[opensuse-buildservice] excluding files from build-compare
I have a package that plops a timestamp into a file. Obviously, every time the package is rebuilt (due to a dependency change) this timestamp changes. I would like to exclude this file from the build-compare. How do I do that? -- Jon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org

Best approach is to change (patch) the file to not contain the time stamp... Dominique -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org

Unfortunately, that's not something I can do in this case. -- Jon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org

If you give a link, some nice person on this list might give it a shot and see what can be done... if the date / time can be added tot he source, it can be removed :) Dominique -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org

Usually we solve that in the package and set a fixed timestamp in the files. For example the time from last entry of .changes file. In that way a source change has an effect but not a rebuild. But that depends of course of the place where the timestamp is used. -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH email: adrian@suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org
