(x-posting to -factory and -packaging to inform users / -buildservice to find solutions. Please reply to the appropriate list based on the content of your reply, not to all!) Hi hackers and packagers, Since this morning, a lot of packages show status 'unresolvable - nothing provides libldap-2.4.so.2()(64bit) needed by libcurl4' The issue will settle itself, but it will take quite a moment (actually, until the next snapshot will be ready). How did this happen: ==================== openldap2 was changed in the packaging layout; so far there were 2 spec files (openldap2 and openldap2-client). the -client part was the one building the libraries (like libldap-2_4-2). The maintainers re- organized this package and simplified it, now building everything from openldap2.spec directly. This resulted in openldap2-client being removed from openSUSE:Factory. so, why does this impact openSUSE:Factory/snapshot ? ==================================================== The /snapshot repository copies binaries from packages in /standard. As the package 'openldap2-client' no longer exists in /standard, all binaries, also from /snapshot, have been removed. What can you do *NOW* to build your project / package ===================================================== * Not that much I'm afraid. You can try to build against openSUSE:Factory/standard (but that will give you many more rebuilds than you want and increase the load on OBS, thus slowing down the final solution for everybody) * You can wait for /standard to finish its build, pass on to openQA and get a new /snapshot published. A possible alternative solution: ================================ @Adrian / Buildservice team: can we possibly inject the binaries from openldap2-client in the backend directly for /snapshot, until the next one is published? This could give users at least a working repo back. Other ideas are welcome of course too.
