[opensuse-buildservice] linking to packages built with the build service
by Robert Schiele 06 Sep '07

06 Sep '07

Hello! Currently there is no way to link to a package built on the build service because if we do so this link will break on every rebuild since the release number will change. Because of that I recommmend to automatically create symbolic links without the version number as we have in the update directories on ftp.suse.com. For example: zypper.rpm -> zypper-0.6.15-0.1.i586.rpm If we do so we can just link to http://software.opensuse.com/download/.../packagename.rpm. This link will never break due to an automatic rebuild. Robert -- Robert Schiele Dipl.-Wirtsch.informatiker mailto:rschiele@gmail.com "Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum sonatur."

[opensuse-buildservice] RFC: osc support for SLES9 / Python 2.3
by Dr. Peter Poeml 13 Aug '07

13 Aug '07

SLES9 ships with Python 2.3. With my latest code changes, I noticed that I changed things in a way incompatible to Python 2.3 (using decorators). (I basically noticed this because byte-compiling failed according to the build log, although the build didn't actually fail due to that. I saw it by pure luck.) This can easily be fixed, so I removed the decorators and started to test osc on SLES9, and found more problems on the way. Python 2.3 didn't have a cookielib module, and it is not easy to add it because parts of it live integrated in the urllib2 module. Still, it is straightforward to just skip cookie support if not available. But there were further problems, which prevent the current codebase from working with Python 2.3. I fixed some further issues, and got as far as to a working 'osc build'. However, the next problem I'm facing is that I can't commit files (gets an internal server error back), and since urllib2 is not as easy to debug as newer versions, I stopped there for now. Overall, the situation gives me the impression that osc hasn't been working on SLES9 lately, or maybe since a long time, and nobody did ever complain about it. The download statistics show 6 or 7 osc package downloads in the last 50 days for SLES9. What do you think. Is it worth pursuing this further? Or should we maybe simply no longer build osc for SLES9? All other platforms in the buildservice seem to have Python 2.4 or newer. Peter -- Allen Gewalten zum Trutz sich erhalten. SUSE LINUX Products GmbH Research & Development

[opensuse-buildservice] osc commands for showing/editing metadata
by Dr. Peter Poeml 16 Jul '07

16 Jul '07

Hi, while looking at adding support for editing project configuration, I thought that I'd like to organize osc subcommands that show or change metadata in a more consistent way. I have written down some ideas, that involve some renaming, and I'm wondering what would make most sense to most people: 1) current: new (read): new (write): usermeta,edituser showuser edituser meta,editmeta showpacmeta editpacmeta meta,editprj showprj editprj meta,editpac showpac editpac updatepacmetafromspec editpac --fromspec - showprjconf editprjconf This swamps the "osc help" output with new commands... but they will at least appear together, since alphabetically sorted... 2) Only have a "showmeta" and a "editmeta" subcommand, which take their own subcommand specifying what kind of metadata to work on: showmeta user showmeta prj showmeta prjconf showmeta pac editmeta user editmeta prj editmeta prjconf editmeta pac [--fromspec] 3) Or maybe even put them under a single subcommand, "meta": meta [--edit] user meta [--edit] prj meta [--edit] prjconf meta [--edit] pac Anyone has an opinion on that? Thanks, Peter -- Allen Gewalten zum Trutz sich erhalten. SUSE LINUX Products GmbH Research & Development

[opensuse-buildservice] Proposal for project in root namespace: console
by Petr Cerny 08 Jul '07

08 Jul '07

I suggest creating project "console" for programs not requiring X. May be split into console:whatever (probably later, after acquiring enough packages).

[opensuse-buildservice] Fixing Mandriva 2007
by Plinnell 03 Jul '07

03 Jul '07

Hi, Currently, there are a lot of programs which will not build on Mandriva 2007 on the BS as there fontconfig fails with something like this: installing fontconfig-2.4.1-1mdv2007.0 /usr/bin/fc-cache: error while loading shared libraries: libfontconfig.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory error: %post(fontconfig-2.4.1-1mdv2007.0.i586) scriptlet failed, exit status 127 The issue here is fontconfig, like many executable programs on Mandriva have the main binary and libraries split, even if the libraries are not shared. Scribus for example needs libscribus.0 It was explained to me this makes upgrading easier, but I'm personally skeptical you need to do this to lots of normal desktop apps. In any case, adding libfontconfig1 into the build packages would fix it. Hope that helps, Peter --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-buildservice] drop request for SUSE:SLE-10:SLED:Education
by Lars Vogdt 29 Jun '07

29 Jun '07

Hi all I've consolidated the repo above with the Education:desktop repository. So there is no need for this extra repository any longer. All packages from this repository (and even more ;-) are available in the Education:desktop repository now. So please remove the SUSE:SLE-10:SLED:Education repository. Thanks!
