[Commotion-dev] Commotion Client Development

[Joshua Besneatte]

Hi Paul,

Thanks. This is exactly the project I was planning on starting myself, 
luckily I found you guys and it's already going. The enthusiasm is easy 
on my end, glad to see there are many others with my vision.

I got a decent deb build working for Serval Project's serval-dna 
incorporating a bunch of the scripts from OTI's serval-dna debian 
folder. I can install/uninstall the serval-dna development fork, 
including libs/includes/etc,  however, commotiond doesn't want to 
compile against this version of serval-dna. Compilation of commotiond 
errors out stating that the llseek64 system call is not available. So 
far my only guesses are:

1. I am missing a dependency. (manpages-dev is supposed to provide 
llseek64 but installing said package did not help)

2. commotiond needs to use OTI's version of serval-dna

3. I need to rebuild SP's serval-dna as package class "single" vs "indep"

If anyone could shed some light on this, that would be great.

If I build and install OTI's serval-dna I am able to compile commotiond 
without problem.

As for the commotion-service-manager, does this still require 
luci-commotion? Luci-commotion fails to install on requirement for the 
deprecated serval-crypto.

I have read most of the development docs and road-maps, but of course I 
may have missed something. It seems the goal is to move to using SP's 
serval-dna (for full serval compatibility) vs the OTI fork, is this 
correct? Is OTI's serval-crypto deprecated because crypto is now handled 
by SP's serval-dna?

My nick is shamanon on IRC and I am in the #commotion channel if anyone 
wants to strike up a conversation there.

Thanks!
