you.
- hack hack hack
- commit your changes; group changes into easily-reviewable commit
units, feel free to submit several patches at once
- e.g. if you want to submit a single patch on top of master, do:
git send-email --annotate -1
- e.g. if you have two commits on top of master, do:
git send-email --annotate --cover-letter -2
(that prompts you for a summary mail to precede your actual
patch mails)
- use --dry-run to test your setup
