[New: openFATE 319632] Grub2: Scan custom.cfg for grub2-once
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 27 Jul '16

Feature added by: Egbert Eich (eeich) Feature #319632, revision 1 Title: Grub2: Scan custom.cfg for grub2-once Requested by: Egbert Eich (eeich) Requested by: Egbert Eich (eeich) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: grub2-once is used to test grub menu entries which may not boot. This feature is often used by developers. However menu entries for testing are frequently added to custom.cfg. Therefore this file should be scanned as well so that boot entries from it can be selected. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/319632

[New: openFATE 317762] git mirror integration
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 05 Jul '16

05 Jul '16

Feature added by: Adrian Schröter (adrianSuSE) Feature #317762, revision 1 Title: git mirror integration Buildservice: New Milestone: 2.7 Priority Requester: Mandatory Requested by: Adrian Schröter (adriansuse) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: OBS can already roll tar balls from git (or other SCM systems) on code change, however, this has two disadvantages: * source server needs to store new tar ball for each change * using files as build descriptions is only working via workarounds. A full git (and only git, not svn,..) support would allow to mirror an entire git tree on the source server and fetch only updates. This means we need to * build tar balls at build time (since package systems like rpm rely on it) * ensure that a rewritten git history can not drop sources of former builds. * allow mirroring of either * * package sources only * * entirely on package level, including .spec files -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/317762

[New: openFATE 316517] 32bit version of padsp in 64bit openSUSE
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 27 Jun '16

Feature added by: Mircea Kitsune (MirceaKitsune) Feature #316517, revision 1 Title: 32bit version of padsp in 64bit openSUSE openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Mircea Kitsune (mirceakitsune) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: I've been trying to fix a Linux game for which sound wasn't working. After some searching, I found that I must run it with the "padsp" command. However, the game is 32 bit and I run 64 bit openSUSE, so "padsp ./game_binary" wouldn't work. I searched for a padsp32 command and even tried to replicate the padsp script, but the library for the x32 version doesn't exist in the x64 repositories. Eventually I got it working by extracting libpulsedsp.so from the x32 openSUSE repos, and manually launching the binary with a LD_PRELOAD pointing to it. This is a workaround and maintaining it can become problematic. The existing library can be found in /usr/lib64/pulseaudio/libpulsedsp.so and the script in /usr/bin/padsp. Basically, I'm asking for x32 bit versions of these in the x64 variant of openSUSE, so any 32bit program can benefit from them too. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Only the 64bit version of padsp is included. Therefore, only 64bit programs can make use of it. Including the 32bit variant in the 32bit pulseaudio package for 64bit openSUSE would solve this problem. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/316517

[New: openFATE 320952] OBS doesn't fetch arch-depend sources (Arch Linux)
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 23 Jun '16

Feature added by: Alex Talker (alextalker) Feature #320952, revision 1 Title: OBS doesn't fetch arch-depend sources (Arch Linux) Buildservice: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Alex Talker (alextalker) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: A bit dirty example https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:alextalker:aur/firefox-aurora Building of the package crashes since architecture-specified source files($source_x86_64 and $source_i686) was not fetched before makepkg was running. But since it's described in https://www.archlinux.org/pacman/PKGBUILD.5.html , I don't understand why did you ignore this. This could be also resolved through $CARCH variable, but since you doesn't provide it too, idk what to do. https://www.archlinux.org/pacman/makepkg.8.html#_environment_variables Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Because I hope that PKGBUILD's which rely on variables described in man PKGBUILD must be successful buildable on your service. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/320952

[New: openFATE 320945] ppc64le on Debian-8.0, RHEL_7, xUbuntu_16.04
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 16 Jun '16

16 Jun '16

Feature added by: Daniel Black (grooverdan) Feature #320945, revision 1 Title: ppc64le on Debian-8.0, RHEL_7, xUbuntu_16.04 Buildservice: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Daniel Black (grooverdan) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Can build slaves for Debian-8, RHEL_7 and xUbuntu_16.04 be created for PPC64le (ppc64el on Debian/Ubuntu). The 64bit LE is a good target as IBM moved its POWER architecture to support little endian. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Power8 little endian is a supported Ubuntu (http://www.ubuntu.com/download/server/power8), Debian (https://www.debian.org/ports/#portlist-released) and Redhat (https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/ht…). Having OBS support ppc64el will assist distro users that want a later version of various packages ahead of what their distro provides. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/320945

[New: openFATE 315140] Kernel: CONFIG_TCP_MD5SIG needed for quagga
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 14 Jun '16

14 Jun '16

Feature added by: Marc Langer (marclanger) Feature #315140, revision 1 Title: Kernel: CONFIG_TCP_MD5SIG needed for quagga openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Marc Langer (marclanger) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Quagga bgpd allows the configuration of MD5 protected BGP sessions, but the kernel does not have this activated. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Our BGP peers require MD5 but the SuSE Kernel is compiled without CONFIG_TCP_MD5SIG. It takes a long time to find this issue because in the default configuration quagga is not logging properly that this option is missing in the kernel. Each time we have to compile an own kernel. Please activate this in future versions. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/315140

[openFATE 307884] Yafaray instead of Yafray for Blender

Feature added by: Rene Bernhard (rebe) Feature #307884, revision 1 Title: Yafaray instead of Yafray for Blender Package Wishlist: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Rene Bernhard (rebe) Description: Hello. As the Yafray render engine for Blender is not longer developed I apreciate if you would replace it with the Yafaray render engine in one of the next openSUSE versions. Or maybe it is possible to make a package for the repositories to download. Thank you very much for your efforts. Best regards rebe -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/307884
