WIP: Move to BinaryProvider build

[IanButterworth]

This is a VERY WIP start, to help figure out what needs to be done

[remi-garcia]

I think docs/build shouldn't be removed

[IanButterworth]

it was removed previously (see below), I just changed the ordering when copying from another .gitignore

[remi-garcia]

Oh, I shouldn't comment when I'm that tired, sorry

[IanButterworth]

thanks for checking! I shouldn't have reordered it tbh :)

Currently failing with:

ERROR: LoadError: LoadError: LibraryProduct(nothing, ["libglib"], :libglib, "Prefix(/Users/ian/Documents/GitHub/Gtk.jl/deps/usr)") is not satisfied, cannot generate deps.jl!

libglib is missing libintl

dlopen("/Users/ian/Documents/GitHub/Gtk.jl/deps/usr/lib/libglib-2.0.0.dylib")

Seems to be fixed. Just leaves:

    LibraryProduct(prefix, ["libgtk"], :gtk),
    LibraryProduct(prefix, ["libgdk"], :gdk),
    LibraryProduct(prefix, ["libgdk_pixbuf"], :gdk_pixbuf),

what is with Cairo and so on?, will that be pulled by Cairo.jl?

[lobingera]

i'll try to integrate this: https://github.com/giordano/Yggdrasil/releases/tag/Cairo-v1.14.12 and use JuliaGraphics/Cairo.jl#229 (needs rebasing on master and somework on Project.toml). The build.jl for BP is not straightforward to understand imho. Then we should have basic testing with this - without pango/text, Next steps would be to ramp-up something similar for libpango. Then i'd assume we need somethinglike X11 testing of cairo (i worked for some time on XCB - cairo integration but ...). And in the meanwhile the binarybuilder regulars will mostlikely have Gtk builder running.

Is there something I can do to help ? I've got a bit of time but I'm not very familiar with BinaryBuilder or the current state of affair with all these libraries. Maybe @giordano can give us some tips too.

[giordano]

If you want to follow the progress, have a look at this issue: JuliaPackaging/Yggdrasil#62. Most of the direct dependencies should be ready, there are a couple still missing, which have a long chain of indirect dependencies

[jonathanBieler]

Looks great, thanks. If you need help with testing or something else, feel free to ping me.
