Hi Ralph,

 

Yes, I am aware the new repository https://epicsdeb.bnl.gov/debian/ . The old repository https://epics.nsls2.bnl.gov/debian/ in my previous email actually has a highlighted message at the top “This repository is Legacy. Current repository can be found here.” pointing to the new one.

 

The new repository supports newer version of Debian: Jessie, Stretch, Buster. Unfortunately my IOC server is an old system with Debian 7 (Wheezy). For Debian 7, Michael put Asyn, StreamDevice, and many other modules inside a big package “epics-synapps-dev”.

 

$ dpkg -S /usr/lib/epics/lib/linux-x86/libasyn.a

epics-synapps-dev: /usr/lib/epics/lib/linux-x86/libasyn.a

Hi Yong,

PS: I had difficulty finding the exact version number of asyn/streamdevice since I built my IOC against Michael Davidsaver’s Debian packages (https://epics.nsls2.bnl.gov/debian/ ) and the packages provide everything under /usr/lib/epics/. I am sure there are many ways (ldd, strings, configure/RELEASE, etc.) to find out the version number of EPICS support module. I just found “dbior” seems a handy tool for reporting EPICS driver’s version. I am not sure if Mark Rivers has added this kind of report in his latest Asyn release.

 

You are aware that the repository has moved to https://epicsdeb.bnl.gov/debian/ a few years ago, right? This great work is done by your colleagues, so you should be. The old server has been left untouched, so waiting for updates there won't help much, I guess.

 

Also, the Debian packages of course all have version numbers.

ralph@debian-testing:~$ apt list epics-asyn*

Listing... Done

epics-asyn-dev/unknown,unknown 4.36-1.1+deb10u1 amd64

Advantage: you don't need an IOC to find out.

 

Good luck!

~Ralph
