[11:30:23] * Dominus is gonna take a look at how glib2 handles the cross compiling with their tools and will try to adapt our stuff :)
[14:10:09] <Dominus> hmm, doesn't seem so difficult. let's see about finishing it tonight
[23:09:17] <Epitrope> what needs to happen for there to be a stable release?
[23:19:49] <Dominus> not sure, probably the altar of discipline fixed a bit. Either fix the rendering order bug there or (preferably *and*) fix the trap of the altar
[23:20:45] <Epitrope> that's #1855 for the y-shape trap?
[23:20:52] <Epitrope> (does exultbot do tickets?)
[23:21:17] <Dominus> yes that's the bug and no exultbot doesn't do tickets
[23:22:20] <Dominus> if that were fixed, I think we could just release :)
[23:22:34] <Dominus> we could release right now but that is an ugly bug :)
[23:23:10] <Epitrope> yeah :)
[23:24:08] <Epitrope> is the fix decided and just awaiting implementation, or is it unclear what the best way to fix it is?
[23:25:18] <Dominus> I think for the rendering bug we need to implement the exception to the rule for that specific case
[23:25:47] <Dominus> as for the trap, that might be more tricky and something that I think Marzo needs to decide upon
[23:30:38] <Epitrope> is there a pattern for rendering exceptions?
[23:30:55] <Epitrope> or, to put it another way, how easy would that bugfix be for a newcomer to the codebase?
[23:36:51] <Dominus> AFAIK there is no exception pattern for that kind of rendering, though there are exceptions for rendering order when loading a chunk
[23:37:06] <Dominus> that could be taken as some kind of blueprint
[23:43:40] <Dominus> wjp, you are probably asleep or you *should* be sleeping :), but can you take a look at http://pastie.org/8543388
[23:44:22] <Dominus> This is a patch to make cross compiling a bit less painful and manageable
[23:44:41] <Dominus> especially when building for the iOS port...
