[opensuse-buildservice] Main project for peless, astrology!
by Paul Elliott 17 Feb '11

17 Feb '11

My program peless has existed for a long time now. I was thinking that if it were a main project users could get it from "get software" without first setting search options. I have also packaged Pelle van der Scheer's program openastro.org. If it were a main project or a subproject of a main project people could get it without setting search options. Perhaps there should be a main project called "astrology" and openastro be a subproject, because I am also thinking about packaging a another program called Maitreya. If there were an project for openastro.org both I and perhaps Malcolm <malcolm_lewis(a)bellsouth.net> could be packagers for it since Malcolm was the first to package openastro on the buildservice. Also the author, Pelle van der Scheer <pellesimon(a)gmail.com>, if he has a buildservcie account and wants to be involved. What is the procedure for starting a main project? -- Paul Elliott 1(512)837-1096 pelliott(a)BlackPatchPanel.com PMB 181, 11900 Metric Blvd Suite J http://www.free.blackpatchpanel.com/pme/ Austin TX 78758-3117

[opensuse-buildservice] OBS integration with git or svn?
by Robert Xu 16 Feb '11

16 Feb '11

Hi, I know this may have been discussed before, but are there plans to integrate svn or git as a backend to the OBS? (ex, accessing sources via svn instead of osc) -- later, Robert Xu -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-buildservice] kiwi's ignore element?
by Chris Cunha 16 Feb '11

16 Feb '11

I don't see a "kiwi" ML so I'll try here for some help with this. In my config.xml (kiwi file) I have a bunch of branding files that are going to replace the existing Suse branding files. I have a list of packages and a list of patterns that are to be installed. Since my branding package is to replace (and conflict) with the Suse version of it, the build will fail if the equivalent Suse branding package is being installed also. Although the Suse package isn't actually in the list of packages it is part of the "lxde" pattern. I read in the kiwi doc pdf file that reads "If a pattern contains unwanted packages, you can use the ignore element to specify an ignore list, with the name attribute containing the package name." I can't find any examples as to how to use this 'ignore' element within my config.xml file. Any help on this would be much appreciated. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-buildservice] How to use $dispatch_adjust (OBS 2.0.5)?
by Srinidhi B 15 Feb '11

15 Feb '11

Hi, I've been trying to figure out how to "prefer" a particular project in my local build service instance running 2.0.5 version of OBS. All these days I've been using the example from BSConfig.pm.template: our $dispatch_prio = [ '!^home:*', # de-prefer jobs (take it only, when no other jobs) '^Foo-Sandbox', '^Foo', # prefer (if there is a job for this project, take it) ]; A couple of weeks back I realized that "Foo" is not being "preferred" by the dispatcher. Digging around, I found that none of the scripts read this variable. But I did find $dispatch_adjust in bs_dispatch script. Since I couldn't figure out how to define this variable, I just renamed $dispatch_prio above to $dispatch_adjust. I now receive the following error message in dispatcher.log: Argument "!^Foo-Sandbox" isn't numeric in addition (+) at /usr/lib/obs/server//bs_dispatch line 397. Interestingly, I don't see any error messages for the other two entries. I'm definitely missing something here. Could someone please tell me how to set / adjust dispatch priorities? From one of the test cases, I could see a "PUT" request to set <dispatchprios>, but I would: 1) prefer to have this in BSConfig.pm 2) like to understand the "adjust" field - smaller number means higher prio or vice versa?

[opensuse-buildservice] request diff in a linked project
by Anas Nashif 15 Feb '11

15 Feb '11

Hi, When submitting a change against a package in a linked project, where the package does not exist physically, the diff does not work and only "New package" is returned. It would be nice to have the diff generated against the original package in the project link source instead if no package exists in the linked project, comments?

[opensuse-buildservice] Are updates for required packages included in a target?
by Andreas.Vetter＠physik.uni-wuerzburg.de 10 Feb '11

10 Feb '11

Hi, What is the policy for updates when building for a target? E.g. when I build a package that requires openssl, will it be built against with the GA-shipped version of openssl or against the updated version of openssl. Is this different for the SLES targets, especially SLES9? Or do I have to add/link something additionally? If yes, how? -- Mit freundlichen Gruessen, Andreas Vetter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-buildservice] SLE_10_SDK status
by Olaf Hering 09 Feb '11

09 Feb '11

I'm trying to build xen and the kernel-* packages it depends on. kernel-xen does not build because makedumpfile is appearently too old. What is the base of SLE_10_SDK? Is it still SLES10 GA? If so, could it be upgraded to a more recent version? Also there doesnt seem to be a list what target distribution is based on what version. In other words, is SLES9 based on GA or SP4 and SLES9 SDK GA or SPx.
