[opensuse-packaging] strict-aliasing and dlsym
by Cristian Morales Vega 15 Aug '10

15 Aug '10

Hi, I'm getting "comp.c:42:3: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules" that translates to "I: Program is likely to break with new gcc. Try -fno-strict-aliasing. W: sipp strict-aliasing-punning comp.c:42, 46, 50" through post-build-checks. The thing is the offending code is "*(void **)(&comp_compress) = dlsym(handle, "comp_compress");" And the man page of dlsym explicitly says that is the correct way to do it: /* Writing: cosine = (double (*)(double)) dlsym(handle, "cos"); would seem more natural, but the C99 standard leaves casting from "void *" to a function pointer undefined. The assignment used below is the POSIX.1-2003 (Technical Corrigendum 1) workaround; see the Rationale for the POSIX specification of dlsym(). */ So, the question: could gcc -O2 really break that code? Or that's a false warning and I can be 100% safe ignoring it? Thanks. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] The S3QL package
by Nikolaus Rath 13 Aug '10

13 Aug '10

Hi, I am the upstream author of S3QL (http://code.google.com/p/s3ql/). If I interpret https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=s3ql correctly, then pbleser (pascal.bleser(a)opensuse.org) has recently created an S3QL package for opensuse. While I am generally quite happy about this, there are a few things that I would like to have addressed. I tried to mail Pascal about this, but I did not get a response. Since I'm not sure if he is actually the right guy to contact, I'm posting this here again. Hopefully someone will be able to help. Note that I am not familiar with OpenSUSE at all, so some questions may sound a bit naive to you :-). - I would really like the package description to include the development status as reported on the homepage and in the source tarball. S3QL is still in beta stage, and I would like to make this very clear in the package as well. Would it be possible to change the description? - Where will bugs reported against the package show up? If it's on an OpenSUSE bug tracker: is there a way to automatically subscribe me? - Is there something like a stable and unstable version of OpenSUSE? If so, where will the S3QL package be in? I would not feel very good about having a beta package in a stable distribution... - Could you provide some instructions on how to get and install the OpenSUSE S3QL package for users of the current stable OpenSUSE? Then I could add these to the S3QL Wiki. Thanks, -Nikolaus -- »Time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a Banana.« PGP fingerprint: 5B93 61F8 4EA2 E279 ABF6 02CF A9AD B7F8 AE4E 425C -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] Where to define some rpm macros needed by many packages?
by Vincent Untz 11 Aug '10

11 Aug '10

Hi, I'm facing three cases where many packages should do something in %post/%postun but usually don't do anything because it's some manual work, and I want to provide macros to make it easier to fix this. The three cases are: + when installing a .desktop file, update-desktop-database should be called + when installing an icon in the hicolor theme, gtk-update-icon-cache should be called + when installing some mime information in /usr/share/mime, update-mime-database should be called I could put macros for this in the respective packages (desktop-file-utils, gtk2 and shared-mime-info), but I'm not really sure it's good to force every package installing a .desktop to have a BuildRequires on desktop-file-utils... On the other hand, I don't feel those macros should live in the rpm package itself either. Any idea what would be the best solution? (Btw, the best long-term solution is some trigger in rpm when a file get installed in a directory, but I've been waiting for this for a long time and I don't see it moving...)

[opensuse-packaging] combine shell script and .spec file into one .spec file to do the whole job.

Hello, I need help to combine this shell script [1] and .spec file [2]into one .spec file to do the whole job and run from obs.

[opensuse-packaging] gnome-commander asking for gksu

Hi Not sure if i should bug this or not. A user on the forums <http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-help-here/applications/443578-gksu-p…> had an issue that the current gnome-commander build (for 11.3) asks for gksu rather than gnomesu. Of course a softlink to gnomesu is a solution, however looking at the source a simple search and replace of gksu for gnomesu is all that is needed.
