Is it recommended that Recommended are switched off?
by Matěj Cepl 28 May '23

28 May '23

See https://bugzilla.suse.com/1211446 … it seems to me that this attitude, that everybody switch off Recommends, because they bring too much garbage, so it is all right that packages bring too much garbage, is rather evil. Any comments on it? Best, Matěj -- https://matej.ceplovi.cz/blog/, @mcepl@floss.social GPG Finger: 3C76 A027 CA45 AD70 98B5 BC1D 7920 5802 880B C9D8 Don’t anthropomorphize computers.

Safely testing the new python3.11 stack on Leap15/SLE15?
by Johannes Kastl 24 May '23

24 May '23

Hi all, I think I got everything I new for Ansible and its ecosystem building and running on SLES15/Leap15 with the 3.11 python stack. Except the actual python stack. Which repositories would I need to add to get it (for testing if there are any runtime dependencies that I missed)? I tried to understand the setup of the SLE15/Leap15 projects in OBS. But as far as I understood those are coming from a download-on-demand repo on http://suse-sle-mirror. And at that point I gave up and … [View More]

New to OBS python package won't build - for accessing PST files

All, I won't to be able access PST files from python. python-libratom is a package for doing that. It layers on top of libpff, which is already in factory.

Building a python module only for x86_64?
by Johannes Kastl 15 May '23

15 May '23

Good <insert-time-of-day> everyone, I am trying to package pynitrokey for openSUSE, which requires https://github.com/nxp-mcuxpresso/pypemicro I packaged it and it builds successfully, but only on x86_64. All other architectures fail, as apparently the module does not support it. I am in clarification with upstream. If x86_64 is really the only architecture, how would I prevent builds for other architectures? Simply disable the build targets in my branched project, submit to dlp (… [View More]

How to properly BuildRequire an older version of a python package?
by Johannes Kastl 12 May '23

12 May '23

Hi all, python-ansible-compat had a new release 4.0.2, which brings improvements but is not compatible with the older 3.0.2 release. ansible-lint works with the new one, molecule does not yet. I wanted to package both until molecule gets updated, but as soon as the new one is present, molecule is "unresolvable". And I thought this worked for similar problems in the past, so I might just miss something. > https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:ojkastl_buildservice:Branch_sy… … [View More]

sle15_python_module_pythons
by Eric Schirra 08 May '23

I see more and more %{?sle15_python_module_pythons} and %{sle15modernpython} in packages changes. But i can't find any documentation about it. Not in wiki and not in python-rpm-macro. So what's the deal with "%{?sle15_python_module_pythons}" ? And what's the deal with "%{sle15modernpython}" ? Regards Eric

openSUSE:Factory i586
by Arjen de Korte 03 May '23

03 May '23

In many development repositories, packages are being build for openSUSE:Factory not only for x86_64, but also for i586. Since the vast majority of packages are excluded in the i586 in openSUSE:Factory, this means that quite a number are build with packages that are no longer up-to-date. It is my understanding that for the i586 flavor one should build for openSUSE:Factory:LegacyX86 instead. Am I correct in this? Should development repositories cease to build i586 packages for … [View More]
