[opensuse-packaging] not restarting the docker service on running zypper update?
by Jordi Massaguer Pla 03 Feb '17

03 Feb '17

Hi packagers, I am packaging docker and we have this problem that if a user runs an unattended update, docker gets updated and so restarted. However, this is causing downtime issues on their services which are inside containers. I know there is the "--skip-interactive" flag for zypper ... So my question is. Should we mark docker as "interactive" and if so, how do we do that? Should we not restart docker when installing? I think you should, but am I wrong? Are there other packages with similar problems? mariadb? thanks in advance jordi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] how do i package a rubygem?
by Mathias Homann 31 Jan '17

31 Jan '17

Hi, I'm trying to package a rubygem as rpm, but I have not that much experience with ruby... how do I proceed? The upstream site does not have much to say about packaging it, only about manual local installation (gem install $name)... Any hints welcomed!

[opensuse-packaging] Package groups and desktop categories for CAD/CAM software
by Jarek Cora 30 Jan '17

30 Jan '17

Hi everyone, I'd like to start a discussion regarding RPM groups and desktop categories for CAD/CAM software. 1) CAD software, like OpenSCAD, FreeCAD, LibreCAD etc For RPM groups, we obviously have Productivity/Graphics/CAD [1] For desktop categories, there is no obvious choice. Some packagers use Graphics;3DGraphics or Graphics;2DGraphics but it seems wrong, because this way CAD software ends up in the same place as GIMP, digikam, gwenview and these two types of application have very little in common. Looking in the Freedesktop spec [4], the correct category for CAD is "Engineering", but our guidelines [3] allow Engineering only in "Science" or "Education", and both seem wrong in this case. 2) CAM software, like Cura, Slic3r, Printrun etc Here the situation is basically hopeless, as there is neither RPM group nor desktop category suitable for CAM software. For RPM groups, Fedora [2] uses Application/Engineering, but our guidelines [1] do not allow it. For desktop categories, one could use the "Engineering" in "Science" or "Education" but just like with CAD it seems like a stretch. Relevant links: [1] openSUSE groups: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Package_group_guidelines [2] Fedora groups: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/RPMGroups [3] openSUSE categories: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Packaging_desktop_menu_categories [4] Freedesktop categories: https://specifications.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/latest/apas02.html We advertise as openSUSE as "The makers' choice...", so I hope we could address these concerns, as they affect software typically used by makers. It's a bit funny we (and Freedesktop) have a designated category for Spirituality software, but not for 3D printing :) Any thoughts? -- Jarek -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] changing a sysconfig file on an update
by Jordi Massaguer Pla 27 Jan '17

27 Jan '17

Hi, we have this problem on the docker package that could be fixed by adding a configuration option in /etc/sysconfig/docker ... However, I believe it is not good practice to update configuration files .... is it? Can I just update the /adm/fillup-templates/sysconfig.docker and expect that the %fillup_only macro will take care of that? thanks -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] Correctly naming a python package
by Johannes Kastl 26 Jan '17

26 Jan '17

Dear all, I had the need for a little python bindings package, that is available in pypi as lxc-python2. https://pypi.python.org/pypi/lxc-python2 https://github.com/lxc/python2-lxc As this is required for setting up lxc containers via ansible, I guess this might be useful in factory. But what would be the correct name for the package? python-lxc-python2 python2-lxc-python2 python2-lxc ... Johannes P.S.: The bindings themselves have not changed for a long time, so this should be easy to maintain...

[opensuse-packaging] How to update patterns-openSUSE?
by Takashi Iwai 25 Jan '17

25 Jan '17

Hi, is there a special method to update patterns-openSUSE package? I thought there were some magic procedure in the past, but nowadays may I just do osc SR with the desired change? And what about the patterns of the released product (e.g. openSUSE-42.2)? Do MR similarly? I'm trying to fix the long-standing issue in boo#1010202 to drop gsynaptics, and stumbled upon these questions. thanks, Takashi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner(a)opensuse.org
