wxWindows directories merge on Snake

From

Dear friends,

To avoid confusion, I did the following changes on Snake:

1) I moved my stuff into a http://snake.pgadmin.org/jean-michel directory.
Do not use the RPMs in this directory, they are mostly ***not compatible***
with pgAdmin3. Actually, these RPMs do not even compile!

2) http://snake.pgadmin.org/wxwindows now lists all wxWindows-pgAdmin3-*
tarballs and patches with comments.

3) As a result, I removed the empty
http://snake.pgadmin.org/snapshots/wxWindows

If there is a better solution, do not hesitate to apply it.

Best regards,
Jean-Michel

I'm even more confused now.

/snapshots/wxwindows should contain the version and previous versions of wxWindows that the development team are
workingwith (and building the snapshots against). 

/ftp/wxwindows should contain *only* the version of wxWindows that we release versions of pgAdmin against. The ftp
directoryis mirrored and definitely *should not* have arbitrary versions of wx under it. Please remove all except
20030831.

So why are they on Snake? If they're not for use with pgAdmin or don't compile, please delete them. There's 160Mb of
spacewasted there. If you are using that area as a working directory, please use your home directory.

I deleted the new RPMs.

Because I need some place to upload the packages. If the name "jean-michel" is
confusing, I will set up a web server somewhere else. But this would be sad.
I upload the build logs to show the wx guys their RPMs don't work. Otherwize,
they wron't admit it.

Cheers,
Jean-Michel

I don't mind you using it for that, but 160Mb of logs seems excessive to convince people that there's a problem. What
elseis in there? Are you only uploading logs when things actually go wrong?

I deleted previous builds and will upload only daily builds from now in
http://snake.pgadmin.org/jean-michel. Warning: do not use the RPMs from this
directory.

wxWindows packaging scheme is extremely complicated. There are several ports
(base, gtk, gtk2, x11, etc...) and two sets of RPMs for each port (unicode,
non-unicode):

wx-base, wx-base-unicode
wx-gtk
wx-gtk2, wx-gtk2-unicode
wx-x11, wx-x11-unicode

Each set has 3 to 6 RPMs. There are 3 distros (RH, MKK, SUSE). This makes a
lot of RPMs...
