[opensuse-packaging] Question about 'osc mr'
by Christian Trippe 07 Oct '12

07 Oct '12

Hi, I wanted to provide updates for two different packages (kdebase4-workspace and kdepim4) for 12.2 and followed http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Package_maintenance After having one package ready I wanted to submit this with 'osc mr' from the local working directory of kdebase4-workspace. It turned out that also the kdepim4 package was submitted back, see https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/137316 So is it correct that 'osc mr' always submits all branched packages back? This might be a useful feature to submit, e.g. an update of KDE SC, but I am not sure if this is a good default. And I could not figure out how to submit only one of the branched packages back with 'osc mr' Christian -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] Download BIG data in %post script. What do you think?
by Cristian Morales Vega 05 Oct '12

I got this https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/135388 What do you think? It actually solves a real problem: the model of having a copy of everything in our servers doesn't scale. Specially with big game data. Problems I can think of: - You don't have control over the external servers. Somebody could modify the files there add hack into users machines. - No information about the files is stored in the RPM database. It's impossible to verify the integrity of the installed package. - It just looks bad, ugly and fragile. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner(a)opensuse.org
