Hi all,
I am trying to create a pattern following the document in http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service_Tutorial#Create_Patterns and have a few questions.
Do patterns work with yast when the repo url has been added as an installation source?
yes. (at least until 10.3, in Factory, the pattern handling of YaST is afaik a bit broken atm). I can't seem to get it work for 10.3.
Does deletion of patterns work? (osc meta pattern --delete PRJ PATTERN) Its not working for me.
Indeed, this seems to be broken in current osc. Please open a bugreport, thanks :)
As current workaround, you can do it directly with the api, this works:
curl -0 -b -X DELETE https://api.opensuse.org/source/<project>/_pattern/<patternfile>
just for others drop the -b and add user:passwd@api.opensuse.org to url syntax
Does category name correspond to the headers under patterns in the yast installer(Desktop,Additional Software, etc)? Will a new category be added to the yast installer if this doesn't match an existing one?
I dunno, maybe you should ask this on the zypp / package managing mailing list.
Are there any existing examples that I should look at that support patterns(.ymp files)?
KDE:Backports contains patterns for digikam and amarok, which I created as initial examples.
These examples seem to be metapackages and use one click - does this work with Yast? And these don't match the above (url) documentation for patterns. I tried using this syntax without success - any ideas?
bye adrian
