Hi,
I am attempting to package mongoDb and have some questions.
The source tarball has an rpm directory with a spec file (mongo.spec). I created my own spec file that contains some minor changes w.r.t. naming but other than that is pretty much the same as the .spec file supplied by the project.
Was this the right thing to do or is there a better way?
I left the rpm directory including the spec file in the tarball (which I re-packed) and when building the project (https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=mongoDB&project=home%3Arjschwei%3AmongoDB) OBS is running into a conflict between the spec file of the project and the one I created. This ties into the previous question I guess, but I'll ask anyway. Should I just get rid of the original spec file, or rename it, or should I get rid of my spec file? But then I think I need a spec file to get things going, just uploading a tarball is not useful.
I linked js from the OSSP project. Initially I had an expansion error w.r.t. the missing js-devel package. Thus I take it if I wanted mongoDB in the distribution I'd also have to get the developers of the OSSP project to submit the js package to the distribution, correct?
Help is appreciated. Thanks, Robert -- Robert Schweikert MAY THE SOURCE BE WITH YOU
I'd like to generalize Robert's question. I am part of a project that is creating the original source, makefiles, etc. When I am satisfied with the specfile I create for OBS, how should I put it back into my project. Just create a specfile in the root? Thanks Greg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
