[opensuse-packaging] %suse_update_desktop_file removing X-* categories
by Guido Berhoerster 21 Dec '10

21 Dec '10

Why does /usr/lib/rpm/map-desktop-category.sh even remove X-* categories not explicitly listed? The freedesktop.org menu spec explicitly permits prefixed extension categories and some applications rely on them. E.g. Xfce uses X-XfceSettingsDialog in order to mark desktop files to be displayed in its settings dialog and %suse_update_desktop_file breaks this. -- Guido Berhoerster -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] file list check enabled again
by Stephan Kulow 20 Dec '10

20 Dec '10

Hi, Ludwig re-enabled the check if a package owns all its directories and we found quite a number of packages failing because of this (the check was disabled between may and november, we used to have it before). I collected the affected packages in my branch project, so you can check out https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor?project=home%3Acoolo%3Abranches%… The check is currently re-disabled in factory, but creates a warning that the check is re-re-enabled on december 8th, so please help out.

[opensuse-packaging] VBoxGuestAdditions.iso in openSUSE:Factory
by Michal Šebeň 20 Dec '10

20 Dec '10

Hi all, after virtualbox licensing change, I received (again) requests to include VBoxGuestAdditions.iso (now fully open sourced) to our virtualbox package - this iso (~35MB) contains scripts, windows and linux binaries for additional features on virtualbox guests, problem is that we can't prepare this ISO in our buildservice (because we can't build windows binaries) so we have to grab prepared ISO by oracle team from http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/ and put it to the rpm subpackage what do you think about this step ? is it a standard way ? note: user could always download VBoxGuestAdditions.iso using menu in GUI (with 2-clicks) bye -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] A strange requirement of rosegarden question.
by Dave Plater 20 Dec '10

20 Dec '10

I've installed 11.3 on an acer aspire one and it's given me a chance to check some packages in multimedia:apps, rosegarden from multimedia:apps wouldn't install (I've specified only mmapps and libs repos) due to a requirement for /usr/bin/ruby I actively maintain rosegarden and thought it strange so I looked at the packages requirements in the build service web-ui and no reference to ruby at all. How can I fix this in my package or could this be an installation system bug?

[opensuse-packaging] jpeg packaging
by Petr Gajdos 15 Dec '10

15 Dec '10

Hi list, I would like to hear your opinion about future jpeg packaging. I am asked to switch back to jpeg6 in Factory. Nowadays we have following packages in graphics project: * libjpeg6 (contains only library) * libjpeg7 (contains only library) * jpeg (contains doc files and bin tools) -> libjpeg8 (contains library) -> libjpeg-devel (contains *.h and *.so) I should do full-fledged jpeg 6 package as jpeg (8) is and we should have it in parallel if I understend correctly (not sure about jpeg 7 package). I would appreciate any advice, here is a first thought proposal: * jpeg6 (contains doc files and bin tools) provides: jpeg, obsoletes: jpeg, conflicts: jpeg8 -> libjpeg6 (contains library) -> libjpeg6-devel (contains development files) provides: jpeg-devel, obsoletes: jpeg-devel, conflicts: jpeg8-devel * jpeg8 (contains doc files and bin tools) conflicts: jpeg6 -> libjpeg8 (contains library) -> libjpeg8-devel (contains development files) conflicts: jpeg6-devel Requires should stay same modulo major version. Other possibility is to let particular project decide, which jpeg should be default (similarly to libpng12,14 in 11.3). Both libjpeg{6,8}-devel would provide jpeg-devel and conflict with otherproviders(jpeg-devel) and similarly for jpeg{6,8}. Petr
