[opensuse-packaging] To %make_install or to %makeinstall (spec-cleaner)
by Joop Boonen 05 Sep '12

05 Sep '12

Hi all, I have been using spec cleaner for while. What I notice it that it uses macro %make_install instead of %makeinstall. Both macros are OK for openSUSE but the first one breaks the build for SLE. <quote> + %make_install /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.59594: line 45: fg: no job control </quote> I wonder if this should be fixed, in either spec-cleaner (use%makeinstall in stead of %make_install) or in the buildserver (add macro %make_install for SLE)? Regards, Joop.

[opensuse-packaging] OCaml help please
by Robert Schweikert 20 Aug '12

20 Aug '12

Probably have mostly the same people on the obs list and the packaging list, but never the less I will try my luck here as well. I have a couple of requests/questions in "cleaning up" OCaml related packages and a problem. 1.) Since we have top level devel:languages:ocaml project can we please move everything that is ocaml related and maintained devel:languages:misc into the ocaml project? 2.) Do we have anyone that is really interested in OCaml or do we just have what we have because other projects/packages depend on the few packages we do have? in d:l:ocaml the ocaml package is a link to the package in Factory. The devel project for factory is d:l:misc. Because of local mods in d:l:ocaml the link is busted due to merge conflicts. This breaks other packages in d:l:ocaml. I have no idea how to fix this as every time I try to touch any of these packages to get something fixed I get a stupid: buildinfo is broken... it says: type of message. This is of course complete crap as it prevents a person trying to fix something from fixing it. In addition to the gripes above I have a problem that I am stuck on and could also use some help with. I am trying to build ocamlnet which depends on pcre. The build process failes with this error: ocamlfind ocamlc -g -I ../../src/netstring -package "unix" -custom -o ocamlrpcgen -package unix,netstring \ rpc_generator.cma main.cmo -linkpkg /usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.6/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lpcre_stubs collect2: ld returned 1 exit status File "_none_", line 1, characters 0-1: Error: Error while building custom runtime system make[1]: *** [ocamlrpcgen] Error 2 Knowing nothing about OCaml build and link processes I can only infer things. Obviously the process calls ld to link a binary and passes -lpcre_stubs, this would require the presence of libpcre_stubs.so somewhere in the default search directories of ld. However, the package ocaml-pcre does not provide this, it provides a dllpcre_stubs.so file in a none-standard location (%{_libdir}/ocaml/stublibs). Should ocaml-pcre create and provide a link %{_libdir}/libpcre_stubs.so to {_libdir}/ocaml/stublibs/dllpcre_stubs.so, or maybe a link in %{_libdir}/ocaml/stublibs and then a -L argument on the link line? Or is there some trick that ocamlfind is supposed to play for me? Help is as always appreciated.

[opensuse-packaging] gnome-maintainers group now maintainer of several packages
by Vincent Untz 29 Jun '12

29 Jun '12

Hi, The GNOME team is slowly moving towards workflows centered around the gnome-maintainers group in OBS. This group is made of people we trust to be able to properly deal with GNOME-related packages. One step I made today is to add gnome-maintainers with the maintainer role to the metadata of various packages, to enable any of the GNOME maintainers to accept changes for those packages. So don't be surprised about the change :-) In addition, I also added gnome-maintainers with the reviewer role for packages that, as far as I know, are 100% maintained by the GNOME team. This matches the workflow used by the team where we prefer to have a second pair of eyes review the changes before accepting sr. I specifically didn't do this changes for packages that are also updated by other people. Packages were gnome-maintainers was added as just maintainer: Base:System/polkit X11:common:Factory/poppler X11:common:Factory/poppler-data multimedia:libs/gnonlin multimedia:libs/gst-rtsp multimedia:libs/gstreamer multimedia:libs/gstreamer-0_10 multimedia:libs/gstreamer-0_10-doc multimedia:libs/gstreamer-0_10-plugins-bad multimedia:libs/gstreamer-0_10-plugins-base multimedia:libs/gstreamer-0_10-plugins-gl multimedia:libs/gstreamer-0_10-plugins-good multimedia:libs/gstreamer-0_10-plugins-ugly multimedia:libs/gstreamer-plugins-bad multimedia:libs/gstreamer-plugins-base multimedia:libs/gstreamer-plugins-good multimedia:libs/gstreamer-plugins-ugly multimedia:libs/orc Packages were gnome-maintainers was added as maintainer and reviewer: Base:System/udisks Base:System/udisks2 Base:System/upower M17N:fonts/cantarell-fonts X11:common:Factory/devilspie X11:common:Factory/libgxps X11:common:Factory/libspectre X11:common:Factory/media-player-info X11:common:Factory/shared-color-profiles X11:common:Factory/shared-color-targets YaST:Head/yast2-control-center-gnome devel:languages:python/python-cairo devel:languages:python/python-gnome devel:languages:python/python-gnome-extras devel:languages:python/python-gobject devel:languages:python/python-gobject2 devel:languages:python/python-goocanvas devel:languages:python/python-gstreamer-0_10 devel:languages:python/python-gtk devel:languages:python/python-gtkglext devel:languages:python/python-gtksourceview devel:languages:python/python-notify devel:languages:python/python-orbit devel:languages:python/python-webkitgtk devel:languages:python/python3-cairo hardware/libgusb (there might be a few more packages where we do a similar change, once we realized they were not on our initial list ;-)) Cheers, Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] Anyone interested in sawfish?
by Vincent Untz 27 Jun '12

27 Jun '12

Hi, Is there anyone interested in maintaining packages for the sawfish window manager? (http://sawfish.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page) We have packages in Contrib for it (sawfish + librep and rep-gtk, that are dependencies). Ideally, we'd move them to Factory, via X11:windowmanagers. But I'm not sure anyone in the GNOME team would be able to correctly maintain it (given that we wouldn't use it), and the fact that it'll be in X11:windowmanagers won't help for the GNOME team. So if someone wants to keep sawfish, please raise your hand. Otherwise, we'll just drop it, I guess.

[opensuse-packaging] Speed up packging with parallel gzip, xz, bzip2, lzma
by Petr Mladek 27 Jun '12

27 Jun '12

Hi, today someone pointed out that packing RPMS might take longer time than a real build, see http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice/2012-June/034161.html https://plus.google.com/101094190333184858950/posts/D9x87DkdceD We could get a significant speedup by parallel versions of compression tools: http://www.zlib.net/pigz/ http://compression.ca/pbzip2/ http://jnovy.fedorapeople.org/pxz/ I probably wont have time to play with it anytime soon. Anyway, I wanted to share it here. Maybe, someone else might be interested. Hackweek is getting close, ...

[opensuse-packaging] Fallen into a Java rat hole and need some help
by Robert Schweikert 27 Jun '12

27 Jun '12

Hi, Working on dependencies to build CloudStack. One of the packages needs ws-commons-util which already exists in network:/cluster:/xtreemos. ws-commons-util requires java-javadoc and some package fulfills this requirement as it builds just fine on openSUSE. However, on SLE nothing provides java-javadoc and the build fails. How can I figure out what package provides java-javadoc On my openSUSE 12.1 system -> rpm -qf /usr/bin/javadoc file /usr/bin/javadoc is not owned by any package OBS search for java-javadoc turns up nothing either. I took a look at the spec file for openjdk to no avail. I am out of ideas of places to look and could use some help.
