Hello,

I'm trying to rebuild pidgin for openSUSE 10.2, and noted that it uses %gconf_schemas_prereq, which is not available in stock 10.2 (it is in GNOME:unstable and openSUSE 10.3/Factory).

See X11:XGL project, almost all compiz packages there are built using new gconf macro.

Thanks. The only difference I see in compiz.spec is that you use %if %suse_version <= 1021 BuildRequires: gconf2-rpm-macros %endif so for suse_version less than or equal to 1021 (what is 1021, actually? 1020 is standard 10.2, presumably), rather than 1020 which I was using. Build still fails with the same result! The patch spec does not seem to be applied, so the build server did not install gconf2-rpm-macros. Going to try and just upload the full pidgin.spec rather than a diff. Hopefully that works. Any other suggestions?

<= 1021 means less than and including 10.2 but not anything over that.

That should install gconf2-rpm-macros on 10.2. Check the logs to see if it is.

So my second hypothesis is correct: the build service does not quite like spec patches. I uploaded the full pidgin.spec and things were building -- to a point. pidgin-2.1.0 depends on avahi-devel, which is in the # usedforbuild list, but is not mentioned in any BuildRequires: line. I'll try adding it manually, but what is the # usedforbuild list actually for? It seems to be ignored by the build server.

But in GNOME:UNSTABLE, where these packages reside, needed packages are updated, so plain %if %suse_version would cause problems. So I need a switch:

If it is an old SuSE version or the package is built in Build Service.

It is not absolutely accurate, exactly it would be:

If it is an old SuSE version or the package is built in GNOME:UNSTABLE.

But just now there is no chance to specify it.

Actually it should be possible. In the bs, %distribution is contains something like "$project / $repository". Or you could define a special macro in GNOME:UNSTABLE config and test for it in the spec file.
