obs-autosubmit was the solution for (lazy) developers not submitting their packages to factory

Could you enlighten me how this works, obs-autosubmit just submitted some cleanup changes to factory, which were IMO not worth a review process. The changes are fine, it was just surprising to see it autosubmitted. (sr#121599)

Sometimes I also have testing releases in devel which I not necessary want to give factory team workload of review but still want some bigger test circle...

You can disable autosubmit temporarly or forever: http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-packaging/2012-02/msg00003.html Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

I expected it is possible to disable, but I more wonder, when obs-autosubmit takes effect if enabled, it is not the worst thing to submit "forgotten" changes, e.g. auto-submit 10 days old changes

It is submitting 7 days old changes Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Hi,

I have made SR# 115787 to Publishing for dblatex which is a version update. However after almost a month it is still waiting for decision.

As the beta is coming in soon I am not sure if this package if approved by the devel project will go to factory in a timely manner, but the real problem is I do not thing I am the only one in this situation, so the question what can be done in situations where the upstream ( in this case the devel project or the package maintainer) is lagging in the process of SR's

Hi, Togan,

relax and have a cup of tea...

I am relaxed as I am using the package anyway (not in the devel or factory is not an issue since it is available in my home project) but can others use it as well

everyone is rushing for the beta...so no one will lag your SR on purpose...

I am sure it is not on purpose however beta is key thing why ship an old package when the newer version is there

actually our OBS is becoming worse everyday recently ( I noticed it didn't move any single step for almost four hours today afternoon) according to coolo...autobuild team take that as the first priority...or we'll have no beta...

patience will help a lot, I think...

Has nothing to do with patience Togan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Similarly I have given up on seeing jbig support in tifflib and hylafax etc in 12.2 or possibly even the next release after that.

6 weeks and counting...

https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/113336

I also have a tiff SR already in, but they are waiting for jbig to get into factory first before they can accept the tiff SR just into the tiff devel project let alone from there into factory. At this rate jbig won't be in factory until the middle of 12.2 life cycle, and tiff won't be actually using jbig until factory during 12.3 life cycle, and won't be in an actual release until 12.4 / 13.1 !

I prefer to treat people the way I want to be treated, so I didn't bother anyone, trusting that the obs sent them an email and that they are working through their lists in order, and I don't have to worry about mine getting lost, and so bothering people would only slow things down by distracting them from working through the stuff in front of me, not to mention simply annoying them.

Then when I finally did ask, they told me to just have patience too, so I have not mentioned it again till now.

Hi Brian, This is a slightly different case though - it's about legal review in factory. We only have one person doing it and he other things to do as well. So things tend to pile up pretty high for him. I'm not really sure what the problem with jbigkit is - it's by far the oldest request in the queue and it looks like pretty normal GPL and isn't even large (the two usual things that make legal review complicated). So I can only guess it was really overlooked - among the other 90 requests for legal review. I'll raise a flag.

No, it's not. My SR#112067 wins by 12 days ;-) Really, just delete pysol (a noise generator more than a game). -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

That's not in legal queue - it's in review by user matejcik and if Jan does not log into build.opensuse.org to check his reviews, he won't notice ;(

The funny thing is that a delete request was sent for a package that seems unmaintained, and the maintainer set as reviewer... but if it is soooo unmaintained that the "maintainer" (probably the OBS metadata is outdated anyway) doesn't answer it's going to stay there. Looks like a hole in the process that would make Factory have maintained and veeeery unmaintained packages, but not plain unmaintained ones. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Aehm, what process - RedDwarf (that's you, correct?) added that review by user matjecik. So _you_ wanted the delete request to wait for that review, so don't complain now that the review is pending.

IMHO asking the maintainer if it's OK to delete his package from Factory is basic courtesy. Who is supposed to decide otherwise? Anyway, not complains here. I supposed after so long you may have wanted to ignore the review and just delete it (no idea, perhaps Jan wasn't in Suse any more or something like that). But if you prefer to wait, even after 12.2, it's OK with me. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

What you seem to miss: if it's in review by someone else, it's not on my plate. So revoke the request and create a new one without the review by user

IIRC a SR can be accepted/rejected ignoring a review. Anyway... SR#122739. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
