[yast-devel] Automatical built of YaST packages
by Thomas Goettlicher 10 May '13

10 May '13

Developers, I'm happy to announce that YaST packages are built and submitted automatically now. For every change of a YaST package located in the git repo's master branch ( https://github.com/yast/ ) the package is build automatically. On success it's submitted to YaST:Head in the build service, otherwise an email on yast-commit(a)opensuse.org informs about the failure. Packages in YaST:Head still need to be submitted to Factory manually because we want to make sure not to break Factory by this automatism.

[yast-devel] Disturbing branches at GitHub (broken/...)
by Lukas Ocilka 22 Mar '13

22 Mar '13

Hi, You've probably already found out that there are a lot of "broken" branches at our GitHub repositories: For instance: * upstream/broken/master * upstream/broken/openSUSE-10_0 * upstream/broken/openSUSE-10_1 * upstream/broken/openSUSE-10_2 * ... AFAIK, these branches were left there from the unsuccessful migration from SVN to GitHub. So, what are we going to do with them? From my point of view, they are not needed and just disturb there.

[yast-devel] Still a lot of SuSEconfig in YaST modules
by Freek de Kruijf 27 Feb '13

27 Feb '13

Curiosity led me to download the network module of YaST using git from GitHIB. When reading through several files I found a number of time references to /sbin/SuSEconfig and other mentioning of SuSEconfig. I understand that SuSEconfig is gone and I could not find the file /sbin/SuSEconfig on my openSUSE 12.3 system. So I wonder how this works. -- fr.gr. member openSUSE Freek de Kruijf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: yast-devel+owner(a)opensuse.org

[yast-devel] yast2-control-center-gnome failing make distcheck
by Michael Catanzaro 22 Feb '13

22 Feb '13

I'm new to YaST development and have been updating yast2-control-center-gnome; the version currently in 12.3 is showing its age relative to upstream gnome-control-center. I'm done with my changes but I notice the module currently fails make distcheck: ERROR: files left after uninstall: ./share/doc/packages/yast2-control-center-gnome/COPYING ./share/doc/packages/yast2-control-center-gnome/README make[1]: *** [distuninstallcheck] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/michael/yast-control-center-gnome/yast2-control-center-gnome-2.23.0/_build' make: *** [distcheck] Error 1 I have no idea how to fix this. Is this a bug in the YaST autogen tools, or is something wrong in the module? And when complete, do I submit the updated package to YaST:Head on OBS, or is there another process for YaST development?

[yast-devel] Android navigation
by Bryen M Yunashko 12 Feb '13

12 Feb '13

Hey, a bit of an unusual question I guess, but wondering if anyone here has tried this out. Last night I installed an SSH terminal on my Android phone. Then out of curiosity, I went to Yast on the terminal, and everything looked great. One problem... Without a tab key on my Android, I was unable to navigate around the menus. And my new Android doesn't come with a physical keyboard, so there's no mousepad to move up and down and around. Has anyone here experienced the same, and what's the workaround?

[yast-devel] SLE 11 SP3 and string freeze
by Karl Eichwalder 12 Feb '13

12 Feb '13

We (that's Novell Globalization in Dublin) has started the translation process this week (based on the SLE 11 SP3 beta1 code base). Thus the SP3 code base is now in the string freeze period. This means that changing strings for SP3 is no longer allowed. Only if you must fix a somehow serious bug, you are allowed to touch the existing strings. Adding strings to implement an approved feature is ok. Other examples: No longer fix simple typos in source code--instead report it to me and I'll fix it via "translations" in the corresponding en_US and en_GB .po files. But if a string is misleading (e.g., a missing "not") and thus hard or impossible to translate, please fix it in the source code. If you must change or add text strings, create a new .pot file and send it to me (preferred via bugzilla). Thanks for you cooperation! -- Karl Eichwalder SUSE LINUX Products GmbH R&D / Documentation Maxfeldstraße 5 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: yast-devel+owner(a)opensuse.org

[yast-devel] WFM and other languages
by Josef Reidinger 05 Feb '13

05 Feb '13

Hi, as part of my improvements to ruby bindings and ruby usability for YaST I create script for starting clients code. But clients code can be run also via WFM and it is problem. Now it is hardcoded there, that it must be ycp - https://github.com/yast/yast-core/blob/master/wfm/src/Y2CCWFM.cc#L65 I think it would be nice to change it and it is also required if we want to have complete module in ruby that play nice with ycp modules. My idea is to search also for other suffixes ( now if I know only ruby can call clients, but maybe in future other bindings want to use it also ) and call directly ruby component to call its client that is passed. For this goal it would be nice to enhance PathSearch to detect on its own suffixes, so it can be on one place and not have everywhere try for various suffixes. Also there is one more problem in yast2 script. It pass only client name without suffix, so it is hard to decide in script itself if client is ruby or ycp. Is there any way how to detect it in yast script? Or how to use PathSearch from shell ( of course with passed '-I' parameters ) Thanks for answer Josef -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: yast-devel+owner(a)opensuse.org

[yast-devel] Wrong parts of documentation
by Josef Reidinger 04 Feb '13

04 Feb '13

Hi, during traversing YCP documentation to continue with proper implementation builtins in ruby for ruby bindings, I found that some places are wrong. First think is select builtin. In documentation is that if there is wrong typem it should return default, but in fact it return always nil try mentioned example on your own: select ([1, "two"], 0, "no") -> "no" documentation says "no" but it is nil http://doc.opensuse.org/projects/YaST/openSUSE11.3/tdg/select-list.html Second part is bracket operator, where it missing documentation that it can be used also for terms. http://doc.opensuse.org/projects/YaST/openSUSE11.3/tdg/bracket.html Josef -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: yast-devel+owner(a)opensuse.org

[yast-devel] Broken autosubmit to YaST:Head?
by Ladislav Slezak 04 Feb '13

04 Feb '13

Hi all, I noticed that yast2-control-center is broken in YaST:Head, the spec file was missing. I added it manually but after some time the package got resubmitted and the spec file got lost again: https://build.opensuse.org/package/rdiff?linkrev=base&package=yast2-control… Can somebody check the auto submitting code for YaST:Head? It seems that only this single package is affected, the other packages seem to be OK. -- Best Regards Ladislav Slezák Yast Developer ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SUSE LINUX, s.r.o. e-mail: lslezak(a)suse.cz Lihovarská 1060/12 tel: +420 284 028 960 190 00 Prague 9 fax: +420 284 028 951 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: yast-devel+owner(a)opensuse.org
