Hello, how do I force a specific Lua version as build requirement independently of the used openSUSE version? In Tumbleweed, 13.2, etc. the Lua package contains version 5.2. In Factory the Lua package provides version 5.3. However, the programm I want to package needs version 5.2. Using ------ BuildRequires: lua BuildRequires: lua-devel ------ works for Tumbleweed, 13.2, etc. but not for Factory. In contrast ------ BuildRequires: lua52 BuildRequires: lua52-devel ------ works only with Factory because these package are not available in the other openSUSE versions. I first tried to distinguish between Factory and Tumbleweed but that seems to be impossible. Is that correct? I also tried to query the Lua version but since subshell expansions don't work in OBS for BuildRequires (see https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Specfile_guidelines#OBS_Caveat) I was not successful. My solution is now to use lua52 and lua52-devel as build requirements and to include the repository devel:languages:lua to Tumbleweed, 13.2, etc. to have packages with that name. This seems to work (see https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:greenbasilisk:branches:graphics...) but I don't know if that is an appropriate solution.

Hi, lua 5.3 arrives in TW 20150723, so you can cat /etc/os-release to distinguish when you have lua-devel = 5.3.1 and lua52-devel and when you have lua-devel = 5.2.4 %define lua53_ready %(cat /etc/os-release | grep XXX | sed 's/XXX/YYY/') %if %{?suse_version} > 1320 %if %{?lua53_ready} >= 20150723 BuildRequires: lua52-devel %else BuildRequires: lua-devel %endif Something like that.

%define lua53_ready %(cat /etc/os-release | grep XXX | sed 's/XXX/YYY/') It seems that /etc/os-release does not exist. I chrooted with osc chroot openSUSE_Tumbleweed x86_64 and didn't find the file.

%if %{?suse_version} > 1320 %if %{?lua53_ready} >= 20150723 BuildRequires: lua52-devel %else BuildRequires: lua-devel %endif I tried something similar: %define luaversion %(lua -e 'print(_VERSION)' | cut -d ' ' -f 2) but the problems seems to be the limited expansion of macros in OBS in case of build requirements. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org

This looks wrong, is that the way to distinguish betwen 13.2 and TW? IMO if a package (or capability) appeared in TW after 13.2 then "if suse_version > 1320" is the way to check for that. Simply because there is no way to go back to a state between now and 13.2.

I think BuildRequires: lua <=5.2 and similar should work You may need to distinguish by Version, e.g.: %if 0%{?suse_version} > 1320 # what happens here? %endif HTH Axel -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org

This was also my first approach. It fails because in Factory the lua package is only available in version 5.3.

Valid reason :-) Did you try to branch lua 5.2 into your project? The build should pick this up then. Probably not the most advanced solution, but should work Isn't that the same/similar as calling osc meta -e prj and adding such lines as <path project="devel:languages:lua" repository="openSUSE_13.2"/> ?

I have also to distinguish between Tumbleweed and Factory. I found no suse_version for them.

I dont know thenm by head either :-) Does echo {?suse_version} or similar work? echo %{?suse_version} works but Tumbleweed and Factory have version 1321.

Hello, I think the problem vanished because now Tumbleweed and Factory are aligned in terms of Lua versions. :) However, doesn't it make sense to add provides: lua53 to the Lua package to avoid this hassle in future?

That happens all the time actually. It's mostly packagers' job to either adapt to the newer dependencies or find a way to use the older ones.

Maybe: Provides: Lua(API) = 5.3 Conflicts: Lua(API) < 5.3 Provides: Lua(devel) = 5.3 Conflicts: Lua(devel) < 5.3 and using update-alternatives to provide /usr/bin/lua might work.

Hi I would think using a BuildRequires on pkconfig(lua) >= 5.2 would be a better option and can remove you conditions or use other permutations of == < etc... -- Cheers Malcolm °¿° LFCS, SUSE Knowledge Partner (Linux Counter #276890) SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 12 GNOME 3.10.1 Kernel 3.12.43-52.6-default up 1:08, 3 users, load average: 0.55, 0.48, 0.45 CPU AMD A4-5150M APU @ 3.3GHz | GPU Richland Radeon HD 8350G -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
