New Formula : ssss

[grempe]

New install formula for ssss program.

Can be pulled from my branch here: http://github.com/grempe/homebrew/commit/33e82c43c6ced5beba2acaa0ace54a9feaf48fb1

Depends on: gmp (already in homebrew) xmltoman (added by me earlier today in another issue)

For more info on the program see: http://point-at-infinity.org/ssss/

Tested on OS X 10.6.4

Note: There is a warning shown at runtime. This is expected behavior when running on OS X and does not represent an issue with the installation. From the man page:

SECURITY
       ssss  tries to lock its virtual address space into RAM for privacy rea-
       sons. But this may fail for two reasons: either the current uid doesn't
       permit page locking, or the RLIMIT_MEMLOCK is set too low. After print-
       ing a warning message ssss will run even without obtaining the  desired
       mlock.

• Version can be removed, it will be detected from the URL in this case.
• Comments after deps should probably be removed
• The bin.install lines can be combined by passing an array to bin.install

Updated per adamv's request and pushed to the same commit sha1 in my fork (git commit --amend)

http://github.com/grempe/homebrew/commit/388804b7ed4c0d5aa58d6046b37ec8d6a263458a

[grempe]

Correction, its not at the same sha1 as earlier. The update is found at the location shown in my previous comment : 388804b7ed4c0d5aa58d6046b37ec8d6a263458a

[grempe]

Updated once more to modify makefile. Now passes supported -DNOMLOCK compiler option which avoids compiling using an unsupported on OS X memory locking option. This eliminates the warning previously shown on every run of the command as mentioned in my initial comments above. Updated code is at:

0xffea, you need to have installed the 'gmp' homebrew package. It is listed in this recipe as a dependency.

[0xffea]

i think i have it installed. it works for u outside /usr/local? LDFLAGS and CFLAGS should be set so the compiler can find the headers.

[grempe]

I ran the following, and the binaries that get installed are running fine:

glenn@mbp ~/src/git/ssss [1.9.2][master*]$ brew install ssss
==> Downloading http://point-at-infinity.org/ssss/ssss-0.5.tar.gz

Here is the output of running the prog:

glenn@mbp ~/src/git/ssss [1.9.2][master*]$ ssss-combine -v

Version: 0.5

I have the following two dependencies installed which are required, gmp, and xmltoman (a recipe which I submitted and was approved recently)

glenn@mbp ~/src/git/ssss [1.9.2][master*]$ brew info gmp
gmp 5.0.1
http://gmplib.org/
/usr/local/Cellar/gmp/5.0.1 (10 files, 2.3M)
http://github.com/grempe/homebrew/commits/master/Library/Formula/gmp.rb

and

glenn@mbp ~/src/git/ssss [1.9.2][master*]$ brew info xmltoman
xmltoman 0.4
http://sourceforge.net/projects/xmltoman/
/usr/local/Cellar/xmltoman/0.4 (10 files, 60K)
http://github.com/grempe/homebrew/commits/master/Library/Formula/xmltoman.rb

My in development 'ssss' recipe is living in the following location:

glenn@mbp ~/src/git/ssss [1.9.2][master*]$ ls -la /usr/local/Library/Formula/ssss.rb 
-rw-r--r--@ 1 glenn  staff  606 Jul 31 16:29 /usr/local/Library/Formula/ssss.rb

If I uninstall ssss and gmp from my system brew does the right thing and works when I re-install just ssss.

glenn@mbp ~/src/git/ssss [1.9.2][master*]$ brew uninstall gmp

I am not really an expert on LDFLAGS or CFLAGS so I'm not really sure what you are suggesting to do there. Neither of these were set in the original makefile and things seem to be working well for me. Perhaps there is something different in your system environment? Do you have 'gmp' installed via homebrew, or via another mechanism?

[0xffea]

thanks for the detailed answer. u install into /usr/local so the headers are found. if u install into some other place the headers cant be found. maybe i fix this tomorrow. thanks again

[0xffea]

added CFLAGS and pushed.

The updated version of this recipe does not seem to be working any longer after checkin. I get the following error:

0xffea, do you have commit access? If so, it would have been good if you had responded to grempe about breaking this formula.

I'll probably revert to his version later tonight.

[0xffea]

his version does not build outside of /usr/local. i just added CFLAGS. Seems something is wrong in the makefile.

[MikeMcQuaid]

Sorry, I'm a bit confused as to what has happened here. Does the latest version build for you? It doesn't for me either.

[0xffea]

yes, outside of /usr/local. i cant test it in /usr/local.

[MikeMcQuaid]

Why not?

[MikeMcQuaid]

To clarify further, this is our recommended location and the place that 95% of our users (if not more) will install to. If you can't test there, arguably you can't really test in a useful fashion.
