[opensuse-buildservice] rpmlint and "Packager"
by Dirk Stöcker 23 May '09

23 May '09

Hello, whether I add "Packager" in a spec file or not, rpmlint complains in both cases. One time because of hardcoding. The other time because it is missing. Could this please be fixed? What I would like to see is that the buildservice-email-address also used in the GPG key of the repository is automatically copied into the spec (like e.g. changelog or revision). Is this possible (thought that would not fix the hardcoding error message) or can the name+email be added in the build command directly?

[opensuse-buildservice] Problems with files added by remote URI
by Michael Behrisch 26 Mar '09

26 Mar '09

Hello, I tried to compile the fox1.4 package for ubuntu and wanted to add the sources directly from the debian server http://packages.debian.org/etch/libfox1.4 Unfortunately when adding the files by URL to my obs package (like http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/f/fox1.4/fox1.4_1.4.34.orig.tar.gz) something went wrong, because the build process fails: dpkg-source: error: file fox1.4_1.4.34.orig.tar.gz has md5sum 724e66b89b5451d5032165e03ff5228d instead of expected 3424b9d3f9b71e1f53e9c3822de3b76c I checked this by downloading the file once from the debian site and once from the obs and they have different checksums indeed. The sizes are the same thus it is probably not a matter of automatic gz extraction. The diff.gz of the same package has the same problem, that's why I think there might be something wrong with the remote upload. Has anyone else encountered this problem? Is there a known workaround besides down-/uploading?

[opensuse-buildservice] Colons considered harmful: escaping LD_LIBRARY_PATH in OBS projects
by Brandon Philips 09 Mar '09

09 Mar '09

Hello All- The problem can be illustrated by trying this out: osc co openSUSE:Factory attr cd openSUSE:Factory/attr quilt setup attr.spec cd attr-2.4.39/ ./configure make strace getfattr/getfattr / Here is a snip from that strace: open("/home/philips/projects/openSUSE/x86_64/libattr.so.1", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat("/home/philips/projects/openSUSE/x86_64", 0x7ffffec11540) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/home/philips/projects/openSUSE/libattr.so.1", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat("/home/philips/projects/openSUSE", 0x7ffffec11540) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("Factory/attr/attr-2.4.39/libattr/.libs/tls/x86_64/libattr.so.1", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("Factory/attr/attr-2.4.39/libattr/.libs/tls/libattr.so.1", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("Factory/attr/attr-2.4.39/libattr/.libs/x86_64/libattr.so.1", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) Not ideal! The process is trying to load obviously non-existent libraries. This is because libtool creates a wrapper for getfattr so it will be executed using local libraries built in the source tree instead of the system libraries: # Add our own library path to LD_LIBRARY_PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/home/philips/projects/openSUSE:Factory/attr/attr-2.4.39/libattr/.libs:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" But it is breaking because LD_LIBRARY_PATH uses colon characters as a separator like PATH... I talked to the libtool maintainer about this and he said: On 07:37 Thu 18 Dec 2008, Ralf Wildenhues wrote: > > I have found that libtool generates temporary wrappers with improperly > > escaped LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

Ralf's first point is correct. ld doesn't accept \: as a literal colon like PATH does. So, we will need to fix this first. _ OR _ Instead of taking on the pain of fixing ld and all of the tools and scripts to generate and understand slash escaped colon characters we could stop using colon as a separator in build service project names. Upstream maintainers are not going to be excited about fixing the colon character problem up because the build service is probably the only thing using it. So, can we please use another separator? Perhaps the dash "-". This character is well accepted and works across http/dns/sh/etc without escaping or special consideration. Doing nothing about this isn't an option. Many packages use this trick to test programs as they sit in the source tree without doing a `make install`. If we do nothing developers who are new to OBS and unaware of the issue will waste time, as I did, trying to figure out why their library fixes aren't working. Thoughts? Thanks, Brandon P.S.

[opensuse-buildservice] OBS 1.5 Release Candidate
by Adrian Schröter 19 Jan '09

19 Jan '09

The almost last gift in this year :) we updated the tar ball of the openSUSE Build Service and the rpm packages in openSUSE:Tools project. Changes since 1.5 Beta 1 release are fixes for product and image creation. Local image build support works now together with latest versions of the build.rpm and osc. Documentation writing for the product creation has been started on the concept wiki page: http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/Concepts/Product_Definition tar ball is downloadable at Novell Forge: http://forge.novell.com/modules/xfcontent/downloads.php/opensuse/1.5 Rpm packages can be download and installed easily via http://software.opensuse.org/search?baseproject=openSUSE:Tools&q=obs Please read the README.SETUP or README.UPDATE file to finish the install. Susanne branched also the 1.5 tree last week in svn. This means development in trunk is open again, but important fixes should get backported. Please drop me a mail in addition, if you think they are important for the 1.5 Final release in January next year. happy new year Your Build Service Team -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) 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] iChain timeouts
by Dominique Leuenberger 18 Jan '09

18 Jan '09

Hello everybody, Was there a change on the iChain setup? Recently (maybe for about one week or so..) I am logged out very frequently from the OBS and Bugzilla tracker... whereas before I could basically log in once in the morning I have now to log in approx every hour, or maybe two hours (not using it on a minute basis and I did not measure.. but I have to login almost everytime I want to do something).

[opensuse-buildservice] kiwi-inside-obs - open issues !
by Jan-Simon Möller 14 Jan '09

14 Jan '09

Hi all! I have a modified version of obs (r5507) working with kiwi imaging inside obs. Today I updated to svn trunk. Now i see these errors: - imaging (kiwi-image) expansion errors: nothing provides kiwi-filesystem:ext2 nothing provides kiwi-packagemanager:zypper IIRC _no_ packages provide this dependencies and this is _not_ transparent for imaging of different distros. Whats the plan here ? Could someone please also give some feedback on: http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/Concepts/CrossDevelopment/Preinclude Best regards, Jan-Simon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-buildservice] Some errors and mistakes.
by aledr 07 Jan '09

07 Jan '09

Good day! Yesterday I sent some messages on IRC talking about an error on "rake db:migrate" on 1.5rc1 packages. Solved that with some changes on "043_add_archs.rb" and "013_add_archs.rb" files under "/srv/www/obs/frontend/db/migrate/". Did someone of the admins saw the messages? It's not possible to "rake db:migrate" of webclient too, but I didn't tried to figure It out. The next point is the step 4.1 in "/usr/share/doc/packages/obs-api/README.SETUP". Followed the instructions to add openSUSE:11.1 project hosted at the openSuSE BuildService but It failed with the folllowing message: "Errorcode: 404 Message: repoid 'openSUSE.org:openSUSE:11.1' is illegal" Looking inside "openSUSE.org.xml" file there is a reference to "https://api.opensuse.org/public" which seems doesn't exist. Am I missing some step? There's a lot of bugs to call it an RC, isn't?

[opensuse-buildservice] openSUSE 10.2
by Matwey V. Kornilov 07 Jan '09

Hello, How soon will openSUSE:10.2 standard be completely removed from OBS? It seems that I have to mirror the project to my local_obs if I need opensuse 10.2. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org
