SVN trunk compiles using gcc4.2. All developers should update to this version (or run build before comitting). Still working and testing the parser and feeding of data into the DB. Reviewing and fixing the SourcePackage handling. Current CacheStore inserts them as ordinary packages, which is plain wrong. We have to start defining how to make locks persistent. I'll prepare a wiki page for it. -- cu, Michael Andres +------------------------------------------------------------------+ Key fingerprint = 2DFA 5D73 18B1 E7EF A862 27AC 3FB8 9E3A 27C6 B0E4 +------------------------------------------------------------------+ Michael Andres YaST Development ma(a)novell.com SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany, ++49 (0)911 - 740 53-0 +------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: zypp-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: zypp-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

- refresh works and it is smart both for downloading the metadata and for building the cache against the metadata. (refresh and cache building for a group of repos that are compeltely up to date , and the cache is a uptodate cache of the metadata takes a second to exit zypper) - still pending: using the old metadata source as cache for Fetcher (no idea how to pass it to downloader and then to fetcher). - addRepo and deleteRepo in progress. - PackageProvider in progress. - in my devel dir testbed.cc you can find a prototype of a ProgressData wrapper that can be used as a progress callback, the idea is, if a function that reports progress has a sub task that also takes a progress callback, and the estimate of this function is X%, then the reports of progress of the sub task are forwarded to the wrapped ProgressData with the corresponded weight. We need this everywhere, Michael, could you please review it and help me with the concept? - Also it would be handy something to get a ProgressData from a MediaSetAccess that teporarely redirects the media reports to the function, michael, is this possible? -- Duncan Mac-Vicar Prett Novell :: SUSE R&D, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: zypp-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: zypp-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

- reimplemented: listrepos (rug service-list) (Duncan) refresh (Duncan) addrepo (rug service-add) search see also ISSUES - ZypperCommand enumeration class added with mappings between zypper and rug commands and aliases. E.g. addrepo - service-add - sa. Cleaner and more flexible code. - code clean-up ISSUES - I'm getting cca 12 secs times for loading preparsed resolvables from db for factory. This means an overall time for install/remove/search commands of 15-20 secs. - Lazy loading (probably) produces hell of a delay when searching in package descriptions (which are not loaded by default, right?) I need to double-check this. Search within NVRAD is quick. Of course, zypper search now just loads all resolvables into memory like it did before (it's just that now it is from preparsed db). This will of course be solved with a full-featured query API, which will later be used by both solver and user searches. Would anybody mind if i looked into this during the Hack Week? Such API would be immediately used by zypper search, and later by solver and searches in YaST package manager (and wherever we need to query database). - solver gives strange results. We probably write some dependencies incorrectly by parsers or we read them incorrectly. See OLD ZYPP, NEW ZYPP with susetags, and NEW ZYPP with yum. But since the results differ between susetags and yum, it is probably the parsers that write wrong data. - We need to replace references to source by RepoInfo (or what) in PoolItem (and maybe elsewhere) I think that's it for now. Continuing fixing the above and dropping the rest of old code from zypper. jano OLD ZYPP $ zypper install gedit ....

[zypp-devel] Improve error reports by creating an error stack?
by Michael Andres 18 Jun '07

18 Jun '07

At various locations we catch exceptions and translate them into other exceptions. Would it be helpfull, if we'd create a simple stack of error strings in class Exception? So we could store and propagate the old Exceptions asString and/or asUserString. Something like this: Failed to create repository. -Reason: Failed to parse some file -Reason: Failed to provide some file -Reason: File not found But it's only worth the efford, if the UI is willing to display such multiline stacklike error messages. -- cu, Michael Andres +------------------------------------------------------------------+ Key fingerprint = 2DFA 5D73 18B1 E7EF A862 27AC 3FB8 9E3A 27C6 B0E4 +------------------------------------------------------------------+ Michael Andres YaST Development ma(a)novell.com SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany, ++49 (0)911 - 740 53-0 +------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: zypp-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: zypp-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

[zypp-devel] [PROPOSAL] adaptation of zypp apps to new repo management API
by Jan Kupec 15 Jun '07

15 Jun '07

Yesterday we (Prague YaST team) had a discussion about how to proceed with adaptation of YaST to the new repository management API of libzypp. First thing to note, the API has yet to mature in the upcoming days, as we test it with zypper and still modify it as needed. _After_ the API is declared done, we propose to proceed as follows: 1. document transition from old API to the new one (a method to method, code to code map) and post to yast-devel. 2. drop the old source management code from libzypp trunk 3. submit libzypp trunk package to BETA (all dependent packages will then fail building and maintainers will get the notice). 4. maintainers of the dependencies adapt their code 5. after tuning, submit all the stuff to STABLE (in time for the last Aplha release) If you are a maintainer of a package affected by the changes in libzypp, please provide feedback on the new API as you start looking at it (probably after publishing the transition document).

[zypp-devel] patch and delta rpms out of resolvable
by Duncan Mac-Vicar Prett 14 Jun '07

14 Jun '07

As part of the download packages port, the delta/patch rpms are not longer taken from the packages API but from all repositories. What does this mean? - You could have repos providing only patch and delta rpms [1] - Patches don't need to specfy delta and patches rpms in the patch metadata. [1] [1]: This means a metadata format needs to be specified ( deltas.xml for repomd.xml ) I hope someone could drive the patch.xml cleanup. Duncan Note: The current format will still be parsed, and patch/delta rpms find inside patches will be inserted to the list of delta and patch rpms provided by the repo where that patch belongs. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: zypp-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: zypp-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

[zypp-devel] ZYpp lock - where don't we want it?
by Jan Kupec 14 Jun '07

14 Jun '07

Where we don't want a zypp lock? Where we need read access only in general. In particular: - listing known repositories - search (all kinds - listing available updates falls into this category) - other queries like zypper info, zypper patch-info, etc - (other cases?) What's to proper code to call when libzypp client wants to acquire zypp lock? Do we support all the above already, or do we need modifications? This list also applies to read access for non-root users. That means /etc/zypp/repo.d/* and /var/lib/cache/zypp.db must be readable by non-roots. (I can't think of more.) Also, some function for checking whether other app is having the lock would be nice for use even if we don't need the lock. Having that, e.g zypper search could show a warning that the search result can be inaccurate because of another app manipulating zypp data.

[zypp-devel] milestone success!
by Duncan Mac-Vicar 12 Jun '07

12 Jun '07

Today, Jano had zypper in a state where the package installation was almost working, except for the fact that the commit try to download the package from the Source class. Tonight, after modfying the commit code, I was able to install a package with zypper. Summary: <install> [S0:0][package]kopete-floor-0.1.0-17.1.x86_64 Continue? [y/n] y Downloading: [S0:0][package]kopete-floor-0.1.0-17.1.x86_64, -1 B(-1 B unpacked) Installing: [S0:0][package]kopete-floor-0.1.0-17.1.x86_64 duncan@tarro:/space/suse/build/zypper/src> duncan@tarro:/space/suse/build/zypper/src> rpm -q kopete-floor kopete-floor-0.1.0-17.1 Some notes: - The commit modifications are a real hack, I mean, it tries to download using the first url available only (no AI), and it wont work with patch and deltas because I did not port that part. PackageProvider and SourceProvideFile code is scary and hard to understand and follow. Can we make that simpler? - I had to ignore 25 dependency problems, because the target for some reason is not added to the pool, so nobody provides any of the requirements. Attached, the hack for zypp commit (not commited to svn as it touches the real working commit) -- Duncan Mac-Vicar Prett Novell :: SUSE R&D, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg)
