[opensuse-gnome] How to help out with GNOME:Factory:Next
by Magnus Boman 29 Dec '08

29 Dec '08

Hello, GNOME:Factory:Next is where we build the latest version of GNOME for both Factory and openSUSE 11.1. Here are some quick instruction on how to setup your environment if you want to help out with package updates; I will assume that you already have osc installed. All instances of $USER below should be replaced with your OBS login id. All instances of $PACKAGE below should be replaced with the package you are/want to work on. 1. Pull down the osc gnome plugins[1] git clone http://www.vuntz.net/git/osc-plugins.git/ 2. Copy the osc gnome plugin to your osc plugin directory mkdir -p ~/.osc-plugins/ && cp osc-plugins/obs-dissector/osc-gnome.py ~/.osc-plugins/ 3. Create a project in your home called "branches:GNOME:Factory:Next" and add some repositories to build against; osc meta prj -e home:$USER:branches:GNOME:Factory:Next 3.1 Make sure your repositories looks like this (also, that it's not commented out with the  tags) <repository name="openSUSE_11.1"> <path project="GNOME:Factory:Next" repository="openSUSE_11.1"/> <path project="openSUSE:11.1" repository="standard"/> <arch>x86_64</arch> <arch>i586</arch> </repository> <repository name="openSUSE_Factory"> <path project="GNOME:Factory:Next" repository="openSUSE_Factory"/> <path project="openSUSE:Factory" repository="standard"/> <arch>x86_64</arch> <arch>i586</arch> </repository> You should now be able to start updating packages in G:F:N. The following command will list all packages in need of an update; osc gnome t --xr --xs To start updating a package from the list, use; osc linkpac GNOME:Factory:Next $PACKAGE home: $USER:branches:GNOME:Factory:Next && osc gnome up $PACKAGE --project=GNOME:Factory:Next Make changes as required, then commit to your branch (osc co). Once it builds successfully, use the following to create a request for inclusion in G:F:N; osc submitreq create -m "Description of the changes you made" --nodevelproject Don't forget to explore other capabilities[2] of 'osc gnome' as well :-) Happy updating!! Cheers, Magnus [1] http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/OSC_plugins [2] http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/OscGnome -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] Searching for GNOME-Editor in Weekly News
by Sascha 'saigkill' Manns 29 Dec '08

29 Dec '08

Hello Friends, i'm Sascha Manns from the Weekly News. In the last issues we had the Section "New/Updated Applications" in the Weekly News. We plan to have one KDE and one GNOME Program and one other. Me myself works in the KDE Ground and OBS. For GNOME i have an RSS-Feed (Gnomefiles.org) But if the Feed info me for an new/updated Application, this not means, that the OBS hosted this Version. My wish is to find an GNOME-Programmer for OBS, who writes regularly for the Weekly News Section. Is it possible for you, to write regularly one Article per Issue about an new GNOME-Program in OBS? You can see new Programs quicker than me :-) -- Sincereley yours Sascha Manns openSUSE Marketing Team (Weekly News) openSUSE Build Service Web: http://saschamanns.gulli.to Blog: http://lizards.opensuse.org/author/saigkill -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] openSUSE-GNOME Bug Day Proposal
by Christopher Hobbs 22 Dec '08

22 Dec '08

Greetings! I'm a little late getting this message out, so lets hope you all haven't slipped away for holiday festivities yet! In the last GNOME Team meeting, we discussed having a bug triage event on 09 JAN 2009 lasting the majority of the day. We're looking to close up as many bugs in 11.0 as we can and move those that are tagged 'upstream' on their way. We'll discuss the BugDay in our next meeting. Should we have the event, I'll be using Gobby again to coordinate triage assignment. Feel free to drop into #openSUSE-GNOME on Freenode, or reply to me directly if you have any questions. Thank you for your time! I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday! cmh -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] Computer > Install Software
by Justin Haygood 20 Dec '08

20 Dec '08

Any plans to replace that to point to PackageKit's "Add/Remove Software" as opposed to YaST? It would be more user friendly in my opinion. (And they both use zypp in the backend anyway) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] Moving stuff to Contrib
by Vincent Untz 12 Dec '08

12 Dec '08

So, as people subscribed to opensuse-contrib, the work on Contrib has started. If people want to start moving packages there, it's just a simple build service submission to openSUSE:Factory:Contrib. If for some packages, you'd like to have some collective maintainership (which is not incompatible with some more individual maintainership, btw), we can possibly create GNOME:Factory:Contrib which would be the devel project for some packages.
