[opensuse-factory] Update frequency of the openSUSE:Factory snapshot repo
In the past the snapshot repo was created (AFAIK) to reduce the number of rebuilds triggered by changes in the Factory/standard repo. However this is no longer the case. The snapshot repo seems to be updated as soon as that the Factory/standard repo is being published and this causes an big number of rebuilds. Of course this is the way that things should work, but I wonder if it is really necessary to have the snapshot repo updated at least once a day (if not twice a day). This is causing that repo's that are building against it to be triggered for a full rebuild again and bigger repo's will just keep on building and building, without ever really coming to the point to be published. My question now is if we can lower the frequency of updating the snapshot repo (and give somewhat more peace to OBS) or is there a way to setup a repository to ignore those snapshot updates ?

Actually all of openSUSE:Factory - including all product builds have to be finished and 2 hours passed before it's cloned. But this can easily mean twice a day yes. I made that 40 hours now and we can extend it even longer, but most often I update then manually because someone complains that certain bug fixes are "not in Factory" - and building against standard repo creates a lot of load on the schedulers.

Hi Stephan, Thanks. I hope the 40 hours would be enough to have repo's finish their build. Is there any other way to create a more independent build ? I can imagine that most of the updates might concern packages that shouldn't cause a big rebuild, but maybe this would require certain parameters in my project config ?

No, if glibc is updated to a new version, all factory repos will rebuild. Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Actually, say, KDE3 Factory repository takes 5-6 days to rebuild, even if there are no other tasks in KDE:KDE3 other than Factory-related. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

And how it works for openSUSE:Factory:NonFree? The snapshot repo has been with a broken cg package for... years? (it requires "libGLU.so", which isn't provided by anything, it's fixed in the standard repo). -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

just don't use snapshot repo there. I now made it an empty wrapper around standard wrapper. BTW: I changed the logic for updating the snapshot. It will now wait for KDE:Distro:Factory, KDE:KDE3, X11:XOrg, GNOME:Factory and openSUSE:Factory:Live to be published before snapshotting. I hope that will still happen often enough.

So I should use <repository name="openSUSE_Factory_NonFree"> <path repository="standard" project="openSUSE:Factory:NonFree"/> <path repository="snapshot" project="openSUSE:Factory"/> <arch>i586</arch> <arch>x86_64</arch> </repository> to be able to use Factory:NonFree and at the same time use the snapshot for Factory? It's a bit cumbersome. Or with this "empty wrapper" I should be able to just use <repository name="openSUSE_Factory_NonFree"> <path repository="snapshot" project="openSUSE:Factory:NonFree"/> <arch>i586</arch> <arch>x86_64</arch> </repository> ? Because it seems to be some problem with this wrapper. The version of cg that is now provided is installable, but it's a really old 1.5 version instead of the 2.2 version available in the standard repo. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Nevermind. I see openSUSE:Factory:NonFree/standard builds against openSUSE:Factory/snapshot. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
