[opensuse-buildservice] 500 Internal Server Error always when enabling an account
by Truth 10 Jan '07

10 Jan '07

Hi, all. I'd like to join the build service as a packager. However, I've encountered some server errors when enabling my account after login. It is the submit button on page http://build.opensuse.org/user/request_ichainthat always takes me to a 500 Internal Server Error page. Tried several times from 8.am to 10 pm with no success. I wonder if someone knows when the server will be ok? or any advice? Thanks in advance.

Just released version 0.3.8 of the QT client for the buildservice, if anyone could take a look and give me feedback it would be greatly appreciated. It sure ain't as fully featured as OSC but is starting to take shape and currently allow you to browse around the BS.

[opensuse-buildservice] preliminary osc patch to add "createpacfromsrcrpm" cmd
by Gernot Hillier 09 Jan '07

09 Jan '07

Hi! (I'm not sure if this is on-topic for the buildservice list, sorry if not!) As I needed a quick way to create packages from Source RPMs, I thought about controlling osc from a shell script first. But then, I found the TODO entry - and here's my first version of a patch to osc. :-)) The patch should cleanly apply to the current SVN head of osc. However, it's definitely not perfect yet - especially I'm not sure about how to get the unpackaged package transferred to the server nicely. Perhaps it would be more wise to use the Package class in a clever way? Also, the way how I prepare the meta_data template is ugly for sure. Sorry for that, but my Python got a bit rusted - perhaps someone could suggest a better way here? :-) In general, I'd welcome any feedback - is this stuff usable at all or should it be done completely different? Thanks in advance! -- Bye, Gernot

Hi! Attached, please find an updated version of my osc createpacfromsrcrpm patch: * added cleanup of /tmp-directory after uploading the RPM contents * use rpm2cpio and cpio in a pipe instead of as two separate commands * use "cpio -v" output instead of listing the directory manually * check if package already exists in buildservice before creating it Thanks to Mauricio Teixeira and James Oakley for the technical feedback and Klaas for the special motivation! :-) -- Ciao, Gernot

[opensuse-buildservice] Building against SLE_10 repo
by Joe Shaw 26 Dec '06

26 Dec '06

Hi, I'm trying to build updated Beagle packages for SLED 10, and the build against the SLE_10 platform is failing for me: buildinfo is borken... it says: expansion error: nothing provides epiphany, nothing provides epiphany-devel, nothing provides evolution-sharp, nothing provides gmime-devel, nothing provides gsf-sharp, nothing provides wv-devel Of these: * I don't think we shipped epiphany on SLED10, although it was available in autobuild and we shipped the plugin anyway. * We definitely shipped evolution-sharp and gsf-sharp on SLED10, as they're runtime deps of Beagle. * gmime-devel and wv-devel probably weren't shipped on the media, but they may have been in the SDK. Even if they're not, they are needed to build Beagle. So my question is: given that I can build this with autobuild, should the expectation that I can build this (or any other software, really) on SLE10? Or should I use the SL 10.1 target instead?

I am trying to compile some packages against the $SUBJECT repository, and there are some missing dependancies.

Would the maintainers of $SUBJECT repository be kind enough to add: tetex, texinfo, tck, tk ?

[opensuse-buildservice] Symbol in new BS webgui (package view)
by Dominique Leuenberger 21 Dec '06

21 Dec '06

Hi, Just a small comment about the new WebGui for the BS: I think the icon next to the text 'Build Status' (the icon looks like a 'refresh'). I expected it more to 'refresh' the view of the build status than to trigger a rebuild (ok: I didn't have to click.. the hover text was clear then). The 'Involved users' is a very nice thing and looks promising for future releases to find all your packages, as spread as they are over the BuildService. How evolved are the ideas of what should be able to find / monitor using the 'involved users' ?

[opensuse-buildservice] Search Interface
by Andreas Bauer 21 Dec '06

21 Dec '06

Hi, api.opensuse.org is now able to search in project and package metadata using a xpath-like syntax. Following GET requests have been added: /search/project?match=<predicate> /search/project/id?match=<predicate> /search/package?match=<predicate> /search/package/id?match=<predicate> Result documents are put into a <container></container> node. The paths ending on /id return only the root node of the wanted metafile type, which speeds up the request a lot. The other paths return the whole documents. The match parameter is mandatory and specifies the predicate used to select the wanted metafiles. Not the whole xpath specification is supported, we only support a subset of operators and functions, and only specific node tests. Allowed node tests for projects: @name description title person/@userid repository/path/@project Allowed node tests for packages: @name @project title description person/@userid Allowed operators: = != and or Allowed functions: not(expr) contains(string,substring) starts-with(string,substring) ends-with(string,substring) Examples: /search/package/id?match=person/@userid='darix' returns the root nodes of all package metafiles where darix is set as maintainer /search/project/id?match=starts-with(@name,'SUSE:') returns the metafiles of all projects below the SUSE: namespace /search/project/id?match=ends-with(@name,person/@userid) returns the root nodes of all project metafiles where the project name ends with the userid of one of the maintainers (that is, all home projects) /search/project?match=[not(starts-with(@name,'home'))%20and%20description=''] all projects not under the 'home:' namespace whose description element is empty More functions/operators/node tests might get implemented if the need for them arises.

[opensuse-buildservice] Software installation
by Klaas Freitag 20 Dec '06

20 Dec '06

Hi, I just read this: http://ianmurdock.com/?p=388 It's a blog about why software installation sucks on Linux. He is right with many of his statements, we all experienced that in the past. Distributions took that job and improved a lot. But still there are problems: For ISVs, for organisations who want to stay distribution independent and for the lots of developers whos work did not yet make it to a distribution. It's very much work to maintain all the building instructions for the various distributions out there in case you just want to code (and unfortunately people like to use your code) and your hobby is not packaging. You hardly have a chance to get many rpms for your project from outside unless it's really prominent. That's another area where the buildservice really can make a difference. Moreover if we in once can think of a more general build description - which could be a meta-description of spec files, we could ease the pain of the people who have to maintain so many different spec files and others for different platforms. Since maintaining lots of stuff is a cost factor for ISVs, I think that would be one additonal argument to port to Linux. True?

[opensuse-buildservice] Improving the SLED : SDK : Extra repository?
by jay migliaccio 12 Dec '06

12 Dec '06

Hello hackers! I am working with EDU customers who are standardizing on SLED - and interested to use some open source applications, on top of SLED. I have started a Education:desktop project - and am working with them to build a repository for SLED of applications that they need. Think of this as an EDU Desktop Apps Addon CD projects. The biggest challenge for us - is that some of the packages we are trying to compile need additional libraries that are not available in SLED, or SLE-SDK. Fortunatly some of you have created SLE:SDK:Extras, but in my case - I need even more libraries than are available in there. (ie: python-sqlite2<http://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=python-sqlite2&project=Educa…> ). Is anyone else hitting that limitation too? Is it better to get the SLE:SDK:Extras repository extended, or to create, yet another repository (ie: SDK:Extras:more)? Suggestions or solutions are welcome. - Jay Migliaccio

Re: [opensuse-buildservice] Difference between GNOME:Community, Stable, and Unstable
by Rakhesh Sasidharan 11 Dec '06

11 Dec '06

Thank you for explaining that. Adding repositories should be made easy, but more than that I'd say there should be some page somewhere explaining what these repositories are. Kind like how Joe explained it. Since these repos could be broken etc, we don't want them to be too easy for in-experienced users to add them and break things; but there definitely should be some write up somewhere on what this is all abt. As of now all that there is is that there's the Suse Build Service, and this location here is the repository ..........

I agree, it is technically superior to the big dumping ground. Nevertheless, it is a lot less user-friendly, especially for less experienced users. One might argue that less experienced users shouldn't touch anything that's not on the distribution with a stick but reality is different (and e.g. quickly having the latest KDE packages _does_ provide a competitive advantage to SUSE Linux IMO). Searching is one thing, but adding repositories should be made easier too. A more-or-less one-click-installation for YaST2 would be very helpful (we already have the .repo files). Add a MIME type, hook a YaST2 frontend to it in Firefox and Konqueror.

[opensuse-buildservice] Requesting an account
by Carlos Gonçalves 11 Dec '06

11 Dec '06

Hi all. I'm here to request a build service account. As you requested on opensuse.org here goes some stuffs about me and about what I intend to package: My name is Carlos Gonçalves and I live in Portugal (yeah, that little European country forgoten by some). I'm a SUSEPT moderator (¹), a wiki and openSUSE (distro/software) translator (ah! I'm a Tellico translator too). Also, KDE-PT co-admin (unreleased community, yet!). That are basicly my contributions to the open source community. My account would be to package some unusual/new apps (mostly Kapps - did you figured out why?! ;-) ) since many apps are already packaged thanks to the great (open)SUSE packagers we have :-D To begin and release some RPMs that 'my' SUSEPT community wants, I created a simple folder in my webhost here I upload my RPMs. You can take a look at http://www.carlos.pinguix.com/suse/ - as you can see I only can build to SUSE 10.1 and to x86 so that's one more reason to want an account. Best regards, Carlos Gonçalves ¹ - Had the idea, together with some SUSEPT users, to mirror build service, apt, ISOs and official updates. Found a sponsor (to the hard drive) and sent it to NUX (Instituto Politécnico de Bragança's Linux Group) to host. Now we are just checking the integrity of the mirror so in a few hours it will be available. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org

Oh great! Thanks! :) Is there a similar document explaining the other folders in the repositories? Got a couple more questions about the repository layout, actually. :) For instance I find "Apache" and "Apache:"; and there's "Kernel" and "Kernel:". How come there are two sets of similarly named folders (with different content)? Also, I find folders for "Archiving:" and "editors" and "Banshee" and so on -- am I supposed to go through each and add them individually as a repo, or is there a single repo or something which sort of includes all these? Why are they classified like these into categories, in the first place? Do I need to add them, or are these just the software that was already installed on my system? Kind of confused actually ...

[opensuse-buildservice] osc on SUSE 9.3 (missing python packages)

Hi! Has anyone a quick hint for me how to get osc running on SUSE 9.3? I tried with the RPMs from the openSUSE:Tools project, but it won't work because python-elementtree is not available for 9.3 (at least I couldn't find it). After installing the osc package with --nodeps and manually installing the Elementtree Python extension, a sub-feature called cElementTree seems to be still missing: > osc Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/osc", line 6, in ? from osc import commandline File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/osc/commandline.py", line 9, in ? from core import * File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/osc/core.py", line 15, in ? import cElementTree as ET ImportError: No module named cElementTree Did anyone succeed with that?

Hi! First of all: sorry if this is a FAQ, but I think I browsed through the relevant Wiki-pages and the list archive w/o seeing any answer...

Is there anything I could add to my home project to get the equivalence of /opensuse/distribution/SL-10.0-OSS/inst-source-java/ into my build project? It's ok for me to just add all the src.rpm's from there manually to the build service, but I'm not sure if this is *the* solution if all ppl do this... :-) -- Ciao, Gernot --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org

Hi, the openSUSE 10.2 is usable now for building packages against it. Use the "SUSE:10.2/standard" repository for doing this. It will also appear on the simple repository page, in the web client within the next days. bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany email: adrian(a)suse.de --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-buildservice] 3D project in the buildservice
by Marcus Rueckert 06 Dec '06

06 Dec '06

hi, i look for a project for aqsis atm. aqsis is a renderman compliant renderer. i think yafray and blender could live in the same project. (cc'ed maintainers) now the question is: how to name the new child. "graphics:3d" sounds reasonable. any objections? we have this multimedia:photo atm ... which could be moved to graphics:pixel or graphics:photo ... i would like to create the project this evening. so ... complain early. :) sorry for the late mail about it ... darix -- openSUSE - SUSE Linux is my linux openSUSE is good for you www.opensuse.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-buildservice] Build created no logfile...
by Michael Schroeder 05 Dec '06

05 Dec '06

Hi buildservice users, I managed to break the build process for an hour. If you see "build did not create a logfile" errors, please retrigger the builds. There actually is a self-test to catch such errors, but the test did not check the helper program used. (The plan is to get rid of the helper anyway...) Sorry, Michael. -- Michael Schroeder mls(a)suse.de main(_){while(_=~getchar())putchar(~_-1/(~(_|32)/13*2-11)*13);} --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org

Dear BS Maintainers, I just saw that now, in the WebGui of BS, it's possible to enable / disable the targets to build against! Thank you very much for this new feature in the webgui!

[opensuse-buildservice] Problem with BLAS / LAPACK libraries
by David Strozzi 05 Dec '06

05 Dec '06

Hi, There's a small problem with the linear algebra library BLAS and LAPACK in opensuse. These are Fortran libraries. I (and others) have trouble using the libraries with SciPy (python scientific computing package). The problem seems to be that different Fortran compilers use different symbol names for some output routines. When one compiles scipy, there are some Fortran routines that get compiled, I think with g77 by default (maybe not). You can compile and install scipy, but when you try importing it in python you get an error of undefined symbol _gfortran_st_write in the LAPACK library. I have the most recent blas and lapack opensuse builds (940). The official suse-type webpage I got these from say they were compiled with egcs, which is a. wrong (egcs merged back into gcc a long time ago) and b. ill-defined (since g77 and gfortran are both part of gcc). As you search the web, you see that it's part of the lore that "Suse's BLAS is buggy, you have to compile yourself." Not good for Suse! While I'm on it, it's not clear what implementation of BLAS opensuse uses. My guess is it's the reference implementation from lapack's page on netlib, which is not optimized. Better ones exist, like gotoBLAS. Maybe that can be made a suse package? At the least it would help if it were spelled out exactly which Fortran compiler was used to make opensuse's blas. If they can be compiled to allow multiple Fortran compilers to play nicely with them, even better. Cheers, David

[opensuse-buildservice] James Tremblay

Hey guys, I have begun reading the build-service tutorial and feel I should take a moment to get on track with "Good Form". so let me introduce myself. I am James Tremblay , I work as the District Technology Director for the Newmarket NH School District. I have been installing Novell Networks for 13 years. I started by getting a Certificate in Networking form our local Voc-ED college with a primary focus on Netware CNE training. My experience with Linux is shallow, I basically looked up SUSE when Novell announced it's acquisition of it and downloaded 8.? I didn't really start working on more than getting familiar with user space until 9.1 and NLD9. I am good with Novell's command-line architecture and I hope that it will translate quickly to Linux. I use the nick "fxrsliberty" because that is the kind of Harley-Davidson I ride and it helps remind me of good times.

[opensuse-buildservice] BuildScript from BS Repo
by Dominique Leuenberger 04 Dec '06

04 Dec '06

Hi, I have the build script (2006-10-05 I think) installed but I found some very obscure config files: the ones for 10.1 and 10.2 both define a %suse_version of 1001, which caused me some trouble. Somehow, for 10.1 I didn't see it, but as I created a package that should behave differentlz on 10.2, I ran into it. simply changing %suse_version 1020 inside the SL10.2 config file of build helped me. Did I destroy something else with this action? Or did I just fix a bug on my system which is still spread in the world? Any information is welcome...

[opensuse-buildservice] non-SuSE repos for x86_64?
by Thomas Anders 04 Dec '06

04 Dec '06

Am I correct to assume that the BS currently doesn't have any fedora/debian/ubuntu/mandriva repos for x86_64? Releasing spec files that haven't been tested on x86_64 is hardly acceptable these days. Can fedora/debian/ubuntu/mandriva repos (ordered according to my priorities) for x86_64 be added soon, please? +Thomas -- Thomas Anders (thomas.anders at blue-cable.de) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-buildservice] local Fedora_Extras_5 build?
by Thomas Anders 04 Dec '06

04 Dec '06

Doing a local "osc build Fedora_Extras_5 i586 my.spec" currently fails with: - --- snip --- The following package could not be verified: /var/tmp/osbuild-packagecache/Fedora:Core5/standard/i386/SysVinit-2.86-2.2.2.i386.rpm: (SHA1) DSA sha1 md5 (GPG) NOT OK (MISSING KEYS: GPG#4f2a6fd2) - If the key is missing, install it first.

Otherwise, am I expected to run the mentioned commands manually in the chroot? Or am I missing something else? +Thomas -- Thomas Anders (thomas.anders at blue-cable.de) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org
