[opensuse-kde] Packaging kaffeine pre3
Hey Team, I was reading the last meeting transcript and noticed you guys haven't seen my submit requests (I was unable to attend). Anyways, I keep getting denied by coolo anyways. Could someone please explain how to add the .changes file. The original package I used had changelog as part of the .spec. So I looked at another package and noticed that the changelog was moved to a .changes file. So I did that. Apparently, I destroyed it? So I have no clue how to add the .changes file to the package even though it is a part of my build project. My latest denied request is #34343 bensteinm@bensteinm08:~/tmp
osc rq show 34343 Request #34343:
submit: home:benstein/kaffeine(r10) -> KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop/kaffeine Message: Version change to pre3 from pre2. Added a patch to support strict gcc compiler. Removed an outdated patch.

Firstly, don't take it personally, we've all had our knuckles rapped like this ;). Secondly, did you osc branch to create the package in your home directory that you are working on? That way you work incrementally on a fork of the official package and all of its files, so you don't risk accidentally deleting stuff by recreating a package or replacing it with a different impl of the package copied from another source. If you do need to create a .changes file, osc vc <packagename>.changes will start a new .changes with the correct formatting. Will

Thanks for the hints. I didn't take anything personally. After hanging out with the community these past 10 years I developed a thick skin. I obviously started with a different implementation of the package. My next question would be; How do I get all the old changes in to the new .changes? If I properly branch, do I just append my new entry? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org

Actually, after branching everything makes sense. Thanks for your help. -- Marc Benstein -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org
