[opensuse-packaging] joomla for EDU-cd
by James Tremblay 01 Feb '08

01 Feb '08

Hey guys, i know you are all working hard already. But, might I ask if someone could help put a joomla package together for the edu-cd? some called "illusio" i believe has one that with a little dumbing down might just be easy enough for teachers to install. no offense to any teachers here, most of my colleges are science or math teachers first , IT geeks second. ;) already to busy to learn anything more than where is that 2k3 disk. -- James Tremblay Director of Technology Newmarket School District Newmarket NH 03857 "let's make a difference" http://en.opensuse.org/education --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] Shared Library Policy Questions
by JP Rosevear 31 Jan '08

31 Jan '08

goffice contains a shared library as well as shared files (glade files for UI elements exposed by the library) and plugins. Its install dirs use a versioned dir system so it is parallel installable. Questions: 1) As per exception #3 in the shlib policy the glade files could go in libgoffice-0_6-6 or in goffice-0_6. If the latter, I assume libgoffice-0_6-6 needs to explicity require goffice-0_6 2) Do plugins go in goffice-0_6-plugins or libgoffice-0_6-plugins? 3) Could the plugins be "Recommend"ed by libgoffice-0_6-6? Perhaps we should add an example with parallel installable versioning? -JP -- JP Rosevear <jpr(a)novell.com> Novell, Inc. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] mythtv packages
by James Tremblay 31 Jan '08

31 Jan '08

Hey everyone, I was wondering who is maintaining the Mythtv packages for gnome's software tools. I understand that the packages are UI independent but I have questions about the install process i.e. there didn't seem to be a "root" mythtv package like there is in search tool \ webpin. Any way thanks for the packages. P.S. is anyone interested in discussing a "homeserver" \ "Media center" build pattern? -- James Tremblay Director of Technology Newmarket School District Newmarket NH 03857 "let's make a difference" http://en.opensuse.org/education --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help(a)opensuse.org

by Denny Beyer 30 Jan '08

30 Jan '08

Hi there, i was wondering if someone build openjdk / jre packages successfully already? As they should have the 64bit java web plug-ins included, it would be nice to have them available ... also fro development of course. I've seen quite some activity on ubuntu / fedora. cheers, denny --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] New default warning for -Wall (-Wstrict-prototypes)
by Richard Guenther 29 Jan '08

29 Jan '08

We will include -Wstrict-prototypes in RPM_OPT_FLAGS via enabling it for -Wall soon, which will warn about non-prototypes like void foo(); which cause problems if foo is called before its definition is reached and arguments with default argument promotions applied do not match the argument types. For example void foo(); { .. foo(1.0); .. } void foo(float x) { ... } will call foo with a double argument. Note that void foo(); is not a valid prototype for a function with zero arguments in C, but void foo(void); is. The above case will probably cause a lot of extra warnings. Thanks, Richard. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] Black magic building Virtualbox?
by Claes Backstrom 29 Jan '08

29 Jan '08

Hi. I wonder if there is some black magix involved to build Virtualobx on x86_64. To my understanding it needs bin86 or dev86 to build but those packages don't exist as x86_64 packages. So how should this be handle in the build service? And what does this lines in the spec file do: # WARNING: This is not a comment, but the real command to repack souce: #%(sh %{_sourcedir}/%{name}-patch-source VirtualBox-%{version}_OSE.tar.bz2) It triggers an error for me.

Situation: i install new rpms in my repository-folder RPMS/i586 and update repo-data i use ftp to connect to the rpms. on first requests all is fine. sometimes i have to change some minimal things in spec or source. so i compile the rpm without increasing the realease and put it again in correct folder and update also again repo-data. now i get an error at retrieving this rpm files. Total download size: 26 M Downloading Packages: ftp://user:pass@server/package.rpm: [Errno 4] IOError: [Errno ftp error] Requested Range Not Satisfiable Trying other mirror. Error Downloading Packages: package: failure: package from server: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try. all my tries to avoid this were not succesful. i removed this rpm an created repo-date without it. but error occurs again if i create the repo with this package dont know what to do... ftp is correct, other files on same machine work. cant find software-error etc. ??

[opensuse-packaging] -Uvh different from -e followed by -ivh?
by Dan Stromberg 25 Jan '08

25 Jan '08

I have an rpm to maintain. Because it used to have some files that were owned by more than one package, I changed it so that the files would be installed under a second hierarchy, and copied to the original hierarchy via %post. However, now I'm finding that I can repeatably: 1) Install 3.1.0.0 of the rpm 2) -Uvh 3.1.0.3 of the rpm 3) The files under the original hierarchy disappear. The files under the secondary hierarchy become present. My %post that copies files from the secondary hierarchy to the original hierarchy doesn't seem to be getting run 4) -ivh 3.1.0.3 of the rpm 5) The files under the original hierarchy become present. It seems that my %post is getting run It seems like %post is only happening on -ivh, not on -Uvh, even though the maximum rpm book says that -Uvh is basically just a -e and -ivh. Has anyone seen anything like this before? Is there a fix? Thanks! --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help(a)opensuse.org
