[opensuse-factory] How to tell Thumbleweed from Leap in the spec file?
It seems Leap lacks a lot of libraries that Factory/Thumbleweed has. Many packages fail to beild because of this, because they have in in Build Requires. The situation is not going to change in future versions. Is there a way to make a check if the distro is leap or Thumbleweed in the spec file? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

%if 0%{?suse_version} == 1315 %if 0%{?is_opensuse} echo this is LEAP %else echo this is SLES12 %fi %if 0%{?suse_version} >= 1320 echo this is tumbleweed %fi Yes, it's ridiculous, but that's what happens when nobody thinks of consequences :-) -- 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

I think because Leap is based on SLE12 the desirable way how to build a package for Leap should be to build it gerically for SLE12 and not specially only for Leap: %if 0%{?suse_version} == 1315 # this is for SLE12 and usually also for Leap # e.g. "configure --without-foo" # when SLE12 does not provide libfoo %fi versus %if 0%{?suse_version} == 1315 && 0%{?is_opensuse} # this is specially only for Leap but not for SLE12 # e.g. "BuildRequires foo1-devel" and "configure --with-foo" # when Leap provides libfoo version 1 # %fi versus %if 0%{?suse_version} >= 1320 # this is for Tumbleweed # e.g. "BuildRequires foo2-devel" and "configure --with-foo" # when Tumbleweed provides libfoo version 2 %fi But I do not know how far this is possible in practice for those packages in Leap that are based on Tumbleweed.

From my experience with enlightenment and friends there was some missing optional dependencies in leap/tumbleweed that arn't in SLE. Mind you there also not common deps (luajit, bullet physics) Cheers Simon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
small correction , Tumbleweed now returning for %{suse_version} 1330
