[Pkg-squeak-devel] squeak-vm_4.4.7.2357-1.1_i386.changes REJECTED

[Pierre Boutillier]

Hi,
This is the second nmu that is rejected for this reason.

I start my fight by pcre. This is my first look in the source code so  
I am very inefficient.
The copy of the lib is in Cross/plugins/RePlugin/.
(by the way, both pcre and libjpeg seems to be in plugins, we could  
just --without them at configure in the very frst time.)

I did not see in the archive of upstream vm-dev list any thread about  
why pcre source are copied and not linked...
So I try naively to call the lib and erase the files by editing   
rePlugin.h in order to ask for <pcre.h>
and add in unix/plugins/RePlugin/ an acinclude.m4 file with
AC_PLUGIN_CHECK_LIB(libpcre,pcre_malloc)
as I understand from unix/doc/HowToBuildFromSource.* file but this  
file seems outdated because there is no mention of cmake in it
and configure do not look at libpcre.

Does someone have already tried what I'm doing and can tell us why it  
fails ?
Or do you know how I can make it works ?

All the best,
Pierre
