[opensuse-packaging] Selecting GCC version
by Matthias Fehring 03 Apr '18

03 Apr '18

Hello, is there a simple way to force the GCC version used to build a package? openSUSE Leap 42.2 for example uses GCC 4.8 as default compiler, but also provides packages for GCC 5.3. Simply using BuildRequires gcc5 pulls gcc5 in but still uses gcc48 to build the package (especially in Build Service). So is there maybe some Buid Service or spec file switch (bcond) to select the used GCC version? Best greetings Matthias Fehring P.S. Not sure if it is a problem with my browser settings, but when I try to search lists.opensuse.org, it is not possible for me to limit the results to a specific list. Even if I set one, I get results from all lists, what makes searching almost impossible, because most results are commit messages. -- Das Gesetz hat zum Schneckengang verdorben, was Adlerflug geworden wäre.

[opensuse-packaging] .changes madness with upstream updates
by Michael Ströder 13 Nov '17

13 Nov '17

HI! Sometimes a submission of me gets declined because of changelog being too short or too long referring to this policy: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Creating_a_changes_file_%28RPM%29#What_goe… While the guide-lines were surely outlined with good aims I have to question the current policy of package changelogs (*.changes) regarding upstream updates. The rules are too blurry and boil down to "Do the right thing". I don't like to provide an extract of an upstream changelog because I'm convinced that no packager is capable of extracting a really meaningful essence from an upstream changelog. Furthermore I assume that upstream developers are also lazy writing docs and the changelog would have been already shorter if still meaningful. So IMO the right way is to.. 1. just mention upstream release and packaging changes xor 2. add the complete changelog. Ciao, Michael.

[opensuse-packaging] Java-build on TW fails suddenly: [javac] error: Source option 1.5 is no longer supported. Use 1.6 or later.

Hi, maybe we have a Java-Expert around that can support: projectlibre [1] suddenly fails to build on TW, with the error message: [ 31s] [ 31s] init: [ 31s] [mkdir] Created dir: /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/projectlibre-1.7.0/openproj_contrib/build [ 31s] [mkdir] Created dir: /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/projectlibre-1.7.0/openproj_contrib/tmp [ 31s] [ 31s] build: [ 31s] [javac] /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/projectlibre-1.7.0/openproj_contrib/build.xml:30: warning: 'includeantruntime' was not set, defaulting to build.sysclasspath=last; set to false for repeatable builds [ 31s] [javac] Compiling 10 source files to /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/projectlibre-1.7.0/openproj_contrib/build [ 31s] [javac] error: Source option 1.5 is no longer supported.

[opensuse-packaging] RFC: changing RPM's default scriptlet locale
by jan matejek 06 Nov '17

06 Nov '17

Fellow mortals, more and more packages need their locale to be set to something more sensible than C. This hit me while switching packages over to Python 3. Python gets its encoding from locale, so by default, it won't decode UTF-8 unless the appropriate encoding is set. Right now, when gtk-doc is switched to use Python 3, it won't build UTF-8 documentation. This could be changed in gtk-doc itself (although that is impractical), but perhaps a better way is to change the default locale for spec scriptlets. Right now the macros set it to C. We could switch that to "C.UTF-8", "en_US.UTF-8", or export a special RPM variable that could be overriden in your spec file. Still, the default should be something with UTF-8 in it. I'm now trying to build a Ring 1 staging project with this change. So far I have seen one failure related to it: with en_US.UTF-8, bash ranges (like [a-z]) are case-insensitive and match more than intended. That could be solved by changing the expression, or by setting locale to C.UTF-8. Thoughts, comments? regards m.

[opensuse-packaging] RFC: best practices for referencing bugs/features in commit messages and %changelog
by Adam Spiers 25 Oct '17

25 Oct '17

Hi all, openSUSE has a documented policy for how to reference external bugs / features from within package %changelogs: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Creating_a_changes_file_(RPM)#Bug_fix.2C_f… This works fairly well, but is not perfect, especially in the case where entries in a foo.changes file are automatically generated from upstream SCM repositories, e.g. via the tar_scm source service. Some recent discussion amongst my team got me thinking about whether we could improve this slightly. So I just wrote up my thoughts, which include two possible ways forward: https://github.com/openSUSE/obs-service-tar_scm/issues/207 Feedback on this would be very welcome. Thanks!

[opensuse-packaging] Kiwi - different behaviour on OBS and locally

[opensuse-packaging] Python scripts and rpmlint
by Todd Rme 18 Oct '17

18 Oct '17

The current version of rpmlint in devel:languages:python [1] contains a patch relative to the one in openSUSE:Factory. This patch adds additional warnings and errors regarding shebangs in scripts. Specifically, executable scripts with "/usr/bin/env" cause an error and "/usr/bin/python" cause a warning. However, the submission to openSUSE:Factory [2] was rejected 4 months ago over doubts regarding whether there should be an error and whether the checks are really necessary. Since then, devel:languages:python has had this different rpmlint behavior than openSUSE:Factory. I hope we can get this issue resolved so we can bring the two versions back into agreement. 1: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/devel:languages:python/rpmlint 2: https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/508168 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-packaging] Building python-urllib for SLES12 GA and SP1 hangs and hangs and hangs...
by Johannes Kastl 17 Oct '17

17 Oct '17

Dear python experts, I tried to build python-urllib for SLES12 GA and SP1, but it is hanging in the tests. Previously it failed, because it timed out after 28000s. > https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:ojkastl_buildservice:Redfish_S… For SP2 and SP3 it builds in a reasonable time and does not fail or time out. Anything I need to change? Any package or setting that is missing on SP1 and GA? Thanks in advance. Johannes
