[00:25] <Saviq> legacy, I suppose
[02:52] <Son_Goku> xnox: because no one else does that
[02:53] <Son_Goku> the rest of us ship the libraries
[02:53] <Son_Goku> xnox: who says that Debian/Ubuntu are the center of the Linux universe
[02:54]  * Son_Goku finds this offensive given how much crap it's taken to make Mir work on Fedora
[02:54] <Son_Goku> things still don't quite work... :/
[04:46] <RAOF> There is no best practice for GMock 😠
[11:14] <xnox> Son_Goku, as far as I can see googletest is the new source name, after gmock and gtest have merged; unless it's only debian that followed upstream rename.
[11:14] <xnox> Son_Goku, independent gtest & gmock no more.
[11:15] <xnox> Son_Goku, are you saying others stuck shipping the split out libraries only, and did not move onto the googletest?
[11:15] <Son_Goku> CMake itself distinguishes between the two
[11:15] <Son_Goku> the source package for us is gtest, but it produces gmock and gtest libraries
[11:15] <Son_Goku> not everyone uses both
[11:16] <xnox> Son_Goku, but I see projects trying to import both and that doesn't work, as gmock builds gtest too. Importing both results in a duplicate library/target in cmake.
[11:16] <Son_Goku> if they import both as SOURCE, yes
[11:16] <xnox> (gmock building gtest, is new to googletest based sources)
[11:16] <Son_Goku> yes, I know
[11:16] <Son_Goku> but if the library is already built and you're linking to it, it won't
[11:16] <xnox> but that stopped being supported....
[11:17] <xnox> in debian/ubuntu we ship the gmock/gtest sources, but not pre-building the libs =/ as per upstream recommends.....
[11:17] <Son_Goku> they changed their recommendation
[11:17] <Son_Goku> which is why CMake supports locating the library
[11:17] <xnox> ok, then i am out of date again =/
[11:17] <Son_Goku> yeah, it sucks
[11:17] <Son_Goku> Google is fluid like that
[11:18] <Son_Goku> in Fedora, we currently have gtest as a lib, and gmock as source
[11:18] <Son_Goku> which was Google's previous recommendation
[11:18] <Son_Goku> but now it's okay to have the whole thing as libs
[11:18] <Son_Goku> it's nuts
[23:06] <RAOF> Ah! I was wondering why I couldn't find gmock as a library in Fedora!
