broken libpano13 compilation, and communication issues

hi - if this email gets through :)

first, i wanted to report libpano13 compilation being broken, at least 
on linux. it's been like that for several "revisions" in the mercurial 
repository. some quick searches seem to suggest that it's 
windows-specific stuff that breaks compilation on linux...

second, it is increasingly difficult to communicate with projects of the 
panotools group. the yahoo hosted users mailing list - i could not 
subscribe to it. yeah, i probably should complain to yahoo... but that's 
a bit too much to bother.

page at http://panotools.sourceforge.net/ proudly has "Bugs" link at the 
top - which only returns error 500. sourceforge says that's because the 
bug tracker, linked from there, has been disabled - so i was unable to 
report the bug at all.

i like hugin&friends alot, but from an outside perspective, something's 
not really perfect with some aspects of communication ;)

You need to give us the error message or we can't help you.

Thanks fixed, the tracker recently moved to launchpad: 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/panotools

That might be so for the PhotoshopPSB branch which I have been adding to from 
Windows environment.
If you have specific errors I can try to solve them, but patches would be more 
welcome.  I have an idea of some of them from an earlier message.  I'll try and 
tackle some of them shortly.  But it will take a Linux person to verify.

But you probably are better off working on the libpano branch (but would still 
like an error report). Do the following.

hg branch

and if you are not in libpano then:

hg update -C libpano

and try again

Re: broken libpano13 compilation, and communication issues

I agree, the way that mercurial does not default to a HEAD branch is
probably one of the problems.

Having said that, I have been trying to fix Jim changes to make sure
they compile under LInux.

I suspect that the problem with libpano is its dependnecy on hugin
build system, but that is just a hypothesis.
Without a proper report we can't know for sure (we need the output of make).

I don't see traces of your mail address in the logs of the PanoToolsNG 
yahoo group (which is independent of this mailing list btw). So no idea 
what's been causing trouble for you. I'll send you an invitation to join 
so please look for a message from "PanoToolsNG moderator" with the 
subject "Invitation to join the PanoToolsNG group".

What's perfect after all? If I was in a software paradise I'd probably 
take my Apple and leave... ;-)

Rich,

I think we have fixed your compilation problem. You should try again.
