[opensuse-packaging] python-bindings ?
by Greg Freemyer 10 Sep '12

10 Sep '12

All, I was looking at the upstream sample specfile for one of my packages (libewf) and it has a python bindings sub-package that I don't currently have. The sample has: %files python %defattr(644,root,root,755) %doc AUTHORS COPYING NEWS README %{_libdir}/python*/site-packages/*.la %{_libdir}/python*/site-packages/*.so I don't think I've ever packaged a .la file, so it seems I should exclude that. Is that right? Greg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] Problem building an appliance
by Ilya Chernykh 07 Sep '12

07 Sep '12

When trying to build an appliance in Suse Studio I receive the following message: === Nothing provides package libxine1-codecs which is needed by package providing libxine1-codecs Remove providing libxine1-codecs === The entire "providing libxine1-codecs" is bold as a package name. When I click to remove it does nothing and the error message remains. No selected package has "xine" in name. I wonder what should I do to bypass this error. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] Architecture question (noarch or i586/x86_64?)
by Karl Ove Hufthammer 06 Sep '12

06 Sep '12

Dear list members, I’m creating my first package, but I’m not sure if it should be considered noarch or i586/x86_64, and the documentation varies on the exact definition of noarch. Basically, my package *is* architecture-neutral, as the exact same package should work on all architectures, without any need for recompiling. Some features of this package: – Contains no binary (compiled) executable files. – Does contain a no-binary executable file – a shell script, which *uses* other binaries, like grep and awk and coreutils stuff. – Contains *data* files that are ‘built’. So, should it be considered noarch (rpmlint thinks so) or i586/x86_64? This is the package (and I’d appreciate any comments, as this is my first package): https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=ordbanken&project=home%3Ahu… -- Karl Ove Hufthammer http://huftis.org/ Jabber: karl(a)huftis.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner(a)opensuse.org

Hi, I am trying to use rc* symlink for systemd services as outlined in <http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2012-07/msg00066.html> for Factory builds rctargets="shorewall shorewall-lite shorewall6 shorewall6-lite" for i in $rctargets; do %if 0%{?suse_version} > 1220 ln -sf /sbin/service %buildroot%_sbindir/rc${i} %else ln -sf %_initddir/${i} %buildroot%_sbindir/rc${i} %endif done but I am getting these warnings " shorewall6-lite.noarch: W: dangling-symlink /usr/sbin/rcshorewall6-lite /sbin/service horewall6.noarch: W: dangling-symlink /usr/sbin/rcshorewall6 /sbin/service shorewall.noarch: W: dangling-symlink /usr/sbin/rcshorewall /sbin/service shorewall-lite.noarch: W: dangling-symlink /usr/sbin/rcshorewall-lite /sbin/service The target of the symbolic link does not exist within this package or its file based dependencies.

[opensuse-packaging] spec-cleaner breaking SLES build compatibility?
by Greg Freemyer 05 Sep '12

05 Sep '12

All, I noticed that security:srm was failing to build for OS 12.2. As part of doing the trivial clean up to make it work I ran spec-cleaner. It made this change in the install section: -make DESTDIR=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT install +%make_install Now srm in my home project no longer builds for SLES. The relevant error is "line 23: fg: no job control" Is that expected? Should I worry that in fixing OS 12.2 to build I broke SLES? My version of the project is at: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=srm&project=home%3Agregfree… Greg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner(a)opensuse.org

[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)?

[opensuse-packaging] Changes in the openSUSE Review team
by Andreas Jaeger 01 Sep '12

01 Sep '12

The review of packages to openSUSE Factory and the released openSUSE distributions have been done in the past by an SUSE internal team. Sascha Peilicke, who's currently on paternal leave, did the vast majority of reviews in the past months. We have now properly formed a review team and started discussing our guidelines and best practices. We created a couple of wiki pages to describe what we are doing (use http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Factory_submissions) If you like to reach the review team directly, please send an email to review(a)opensuse.org. In general, policy discussions and changes will happen on the opensuse-packaging mailing list. The team currently consists of Andreas Jaeger, Berthold Gunreben, Craig Gardner, Dominique Leuenberger, Lars Vogdt, Marcus Rückert, Michal Vyskocil, Rüdiger Oertel, Sascha Peilicke. We'd like to grow the team slowly over time with packagers that have shown good review and packaging skills. Our goal is to document our guidelines - and do a good review to improve the quality of openSUSE's packages. If we err, please tell us - we cannot know everything and might sometimes be too cautious if we do not understand what and why something gets changed.

[opensuse-packaging] updating desktop files?
by Greg Freemyer 01 Sep '12

01 Sep '12

All, Someone packaging a SLES version of httrack advised this should work in the specfile without patching the code: %suse_update_desktop_file WebHTTrack-Websites Network WebBrowser %suse_update_desktop_file WebHTTrack Network WebBrowser httrack in the security repo currently has the below patch instead. When I try the above in the httrack version in my home project (home:gregfreemyer:Tools-for-forensic-boot-cd), it fails to build. Is there an openSUSE way to handle this in the specfile and not with a patch? ============ --- html/server/div/WebHTTrack.desktop 2011-07-16 20:07:20.000000000 -0500 +++ html/server/div/WebHTTrack.desktop.orig 2011-07-16 20:03:59.000000000 -0500 @@ -1,9 +1,9 @@ [Desktop Entry] Version=1.0 Type=Application -Categories=Network; +Categories=Network;WebBrowser; Terminal=false Name=WebHTTrack Website Copier Comment=Copy websites to your computer Exec=webhttrack -Icon=/usr/share/httrack/icons/webhttrack.xpm +Icon=webhttrack --- html/server/div/WebHTTrack-Websites.desktop 2011-07-16 20:02:26.000000000 -0500 +++ html/server/div/WebHTTrack-Websites.desktop.orig 2011-07-16 20:04:28.000000000 -0500 @@ -1,9 +1,9 @@ [Desktop Entry] Version=1.0 Type=Application -Categories=Network; +Categories=Network;WebBrowser; Terminal=false Name=Browse Mirrored Websites Comment=Browse Websites Mirrored by WebHTTrack Exec=webhttrack browse -Icon=/usr/share/httrack/icons/webhttrack.xpm +Icon=webhttrack Greg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner(a)opensuse.org
