tfortune/Makefile, branch master

Prefer https protocol.

2024-04-28T14:08:20Z

The http link in one of the epigrams has become stale, and switching to https does not work either, so remove this link. Thanks to Johannes Wörner for setting up https on the git server. Reviewed-by: Andreas Metzler

Add a few sample epigrams and the fortunes package.

2019-06-25T12:49:48Z

This adds a single file containing ~200 tagged epigrams in English language. The debian/control file is extended to provide the new "tfortunes" package which ships this data file. The new package is Recommended: by the tfortune package but tfortune works without it if epigrams are provided locally. The debian/copyright file also needs to be adjusted because the epigrams are under the public domain while the source code remains GPLv3. The epigrams were created by running tfortune -- print -atx pub on the author's epigram database with "pub" being a tag expression that filters out epigrams not suitable for public exposure. Suggested-by: Adam Borowski v2 -> v3 ~~~~~~~~ Apply fixes provided by Adam Borowski: * Fix bogus date in debian/changelog (s/Mon/Tue) * Make the data package Arch:all, since it is truly arch-independent * Add Multi-Arch header to debian/control v1 -> v2 ~~~~~~~~ Incorporate feedback from Adam Borowski: * Fix typo in description of the tfortunes package * Update debian/changelog and increase debian version number

Fall back to system-wide epigram directory.

If the per-user directory can not be opened, we currently print an error message and exit. As pointed out by Adam Borowski, this is not especially user-friendly. This commit teaches tfortune to look in a second, system-wide location in this case. This location can be controlled with the --datadir option of configure. The man page is updated accordingly.

Makefile: Avoid warning when config.mak is not present.

2019-06-04T14:25:45Z

Without the leading dash, make(1) complains if, for example, make config.mak is run on a pristine tree. The dash instructs make(1) to not emit a warning if the file to include does not exist or cannot be remade.

Run gzip with -n.

It is generally a good idea to not save the local file name and timestamp in the compressed file, as this thwarts reproducible builds. Suggested-by: Adam Borowski

New make targets: exe, build-arch, man and build-indep.

2019-05-24T06:33:09Z

It's good practice to provide separate make targets for generating arch-dependent files (e.g., executables) and for arch-independent files (e.g., manual pages). Currently there is only one file of either type which gets installed by the make target, but this might change.

make distclean: Remove also configure.sh.

2019-05-24T06:32:00Z

All derived files should be removed by the distclean target.

Install man pages in compressed form.

2019-05-24T06:32:00Z

This is generally a good idea since all versions of man(1) support at least gzip-compressed manual pages.

Install man page in section 6.

2019-05-24T06:30:59Z

The manual page of the standard fortune program is part of section 6 (Games Manuals), so the tfortune man page should be installed there as well rather than in section 1.

Avoid duplication in version, README, man page.

URLs and the email address are currently spread out over multiple files. This commit cleans up the mess by defining everything in Makefile and adjusting other places to use the information from there. We use the opportunity to add a link to the author's home page. version-gen.sh is made generic, i.e., it does not refer to tfortune any more.
