[Bug 337404] New: BuildService is lacking sanity checks
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=337404 Summary: BuildService is lacking sanity checks Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jengelh@gmx.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Beta-Customer Take for example /repositories/network:/telephony/openSUSE_Factory/*/iaxmodem*.rpm The problem is that there is no way to find out who created these packages (which do have a lot of bugs). I wrote to the people listed in the Packager: and Vendor: tags, but neither of them said they were responsible for the SUSE RPM package. This is really bad! (1) The OBS should *NOT* allow Vendor: or Packager: tags to be set from specfiles, only from ~/.rpmmacros or whatever OBS uses. (2) And it should *force* the users OBS name/email into the package, because I can imagine that no one at Novell is reponsible for that package either.

I second your request, but two things should be kept in mind: - a package may have more than one maintainer in OBS. Which one should be put in the packager field? Or all of them? - please don't include the mail address in the RPM - except if you want to test if the packager's spamfilter works ;-) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

a package may have more than one maintainer in OBS. Which one[...]
The one who pushed the [Submit] button for that particular release.
please don't include the mail address in the RPM
Then put in the URL of the OBS project, where one can find more info on how to reach the appropriate person. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Only the login name of the user pressing the [Submit] button is transferred to the backend for now but it would be easy to transmit the email address as well. I don't think it would be a good idea to include the packager's email address though due to the concerns mentioned in #1. A possible solution would be a link to the user page (either build.opensuse.org or users.opensuse.org), although this would require some work on those pages. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

This is really bad! (1) The OBS should *NOT* allow Vendor: or Packager: tags to be set from specfiles, only from ~/.rpmmacros or whatever OBS uses.
Right, unfortunately now the OBS does warn if packages DO NOT contain Packager: tag scponly.src: W: no-packager-tag There is no Packager tag in your package. You have to specify a packager using the Packager tag. Ex: Packager: John Doo <john.doo@example.com>. which is wrong.. should be backwards, and bail-out.

All the necessary contact information is already available on the packages site within OBS. E.g. for /repositories/network:/telephony/openSUSE_Factory/*/iaxmodem*.rpm it would be: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=iaxmodem&project=network%3Atelephony However, to address the OPs problem, said URL could / should be included in the rpms metadata. If there's no additional field available e.g. the "Vendor:" one (which currently only says "openSUSE Build Service") could be automatically replaced by the package's site within OBS. This way everyone should be able to retrieve valid contact information as long as one can be bothered to get an OBS account (which is acceptable IMHO).
