[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

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] Matching release numbers
by James Oakley 29 Jun '07

29 Jun '07

I've been looking at the kernel projects and I've noticed that they contain a kernel-source package which is linked to by the binary and syms packages. In order for the syms package to work, all of the packages must have the same release number. I've been trying to do the same thing and failing miserably. When I try to manually set them all to the same release, in both the spec files and the history files, a couple of them will be set to release+1 and others will be set to release+2.

[opensuse-buildservice] Public access to .spec files
by John Pye 25 Jun '07

25 Jun '07

Hi all I have been working with the Red Hat people to try to get a package released, and I have been checking my package using the Build Service. I came across an improvement that would help greatly with this type of work. Firstly, there needs to be some way of providing public access to the spec file, as well as the .src.rpm. It is standard when submitting Fedora package to provide a web link to .spec files to allow easy review. The next thing is that the %{?dist} tag is stripped from the 'Release' header. This is bad, because the %{?dist} thing is preferred practise for Fedora packages, and reviewers expect it be there. This means that .src.rpm packages from the openSUSE build service do not meet their requirements. Also, the release tag given in the %changelog part of the spec file should be updated if the Release header is updated. Otherwise the %changelog doesn't correspond to the package version. Finally, it would be good if there were a quick and easy way to review the contents of each package built. Currently the package links go to an encrpyted HTTPS download page. It would be better if they went to a page a bit like those in the Debian and Ubuntu package repositories, showing the dependencies and file contents, and download links, etc. I've been really impressed with the Build Service so far. Keep up the great work.

[opensuse-buildservice] Dependencies: what if some distro have it, some distros don't?
by John Pye 25 Jun '07

25 Jun '07

Hi all I have a package that needs a fairly recent version of SCons in order to build. This version is available in most of the newer distros, but seems to be missing in some others, specifically openSUSE 10.2 and Mandriva 2006. There is a SCons package somewhere else in the Build Service and I can link to that if I want. However I am not sure how this work when for example FC6 already has the required version in the 'extras' repostory, versus openSUSE 10.2, which doesn't have it. Is there a way I can specify for the Build Service to use my local package *only when* a satisfactory version is not available in the base repository? Or is this already the default behaviour?

[opensuse-buildservice] PreReq handling is broken on < 10.3

Hi: this is the situation: package X needs Y for build and Y PreReq Z , Y gets installed but Z is not installed before Y and installation of Y aborts because it really requires Z to be installed first. Works flawlessly on factory only, and package built properly without any changes about a week ago, all the other distros break. cya Cristian.

[opensuse-buildservice] "Building" source rpm only ?

Hi, One of the library I am trying to package is ATLAS, which is a self tuned library for blas/lapack (numeric code).

[opensuse-buildservice] Newbie: building an RPM using SCons in Buildservice
by John Pye 23 Jun '07

23 Jun '07

Hi all I have just uploaded the necessary files for my project to the Build Service. My package is for the ASCEND modelling environment. It has been fairly well tested and builds correctly on Fedora Core 6. I uploaded the tarball and the spec file (which is actually also included in the tarball, FWIW). The build log gets down as far as starting the build, but it says 'scons: command not found'. It seems that it's not picking up the build dependency on the 'scons' package. What do I need to do to make sure that all the necessary dependencies are there at the start of the build? I had assumed that they would just be installed as a result of the stated package BuildDepends dependencies? Looking forward to getting this all working. Seems like a really good idea.

[opensuse-buildservice] Re: openSUSE BuildSystem: Problem, Tidy im Build System zu bauen (Changelog-Problem?)
by Sierk Bornemann 22 Jun '07

22 Jun '07

Hallo! Ich bin Maintainer des tidy packages für openSUSE (http:// software.opensuse.org/download/Tidy/) Seit vorhin versuche ich, im openSUSE Build System das Tidy package neu zu builden, nachdem ich die Sourcen aktualisiert habe. Ständig moniert mir aber das Build System, dass da anscheinend etwas nicht in Ordnung ist mit dem Changelog bzw. dessen chronologischer Reihenfolge: "error: %changelog not in descending chronological order" Obwohl ich nur 2 Changelog-Einträge oben an das bisher bestehende Changelog drangefügt habe und es vorher immer anscheinend anstandslos zu builden ging, geht es jetzt aufeinmal nicht mehr. Wurde da was fundemental im Buildsystem geändert? Ich kann im Changelog trotz mehrfacher Durchsicht und auch Korrektur keinen Fehler entdecken, verstehe die entsprechend ausgeworfenen Meldungen des Buildlogs nicht. Ich wäre sehr dankbar, wenn sich jemand Befugtes der Sache mal annehmen und entsprechende Richtigstellungen im tidy Specfile wie auch in der tidy.changes-Datei vornehmen könnte (incl. anschließendem Rebuild), damit wieder aktuelle Tidy-Pakete zur Verfügung stehen. Oder mir oder Peter Poeml entspr. Bescheid geben. Peter Poeml von SUSE, Co-Maintainer des Pakets habe ich heute schon Bescheid gesagt, er hat mich mit diesem Ansinnen und zur Lösung des Problems an diese Liste hier verwiesen. Ich bin erst Montag wieder online und könnte Änderungen vornehmen, wäre schön, wenn eine Lösung auch ohne mein Zutun möglich wäre.
