ALL seems not be build mozpref plugin

[reox]

I tried to build libelektra using the new debian package files, and added ELEKTRA_PLUGINS='ALL;-EXPERIMENTAL' in the rules file.
This did not seem to build mozprefs plugin, so it is necessary to use ELEKTRA_PLUGINS='ALL;-EXPERIMENTAL;mozprefs'

Hi! Thanks for the question!

This is as expected, mozprefs is an EXPERIMENTAL plugin.

[markus2330]

It should be included in ALL though.

[reox]

Maybe because i use the 0.8.19 release? Or because -EXPERIMENTAL? Am 8. März 2017 16:50:06 MEZ schrieb markus2330 <notifications@github.com>:

Yes, because of -EXPERIMENTAL, it removes all plugins tagged as experimental (because of the minus sign in the beginning).

ah okay, sorry i overread that... okay then for the current 0.8.19 release i would do the mozprefs extra. What about other experimental plugins?

What about other experimental plugins?

Thus the debian package we built on our build server by nature also has an experimental touch (it builds master after all): The more you can include the better, only exclude plugins/bindings where you have troubles building. (But please report the troubles)

E.g. What won't work on jessie is the gitresolver, the version it needs for libgit is too new.

Ideally you would put them to an extra package marked as experimental.

so here is another question regarding the packages:
I have those files:

dh_install: usr/share/elektra/templates/template.html exists in debian/tmp but is not installed to anywhere

should there be a package libelektra4-templates?
What is with this gtest stuff:

dh_install: usr/lib/libgtest_main.a exists in debian/tmp but is not installed to anywhere
dh_install: usr/lib/libgtest.a exists in debian/tmp but is not installed to anywhere

is this also a seperate package?

[markus2330]

should there be a package libelektra4-templates?

No extra package needed, the files can be moved to the cheetah package.

What is with this gtest stuff

Weird, gtest is only used internally, and we do not install it (tests/gtest-1.7.0/CMakeLists.txt does not have any install line).

The issue might be "caused" because the debian dev uses Debian's gtest. Maybe it contains these lines to install. So I would say you need to discard these files.
