Hi! This is the friendly automated conda-forge-linting service.

I just wanted to let you know that I linted all conda-recipes in your PR (recipes/tigervnc) and found it was in an excellent condition.

[manics]

Still todo:

• Fix tests (--help runs but returns exit code 1)
• Add Xvnc and libvnc.so: https://github.com/TigerVNC/tigervnc/blob/v1.12.0/BUILDING.txt#L100-L146

[manics]

This fails when trying to build Xvnc:

I can't see a way forward from here.

Requested 'randrproto >= 1.6.0' but version of RandrProto is 1.5.0

Need to bump up the version at https://github.com/conda-forge/xorg-randrproto-feedstock/blob/0af6e0d5af5e9dc3bf71bb59d5e782479dbc0032/recipe/meta.yaml#L4 from 1.5.0 to 1.6.0?

No package 'xkbfile' found
No package 'xfont2' found

Not sure about these, don't see them on conda-forge yet.

It looks like randrproto isn't pulling from a standard source repo, which is probably why it's not been automatically updated:

Was gonna manually bump randrproto from 1.5.0 to 1.6.0, but I couldn't find it in https://www.x.org/releases/individual/proto or https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/proto/randrproto, the latest tagged version seems to be 1.5.0?!! No idea where tigervnc is pulling this from 😅

Edit: Ah, I see at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/proto/randrproto/-/commit/72f0d2a21ba47b25fd773be3ace135aed5c6678f that randrproto has been deprecated in favour of xorgproto, see https://github.com/freedesktop/xorg-xorgproto. The feedstock is at https://github.com/conda-forge/xorg-xorgproto-feedstock

Remove pinning to bring in xorg-xorgproto 2022.2? Update was made in conda-forge/xorg-xorgproto-feedstock#3

Suggested change

	- xorg-xorgproto <2022.1
	- xorg-xorgproto

[weiji14]

Suggested change

	- xorg-xorgproto <2022.1
	- xorg-xorgproto

[weiji14]

Try building tigervnc=1.13.1?

Suggested change

	{% set version = "1.12.0" %}
	{% set version = "1.13.1" %}

[weiji14]

Seems like xorg-xserver has moved from GitHub to GitLab at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver? The GitHub link doesn't work anymore

Hi friend!

We really, really, really appreciate that you have taken the time to make a PR on conda-forge/staged-recipes! conda-forge only exists because people like you donate their time to build and maintain conda recipes for use by the community.

In an effort to maintain this repository and increase the signal-to-noise for open PRs, the maintainers of staged-recipes close excessively old PRs after six months. This PR will remain open for another month, and then will be closed.

If you'd like to keep it open, please comment/push and we will be happy to oblige! Note that very old PRs will likely need to be rebased on main so that they can be rebuilt with the most recent CI scripts. If you have any trouble, or we missed reviewing this PR in the first place (sorry!), feel free to ping the team using a special command in a comment on the PR to get the attention of the staged-recipes team.

Cheers and thank you for contributing to this community effort!

Hi again! About a month ago, we commented on this PR saying it would be closed in another month if it was still inactive. It has been a month and so now it is being closed. Thank you so much for making it in the first place and contributing to the community project that is conda-forge. If you'd like to reopen this PR, please feel free to do so at any time!

Cheers and have a great day!
