by Marco Strigl 07 Mar '17

07 Mar '17

Hi, My goal for the hackweek was to familiarize myself with osc2. This resulted in a new subcommand (comments) and a devel project in obs [1] with packages to install and play around. History of osc2: osc2 was developed as a GSoC (Google Summer of Code) project in 2011 and 2012 by Marcus Huewe [2] It is planed as an object-oriented rewrite of the "old" osc client. A history of the development process during GSoC can be found here [2] The future: My plan is to implement the missing … [View More]

[opensuse-buildservice] Avoiding leaked passwords in ~/.oscrc
by Greg Ward 06 Mar '17

06 Mar '17

Hi all, we use OBS in an environment where everyone can see everybody else's home dirs, so it takes very little abuse of sudo to read my co-workers' ~/.oscrc files. From there it's trivial to decode 'passx' and steal my co-workers' OBS passwords. Is there a way to avoid this? And if so, is it documented anywhere? Thanks, Greg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner(a)opensuse.org

by Mathias Radtke 06 Mar '17

06 Mar '17

Hi, the keys of our repository expired about two weeks ago. https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:uibmz:opsi:opsi40 A new key was created. However the new key is not available on all mirrors. Sometimes we and our users get the old expired key from one of the mirrors. is there any way to trigger a sync of the key on the available mirrors?

[opensuse-buildservice] WEAK keys on Ubuntu 16.04
by Mathias Radtke 03 Mar '17

03 Mar '17

Hi, about two weeks ago our keys expired and got recreated. Before the expiration the key used a weak cipher and using it on Ubuntu16.04 the system mentioned it as weak. After the expiration we hoped the new keys will be using a better cipher. However the key is still weak. is there any way to recreate the key with a better cipher manually?

[opensuse-buildservice] Should we move from controller to request specs?
by Evan Rolfe 03 Mar '17

03 Mar '17

Hi all, I've been reading this blog post about changes to controller tests in rails 5 and it seems that controller specs are becoming "outdated" in favour of request specs. https://everydayrails.com/2016/08/29/replace-rspec-controller-tests.html "Both the Rails and RSpec teams suggest replacing or removing your app’s controller tests (also known as the functional test layer), in favor of directly testing models (units), or with higher-level integration tests" Also some helper methods like … [View More]

[opensuse-buildservice] External branched project blocking ajustements

There's a user that has made a branch of one of my project (used for maintenance) home:R0n1n-77:branches:home:bruno_friedmann:branches:Application:Geo Due to that, I'm not able to adjust the meta attributes of mine to follow what Application:Geo has. I've made weeks ago a osc sr delete for this project to the user, and a mail explaining why he should link or copy and not branch. Now I'm stuck, what is the escalation procedure to get ride of this ? -- Bruno Friedmann Ioda-Net Sàrl www.… [View More]

[opensuse-buildservice] Integrating AIX platform into OBS
by Ayappan 02 Mar '17

02 Mar '17

Hi, I have a jenkins setup for my build systems. As we know jenkins is a master-slave architecture where the build normally happens in slaves. We connect master & slave machines using ssh mechanism. That option is available in jenkins Web UI. That is pretty much straightword. I have integrated an AIX machine using the above said ssh mechanism. However in OBS, i don't see any such options in the web UI. Moreover the way to integrate a remote build machine (say AIX ) doesn't seems to be … [View More]

[opensuse-buildservice] Proposal to move AboutController#crash to a rake task
by Evan Rolfe 01 Mar '17

01 Mar '17

In this PR I'd like to move the AboutController#crash action to a rake task. The current implementation seems kind of "dirty" to me since the route is commented out by default. I wonder if this is even really ever used anymore? Please let me know if you have any objections to this change. https://github.com/openSUSE/open-build-service/pull/2732/files Thanks -- Evan Rolfe Full Stack Web Developer SUSE Linux GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, D-90409 Nürnberg Tel: +49-911-74053-0; Fax: +49-911-7417755; … [View More]
