[opensuse-buildservice] install_info_prereq on CentOS
by Michael Behrisch 03 Nov '08

03 Nov '08

Hello, I tried to build netcdf on CentOS and it stumbled over the following line PreReq: %install_info_prereq As far as I understand it, this line is needed to prepare the installation of info files but the (CentOS) build went through without it as well. Is this feature unneeded (unsupported) on CentOS? Should I try to forward my changes to the package maintainer and which is the preferred way to do so? (I tried it once with a different package by mailing him directly and got no answer.)

[opensuse-buildservice] Automatic test for correct installation
by Michael Behrisch 03 Nov '08

03 Nov '08

Hello, as far as I understand it, there is currently no test whether a package build by the build service can also be installed (if it is not used by other packages). Maybe there already is such a test and I just did not find the correct settings? If not, one solution would be to create a dummy package which has a BuildRequires line mentioning just the package to test. In the build part it could try to execute an exectuable of the package and report failures. Is it possible to create a package consisting of a spec only? Is there an easier way to achieve this, because I would need one extra package for every package I want to test? Thanks for your help and for providing this service, Michael -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-buildservice] OBS i586 scheduler dead
by Guillermo Ballester Valor 03 Nov '08

03 Nov '08

Hello, I've seen in OBS status page that i586 scheduler is dead. I was wondering why some packages I updated were not rebuilding for i586. Is it a serious OBS failure? Thanks to all OBS developer team.

Re: [opensuse-buildservice] Build question for packing precompiled binairies of a different platform
by Ulf 02 Nov '08

02 Nov '08

I was able to create a RPM package for AIX 5.3 with precompiled binaries. First add these lines to your %description secion of your spec file. Target: %_target Target_cpu: %_target_cpu Target_OS: %_target_os Now create the package The best way would be to do a : rpmbuild -ba <spec file> on the target platform Or you can try a: # rpmbuild -ba --target ppc-ibm-aix <spec file> Check the description of your create package, you will get the values for _target, _target_cpu and _target_os. In my case linux reported aix as _target_os, but it have to be aix5.3. In case of AIX 5.3 you have to set these values, set them in your spec file: %define _target ppc-aix5.3 %define _target_cpu ppc %define _target_os aix5.3 and upload the spec file to OBS. This will not solve your problem, but I think you have to do these things anyway. Ulf Lange -- GMX Download-Spiele: Preizsturz!

[opensuse-buildservice] request release macro
by Joop Boonen 02 Nov '08

02 Nov '08

All, As Mandriva (mdv200*) , Centos (el*) and Fedora (fc*) also have their release in the package name I would like to request a release macro that still handles the package name in more or less the same way (the sub version get one higher every build. But more compliant to the releases. Currently the whole release number is not taken in account it's always replaced by a x.y release. Is it possible to create a macro or to handle it in a different way?
