Hi. After 17 september broken update, I have got a lot of duplicate packages.

[opensuse-factory] build vs. lbuild
by Peter Czanik 18 Sep '07

18 Sep '07

Hello, I tried to compile a package using current factory sources, and ran into the following problem using lbuild: expanding package dependencies... expansion error nothing provides /lib/libreadline.so.5.2 needed by bash nothing provides /lib/libhistory.so.5.2 needed by bash and it is actually right: pegasos0917:/data/10.3/suse/ppc # rpm -qp --provides libreadline5-5.2-16.ppc.rpm bash:/lib/libreadline.so.5 readline = 5.2 libhistory.so.5 libreadline.so.5 libreadline5 = 5.2-16 On the other hand 'build' can build the package from the same spec file. It's just a lot more slow to start up, and inconvenient to use... Which one is right? And a bonus question: is it worth reporting this dependency bug, now that only critical bugs are fixed? Or belongs this to the critical category? Even if it's not in factory, It certainly makes lbuild useless, which is also used by the PackMan team... (actually, I ran into the problem by trying to recompile a packman package for 10.3 on PPC).

[opensuse-factory] Inclusion of "deltarpm" in base system?
by Robin Knapp 18 Sep '07

18 Sep '07

Hi, now that delta RPMs work after bug 309124 has been fixed (I just verified this), I think the deltarpm package should be included in the 1-cd installation media, or more commonly in the minimal base system. It's quite small (<200KB), so this hopefully should not be a problem. IMHO delta rpms are a superior feature and are a huge advantage of openSUSE on slower connections, so this should work out of the box (and during installation). Maybe it also should be added to the "recommend" section of libzypp's spec file. Cheers, Robin PS.: libzypp is really great in 10.3 - even better than what I expected :) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] novell ati driver
by Florin Samareanu 18 Sep '07

18 Sep '07

Hi, Do you think that the new opensource ati driver developed by novell will make it in 10.3? i`m asking because with my card (ati x1600 mobility) vesa driver does not support more than 800x600, while my native lcd resolution is 1680x1050. Also, in order to make more pleasant the installation steps on 10.3 , you could try including avivo driver (http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=avivo/xf86-video-avivo.git) . A small offtopic question: is there a git/cvs/something repository of this driver or is it developed internally? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] xen on 10.3-B3
by Hans Witvliet 17 Sep '07

17 Sep '07

Anybody on the list trying xen on 10.3-B3? Seems to be stuck. On a 10.2 DOM-0, i can run 10.1 DOM-u without any adaption. Same is not true for 10.1 DOM-U's on a 10.3-B3 DOM-0 Other shot, creating a new DOM-U from yast, seems to be hanging half-way (reding the repo afair from the top of my head) HtH, Hans --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

by Andreas Vetter 17 Sep '07

17 Sep '07

Hi, I just wanted to install asterisk and could not find it in 10.3b3 or factory. It's in build service. Why (and when) was it dropped? I miss it! -- Andreas Vetter Fakultaet fuer Physik und Astronomie Universitaet Wuerzburg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org
