Feature changed by: Matthias Weckbecker (mweckbecker) Feature #309606, revision 14 Title: cpan2obs w/ cpan2dist && _service Requested by: Matthias Weckbecker (mweckbecker) Developer: (Novell) Developer: (Novell) Description: With cpan2dist [0] and the new _service concept [1] of the openSUSE BuildService we will automatically mirror every CPAN module to OBS -> CPAN2OBS. [0] http://search.cpan.org/~bingos/CPANPLUS-0.9004/bin/cpan2dist [1] http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/Concepts/SourceService Discussion: #1: Stephan Kulow (coolo) (2010-06-07 08:02:11) as there doesn't seem to be a CPANPLUS::Dist::openSUSE yet, you may want to look at cpan2spec (the original creates fedora spec files, we added patches to build openSUSE). In CPANPLUS::Dist, you want different modules for the distributions as opensuse has slightly different policies about perl modules than fedora. They could use common code though (http://search.cpan.org/%7Ebingos/CPANPLUS-0.9004 /lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Base.pm) #2: Christian Dengler (the-chris) (2010-06-12 00:22:20) (reply to #1) It exists a CPANPLUS::Dist:SUSE modul. Matthias and I modified it. So it seems that it is working now. After the first test runs we have got a success rate of 70%. #3: Juergen Weigert (jnweiger) (2010-06-25 23:45:48) Are your modifications accessible? I cannot find them in the buildservice or on cpan. devel:languages:perl:CPAN contains 100 packages, all starting with perl- A* Is there more? + #4: Matthias Weckbecker (mweckbecker) (2010-06-28 16:01:31) (reply to + #3) + > Are your modifications accessible? + Nope, Christian and I haven't pushed our modifications to CPANPLUS:: + Dist::SUSE to upstream yet, but as soon as we have some time free()'d + we're gonna send a mail to the author of the package. + > Is there more? + There'll be more. However, at first, we need to improve some parts of + the wrapper program which calls cpan2dist. We'd like to achieve a + higher rate than 70%. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309606
