[Bug 1190738] New: kernel-default-base does not contain kernel changelog

https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1190738 Bug ID: 1190738 Summary: kernel-default-base does not contain kernel changelog Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel Assignee: kernel-bugs@opensuse.org Reporter: fvogt@suse.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de CC: jeos-internal@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- kernel-default-base is built from a separate set of .spec and .changes files, making use of the kernel-subpackage facilities. This however means that the changelog of the original kernel packages (kernel-default, -vanilla, etc.) does not end up in the changelog of kernel-default-base. This is especially visible in updates, which only change the binary content and the version number in an unobvious way. There is no mention of any relevant fixed bugs (bsc#, CVE-). It would be very useful to include the kernel changelog in the kernel-default-base package. I don't think it can (or should) be interleaved with the subpackage .changes file, but it could be included as file. The target systems usually have excludedocs enabled though, so marking the file as %doc means it won't get installed. That makes it more complex and annoying... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

perhaps build it again together with the regular kernel set?
Well the way we are building kernel-default-base right now is definitely an improvement for the JeOS team. I don't think this issue is critical enough to go back to being build together with the regular kernel. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Containing the kernel changelog in the package file sounds feasible. I wanted to put the old changelog from the previous SP into a file instead of keeping the full log, in anyway, and it will follow in that line. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
