CentOS 8 Stream builds unresolvable
by Martin Tůma 10 Nov '23

10 Nov '23

Hi, For some time, CentOS 8 Stream builds are unresolvable because of the following error: unresolvable: nothing provides gcc = 8.5.0-18.el8 needed by gcc-c++, (got version 8.5.0-15.el8), nothing provides libgomp = 8.5.0-15.el8 needed by gcc, (got version 8.5.0-18.el8) Can someone please have a look at it? I doubt that it is a Centos problem and they have broken gcc packages in the distro for weeks... Thanks M.

Hello, I need to change my email address on https://build.opensuse.org/ because my old email address will stop working.

build.opensuse.org slow
by Berthold Gunreben 04 Oct '23

04 Oct '23

Hi, I just wonder if it is normal, that I currently have extremly slow bandwith to build.o.o when trying to do a openSUSE:Factory:zSystems testbuild with type qemu. The Package that I am interested in is python-onnx, and it is now downloading for 58 Minutes without any end in sight. Yes, I see some progres at /tmp/osc_build* with data rates at about typical ISDN data rates, however this is not really workable. When pinging build.opensuse.org, I get a considerable number of package drops, … [View More]

Hi, three days ago I created a new subproject in preperation of a new release. This subproject has almost the same meta file as one of its siblings. However x86_64 packages are not build at all, only aarch64 builds are running. Is there currently any problem building x86_64 packages?

Tackling spam on build.o.o
by Atri Bhattacharya 12 Sep '23

12 Sep '23

Hi, In response to growing numbers of spam accounts and comments (see mailing list threads, progress.o.o), perhaps it is time — for lack of a better solution at present — that some restrictions on new users be imposed. I suggest not allowing new users to comment unless they have a commit or before 30 days from creating their account, whichever comes earlier. The OBS is a packager's workspace after all and we should not have users creating accounts just to comment on others' work in the first … [View More]

Black-listed or otherwise illegal to distribute packages on OBS
by Atri Bhattacharya 12 Sep '23

12 Sep '23

Hi, It seems there is a proliferation of black-listed (for example, x264, etc. according to [1]), or simply illegal to re-distribute (for example, skype, according to 8.iv in [2]) packages made available on build.o.o by packagers who really should know better. A simple search may be used to check where these packages are, so I am eschewing a list here. What mechanism, if any, do OBS admins have to clean-up these packages (and on repeat offences, perhaps the offending packagers [3]) so that … [View More]

How to handle packages required for installation, when building against another project?
by Johannes Kastl 08 Sep '23

08 Sep '23

Hi all, I would like to provide Ansible packages for SLES15/Leap15 using the "new" python3.11 stack. I can build against devel:languages:python:backports, which has the sle15_python_module_pythons enabled and builds all packages with the python3.11 stack. I get most of the dependencies for Ansible & Co from there, but only for build time dependencies. Once I want to install the packages, I would need to also add the devel:languages:python:backports repository on the machine, which … [View More]

HELP: d:l:R:autoCRAN in broken state as a whole
by Detlef Steuer 04 Sep '23

04 Sep '23

Dear build.opensuse.org admins, since some time the repo devel:languages:R:autoCRAN is in broken state. All of the 20000 + x packages. The repo brings all of CRAN, cran.r-project.org to the Suse ecosystem in a completely automatic way. It enables the installation of R packages as binaries instead of local compilation. When I started the project three years ago the repo got a quota of 20000 packages, which no longer is enough, which in case lead to the broken state. Raising this limit to … [View More]

Making self-hosted OBS not rely on build.opensuse.org availability
by Oliver Smith 01 Sep '23

Hello, for the Osmocom project we are hosting our own OBS instance. The projects in our instance depend on build.opensuse.org's instance for the base distributions. For example, from one meta config: <repository name="Debian_12"> <path project="openSUSE.org:Debian:12" repository="standard"/> <arch>x86_64</arch> </repository> As I understand, this is the reason that during recent outages related to openSUSE's OBS instance moving to a different … [View More]
