[opensuse-packaging] Probable problem with %__make %{?jobs:-j%{jobs}}
by Dave Plater 27 Dec '09

27 Dec '09

Hi, with the above line added to a spec file rpmbuild causes a kernel panic on my 1 gig ram celeron E1200 x86_64 system. Seeing that the same spec file is packaged in the source rpm isn't this a potential problem and I've already had a submit to my graphics blender project with this added and sent it to factory. I've added a "%if 0%{?opensuse_bs}" conditional to the spec file but I haven't tried a local osc build in case of another kernel panic. Does the conditional prevent a parallel build on … [View More]

Hello, what is the policy regarding setgid binaries in Contrib? Does http://en.opensuse.org/Packaging/Security_Policies#Setuid_Binaries apply and do I need to get a review before I can submit a package containing a setgid binary to Contrib?

[opensuse-packaging] RPM_OPT_FLAGS, stripping, and debug_package in OpenSuSE 11.2
by Adam Rosenstein 23 Dec '09

23 Dec '09

Just a quick question about the official 11.2 distribution packaging process: What is RPM_OPT_FLAGS set to when the official RPMs are built? I noticed that if I download gzip-1.3.12-100.4.src.rpm and do rpmbuild -ba I don't get stripped binaries, yet the officially released x86_64 rpms have stripped binaries. I also notice there is no %debug_package macro, yet there is a gzip-debuginfo rpm available. How are these built for the official opensuse release? Just curious. Adam Rosenstein … [View More]

by Wolfgang Rosenauer 20 Dec '09

20 Dec '09

Hi, I'm currently investigating an interesting warning I get in one of my packages.

[opensuse-packaging] What does rpm macro %insserv_cleanup do
by Richard Bos 14 Dec '09

14 Dec '09

Summary: the rpm macro %insserv_cleanup expands to 'sbin/insserv etc/init.d' what looks not good. Is this correct or not? More details: When packaging kolab without the macro %insserv_cleanup, I get the following warning: RPMLINT report: =============== kolab.noarch: W: postun-without-%insserv_cleanup /etc/init.d/kolab kolab.noarch: W: postun-without-%insserv_cleanup /etc/init.d/kolabd The package doesn't have a %insserv_cleanup call in %postun Following the suse convention I add the … [View More]

by Schlomo Schapiro 14 Dec '09

14 Dec '09

Hi, I submitted a sr for an updated rear package to openSUSE:11.2:Update in the hope to get it into the Update repo. 1) Is this the correct process for updates? 2) Whom to bug if I get no response? How long should I wait for a response? Regards, Schlomo PS: Yes, I know I did it over the weekend and probably nobody looked into it yet.

Hi, I stumbled across the %debug_package issue a few times now.
