[opensuse-buildservice] RFC: repoview data on mirrors
by Dr. Peter Poeml 25 Sep '07

25 Sep '07

Hi, as you probably know, we have HTML files generated by repoview, located in the repodata directories. When mirror servers mirror the buildservice repositories, they are mirroring the repoview data at the same time. Do you think this is useful? I think those files should be excluded from the rsync module, in order to save bandwidth and decrease the time needed to mirror the repositories. The added space requirement is insignificant, but the number of files being mirrored is roughly multiplied by a factor of 2, which increases the rsync load on our server and slows things down. Our mirror scanner is also being slowed down by this. Given that the HTML files - are a workaround because we don't have a better way of repository viewing yet, - are not seriously used, at least I'm not aware of, and - can be viewed on download.opensuse.org anyway, I suggest that we exclude them from the rsync module, so they are not mirrored anymore.

[opensuse-buildservice] Odd value for 'uname -p' in build service?
by Andrew Beekhof 25 Sep '07

25 Sep '07

In a recent build of: http://build.opensuse.org/package/live_build_log? arch=i586&project=server%3Aha- clustering&repository=Mandriva_2006&package=openais 'uname -p' expanded into "Dual-Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 8214" and broke the makefile (due to various quoting issues) Is such a value to be expected? Should I perhaps be using 'uname -i' instead if I'm looking for i386/ x86_64/... ? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-buildservice] Package Flags
by Christian 24 Sep '07

24 Sep '07

Hallo, wenn ich über das webinterface auf den BuildService gehe, und ein "package" auswähle, dann sehe ich nur zwei Repos für "Package Flags" (All Rep. und SLE_10 ), obwohl das package für SuSE10.0, openSuSE 10.2 und SLE_10 gebaut wird. woran liegt das ? mein repo: http://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=home%3Acomputersalat Vielen Dank für Eure Hilfe. P.S. ist es sinnig, dass "noarch" packages für beide Arch's gebaut werden ? Das nimmt doch nur unnötigen Platz weg.

You can build it only for one architecture, if no other package use this noarch package in it's BuildRequires: bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) email: adrian(a)suse.de --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-buildservice] ymp patterns - Adding more repositores
by CyberOrg 24 Sep '07

24 Sep '07

Hello all How do I add more repositores to the pattern (ymp) generated by OBS. I tried this, which did not work: http://pastebin.ca/706901 Removing <repositories>entire section</repositories> works. But it adds only the base repositories.

[opensuse-buildservice] openSUSE:Tools/obs-server too old, please update (to version on build.opensuse.org)
by Martin Mohring 21 Sep '07

21 Sep '07

Hello, i have now successfully installed an own instance of the openSUSE:Buildservice locally. Got it working and also imported some of the opensuse.org Projects to get some testing. What I noticed was that: - The OBS Version in openSUSE:Tools is quite old - Major features are not implemented, so I cannot build some of the packages currently building on build.opensuse.org - The OBS Version is not in sync with the features of osc in openSUSE:Tools, featurewise. Can you please provide version information (what Subversion Tag/Release) about the newest release working or provide a new version in openSUSE:Tools, please?

[opensuse-buildservice] Redirector availability
by Benji Weber 21 Sep '07

21 Sep '07

Greetings all, So the redirector has gone down /again/ this weekend. And of course we get all the users coming asking why their package management isn't working while there are no suse people around to fix it. Having a high availability redirector is probably the single most important thing the project needs right now. It goes down far too often, and with our current strategy of adding repositories from the community repositories module, installation, and YMPs using the redirector this means that *every openSUSE user* is without package management on a regular basis. This inconveniences people and damages the reputation of the distribution amongst users. it also means that users cannot download the distribution at all as there is no static fallback for download.opensuse.org. The fact that it always goes down at weekends is a problem too, as most people have jobs this is when "hobbyist" people are likely to be wanting to try things out etc. Given how much adding repositories is automated in 10.3 we can no longer rely on users distributing themselves amongst mirrors. Therefore I think we either need to: - Have a co-hosted redirector, with monitoring to ensure uptime in place for 10.3 or very soon after. or - Have the build service YMP & installation/community repositories suggestions use alternating mirrors instead of the redirector. Whilst this would be suboptimal as we would lose tracking of statistics etc it would be better than the situation currently where everyone loses package management regularly. _ Benjamin Weber --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-buildservice] proposal for new repositories: multimedia:codec and multimedia/GNOME:GStreamer010
by Stanislav Brabec 20 Sep '07

20 Sep '07

Hallo. I would like to propose two new repositories: multimedia:codec for libraries and similar infrastructure for multimedia formats. Examples of packages: libogg, libvorbis, libdvdnav, libdvdread, libsidplay, wavpack,... multimedia:gstreamer010 or GNOME:GSTREAMER010 or so (exact case and name is not sure): Move gstreamer packages from GNOME:*STABLE here. This project will be build against multimedia:codec repository to have the latest codecs. -- Best Regards / S pozdravem, Stanislav Brabec software developer --------------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX, s. r. o. e-mail: sbrabec(a)suse.cz Lihovarská 1060/12 tel: +420 284 028 966 190 00 Praha 9 fax: +420 284 028 951 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org
