[opensuse-buildservice] Installing OBS on Debian
Hi all, I have want to have a play with OBS as I am involved in a lot of internal linux packaging at my work. I primarily deal with Debian and Ubuntu, but the packages are also built for Redhat, Fedora and SuSE and I though that we could probably do well to have one unified build system. As my spare boxes for playing with OBS are Debian I am hoping to get it running on Lenny. I couldn't find any prebuilt debs so I assume I need to go from source. I grabbed the source tree from svn, but it seems to lack some complete docs on how exactly you are supposed to compile, install and configure the whole thing from start to finish... Has anyone here installed OBS on Debian or on a distribution that doesn't have rpms already available? There are lots of folders in the src tree and I am not sure which ones I need to do what in nor what the dependencies for the whole lot is.

I'd also like to have that stuff working on debian, but unfortunately, I have not many time to do that. :-( I did already an obs-worker package for debian, though: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=obs-worker&project=home%3Achoeger If you want to have a starting point on how to install the software, you might want to have a look at the rpm spec files, where in the %build and %install sections every thing that must be done to install the software can be found, as well as the requirements in the header section. Hope that helps. https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file?file=obs-server.spec&package=obs-server&project=openSUSE%3ATools -- With best regards, Carsten Hoeger

I know people running it on Debian based on svn installations already. But so far no one provided debian packages for it.

Do you have checked this wiki page already?: http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/Build_Service_Installation_Tutorial There are only manuals for rpm based distros until now, but it should give you enough hints. And maybe you can write a wiki page for your system :) bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH email: adrian@suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
