[opensuse-packaging] Newbie help with 'build', please
by Jules Colding 15 Mar '07

15 Mar '07

Hi, I'm trying to create an rpm(*) with the build script on OpenSUSE 10.2. I've tried to follow the build tutorial to the letter: 1) BUILD_RPMS points to a directory where all of the OpenSUSE 10.2 rpms are located (/media/dvd/suse). 2) This tarball: http://www.omesc.com/content/downloads/dist/testing/evolution-brutus-1.1.25… has been extracted to a directory. 3) root is trying to build the rpms using the 'build' script in the directory created in step 2. 4) 'build' complains about nothing provides evolution-data-server-devel. The e-d-s-devel rpm is present in "$BUILD_RPMS/i586/". The rpm is owned by "root.root" and is world readable. I've appended the output from 'build' below. Any ideas? Thanks a lot in advance, jules (*) evolution-brutus - an alternative to evolution-exchange ################## build output ################### suse-1:/home/colding/suse_build/evolution-brutus-1.1.25.1 # build ./evolution-brutus.spec logging output to /var/tmp/build-root/.build.log... suse-1 started "build evolution-brutus.spec" at Wed Mar 14 16:33:31 CET 2007.

[opensuse-packaging] new QA checks in Autobuild: gconf scriptlets, fixed icon check
by Stanislav Brabec 12 Mar '07

12 Mar '07

Hallo. I wrote a new check for Autobuild and fixed icon check. If your package will fails due to these checks: Icon check: - It is now able to find icons/hicolor icons and it is no more to symlink them. - It is now not able to find icons/crystalsvg and icons/gnome icons for system wide desktop files and it will fail for them. https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=248676 Possible fixes: - Add OnlyShowIn=KDE (to allow icons/crystalsvg only path) or OnlyShowIn=GNOME (to allow icons/gnome only path) and report this issue upstream. - Install or symlink icon to publicly visible "hicolor" or "pixmaps" path and report this issue upstream. GConf scriptlet check: Not using new scriptlets (and especially new PreReq) is a Blocker. https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=235896 To fix your package, you have to follow these instructions (see /etc/rpm/macros.gconf2 from gconf2 package): Preamble: %gconf_schemas_prereq %install ... %find_gconf_schemas or %def_gconf_schemas subpackage1 %add_gconf_schemas schemas_name1 %add_gconf_schemas schemas_name2 %def_gconf_schemas subpackage2 %add_gconf_schemas schemas_name3 %add_gconf_schemas schemas_name4 %end_gconf_schemas schemas names are without path and suffix %pre -f %{name}.schemas_pre %preun -f %{name}.schemas_preun %posttrans -f %{name}.schemas_posttrans %files -f %{name}.schemas_list or %files -f subpackage.schemas_list You don't have to list schemas files in the file list, it is done automatically for you. In case of more -f needed for one %files: %install ... %find_gconf_schemas %find_lang %{name} cat %{name}.schemas_list %{name}.lang >%{name}.lst %files -f %{name}.lst -- Best Regards / S pozdravem, Stanislav Brabec software developer --------------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX, s. r. o. e-mail: sbrabec(a)suse.cz Lihovarská 1060/12 tel: +420 284 028 966 190 00 Praha 9 fax: +420 284 028 951 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] application for mime type - priority
by Pavel Nemec 12 Mar '07

12 Mar '07

Hi, i need to figure out how to set priority for mime type. So when two application will associate same mime type i can set which application will be default. I find out that for GNOME there is a file /etc/opt/gnome/gnome-defaults.conf which contains such settings. This file is latter processed by script /sbin/conf.d/SuSEconfig.gnome-vfs2 which throw out missed apps and so on. So if i am right everything i need is add my application to [1] and run SUSEconfig.gnome-vfs Q1: how is right way to edit this file? or just call cat myconfig.desktp >>[1] ? For KDE i found that there is "extension" [2]: InitialPreference=X (which is forbidden by freedesktop [3]) This option is used in /opt/kde3/share realm. Q2: So do i need install two destkop file one in /usr/share/application and second(with additional option InitialPreference) in /opt/kde3/... Thanks Pavel [1] - /etc/opt/gnome/gnome-defaults.conf [2] - http://docs.kde.org/cgi-bin/desktopdig/search.cgi?show=development/en/kdeba… [3] - http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-1.0.… P.S: relation bug #P.S. this is 210967 -- Pavel Nemec Software Engineer --------------------------------------------------------------------- SuSE CR, s.r.o. e-mail: pnemec(a)suse.cz Lihovarska 1060/12 tel:+420 284 028 981 190 00 Praha 9 fax:+420 296 542 374 Ceska republika http://www.suse.cz

[opensuse-packaging] VDR-1.4.6 packages break additional addons
by Manfred Hollstein 10 Mar '07

10 Mar '07

Hi there, I just downloaded the latest vdr-1.4.6 packages for 10.0 and 10.1 (i586 and x86_64), rebuilt my additional addons (-osdteletext and -plugins built agains the fully functional libxine1, fwiw), updated everything and tried to start vdr once again, but it failed complaining that it didn't find the configured plugins "osdteletext" and "xine". Looking inside the vdr-1.4.6 package reveals that, while the package's version number has been bumped to 1.4.6, the version number of the included software appears to be stuck at 1.4.5: rpm -qp vdr-1.4.6-2.1.x86_64.rpm -l | fgrep 1.4 /usr/lib64/vdr/libvdr-hello.so.1.4.5 /usr/lib64/vdr/libvdr-osddemo.so.1.4.5 /usr/lib64/vdr/libvdr-skincurses.so.1.4.5 /usr/lib64/vdr/libvdr-sky.so.1.4.5 /usr/lib64/vdr/libvdr-status.so.1.4.5 /usr/lib64/vdr/libvdr-svccli.so.1.4.5 /usr/lib64/vdr/libvdr-svcsvr.so.1.4.5 /usr/lib64/vdr/libvdr-svdrpdemo.so.1.4.5 Hmmm, I guess this is an oversight and should be fixed, no? Whoever maintains the VDR package at repositories/vdr, could you please fix this? TIA, cheers. l8er manfred --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] New Functionality: Ports for SuSEfirewall added via packages
by Lukas Ocilka 05 Mar '07

05 Mar '07

Hi, A new functionality "Ports for SuSEfirewall added via packages" (FATE #300687) has been added to YaST in openSUSE 10.3. Of course, this functionality needed to be implemented in SuSEfirewall2 first (since openSUSE 10.2 thanks to Ludwig). So what is it all about and why am I writing about it to this mailing-list? In older versions of YaST Firewall, there was a hard-coded list of so called "Known Services" (e.g., Samba Server or DNS Server) with defined ports to be open in firewall but this list didn't reflect the current state of installed packages and it was a pain to add a new service there. What the current solution offers? * Only installed services are offered in YaST Firewall to be open. * Abstraction layer for SuSEfirewall2 that increases the security. * Solved conflicting services - lighthttpd vs. apache2, nfs vs. nis. * No need for hard-coded and not-maintained static list. More detailed information: http://en.opensuse.org/SuSEfirewall2/Service_Definitions_Added_via_Packages Some of you have been already assigned to a bugzilla enhancement, that requests adding such configuration file into your packages and more will probably come. PS: Just a small change for using these services in YaST. Using the hard-coded list is an obsolete functionality but still remains the same, for using the new definition of services, you need to identify the service by "service:${service-id}".
