[opensuse-packaging] X11:Cinnamon is active again!
by Marguerite Su 21 Oct '13

21 Oct '13

Hi, everyone, I feel honored to broadcast this exciting news! Yesterday with the help of Jerzy, I got maintainership for X11:Cinnamon:*. So we can keep going now. For now, this project is left behind. Upstream is 2.0.2 and we're still 1.6.7. I see many home projects have higher versions of Cinnamon: http://software.opensuse.org/package/cinnamon There's even latest 2.0.2 out there. So I call people to submit your packaging work to X11:Cinnamon:Factory freely, I'll wait you there. And I need a few experts to act as repository maintainer with me. So we can cherry-pick packages from home projects (not just linking or copying, we have to merge changelogs so we will not override other people's credits) My plan is: 1. cleanup work. remove 12.1 tagets becasue it's EOLed. and considering remove GNOME34 tagets (don't know if it's possible, open to discussion here) 2. add new targets 12.3, 13.1 Tumbleweed. (maybe a new X11:Cinnamon:GNOME38 or something to absorb Cinnamon 1.8, also open to discussion) 3. copy new packages from home:cyberorg:cinnamon because it has latest versions and fix possible packaging warnings/bugs if there're. 4. cherry-pick packages from the same project and merge changelogs. 5. solid testing. After we finished the update job. welcome to test if your old annoying bugs are still there in newer versions, and we'll find a way to eliminate them. 6. find as many guy interested as possible to keep this project going and hope one day we can make it 13.2 or 13.3 So now: 1. Everyone interested in this project (a must) and have a home repository (so we can see if you're qualified) can apply maintainership against: X11:Cinnamon It's the project we keep permissions. If accepted, you can deal with all X11:Cinnamon:* sub-projects. For now there's a problem that if no one is added to X11:Cinnamon:Factory, we won't have any notifications if there're submit requests against it. As a workaround I added myself maintainer there. I want a bugowner for this project, because my daily-use DE is actually KDE. I myself personally prefer those who have already been repository maintainers to apply, because you have already known how this game plays and how important working with upstream is. And those who have strong packaging skills and know how to use mailing lists. Because at this stage we just need underlying works. After a few weeks, I welcome every daily Cinnamon users who have passion to apply some permissions, in that way this project will not be inactive any more just because we shift or turn our head to other projects (eg, I personally feel more responsible to keep M17N going...because without that, I can't even input anything in openSUSE) But also, my idea is open to discussion here. 2. Everyone who already have some Cinnamon bits inside your home, please merge the old changelog from X11:Cinnamon:Factory if there already been a package there (copy and keep items in correct timestamp, easy) and submit, or just submit if it's a new package.

[opensuse-packaging] [Proposal] Per service ulimits
by Marcus Rueckert 18 Oct '13

18 Oct '13

/etc/systemd/system/${servicename}.service.d/limits.conf the fileformat will be from man 5 systemd.conf. For setting the maxfilehandles. the file would look like. [[[ [Service] LimitNOFILE=8192 ]]] Todos: 1. systemd 1.1 on 13.1 or later: nothing. systemd will automerge all files in /etc/systemd/system/${servicename}.service.d/ when handling ${servicename}.service. Support for this was introduced in v198. 1.2 12.3 and older. The user needs to create a file /etc/systemd/system/${servicename}.service with 2 lines: [[[ .include /usr/lib/systemd/system/${servicename}.service .include /etc/systemd/system/${servicename}.service.d/limits.conf ]]] If the unit author decides he wants to support this out of the box, they can ship the limits.conf and include it in the /usr/lib/systemd/system/${servicename}.service. 2. sysvinit Ideally if you introduce this way to support per service ulimits, it should also work with init scripts. For this we propose a patch to rc.status which converts the systemd syntax into ulimit calls. It will also handle translations like infinity -> unlimited. This is tracked now in https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=846178 -- openSUSE - SUSE Linux is my linux openSUSE is good for you www.opensuse.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] php5 release# ?
by Per Jessen 17 Oct '13

17 Oct '13

I'm trying to add a patch to php5 - I've branched php5 from Factory, but in the spec file "Release" is set to 0, whereas the release# found in Factory is 2.1. Have I checked out the code from the wrong place maybe? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (15.9°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - dedicated server rental in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] What is the correct project for a new apache module?
by Per Jessen 17 Oct '13

17 Oct '13

I'm thinking of packaging mpm_itk for apache 2.4 (only), so I've been trying to figure out how to add a new package to Factory.

[opensuse-packaging] prosody-relates sr's to server:messaging / lua packaging
by Sascha Peilicke 14 Oct '13

14 Oct '13

Hi Marguerite, it seems like it's time to review your requests, it's only been 2 months :-/ While the submits look mostly fine to me, I wonder whether the lua dependencies should go into devel:languages:lua following the package style / naming there and be linked instead into server:messaging? From glimpsing at d:l:lua, it's in a really sorry state and needs a lot of love. I don't know if you'd be interested in working on that, thus I'm opening this up to the wider community. -- Sascha Peilicke SUSE Linux GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg)

[opensuse-packaging] dependency issues of gpg-offline in openSUSE 13.1
by Tim Hardeck 11 Oct '13

11 Oct '13

Hi, I have added gpg-offline for source verification to the Dropbear package but this does prevent the building on 13.1 because libsasl is missing. https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=dropbear&project=network This doesn't happen in Factory or in 12.3 and even if I add the according library package to the build requires it still fails on 13.1. Does anyone have an idea how to fix this issue?

[opensuse-packaging] unstable scientific packages
by Dmitry Roshchin 09 Oct '13

09 Oct '13

Hello, Currently we have science project [1] for providing scientific and engineering software. Simultaneously it is devel project for Factory. Are there any ideas that case is better for providing unstable versions of small amount of programs? Placing in science repo directly with -unstable postfix in package name or creating science:unstable repository?
