OK, that's a neat attempt to change the topic - but we were talking about compression of .src.rpm. No matter how you got there: at the end the sources need to be in the src.rpm.
I don't read that in the GPL. They (a tarball, cpio archive, expanded git checkout, whatever) need to be on the same media set as the src.rpm, but I cannot see how a HOWTO telling "SRPMS/foo.src.rpm needs sourceballs/foo.zip for building" and both delivered on the same DVD / the same would violate the GPL. But if we need to tar it up for the Source DVD anyway, we can just as well just put it into the .src.rpm ;)
I just don't think they need to be compressed (or only very lightly)
The first thing I forbid my users is <service mode="buildtime" name="recompress"> <param name="file">*.tar</param> <param name="compression">xz</param> </service> :-) This is the most useless waste of CPU time ever ;-) Unfortunately it's the default when you create a _service via "osc add https://github.com/seife/foo.git" Just add an rpmlint error that chokes on compressed tarballs in Source: statement and keep the .src.rpms compressed ;-) -- Stefan Seyfried "For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature cannot be fooled." -- Richard Feynman -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
