How to change my e-mail address for build.o.o
by Martin Winter 08 Apr '24

08 Apr '24

There are several threads asking this very same question. The latest I found was this one: https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/buildservice@lists.opensuse.org/th…. However I still do not find an answer to that question. What I tried: - Going to my profile on build.o.o and edit my profile: The e-mail address is not editable. - Change the user meta via `osc meta user -e letsfindaway`: Does not change anything. - Login to Micro Focus and try to edit my profile there: The e-mail address is not editable. So what is the way to change the e-mail address listed on my profile in build.o.o and used to send e-mail notifications? Thanks for any insights and pointers! Martin

[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>

Oracle Instant Client
by David Nichols 10 Aug '23

10 Aug '23

Hi, I got notices for deletion requests against the oracle-instantclient packages in two OBS projects. This is a binary package from Oracle - there is no source, but it may be freely distributed: https://www.oracle.com/cz/database/technologies/faq-instant-client.html This package has been listed as blacklisted in OpenSUSE since 2010: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Build_Service_application_blacklist#Packag… However, in the meantime, Oracle changed their redistribution policy to allow free redistribution of this package in binary format. I was not involved in the discussions, but back in 2010 my colleague got the oracle-instantclient binary packages accepted into OBS; he told me at the time that an exception was made (IIRC - in any cases the packages have been there for a long time despite being on the blacklist). My question to anyone who can help - can this package get accepted into the NonFree project and removed from the blacklist? If not, I believe that forbidding the oracle-instantclient package from OBS and OpenSUSE will adversely impact professionals that work with Oracle DBs - particularly due to the domino effect on dependent packages. There is no legal reason for this restriction - just a philosophical one from my understanding. Example project (now with a deletion request): https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:davidnichols/oracle-instantcli… Thanks in advance for any feedback from anyone who has insight into this situation. thx David -- *David Nichols*Qore Technologies, s.r.o.

Cannot get tag-release working properly with obs workflows
by Neal Gompa 11 Jan '23

11 Jan '23

Hey all, I was trying to get a tag-release workflow working with the new OBS workflows feature for one of my projects: obsctl[1], but the tag-push hook returns errors and GitLab winds up disabling the hook. When it *does* run, it branches the package and doesn't put anything in there, making it kind of useless. The workflow definition is here: https://gitlab.com/datto/engineering/DevOps/obsctl/-/blob/main/.obs/workflo… I don't understand what I'm doing wrong, and the documentation is no help. :( Can someone please help?

project stuck in release event
by Ludwig Nussel 10 Jan '23

10 Jan '23

Hi, My project devel:microos:systemd-boot is apparently stuck in a release event. I guess I used "osc release" the wrong way at some point. No package builds anymore. How can I unblock this? cu Ludwig -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ V_/_ http://www.suse.com/ SUSE Software Solutions Germany GmbH, GF: Ivo Totev HRB 36809 (AG Nürnberg)

Cannot find obs-service-set_version on CentOS_7 even though it's installed
by Edward Baudrez 23 Dec '22

23 Dec '22

I'm trying to build a package on a private OBS server for CentOS_7. (I've built it successfully for openSUSE 42.2-15.4.) This package build has a _service file that contains <service name="set_version" mode="buildtime"/> I have linked obs-service-set_version into my project, and enabled it for CentOS_7. The build seems to succeed. In fact, when I inspect the build log for my package, I'm seeing: [ 13s] processing recipe /.build-srcdir/_service:tar_scm:rslib.spec ... [ 13s] init_buildsystem --configdir /.build/configs --cachedir /var/cache/build /.build-srcdir/_service:tar_scm:rslib.spec build ... [ 13s] initializing rpm db... [ 13s] querying package ids...

[ 81s] Can't exec "/usr/lib/obs/service/set_version": No such file or directory at /.build/runservices line 87. [ 81s] /usr/lib/obs/service/set_version: No such file or directory [ 81s] service run failed for service 'set_version' The build stops after that. I've checked the RPM created for obs-service-set_version (obs-service-set_version-0.5.14-1.1.noarch.rpm) and it does contain "/usr/lib/obs/service/set_version", so I'm a bit puzzled now. Could anybody give me a hint?

Cannot perform local builds for CentOS_7
by Edward Baudrez 21 Dec '22

21 Dec '22

Hello list, I'm trying to perform a local build of a package for CentOS_7. I can successfully execute "osc build openSUSE_Leap_15.3" for the package. It runs inside a qemu-kvm virtual machine and works as expected. However, I cannot run "osc build CentOS_7" for the same package. This is what I'm observing: The beginning of the log looks normal: Building nccmp.spec for CentOS_7/x86_64 Getting buildconfig from server and store to /home/***/nccmp/.osc/_buildconfig-CentOS_7-x86_64 Getting buildinfo from server and store to /home/***/nccmp/.osc/_buildinfo-CentOS_7-x86_64.xml Updating cache of required packages 0.0% cache miss. 253/253 dependencies cached.
