Hi,
I am trying to build packages for openSUSE and SLE. It lookks like the spec
file checked into github will mostly work. My problem with getting started
is the "missing" release tarball.
Is there such a beast as a release tarball?
- If yes, where would I find it?
- If no, is there a script in the source tree to create one?
-- If no, what do I need to put in the tarball?
Hi Robert,
There is a script to generate it, but it's part of the waf rpm build
script. Essentially you run that within a working source directory and
builds a tarball and runs rpmbuild -bb cloud.spec against it. So the
easiest way is to just tar up the source contents, or you can grab any
of the tarballs from any of the tags here:
https://github.com/CloudStack/CloudStack/tags
Thanks for the pointer. Got the tarball, now I need some help building
things ;)
My goal is to get rid of waf (which is currently how RPMs/DEBs are
built) and end up using ant for build and install. Right now waf does
a considerable amount of the install piece. I have a working spec to
build with ant - but haven't gotten all of the waf specific stuff back
into the any deploy target yet, so the spec while it works looks like
a mass of cp -a statements.
Well, I am not familiar with ant or waf, thus I'd probably be stuck with
either build/install mechanism.
Trying to add SUSE support into the configure script I am wondering what
the negative side effects are of not having the tomcat expression
language jar file (tomcat6-el-1.0-api.jar)?
We currently do not build this jar file for SLE. Although I can
certainly build it in OBS.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Robert
