The previous version (5.0.26) has been removed from the debian ftp.
As the source URL is now down, our own hydra (not hydra.nixos.org) failed
to build the package.
This problem will occur again in the future since I only updated the URL
without relying on a "more stable" alternative (this merits a specific
discussion).
Also some style cleanup.
Note that defining an empty-string variable *does* change the hash.
I would like to change this behaviour one day
(clean up attrs when compiling the derivation).
From https://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports-dev/2011-July/015263.html:
5) Building with a compiler that doesn't support newer __builtins
If your port uses MacPorts compilers rather than the default compiler,
you may run into trouble with string functions. You'll see errors at
link time about undefined __builtin_* functions. If this happens, you
may want to compile with -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=0 to tell the headers to
use unfortified versions which do not use compiler builtins.
Ditaa is a small command-line utility written in Java, that can convert
diagrams drawn using ascii art ('drawings' that contain characters that
resemble lines like | / - ), into proper bitmap graphics.

(It still needs boost 1.53 for all tests to pass.)
unoconv is a tool that converts between any document format supported by
LibreOffice/OpenOffice.
Example of how to convert an .odt file to .pdf:
unoconv -f pdf some-file.odt
Homepage: http://dag.wieers.com/home-made/unoconv/
Implementation notes:
unoconv must use the same python version as libreoffice (unless it will
not be able to load the pyuno module from libreoffice). And because we
recently switched to libreoffice 4.x, which uses python3, I had to
include unoconv-python3.patch. The patch comes from upstream unoconv.git
repo, so it will be included in the next release.
bup:
- update
- run make test (all tests seem to pass :-)
- add python.modules.readline
- add comment that there is no way to prune old revisions (yet)
BaseX is a very fast and light-weight, yet powerful XML database and
XPath/XQuery processor, including support for the latest W3C Full Text
and Update Recommendations. It supports large XML instances and offers a
highly interactive front-end (basexgui). Apart from two local standalone
modes, BaseX offers a client/server architecture.
Homepage: http://basex.org/
Implementation notes:
- I'm using the pre-built java package (because it's simple)
- I copied the basex.svg icon file from the Ubuntu package because I
couldn't find it anywhere else. It's 9.3 KiB.
