[opensuse-packaging] Fedora packaging Guidelines imported
Hi all, I'd like to announce I have imported Fedora Packaging Guidelines [1] to openSUSE wiki [2]. I excluded following pages: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:FullExceptionList http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:SugarActivityGuidelines http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:GCJGuidelines http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Committee http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:OldJPackagePolicy http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:FontsSpecTemplate Which seemed that they are not important for openSUSE (or are empty in Fedora wiki like FullExceptionList), but I could add them later, if you missed them. I also renamed the page titles, unfortunately only them, so links are wrong. But every page must be reviewed before it should be used, so this is not a big problem. I'll start a work on merging the documentation to the Guidelines (volunteers are welcome :-)). You can just change the content and remove the part which differs from Fedora, but try to keep changes as smallest as possible to allow easy merging of changes between Fedora and SUSE. I'm planning to use a git repository to help track a changes between Fedora and SUSE, but it will be a lot of manual work (I expect).

I hope you have the git repo available. It would be easier for some of
us to assist.
Thanks,

I think that we are supposed to edit the wiki directly. Michal will be periodically importing both wikis (Fedora and openSUSE) into two branches of publically visible git repository to see the differences between the distributions.

I do not need write access. I want to be able to clone it and have a
local copy. I think it should be done similar to the git repo. All
changes/patches should be submitted to this list and be discussed. Some
may take a few revisions before they are acceptable.

We should be able to host the git repo on svn.opensuse.org - Michal, please talk with Duncan about this, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Director Platform / openSUSE, aj@suse.de SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

What about git.opensuse.org? It has most of the git repo's for openSUSE
that I know about.

git.o.o and svn.o.o are AFAIK the same machine, so, if I'm right we're speaking about the same ;) But yes, git.o.o would be the proper location for this, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Director Platform / openSUSE, aj@suse.de SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

I know about opensuse git hosting, but I prefer use a third party hosting (repo.or.cz for example). If we want to make some joint project with Fedora (and maybe other rpm distros), it will be better to be as much distro agnostics as possible.

Then why not use something like github? Stephen

Fine with me - git.o.o was just an offer ;) IMHO use whatever makes you and Fedora happy - as long as it's public ;) Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Director Platform / openSUSE, aj@suse.de SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

Yes, I'm working on this. But without api.php on SUSE wiki I have to yet another script for our wiki, because I cannot use some mediawiki library (as I use for Fedora wiki). And my current script has a bug, because he downloads only a first warning from every page :). I'll improve it and put everything somewhere (including my scripts) asap.

Do I understand you correctly that you want to download the pages in mediawiki format? You might be searching for action=raw, for example http://en.opensuse.org/index.php?title=whatever&action=raw Regards, Christian Boltz --

Thanks. I didn't know that this is possible. I know only about api.php [1], which is not available on opensuse.org, so I used a mechanize + HTML parser for it. Regards Michal Vyskocil

I prepared special Status page with links to all Fedora and openSUSE subpages together with their adaptation progress [1]. I have also changed the font color of the sections, which need to be reviewed, to red. I hope that will get us a better overview about what is done and especially what needs to be done.
