[opensuse-buildservice] Add external source to a package?
by Carsten Ziepke 12 Sep '23

12 Sep '23

Hello, I want to update the package ja2-stracciatella in the games repository to version 0.17.0. https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:Kieltux:branches:games/ja2-str… The new version needs the library string_theory which is not available for openSUSE. The build process wants to download string_theory from github, because it is not found. [ 36s] Scanning dependencies of target string_theory [ 36s] [ 12%] Creating directories for 'string_theory' [ 37s] [ 25%] Performing download step (download, verify and extract) for 'string_theory' [ 37s] -- Downloading... [ 37s] dst='/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/ja2-stracciatella-0.17.0/build/dependencies/lib-string_theory/builder/string_theory-prefix/src/3.1.tar.gz' [ 37s] timeout='none' [ 37s] -- Using src='https://github.com/zrax/string_theory/archive/3.1.tar.gz' [ 37s] -- Retrying... Can I add string_theory (string_theory-3.1.tar.gz) manually to the package and patch the build process? Thank you, Carsten -- Well, since MS cant be sure of the username of someone downloading things, they are going to play it safe and have everything dowloaded and executed by Explorer as suid root. That way, it will run on ANY system anywhere. :) -- George Bonser <grep(a)cris.com>

Implementing a new APT publisher
by Arnaud Ferraris 30 Mar '22

30 Mar '22

Hi, We currently use OBS for building and publishing APT packages for the Apertis project[1] (a Debian derivative distribution). At the moment we use downstream patches for the publisher (src/backend/bs_publish) in order to use reprepro instead of dpkg-scanpackages/dpkg-scansources. As we're considering implementing a new APT publisher based on aptly[2], we'd like to do so in a way that can be upstreamed to OBS so it can benefit the whole community. This obviously raises several questions as to how we should proceed, so I'm sending this email as a call for advice/comments/suggestions. We're considering the following: - this new publisher would be implemented in addition to the existing dpkg-scan* based one and be selectable through global configuration options. - using aptly opens up possibilities, but it isn't always as straightforward as a few system() call; we would therefore need to either ship a helper tool or add a new BSPublisher submodule (the latter is the preferred option atm) - aptly can also be used through a REST API, which implies some asynchronous processing would be preferrable. Is there currently a way to handle async processing in OBS, or would that require another helper tool/module, if possible at all? We're only at the planning and design stage for now, so we would be very interested in your opinion and comments regarding the above. Thanks, Arnaud [1] https://apertis.org [2] https://aptly.info

package build stuck on blocked (AlmaLinux 8)
by Neal Gompa 23 Dec '21

23 Dec '21

Hey, I'm trying to build a package with AlmaLinux 8 and it seems to be stuck waiting to download 12 packages. See here: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:Pharaoh_Atem:alma-nginx-module… It seems weird that it's stuck like that for so long on that... Can someone look and see what's going wrong? Thanks in advance, Neal -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth!

Different kernels for different worker VMs?
by Kai Liu 06 Nov '21

06 Nov '21

Hi, While looking at boo, I noticed that the kernel and initrd of the VM workers are different for different jobs. For example, for SLES, qemu uses the kernel and initrd under /var/cache/obs/worker/root_*/.mount/boot/kernel. But for CentOS, it uses kernel under /boot. It looks like the SLES worker even runs the exact kernel version of the target OS. Could some one let me know how can I set my instance to run in such way? Thanks, Kai

Fedora 35?
by Wong Hoi Sing Edison 03 Nov '21

03 Nov '21

Could we enable https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/Fedora:35? Fedora 35 is currently in beta, and going to release on or before 2021-10-26: https://fedorapeople.org/groups/schedule/f-35/f-35-key-tasks.html I had give a try for my https://build.opensuse.org/projects/home:alvistack/meta, but most likely failed: - If using Fedora:34 as fake repo backend, Fedora 35 already upgrade to python 3.10 (where Fedora 34 still coming with python 3.9), so the result packages not installable - If using Fedora:Rawhide as fake repo backend, Fedora Rawhide already upgrade to openssl 3.0 (where Fedora 35 still coming with openssl 1.1), so the result packages again not installable... I could only find a valid solution for Fedora 35 beta by building package directly with a valid https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/Fedora:35... May we have https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/Fedora:35 activated for now?

osc error 401
by Felix Miata 27 Oct '21

27 Oct '21

# osc maintainer sddm Server returned an error: HTTP Error 401: Unauthorized What must I do to get the desired result? I set an account up many years ago, rarely use it. I tried first osc maintainer inxi, because I thought I might like to try becoming a maintainer for this simple purpose of making a non-antique inxi available to Leap users. Its maintainer doesn't seem interested in non-broken inxi except for TW users, making forum support seriously annoying to provide to Leap users. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.

HTTP Authentication issue
by Nicolas Formichella 27 Oct '21

27 Oct '21

Hello, I'm encountering an issue regarding access through `curl` and python's `requests` against `build.opensuse.org` Using `osc` when running ``` osc api /source ``` work with no trouble and lists the projects. But I didn't got that to work outside of `osc` Whatever I do regarding basic auth headers (build it myself, let curl/requests do it), I get a error 401 with : ``` <status code="anonymous_user"> <summary>Anonymous user is not allowed here - please login</summary> </status> ``` Full connection log : [1] Password is known good as it works in `osc` (fails even if I try to get it from GNOME-keyring through `python-keyring`) What could be my issue?

OBS 2.10.x updates for Ubuntu 21.10
by Adrian Schröter 26 Oct '21

26 Oct '21

Hi, We released a number of updates for OBS 2.10 to support latest Ubuntu 21.10. It is using zstd for control file compression which required a number of changes. obs packages itself are not affected, but you will need to update build perl-BSSolv dpkg as provided by the OBS repository to be able to build for current Ubuntu. (Debian itself is not affected and even does not support zstd compressed control files either yet). There will also be a new osc release soon to support local builds as well. bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter <adrian(a)suse.de> Build Infrastructure Project Manager SUSE Software Solutions Germany GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany (HRB 247165, AG München), Geschäftsführer: Felix Imendörffer
