Hi,

I noticed some packages in M17N were dropped from Factory.

But the links are still there, so they're all in a "broken" status.

How can I remove the links and make them build inside M17N?

Well, remove the _link file

(osc co -u)

I was more thinking "click remove action behind the _link file" Greetings, Stephan -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iD8DBQFSQ9xNwFSBhlBjoJYRAh6JAJ0Wudzb9ElPsI5iChHBuLP7Tt8RJQCfZ2z+ efozh9WQVoTcYkEZnTuBVdY= =jEdD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org

Hi, coolo,

I tried that on two packges, after clicking to remove the _link file, OBS then says "This package has no files yet", is that normal?

I thought it would be some files left...

Ah, different problem then. Yes, it's possible to have packages that are only links - but once I converted all factory packages to be branches in devel projects, which keep a copy of the last working state. So your best bet then is osc copypac openSUSE:12.3 <PKG> M17N Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org

That only works for packages that still have a valid target though Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org

hmm..

osc getbinaries extract the src.rpm and re-inject into the .pkg...

or, as Stephan said, copypac from 12.3; considering this being a package not touched for years, this will be a 100% copy anyway.

PS: Don't we have the openSUSE:Dropped namespace anymore for exactly this usecase?

This was fed from SUSE internal scripts, but as we are no longer deleting packages silently, there is no need for it anymore and I simply accept delete requests. And with OBS having undelete support, reviving a package is easy - in Factory itself at least.
