[opensuse-buildservice] New user intro & smx project
by Erik Aronesty 18 Mar '09

18 Mar '09

Dear OBS Users, (Following the tutorial mentioned posting a brief intro to the opensuse-buildservice mailing list.) I've been developing software for a while (20 years), in various and sundry languages. I think my first major development project was a Foxpro database for a law firm in NJ, done while majoring in CS so that properly dates and places me. I am a software developer, and one of the projects that I have been working on a lot recently is called "SMX". It's a language for developing websites that I like and I think other people, if they used it, would also like. In part by soliciting volunteers, I've gotten SMX to work on 32 and 64 bit versions Win32, Linux, BSD, and an older version was working on Debian. I have since lost access to my Debian machine. Maintaining access to various machines in order to run builds has been difficult and I went looking today for some other way of doing it. In 20 years, this is my first time that I've ever thought to seriously need to compile a given project on many flavors of operating systems, and I'm hoping that OBS is the right tool to help me there. SMX is also a fairly "big" and "old" project (some code goes back to 1996) with many "optional dependencies", and other such configuration messiness. I'm not sure if starting it as a "home project" is right, or if I should just request to create it as "smx". - Erik Aronesty http://www.smxlang.org http://svn.googlecode.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-buildservice] osc 0.115, local OBS instance edition
by Adrian Schröter 18 Mar '09

18 Mar '09

Hi, we have just released a new osc 0.115. Users of api.opensuse.org can ignore it, but users of local build service instance might have waited for this. It fixes: 1) Package download from publishing server works now. This makes package downloads for local builds much faster. 2) copypac and linkpac to packages from remote Build Service instances is working now. You can for example run osc linkpac openSUSE.org:openSUSE:11.1 kernel-default home:adrian to link the kernel package from openSUSE:11.1 in external build service to your home project in your local build service. 3) Upload of (large) files is working now to local instances. You can get version 0.115 as usual from http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/Tools/ All credits are going to Marcus Hüwe, Michael Schröder and Andreas Bauer(server side fixes) for this release. thanks a lot adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH 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] bug in obs-server sysconfig file
by Jon Nelson 17 Mar '09

17 Mar '09

The obs-server sysconfig file (fillup-style) seems to have a bug in it. EVERY time I reinstall or upgrade obs-server the OBS_SCHEDULER_ARCHITECTURES value in /etc/sysconfig/obs-server gets removed. Why is that and can it be prevented? It's caused me more than a few headaches. -- Jon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org

What filenames would you like to use in this case, what should be stated in the .dsc then? Lets do that on an example multiplatform .deb and .spec based package. The source file is called hallo.tar.bz2. The .spec files references then hallo.tar.bz2, this is easy. On the other hand, the .dsc file references then hallo.tar.gz, a file that does not exist, only to circumvent some dpkg-source consistency checks which are there for a good reason? This is not a good solution, because not transparent. Why not fulfil the Debian/Ubuntu and the Fedora/... whatever packaging requirements? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-buildservice] problems with OBS 1.5rc2 after upgrading host to openSUSE 11.1
by Jon Nelson 16 Mar '09

16 Mar '09

I had a number of problems after upgrading an OBS instance from openSUSE 11.0 to 11.1 The client remains running openSUSE 11.1, as it has for months. The osc version on the client has not changed and is the latest available. The first is that adding a *comment* via osc did not work. I could add and remove files (PUT/DELETE respectively), but the subsequent POST would not, returning a 403. I tracked it down to this code, in /srv/www/obs/frontend/app/controllers/source_controller.rb, near line 139: if not ['diff', 'branch'].include?(cmd) and not @http_user.can_modify_package?(pkg) I believe two things are wrong with this line. First, it does not include 'commit'. Second, the logic is wrong (it used AND instead of OR), and the corrected version is below. if not ['diff', 'branch', 'commit'].include?(cmd) or not @http_user.can_modify_package?(pkg) Why did this work fine with openSUSE 11.0 and not 11.1? The OBS versions are the same (1.5rc2)! Second problem: only for the 'Admin' user, editing the user info (/user/edit) fails every time with: undefined method `source_backend' for #<Person:0x7fac0a31a048> What might be going on here? -- Jon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-buildservice] ymp for upgrade?
by Andrew Jorgensen 13 Mar '09

13 Mar '09

Hello, We want to create a ymp (1-Click) which will cause the user to upgrade all packages provided by our repository which are installed, but not ask the user to install anything which is not installed. Is such a thing possible? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org
