[opensuse-factory] no daily updates etc.?
Hallo, I m using ftp://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/factory/repo/ but my question ist now if there is somewhere something like a daily build. I ve several hardware problems (not caused by suse) but I m hoping that for example the latest kernel will solve parts of of my problems.

yes, but you can anyway always look in the devel project in the build service, it might have already newer code and built rpms. bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) email: adrian@suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Hello, Carlos E. R. írta: that the fix still needs some polishing. For example beta2 for PPC was completely broken (wrong link on installer, no 32bit glibc), and as there was no update ever since, I still don't have anything to test. I reported now many bugs for openSUSE and SLES beta2 for x86, but my main interest is PPC, which can't be tested right now.

Yes, ¡but I will not be able to install! What can I test, if I can not install? If I run "zypper dup", by half or less the run things will have changed again, zypper will fail because packages will be missing from the repo, I will see it when I come back, and I will have to restart zypper. And the restart will fail again for the same reason. Result: failed install, no more testing, no bug reporting. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

I mean that if the repo is updated daily, every day, I will not have time to update before it changes again.

I know. But you have to feed it a tremendous list of packages not to download, which you have to learn from "rpm -qa" and some scripting.

Give it a try. rsync creates the remote file list at the beginning, and if you run into a big factory change, lots of old files will not get transferred (because they are gone meanwhile). So your run will end earlier, and you can restart earlier to fetch the new files. And you can create a "durable" list of exclude patterns for unwanted big files like kernel-debug-* or similar. Using *, you need to obey that the shell can not resolve the pattern (because it matches some file in .).

The correct parameter is --dry-run or -n. You need to create the upmost destination directory by hand before using it; --dry-run really does run "dry", without changing anything locally.

Are you sure this is a good thing? For instance, my adsl is not fast enough to ensure update during a single day.
One standing request I have for FACTORY is to make updates (quite a bit) smaller.
That would surely help :-) You should also consider creating a file that contains the "release number" of the entire repo, so that this can be reported on Bugzillas. It could be a timestamp, stored as another line in "SuSE-release", perhaps.
Among others this should include not updating packages which really have not seen material changes -- for example there really is no need to push all those updates for opensuse-manual_en all the time.
Of course. Maybe you can come up with some method to change just the release number without actually downloading the package. Symlinks?
Let's see what Adrian and team are going to come up with. ;-)
You could also consider making an alternate weekly frozen repo. Or saying "we will not push updates on weekends", so that we can count on having that time to do the "zypper dup" at that period on homes. Not everybody all the world around has a fast network at home. I haven't, just a 1mbit adsl. Others have even less. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

+1. But I think that's hard to implement without loosing the "rebuild every dependent package" feature. You cannot have all: The current concept of clean builds makes perfectly sense for a distribution with releases, but not as much for a Factory distribution.

That would not help since that stuff is not archived. That would mean: Even if you have that number, you cannot get a system to that state because the files are not there any more. For snapshots, we have Beta. Factory is a moving target. Okay, with the OBS you would have at least the source that produced the binary build, which sometimes is sufficient.

Well, update the release version or whatever of each package, but somehow don't download it all. I have no idea how, of course, don't know enough of the internals.

It would help when reporting to know how "old" is the factory and whether the reported problem might have disappeared. Not only for you, who can learn that info from the rpm versions numbers, but for the rest of people on the mail list who can't. As you intend to keep updating factory faster than before, we will not know what factory version we have installed. Also, if we have, say, version 1990 locally and zypper is upgrading to version 1992, if we detect that the number has changed to 1993 on the repo while running "zypper dup", we know (and zypper can know) that we have to restart zypper, instead of seeing strange errors about "package not found". - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

The key is to provide delta rpms. So you would still update opensuse_manual, but only download the diff - which should be in the range of bytes instead of megabytes. Unfortunately we have to many tasks for too little people - as it's "just" work to do, but by some key people that have many other important jobs to do.

How would this work with the daily updates you (suse) are proposing? I mean, how many days back would you keep the daily deltas? - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

Well, I wouldn't even know what's left to do, leave alone explaining it to someone. Of course if someone superbright supplies a patch to the build service sources it's all done.

Delta-rpm's are diff patches with changed pkg number only? They are/were used to update the pkgs with the suse-updater.... This is the most smart and useble way of updating imaginable.. Why exactly are the pkgs rebuild in the buildservice, if that can be done in the boxes?

Deltas are build from current and previous package version, so you have to have both packages to generate delta. If package has changed a lot using only new version, instead to create delta can save some time. -- Regards, Rajko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

In other words: They can only be used on a stable system, with 'known' pkg-versions? (or am i wrong here?) -- Enjoy your time around, Oddball (Now or never...)

I guess that gives the most benefits, as changes are usually not that large. -- Regards, Rajko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
