I'm one of the developers of the open-sTeam collaboration server software (http://www.open-steam.org), which is written in the pike programming language (http://pike.ida.liu.se). In the long run, I would like to use the build service to produce and publish RPM packages of our software, but since there are currently no pike rpm packages about, I tried to build my own.
Do you use/do the Roxen or Caudium Web Server? I build locally for them. I think it would be good to get at least Caudium going. What version of pike have you done?
I haven't checked Roxen or Caudium... Our open-sTeam server has its own http/https server for its webinterface, although we also have a php api for building frontends with apache2 and php5. I've currently added the 7.6.86 stable release of pike. I'm aware that there is a newer 7.6.112 stable release, but we experienced thorough problems (apparently threading problems) with our open-sTeam software when running with pike 7.6.112. I have, however, backported a patch for some http-request bug in pike that was fixed later in CVS, since that was also a feature we needed for our server. I sincerely hope that we can figure out the problem with 7.6.112, since otherwise we would be stuck at 7.6.86 (and there are a lot of ldap and ssl fixes in 7.6.112 and in cvs which we would love to have ;-) ). I hope I'll find the time in the near future to tackle that problem. Right now I'm a bit busy with one of our php frontends and in creating packages of our open-sTeam software. Since I already cleaned up our init.d scripts to conform to lsb, I hope it won't take too much time to be able to offer open-sTeam on the suse build service, too ;-)
I succeeded (with help by the people on the build service IRC - thanks again!) in creating a project in my build service home and have successfully created packages for openSUSE 10.2, 10.3, SLES 10, Fedora Core 8 and RHEL 5 with it (only for i586, the 64-bit version doesn't seem to compile, though at the moment I think I don't need the 64- bit packages anyway ;-) ).
I think we should get the 64 bit working. I just got a 64 bit machine. I am currently as time permits debuging this for the latest released version of pike. I have been submitting my changes to the core project? I maybe able to assist you. I am a bit swamped at the moment.
Well, I haven't thoroughly checked the 64-bit build log, since i currently only needed the i586 version anyway and was just curious if the 64-bit would also compile. At first glance it actually seemed to be a crash in the autodoc process trying to build the documentation, so maybe it works without documentation... It's a bit difficult for me to test since I currently have no access to a native 64-bit linux box and scheduling for online builds takes a while to finish. If you are interested, you are most welcome to take a look at it, of course. Can't hurt to have 64-bit packages of pike, too ;-) Best regards, Robert --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
