[opensuse-buildservice] Add external source to a package?
by Carsten Ziepke 12 Sep '23

12 Sep '23

Hello, I want to update the package ja2-stracciatella in the games repository to version 0.17.0. https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:Kieltux:branches:games/ja2-str… The new version needs the library string_theory which is not available for openSUSE. The build process wants to download string_theory from github, because it is not found. [ 36s] Scanning dependencies of target string_theory [ 36s] [ 12%] Creating directories for 'string_theory' [ 37s] [ 25%] Performing download step (download, verify and extract) for 'string_theory' [ 37s] -- Downloading... [ 37s] dst='/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/ja2-stracciatella-0.17.0/build/dependencies/lib-string_theory/builder/string_theory-prefix/src/3.1.tar.gz' [ 37s] timeout='none' [ 37s] -- Using src='https://github.com/zrax/string_theory/archive/3.1.tar.gz' [ 37s] -- Retrying... Can I add string_theory (string_theory-3.1.tar.gz) manually to the package and patch the build process? Thank you, Carsten -- Well, since MS cant be sure of the username of someone downloading things, they are going to play it safe and have everything dowloaded and executed by Explorer as suid root. That way, it will run on ANY system anywhere. :) -- George Bonser <grep(a)cris.com>

Implementing a new APT publisher
by Arnaud Ferraris 30 Mar '22

30 Mar '22

Hi, We currently use OBS for building and publishing APT packages for the Apertis project[1] (a Debian derivative distribution). At the moment we use downstream patches for the publisher (src/backend/bs_publish) in order to use reprepro instead of dpkg-scanpackages/dpkg-scansources. As we're considering implementing a new APT publisher based on aptly[2], we'd like to do so in a way that can be upstreamed to OBS so it can benefit the whole community. This obviously raises several questions as to how we should proceed, so I'm sending this email as a call for advice/comments/suggestions. We're considering the following: - this new publisher would be implemented in addition to the existing dpkg-scan* based one and be selectable through global configuration options. - using aptly opens up possibilities, but it isn't always as straightforward as a few system() call; we would therefore need to either ship a helper tool or add a new BSPublisher submodule (the latter is the preferred option atm) - aptly can also be used through a REST API, which implies some asynchronous processing would be preferrable. Is there currently a way to handle async processing in OBS, or would that require another helper tool/module, if possible at all? We're only at the planning and design stage for now, so we would be very interested in your opinion and comments regarding the above. Thanks, Arnaud [1] https://apertis.org [2] https://aptly.info

Leap 15.3 as DoD repo gives "The repository setup is broken, build or publish not possible"
by Till Dörges 08 Jun '21

08 Jun '21

Hello all, since the release of 15.3 is near I'd like to test it on our internal OBS (2.10). I created a new project with a download on demand repository like this --- snip --- <project name="openSUSE.org:Leap:15.3"> <title>openSUSE Leap 15.3 OSS (DoD)</title> <description>dod</description> <person userid="x" role="maintainer"/> <repository name="standard"> <download arch="x86_64" url="http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.3/repo/oss/" repotype="rpmmd"/> <arch>x86_64</arch> </repository> </project> --- snap --- I also copied the project configuration from api.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Leap:15.3. But when I try to use my new repo all I get in the webgui is a red warning sign and the message The repository setup is broken, build or publish not possible Looking into /srv/obs/log/dodup.log only gives me --- snip --- obs:/srv/obs/log # grep 15.3 dodup.log 2021-05-10 00:37:34: [1622] checking openSUSE.org:Leap:15.3/standard/x86_64... updating metadata for rpmmd repo at http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.3/repo/oss/ 2021-05-10 00:44:34: [1622] checking PRESENSE/openSUSE_Leap_15.3/x86_64... updating metadata for rpmmd repo at http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.3/repo/oss/ 2021-05-10 00:49:57: [1622] checking openSUSE.org:Leap:15.3/standard/x86_64... updating metadata for rpmmd repo at http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.3/repo/oss/ --- snap --- The same worked perfectly for openSUSE Leap 15.*2*. Has anything changed or how do I proceed to pinpoint the error? Thanks and regards -- Till -- Dipl.-Inform.

BEWARE: OBS may allow source change after review
by Ludwig Nussel 02 Jun '21

02 Jun '21

Hi, tl;dr if you rely on package reviews for your development process in OBS make sure requests have a revision. Only osc shows the information you are looking for. Turns out submit request in OBS do not necessarily refer to a specific revision in the originating package. Means the sources can change after a review passed. Unfortunately changing the sources does not reset reviews and reviews do not record the revision they were done for. That obviously defeats the purpose of source reviews. Accepting a request without revision may therefore lead to accepting something different from what was reviewed (resp staged). AFAIK this feature has been in OBS since the very beginning, it's just well hidden as the official interfaces osc and the webui do add a revision when creating requests. There is no way to turn that off either. Also tools such as bots that use osc as python module automatically generate submit request with revision. This is not because the server enforces it but because the client code does it. So anyone who wants to fool reviewers just has to use a custom client. According to the OBS team this hidden behavior is actually considered a feature. The security team doesn't treat it as security issue as it's kind of documented¹, even though osc doesn't behave in the documented way. There are plans to add a special attribute to disallow unversioned requests per project². IMHO a global setting to require revisions by default with the option for exceptions would have been more sensible. Anyway, apparently the fix needs some time to ripe still. Meanwhile the factory-auto bot was enhanced to decline unversioned requests to Factory (thanks Fabian). If you are using reviews in eg your devel project or run your own OBS you need to create your own bot or watch out manually. The webui does not seem to display any revision at all, so not helpful. In osc it looks like this: Request: #12345 submit: foo:bar/baz@42 -> blah Absence of the @number means no revision. cu Ludwig [1] https://openbuildservice.org/help/manuals/obs-user-guide/cha.obs.request_an… [2] https://github.com/openSUSE/open-build-service/pull/10992 -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ V_/_ http://www.suse.com/ SUSE Software Solutions Germany GmbH, GF: Felix Imendörffer HRB 36809 (AG Nürnberg)

Project Maintainer can't edit Attributes
by Christian 26 May '21

26 May '21

Hi, just sadly noticed that a Project Maintainer can't edit his projects Attributes. The Maintainer User is not an OBS admin. Seems only an OBS admin is able to edit Project Attributes Is this a Feature or a BUG ? -- Christian ------------------------------------------------------------ https://join.worldcommunitygrid.org?recruiterId=177038 ------------------------------------------------------------ https://www.sc24.de - Sportbekleidung ------------------------------------------------------------
