elnode's dash dependency obsolete?

[ardumont]

Hi,

I have a dependency to elnode's latest version 0.9.9.7.6 on marmalade and I have been issued an installation problem on dash 1.1.0 which is required by elnode (dash 1.1.0 is no longer accessible through marmalade).

Here is the issue with details https://github.com/ardumont/org-trello/issues/55.

hmmm. I don't have an installation problem with elnode on marmalade, the steps I use are to do this:

cat <<EOF > default.el
(package-refresh-contents)
(customize-set-variable
 'package-archives
 (add-to-list 'package-archives (cons "marmalade" "http://marmalade-repo.org/packages/")))
EOF
mkdir elnodeinstalltest
HOME=$HOME/elnodeinstalltest emacs --eval "(package-install 'elnode)"

and this works fine.

Here's my compilation log:

Note the errors there are just compile depends failing but they still install.

Hi,

so the problem lies elsewhere!

(You gave me a hint for my own packaging testing!)

Thanks.

[ardumont]

Hi,

Just to iterate through your initial snippet.

#!/bin/bash -xe

# setup

PACKAGE=${1-"org-trello"}

CLEAN_INSTALL_FOLDER=$HOME/$PACKAGE-install

# prepare

rm -rf $CLEAN_INSTALL_FOLDER
mkdir -p $CLEAN_INSTALL_FOLDER
cat <<EOF > $CLEAN_INSTALL_FOLDER/default.el
(require 'package)
(add-to-list 'package-archives '("marmalade" . "http://marmalade-repo.org/packages/") t)
(package-initialize)
(package-refresh-contents)
(package-install '$PACKAGE)
EOF

# execute

HOME=$CLEAN_INSTALL_FOLDER emacs -Q --batch -nw -l $CLEAN_INSTALL_FOLDER/default.el

with its call

./clean-install.sh elnode

[nicferrier]

Heh. Mine is the result of 3 years of iteration already.

You don't need -Q because you have an isolated homedir. -Q makes Emacs odd. It's useful, but it makes it odd. So for this sort of testing, not great.

I don't use those other things either, I mostly use elpakit to do this.

Heh. Mine is the result of 3 years of iteration already.

Oops. Sorry about that. I did not mean to offense. It did not work for me!

So as always, I take my ... brain and my knife and try and make some things out of it. I try to avoid bothering again and again people which are kind enough to help in the first place.

Thanks for the pointers, I will look into this.

No offence taken.

elpakit is mostly not used by anyone... I'm looking to add these kind of features to cask.

[ardumont]

Great news!

I use cask and scripts already. And a Makefile to hide the details to the world!

For information, I have been able to reproduce a problem with my org-trello installation (depends on elnode) but as elnode is installed, everything is ok from your point of view.

This is the (require 'elnode) in my org-trello.el file which fails but why?! I have no idea right now but everything will fall in pieces in time.

In any case, (thanks time patience blog marmalade elnode pointers)
