Yes, but it needs also an exception on the server side for that package.
While I understand that root access is really needed for a lot of test cases, we want to ensure that build src.rpms do not damage a user system.
Therefor we will also not allow root for building rpms in future.
But we will work on QA features (hopefully later this year). And I take this as input for them ...
Thanks. To be clear: coreutils-testsuite does not need to %build as root, and in fact successfully runs *many* tests as non-root today, but I would like to run the root-tests, too [1]. Something like:
%check ... make check-very-expensive # run non-root tests sudo env PATH="$PATH" NON_ROOT_USERNAME=$USER \ make -k check-root # now run root tests ...
For now you could use Lars' trick like I'am doing now in home:rudi_m:branches:Base:System/util-linux BuildRequires: root4abuild .... sudo -E make check ... You could aggregate root4abuild from home:rudi_m. There I have a rpmlint fixed package for most distros and archs. cu, Rudi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org
