Hi,

This is just to get you quick-started. You'll probably want to invest time after to understand the spec file and to be able to make modifications. But having a first success is always a good motivator.

As you have an src.rpm, the 'simplest' quick start would be for you to use this one. You can unpack it with unrpm and then upload the .tar.gz and the .spec to your package on the OBS.

If the spec / src-rpm is generic enough, this will give you a resulting package.

no you don't need trigger you must add %prep section with %setup macro for extract tarball (e.g. before %install section):

Thanks Dominique What bits do I need to change in the spec file to install the pwdutils package.

Thankyou Glenn

Dominique wrote RPM in plus needs to be instructed to make sure those packages are installed before the scripts run. Put in the preamble PreReq: pwdutils

this should then be enough (not sure if the buildRoot honrs this. Otherwise it will in plus require a BuildRequires: pwdutils).

this would have to go in the so-called preamble. That's the part of the spec file that contains all the BuildRequires. A spec file that already uses useradd would be the one from gdm.

#osc request accept 15094 -bash: /usr/libexec/pk-command-not-found: No such file or directory

Up till now Ive just using the Webclient to do things. Cheers Glenn

...

problem is that you mixed %release tag from spec, with your tarball name and %release tag is managed (incremented) by obs, so you should not use this tag in your package name

I created submitrequest 15094, also with other changes to see diff use : #osc request show --diff 15094 for accept use #osc request accept 15094 if you don't won't accept them use #osc request decline 15094

From the rpmlint report which items are the really easy ones to fix. Can anyone provide any hints on how these should be coded in.

You can find some information about rpmlint warnings on http://en.opensuse.org/Packaging/RpmLint In many cases, reading the rpmlint messages should give you the information you need.

Which are the really important ones to fix ?.

Basically all of them ;-)

ramlog.src: W: %install-no-mkdir-buildroot Your install section removes the buildroot but does not create them afterwards in a secure way, which allows attackers to trivially play tricks with symlinks on you. use mkdir %buildroot (no -p option!) or don't clean the buildroot in %install, because that's anyway already done for you by rpm.

Remove those lines from your spec ## [ "$RPM_BUILD_ROOT" != "/" ] && rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT mkdir -p $RPM_BUILD_ROOT and it should work.

ramlog.src:17: W: hardcoded-packager-tag Jan The Packager tag is hardcoded in your spec file. It should be removed, so as to use rebuilder's own defaults.

Remove this line: Packager: Jan Andrejkovic (Note: Maybe you'll get a new warning about missing packager tag then - ignore it ;-)

ramlog.src:15: W: hardcoded-path-in-buildroot-tag /var/tmp/%{name}-buildroot A path is hardcoded in your Buildroot tag. It should be replaced by %{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-build.

Self-explaining - change the BuildRoot: setting as described.

ramlog.noarch: W: incoherent-subsys /etc/init.d/ramlog $prog The filename of your lock file in /var/lock/subsys/ is incoherent with your actual init script name. For example, if your script name is httpd, you have to use 'httpd' as the filename in your subsys directory. It is also possible that rpmlint gets this wrong, especially if the init script contains nontrivial shell variables and/or assignments. These cases usually manifest themselves when rpmlint reports that the subsys name starts a with '$'; in these cases a warning instead of an error is reported and you should check the script manually.

Basically self-explaining - and might be a false positive. Check that your initscript really uses /var/lock/subsys/ramlog as lock file. If this is the case, this is a false positive.

ramlog.noarch: W: init-script-without-%stop_on_removal-preun /etc/init.d/ramlog The init script should have a %preun script that calls %stop_on_removal.

Self-explaining: Add a new section to your spec: %preun %stop_on_removal

ramlog.noarch: W: missing-dependency-to-cron for cron script /etc/cron.daily/ramlog This package installs a file in /etc/cron.*/ but doesn't require cron to be installed. as cron is not part of the essential packages, your package should explicitely require cron to make sure that your cron job is executed. If it is an optional feature of your package, recommend or suggest cron.

Add "cron" to Requires, Recommends or Suggests - depending on how hard your script depends on the daily cronjob.

ramlog.src: W: no-%build-section The spec file does not contain a %build section. Even if some packages don't directly need it, section markers may be overridden in rpm's configuration to provide additional "under the hood" functionality, such as injection of automatic -debuginfo subpackages. Add the section, even if empty.

Self-explaining - add a %build section.
