I'm trying to build a localized repository: Fedora + Updates + Local Packages
Some of the local packages are derived from the mainline. I make some [minor] changes to match my hardware (sadly, my mods aren't suitable for pushing upstream). I want to keep the version+revision pretty much intact so I know where the package came from, etc. For example, I need to have a slightly modified X server (uncommon hardware, yeah!). So, I started with the package: xorg-x11-server-1.3.0.0-40.fc8.src.rpm I make my little change and rebuild, creating: xorg-x11-server-1.3.0.0-40_AM.fc8.src.rpm along with the desired binary packages. I'm trying to run pungi to create a munged/tailored repository, using the official versions of Fedora & Updates. Sadly, it seems that the original package always seems to override the one with my modifications, e.g. xorg-x11-server-1.3.0.0-40.fc8.src.rpm is chosen, even when both it and xorg-x11-server-1.3.0.0-40_AM.fc8.src.rpm are present. Is there a way to set the version so that my package always wins? That way, I can use the 100% official repositories as the starting point and only have my little mods. Thanks for any pointers n.b. at the moment, I'm just pruning the packages I need to change out of the official versions (local copies of course), but this is tedious and fraught with error. -- ------------------------------------------------------------ Gary Thomas | Consulting for the MLB Associates | Embedded world ------------------------------------------------------------ -- Fedora-buildsys-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-buildsys-list
