[opensuse-buildservice] GCJ java components?
by John Calcote 14 Jul '08

14 Jul '08

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I've got a package that uses some java in the build process (openxdas). Java is optional, and if javac (gcj -C), jar or javadoc utilities are not found, then the java build is skipped. I'm currently using gcc-java in BuildRequires. That get's me gcj -C in my JAVA env var, but I don't know what to use that gets me corresponding jar and javadoc utilities. Recently, I've discovered the java-1_5_0-gcj-compat-devel package, and added it to my BuildRequires line. That get's me there for opensuse platforms, but it apparently doesn't exist on any others. Isn't there an all-in-one solution for Java?

[opensuse-buildservice] libexpat-devel not found on CentOS and Fedora_8
by John Calcote 14 Jul '08

14 Jul '08

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Can anyone tell me what the compatible package is for libexpat-devel on CentOS 5 and Fedora 8? I'm getting expansion errors on this package for these platforms. Also, since I probably have to use a conditional for these packages on these platforms, can someone tell me how to tell them from the others in my spec file?

[opensuse-buildservice] openSUSE Build Service Trust concept
by Marko Jung 14 Jul '08

14 Jul '08

Hi, after a lot of inspiring conversations with co-workers at SUSE and friends from the open source community I finally published a first abstract draft how we could add some metrics to openSUSE build service to create a trust system. http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/Concepts/Trust This article does not go much into particular neither explains concrete implementation details. Main target of this proposal is to have a basis for discussion. The article even goes beyond the focus on trust and proposes some additional metrics to support openSUSE users in their decision from which repositories they should obtain their software packages. Within the next weeks I would like to discuss this with you. So if you are interested in this topic please contact me. Any suggestions, feedback or critics are highly appreciated. Cheers!

[opensuse-buildservice] Using svn for source instead of uploading tarball
by Kevin James 14 Jul '08

14 Jul '08

Hi all, I'm still pretty new to the build service, so I was looking around the wiki documentation for some kind of best practice on managing source code - it's not a problem yet as noone is using my package, but I'm trying to find out now how to deal with stable versus unstable somewhere down the line - so if I have version 1.3 as a stable version, and then working on 1.4 which may or may not build.. Should I only do local builds of the 1.4 until it's released, then upload to the build service? I'm also trying to figure out how to deal with a source code repository - currently I have a shell script which tars up my source directory and then commits it through osc, but I found this page on the wiki: http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/Workflows under "Edit Packages" near the bottom, it says add sources (http source, svn/cvs source) Does this mean I can get the build service to grab the source straight from my svn server?

[opensuse-buildservice] ERROR Your flag configuration seems to be too complex to be saved through this interface. Please use OSC
by Dirk Stöcker 14 Jul '08

14 Jul '08

Hello, could the webinterface please be fixed, so this warning comes no longer when repositories have been removed. Every year the webinterface gets unusable to change configuration, because a repository has been removed.

[opensuse-buildservice] Shared spec vs duplicated spec's
by Mark V 11 Jul '08

11 Jul '08

Hi Group, I raised this on the IRC channel so apologies if you've seen this. I have a project's src.rpm that I'd like to move onto the OBS, and this has raised some issues.... The current src.rpm uses lots of --build "option n" switches. Some of these are accommodated by OBS since they are distro specific builds. Others however relate to building different components. My Question is how to 'map' this to OBS? Do I setup one package per 'component', and so have many duplicates of the src.spec file? Or, is it possible for several projects to share a common spec file and build specific components by passing in some parameters? Appreciate any suggestions or better yet if you can point to a project that uses such a 'shared-spec' setup :) Regards Mark --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-buildservice] Build fails with rpmlint crashing (again?)
by Dominik George 11 Jul '08

11 Jul '08

Hallo list, several weeks ago, I had problems getting a package built because rpmlint crashed. I asked for that on IRC and was told that it was a bug that the team was working on. I just tried again and noticed that the build still fails at the same point, rendering me unable to get the package compiled. On IRC, I was told that the rpmlint bug was fixed some time ago. The project in question is pidgin-lastfm in Home::Natureshadow (linked in GNOME::Community). Any ideas?

[opensuse-buildservice] rpmlint and older suse_version checks
by Wolfgang Rosenauer 11 Jul '08

11 Jul '08

Hi, could we stop moaning about old %suse_version checks as long as SLES9 is still supported? Please stop the warnings for stuff down to 910 since I'm not going to rewrite my working specfiles just for SLES9.
