I can only think of a hacky way to (ab)use the rebuild bot: Add a fake "-rebuildme" subpackage to kernel-default-base.spec which has %(rpm -q --qf 'Requires: %{name} = %{version}-%{release}\n' kernel-default).
As the subpackage turns uninstallable once kernel-default changed, it would be rebuilt.
@dimstar, @lnussel: Any better idea?
Yucks - let alone this can't work (ignoring the non-escaped %{version} for now):
The release counter is not under control on kernel-default-base: it is - and will remain for a while, at 1.x, until it gets direct source changes, when it turns into 2.x - and actually, weirdly, now it is 1.2.1.6... WTH)
The kernel version from git is part of the Release: field in the .spec.
So having a requires on a kernel version-release would only make it rebuild forever in an attempt to reach the checking/rebuild counter of kernel-default
It wouldn't - kernel-default-base.spec is separate from kernel-default.spec
If anything, we'd need to add it to the parent/child rebuild trigger, as in: https://github.com/openSUSE/openSUSE-release-tools/blob/master/rebuildpacs. pl#L77
Yes, that's cleaner.
But that is also 'just' a workaround - OBS itself has no support for this (except switching to rebuild=direct|transitive, which is too expensive for TW)

I must be missing something.
kernel-default-base now BuildRequires kernel-default-devel. Since this binary package is built from kernel-default, it must change whenever kernel-default is rebuilt, triggering a rebuild of kernel-default-base (because of meta change).
Why does it not happen for kernel-default-base?
TW does not have rebuild=transient/direct enabled, this is intentional.
(In reply to Ludwig Nussel from comment #12) well, if we wanted to rely on rebuildpacs.pl that can be done in a more easy way, it has a list of special packages built in. so just add yet another one :)
As long as kernel-default-base has bcntsynctag on kernel-source it should be rebuilt automatically with rebuild counter sync by OBS though.
That might work as well, but would require special configuration everywhere... The current design of a split kernel-default-base.spec has multiple issues: - Needs to be handled separately for maintenance submissions - Is missing debuginfo and debugsources - This rebuild issue -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
