[opensuse-packaging] Hello...
by Erico Mendonca 11 Oct '12

11 Oct '12

Hello everybody... Sorry to introduce myself with a request... I'm one of the maintainers of pw3270, a 3270 GTK terminal. It's fairly stable and has quite a lot of users, so I'm looking to get it evaluated and possibly considered for inclusion on the main openSUSE branch. Does anyone know who I should contact about this? I don't want to go over anybody, but I have an unopened request that's been on the queue for 8 weeks now at the build service... :) Erico Mendonça Dedicated Support Engineer +55 (61) 9115-3256 +55 (61) 8594-9557 +55 (11) 3345-3900 Av.

Hi, I'm wondering if it would be possible to re-enable SLE_11_SP2 for the virtualbox package in project Virtualization.

[opensuse-packaging] server:http/nginx
by Ammler 11 Oct '12

11 Oct '12

Hello I would like to suggest renaming of the nginx packages since those are in factory and therefore already support native support of maintaining different versions. Having versions in package name gets annoying troubles like - no automatic update - runlevel gone - config file gone There is no known reason to keep different versions. Is there? I would therefor suggest to rename - current nginx-1.2 to nginx and link it from factory as devel project - current nginx-1.3 to nginx-dev (not devel) to keep the development version for some people which like the experimtal stuff, maybe create a new project server:http:unstable and keep nginx branch there instead since nginx is in factory, there is no need to keep legacy versions, imo, but still for those you could create copy of nginx to nginx-<version> if nessesary Please consider this change, it would make the live of sysops and maintainer easier.

[opensuse-packaging] Problem with vala code
by Guido Berhoerster 08 Oct '12

08 Oct '12

Could anyone familiar with vala help me with the following problem? I have a package (X11:xfce/midori) with vala code that looks as follows: uint64 total_size = download.total_size, current_size = download.current_size; [...] download.set_data<uint64> ("last-size", current_size); (download is an instance of a GObjetct) and vala translates this into the following C code: guint64 current_size; [...] guint64 _tmp111_; [...] _tmp111_ = current_size; g_object_set_data_full ((GObject*) _tmp110_, "last-size", _tmp111_, NULL); This is obviously broken on architectures with pointer size < 8 bytes and triggers a brp check breaking the build. Now I'm not sure whether this is a bug in vala or the above code, is it possible to force vala to heap-allocate a uint64 variable and to correctly pass a pointer here?

[opensuse-packaging] Question about 'osc mr'
by Christian Trippe 07 Oct '12

07 Oct '12

Hi, I wanted to provide updates for two different packages (kdebase4-workspace and kdepim4) for 12.2 and followed http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Package_maintenance After having one package ready I wanted to submit this with 'osc mr' from the local working directory of kdebase4-workspace. It turned out that also the kdepim4 package was submitted back, see https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/137316 So is it correct that 'osc mr' always submits all branched packages back? This might be a useful feature to submit, e.g. an update of KDE SC, but I am not sure if this is a good default. And I could not figure out how to submit only one of the branched packages back with 'osc mr' Christian -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] Download BIG data in %post script. What do you think?
by Cristian Morales Vega 05 Oct '12

05 Oct '12

I got this https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/135388 What do you think? It actually solves a real problem: the model of having a copy of everything in our servers doesn't scale. Specially with big game data. Problems I can think of: - You don't have control over the external servers. Somebody could modify the files there add hack into users machines. - No information about the files is stored in the RPM database. It's impossible to verify the integrity of the installed package. - It just looks bad, ugly and fragile. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner(a)opensuse.org
