[opensuse-packaging] Horde and Pear packaging in server:php:applications
Hi list, in the last days I have been busy updating and submitting packages related to Horde php applications and horde pear packages. While Horde had been in mainstream repositories even way before suse became opensuse, nowadays most horde rpms in Buildservice are outdated or wouldn't even build. I think it is time to communicate with you about the best way we can improve the situation, as I am new to openSUSE packaging and don't know all the rules and ways to handle things. My goal for now is to have most or all officially released "stable" horde modules and dependencies as in http://www.horde.org/projects.php in a current state, working for SLE_11, Factory and OpenSUSE 11.3, but preferably also for older supported targets. I would also like to maintain them for the forseeable future and probably bring them to Factory if there is nothing against it. My questions: What to do now? I have just targeted my submit requests for two new packages and several updates/fixes at the server:php:applications repository. While the fixes and updates all have been accepted, the new packages are currently waiting for some review or so I think. I am not sure if I have to do anything about them right now. Whom to contact? I have found out that the php5-pear-role_web package does not build on any current platform. The source archive pearified.com is gone for good. Searching the net, I read that the role_web has been incorporated to php-pear proper and is not needed anymore. I think it is best to drop this package and remove Requires: on it. Who should I ask? Who does kolab? The Kolab Groupware uses horde as its web client. While I don't want to intentionally break compatibility of horde packages with kolab, I am not involved enough to know which kolab patches of old packages are really still required in the newer versions. There is an ongoing upstream effort to make horde just work with kolab without any patches. I would like to communicate with somebody who does the kolab packages about these issues. -- Ralf Lang lang@b1-systems.de http://www.b1-systems.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org

You can change stuff yourself now enjoy :) bug me if you have any problem or question, Though I will no longer maintain this repo.
Who does kolab?
I do not remember exactly who was working on Kolab.. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org

I used to do Kolab, but due to time constraints I can no longer maintain the Kolab packages. At this moment Kolab is without maintainer. Any one out there that is willing to continue the maintenance of the Kolab packages?

The current patches are located at: http://hg.kolab.org/server/file/e6991051f528/kolab-webclient/ but as there is no working Kolab groupware server at the moment for openSUSE, it does not make sense to make packages more complicated with Kolab webclient patches.

I have asked Gunnar Wrobel of upstream kolab and horde and he suggests strictly splitting horde3 proper and horde3 with kolab patches. For horde4 they expect to have kolab support out of the box. If nobody complains, I will remove kolab related patches in the horde packages of server:php:applications and later team up with somebody who wants to maintain kolab to provide conflicting horde3-kolab, horde3-imp-kolab [..] packages for this special setup- -- Ralf Lang Linux Consultant / Developer Tel.: +49-170-6381563 Mail: lang@b1-systems.de B1 Systems GmbH Osterfeldstraße 7 / 85088 Vohburg / http://www.b1-systems.de GF: Ralph Dehner / Unternehmenssitz: Vohburg / AG: Ingolstadt,HRB 3537 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
