[opensuse-buildservice] different control files for different debian platforms?
Is it possible to have different control files for different debian platforms? I have a package that has a Build-requires dependancy of libboost-dev for most debian platforms, however, xUbuntu 9.04 wants this to be libboost1.35-dev. Is it possible to have a control-xUbuntu_9.04 file the same way you can have a foo-Fedora_Extras_6.spec for rpm based distributions? What is the best way to handle this? I don't think you can ifdef a debian control file the way you can a rpm spec file. Thank You. -- Paul Elliott 1(512)837-1096 pelliott@BlackPatchPanel.com PMB 181, 11900 Metric Blvd Suite J http://www.free.blackpatchpanel.com/pme/ Austin TX 78758-3117

In "Build Service/prjconf" http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/prjconf I find: Substitute Packages get renamed or are named different for different distributions. You can specify per repository dependency rewrite rules. %if 0%{?suse_version} Substitute: Canna-libs canna-libs %endif %if 0%{?fedora_version} Substitute: canna-libs Canna-libs %endif On openSUSE, the package is named "canna-libs", so replace all requirements for "Canna-libs" to "canna-libs" - and vice versa for Fedora. Could I use this feature to do a substitute of libboost1.35-dev for libboost-dev only for xUbuntu 9.04? Is there an "%if" expression for the ubuntu and debian versions? How are they named? That is, how do I write the following psudo-code formally? if (ubumtu 9.04) then Substitute: libboost1.35-dev libboost-dev endif Could I put an "Required:" statement inside such a conditional scructure? How do I write the following psudo-code formally? if (debian_based distribution) then Required: build-essential endif If this could be written it might be the solution to this bug! : https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=471298 Thank You. -- Paul Elliott 1(512)837-1096 pelliott@BlackPatchPanel.com PMB 181, 11900 Metric Blvd Suite J http://www.free.blackpatchpanel.com/pme/ Austin TX 78758-3117

Is there an "%if" expression for the ubuntu and debian versions?
Yes, you can find it yourself via looking at the project config of Ubuntu and Debian projects. Or just trust me when I say to use %ubuntu_version ;)
How are they named? That is, how do I write the following psudo-code formally?
if (ubumtu 9.04) then %if 0%{?ubuntu_version}
Substitute: libboost1.35-dev libboost-dev endif
%endif
Could I put an "Required:" statement inside such a conditional scructure?
How do I write the following psudo-code formally?
if (debian_based distribution) then
%if 0%{?debian_version}
Required: build-essential endif
If this could be written it might be the solution to this bug! : https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=471298

you can check this your self via osc meta prjconf Ubuntu:9.04 | grep ubuntu_version %define ubuntu_version 904 %ubuntu_version 904
Do I write %if 0%{?ubuntu_version} == 904 or %if 0%{?ubuntu_version} == 9.04
There is a nice table in: "Build Service/cross distribution package how to" http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/cross_distribution_package_how_to
but it only mentions versions for rpm based distros!

I have experimented with conditionals like this and the behaviour I observe is that the build service behaves like they are always false. Substitute, required works if used unconditionaly.

Therefore I should not define, but only use these macros. Where are these expressions documented?

They are rpm like, so rpm macros are basically the specification.

osc meta prjconf openSUSE:Tools This does not use the %if 0%{?debian_version} construct it does use '%if "%_repository" == "images"' However:

I tried %if 0%{?debian_version} and %if 0%{?ubuntu_version} they do not work. They always act as if false. What does work is: %if "%_repository" == "Debian_Etch" || "%_repository" == "Debian_4.0" || "%_repository" == "Debian_5.0" || "%_repository" == "xUbuntu_6.06" || "%_repository" == "xUbuntu_8.04" || "%_repository" == "xUbuntu_8.10" || "%_repository" == "xUbuntu_9.04" Required: build-essential %endif But of course this has the disadvantage of needing to be edited everytime a new debian distribution is added. -- Paul Elliott 1(512)837-1096 pelliott@BlackPatchPanel.com PMB 181, 11900 Metric Blvd Suite J http://www.free.blackpatchpanel.com/pme/ Austin TX 78758-3117

Did you try filing this as a bug so that it will end up on the right person's TODO list? Thanks, Andreas -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
Did you try to be explicit by added version, for example : %if 0%{?debian_version} >= 10 or %if 0%{?mandriva_version} >= 2008 ? 2009/8/24 Andreas Gruenbacher <agruen@suse.de>:

Well since I found out about the macro via a communication on this list and ?debian_version and ?ubuntu_version don't seem to be documented anywhere, maybe its a feature and not a bug. What I need is a way in a project configuration file to conditionalize on being a debian based distro. There seems to be too much folklore associated with the BS and not enough documentation.
Thanks, Andreas
