[opensuse-buildservice] un-link ?
Is there a way to permanently turn packages which started life as linked packages into packages that aren't linked without deleting the package first? -- Jon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

In case you created the package as a branch you can just do osc up -u osc del _link osc ci Otherwise you need to copy the merged sources first out of the checked out package before running up -u and move it make afterwards. bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH email: adrian@suse.de

osc up -u

Actually you can use osc linktobranch PROJECT PACKAGE to convert the link to a branch prior to deleting the link. Regards Dave P -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

I tried that but it still had link-oriented bits in .osc/_files. Specifically, it still contained tproject, tpackage, trev, tsrcmd5 and lsrcmd5 attributes in <directory>, and a <linkinfo/> element. Do these things matter or is it merely the presence or absence of a _link file which determines the link-y-ness of a package? -- Jon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

Apparently they do matter. I just performed the following experiment: 1. created a temporary package 2. linked that package into another project 3. used 'osc linktobranch' to convert the project 4. used rdelete on the source project Now all operations on the linked/branched project fail. Incidentally, I found a way to do what I want: 1. [optional, but useful] synchronize the contents of the source and linked projects so that the linked project is identical to the source project 2. use copypac to overwrite the linked project with the source project. This retains the release number. 3. use rdelete to remove the original source project I wish there was an easier way to do this. An osc unlink command would be really nice. -- Jon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

Sorry for the late reply. I use it without a problem if I want to create a new package based on the original link but linked to another package. I can't comment on debris left behind.
