Hi all,

I'm trying to build miro 6 for ubuntu 12.04 ubuntu 13.04 using my self hosted version of OBS. My self hosted version of OBS is 2.3.8.

The problem with miro is that it needs python-support which exists only in the ubuntu universe repositories.

Reading the opensuse buildservice mailing list I saw that you can't add ubuntu's universe to opensuse because of legal issues.

How can I add ubuntu universe to my self-hosted version of OBS ?

You interconnect your self-hosted OBS with the SUSE one, right? In this case you can't add RPMs to the repository because the rpms are directly downloaded from the SUSE OBS. I can provide you one (not the only?) solution. You create a project in your instance with prj information, prjconf and the packages in /srv/obs/build/$DISTRO/$ARCH/:full/ to build without the suse OBS interconnect. Here you can add the rpms/debs you wish. Maybe the most from an Install DVD and the additional packages from a repository (for ubuntu the universe repository). But you need a bit free space per distro. For example for Ubuntu you need about 10GB space (all packages twice for i586 and x86_64 arch). If you want to hold the project including the packages locally, I'll answer you with the steps to do that.

Thanks for your response Philipp,

To confirm, yes my local instance is connected to opensuse.org Can I have my local obs connected with opensuse.org and at the same time create another project that tracks packages locally ?

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "If you want to hold the project including the packages locally". Doesn't creating another project and adding rpm/deb manually mean that I'm holding the packages and and the project locally ?

If you want to binary import some packages, create some repo somewhere via osc or webui. Ideally in an empty project without sources Afterwards, you can create the :full directory in /srv/obs/build/$project/$repo/$arch/:full and copy your binaries inside. Last, you need to tell the scheduler to scan it via obs_admin --rescan-repository <project> <repository> <architecture> If this new repo has the Ubuntu repo inside it's path, it is enough to build against your new repo in your projects.

Hi Adrian, Let's see if I understand this correctly: - I've created /srv/obs/build/home\:stefan\:localubuntu/xUbuntu_13.04/x86_64/\:full on the obsserver - I do a osc co of home\:stefan\:localubuntu on my laptop - I add miro as a package inside this project + osc add and commit - do I run rescan-repository after adding the miro packages ? - Where should I add the ubuntu repo, in which directory ? "If this new repo has the Ubuntu repo inside it's path..." Thanks, Stefan On 28/05/13 21:45, Stefan Cocora wrote:

Thanks for your advice Adrian, I'll try it as soon as possible and feedback the results to this mailing list.
