[opensuse-packaging] reproducible builds
by Adam Spiers 15 Mar '16

15 Mar '16

Is anyone working on (or thinking of working on) making our build process reproducible? https://reproducible-builds.org/ It seems Debian and Fedora are already part of the project, and the advantages are quite compelling, not just from a security perspective, but also due to the potential savings in storage and network consumption: https://hackweek.suse.com/13/projects/131 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] Creating Maintenance Request for non included software [Leap]
by Bruno Friedmann 12 Feb '16

12 Feb '16

[short summary] During the creation of Leap, I've tried to sr postgresql94-plr to Leap. It was refused, at that time postgresql94 wasn't yet properly submitted to factory, casue 94 version was directly coming from SLE. postgresql93-plr was submitted to Leap and accepted. Now dust has settle. Actually here the situation : On Leap you can choose between postgresql 9.3 and 9.4 version. Unfortunately for user of 9.4 they can benefit the postgresql94-plr due to the refused sr. I would like to create a Maintenance ticket to push postgresql94-plr to Leap. It's a non sense to tell users to broke their system by using the -devel projet. I know how to do that for existing package, but for a non existing one. Someone has an example of how to do this ?

[opensuse-packaging]

Hello, In my institute we are selecting the operating system and Leap 42.1 is a strong candidate. In the selection process we are deeply analyzing the packaging and package management aspects. Currently we use openSUSE 11.1 and some custom GUI packaging and installation tools based on RPM. With the new OS we would like to follow the packaging good practices of the distribution. We have already tried building packages for the python projects, using the python setup.py bdist_rpm (based on distutils), but we also wanted to give a try to the "openSUSE:Packaging guidelines [1]. We mostly use Python and C++ projects, hosted on sourceforge/github or our local repositories. We do want to implement Continuous Delivery, so automatic packaging and deployment to the testing environment is crucial for us. Initially we do not foresee to publish our packages to the distribution, but maybe in the future we would like to do that for some of our projects. In your portal we have found several recommendation to use the OBS [2]. But our understanding is that OBS is just for the packages aimed to be public. We have not found information on how to build locally packages apart of a link to the Fedora How to create RPM packages [3]. There is also a possibility to setup our private OBS system, but maybe it is too complicated solution for what we need right now. Could you provide us a guide on how to do packaging in the most compatible with the openSUSE standards way. Thanks a lot for your help!

[opensuse-packaging] Any limits on dependency resolver script?
by Marguerite Su 28 Jan '16

28 Jan '16

Hi, I wrote two external Provides/Requires resolver scripts for nodejs packaging. Usually such scripts should take what RPM pass through it, that is, filelist of buildroot. But: 1. I ran the script locally by passing exactly the same filelist through, it ran fine. 2. I let the script run on OBS, it gave different result, indicating that a nested "each" loop is not completely looped (correct: loop 14000 times; wrong: loop 19 times) 3. I modified the code, to find the filelist myself. the result is correct. So the problem is due to what RPM pass through. But, eg, the self found list: /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/...../gulp/package.json the passed through list: /home/abuild....package.json\n the result was wrong even after I stripped '\n'. so I wonder if there're any limits on resources in RPM dependency resolving? like CPU usage...

[opensuse-packaging] Extensions for specification of application binary/programming interfaces?
by SF Markus Elfring 27 Jan '16

27 Jan '16

Hello, I have tried the following queries out on package information which is available on my openSUSE Tumbleweed system at the moment. elfring@Sonne:~> show_names() { > XY=$(zypper --terse search --match-words --provides "$1") && echo "$XY" | tail --lines +$(($(echo "$XY" | grep --line-number --regexp=--+ | cut --delimiter : --fields 1) + 1)) | cut --delimiter \| --fields 2 > } elfring@Sonne:~> show_names abi abi-compliance-checker gimp llvm-clang nodejs php5 python-base python3-base ruby2.1 ruby2.2 vdr elfring@Sonne:~> show_names api | wc -l 87 Does such a display indicate further possibilities for the specification of details around the usage of application binary interfaces and application programming interfaces? How do you think to improve any product descriptions which are provided (by RPM files for example) in different degree? Would it make sense to clarify a kind of certification mark duty for more software components?

[opensuse-packaging] How do I combine %__appdata_provides_ and %__desktop-file_provides in %define __find_provides
by Dave Plater 26 Jan '16

26 Jan '16

Hi, in hugin the internal dependency generator is off so it doesn't provide any appdata.xml or .desktop files. How do I define __find_provides to include both desktop-file.prov and appdata.prov?

[opensuse-packaging] Directory versioning policy for library packages
by Stefan Bruens 22 Jan '16

22 Jan '16

Hi, I have stumbled over a small problem regarding versioned directories. Currently, it is expected a versioned library uses a pattern like /usr/lib/ libfoo-1_2_3/bar.so. Although this allows multiple packages, it is contrary to what some upstreams use for versioning, e.g. /usr/lib/libfoo/1.2.3/bar.so. From an RPM perspective, both are ok, as directories can be owned by multiple packages. rpmlint throws an "W: shlib-policy-nonversioned-dir" warning, which is IMHO wrong.
