Fixed it (libpng 1.5 issues), bumped it to 2.2.1. This required a
rebuild of deps (perl-PDF-Haru, EMBOSS), which I also kicked off in rawhide.

I don't think it does, in practice. the 0.n part covers any such
situation just fine. *any* time you build the package, you are supposed
to increment n. I don't think it's possible for a situation to exist
where a change in SCM would cause a problem for sorting. The SCM stuff
is put behind the 0.n bit for precisely this reason.

That's why I suggested making the date _optional_. If the packager
reckons it's useful information, they could still include it. My point
is just that it's probably wrong nowadays to have the date as mandatory
but the revision as optional, when the opposite would seem to make more
sense.

statagus is currently FTBFS because it isn't using the newer libpng

this soon.


stratagus builds now. It hasn't been really tested though as there is no 
game for it that is in Fedora and only one of the games listed as playable 
on the project web site didn't require game data from a commercial game.


That game didn't work, but maybe because the Fedora version of stratagus 
is behind upstream. The error didn't look related to png.

I'm not suggesting you have rpm sort on git hashes.  The release string 
is required to have a numeric prefix before the date and/or git hash. 
I'm talking about removing the date part of it so that you still have a 
numeric prefix (e.g. 0.5) before the git hash.  Ordering happens on the 
0.X part, not on the git hash.

No, you don't.  All you know is that "20120106" is the date the checkout 
was made.  The checkout could be code from 2 years ago, where as the 
checkout that was done on 20110610 was of code that was at the time 
brand new (and then later determined to be too full of errors to 
continue using).


The date things were checked out is pretty meaningless.  More context is 
needed, even on SCMs without a canonical revision identifier.  You'd 
want to know what branch or tag the checkout was from.  That kind of 
detail goes in the changelog, not shoved into the release string.

I'd agree, but git hashes don't do in sortable order.  I mean, they

But do we specifically say what you're supposed to put in the date 
field?  Is it the date the hash was created?  The date the hash was 
added to a specific branch?  The date the hash was checked out by the 
Fedora dev and built in the build system?


The guidelines say at one place that the date used should be the date 
the snapshot was made, which can be pretty disconnected from the date 
the hash was created or merged.


A date without clear rules or context is just meaningless digits.

The Release tag serves multiple audiences.

For packagers and developers of the software, the revision id portion is
usually what we want but (as tgl pointed out) the date still comes in handy
if upstream changes their SCM.

For endusers, the date is more handy for seeing whether the package is based
on newer or older upstream versions than the scm's hash.

Actually parted 3.1 fixes a major bug in 3.0: that it sends error
messages to stdout which makes it virtually impossible to parse the
output of the parted command in programs (RHBZ#745606).

Please no, it had changed that caused problems when it was bumped in

So, I got 0.6.0 building against Rawhide. There's a bit of a problem,
though - it doesn't build against F17.

F17 has parted 3.0. Rawhide has parted 3.1. parted 3.1 restored some
bits of API that 3.0 removed, and that qtparted uses. So it can build
against 3.1, but not 3.0.

I don't have a Rawhide install handy. I just tried upgrading a VM to
Rawhide but I can't get X to run on it at all. So I can't test the
build, because I can't run Rawhide and I can't build qtparted in a way
that'll work on F17 so I can test it there.

So reluctantly I've pushed the build through to Rawhide blind. If anyone
has a functioning Rawhide install and can test it, I'd really appreciate
it. Particularly I'd like to know if the usermode stuff works - i.e. if
you try and run it as a regular user, does it prompt for root password
and correctly run as root? Also is it still _necessary_ - if you bypass
the usermode stuff and run qtparted directly as a regular user (just
call /usr/sbin/qtparted directly), does it handle privilege escalation
on its own when necessary? If so, we can drop the usermode guff. Aside
from that, just the usual 'does it actually run/work' smoke test.
thanks!

(I don't know if it'd make sense to bump parted to 3.1 in F17. Probably
not.)

I really think the 0.n part is sufficient for this. You can always just
bump it to avoid, really, any kind of difficulty. For example, the very
case that prompted my aside: I just had to bump the 0.n part one digit
to ensure that correcting the rest of the tag - which involved
substantial changes, which would have ordered completely differently
without the 0.n part - wouldn't cause any problems.

FWIW, quite a few of the packages in Bill's FTBFS list have dependencies
on libpng-compat, which makes me suspicious that the libpng API changes
might be the reason (or one reason) why they FTBFS.  I've spent this
afternoon preparing patches for the remaining old-libpng dependencies
that are *not* on that list.  I'm willing to help out with libpng issues
in these too, assuming that their maintainers care about keeping them
alive.

I'm still hoping to kill libpng-compat (and libtiff-compat) before we
branch F18.

The good thing about putting the date in there is that it's likely to
help the NEVR sort correctly, whereas git hashes for instance will
certainly not help.  Upstreams have been known to change SCMs from time
to time, as well.  I realize we're supposed to bump the "0.n" part,

It's not even that.  With CVS you could have done a checkout of a tag
which could be quite old compared to the day's date you did the
checkout.  Using the date somewhat assumes you're doing a checkout of
HEAD, which isn't always the case.  I'd move that embedding the date in

There's a 0.6.0 release available from the sourceforge Files page. It
claims to support parted 3.0 and later. I'll grab that and see if I can

Just for the record - Jon went ahead and applied Jonathan's patch, but
it did not correctly follow the pre-release naming guidelines:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:NamingGuidelines#Pre-Release_packages

I've gone ahead and pushed a further build which simply corrects this.
The incorrect NEVR that Jonathan's patch included was
0.1.git.20120726.a22cde2%{?dist} . The date is supposed to come before
'git', and there are not supposed to be periods between 'git',
'20120726' and 'a22cde2'. I corrected these errors and bumped the rev,
so the new build uses a NEVR of 0.2.20120726gita22cde2%{?dist} .

(FWIW, I'm not sure the guidelines are appropriate for Modern Times; the
date of checkout was only really the most important thing back in the
days of CVS, where there was really no such thing as a canonical
revision for the entire project. These days every modern RCS, as far as
I'm aware, includes the notion of a canonical revision - yet we still
*require* the date and make it *optional* to include a specific revision
ID, even though the revision ID is clearly more accurate and specific
than a date. Maybe we ought to make the revision the key thing to
include, and make the date optional, except in the special case of the
few projects still using CVS. Would the packaging committee be
interested in a proposal? Am I wrong? The date is useful for making it
immediately obvious how up-to-date a package is, I guess, but it has no
really key function for differentiating builds any more.)

That would be much appreciated, but it was meant to be more of a general
question about what the procedure is for blocking FTBFS packages.

Anyhow, if you're happy to apply the fix and Lubo doesn't mind, I sure
won't complain.  A number of my students love numptyphysics and I'd hate
to see it lost.

Yes, I saw that thanks.

Re rpmdepsize, there is a build problem in F17 which I'm fixing.  I
can't fix this for F18 yet because we're waiting for an upstream fix
in a dependent package.

For these packages, I have filed patches to fix them in the bugzilla bugs.

I have taken over this one.

See the discussion in the v3 thread, just today. It was discovered that
there are a number of packages that have been FTBFS since F15 or earlier
but which weren't previously included in the list.

Wooaa there, this is the first time I'm aware this one FTBFS.
(I'm sure there may have been a BZ, but I have 1000s of BZs open
and the Bugzilla "UI" makes them impossible to cope with.)

This one won't build in F18 because it requires ocaml-sexplib
where we're still waiting for an upstream fix, and that's
something that cannot be helped at the moment.

I will do a F17 build soon, fixing things if necessary.

Rich.

[ACTION REQUIRED v4] Retiring packages for F-18

2012-07-25 Thread Bill Nottingham
Updated with new list of packages that have failed to build.

Before we branch for Fedora 18, as is custom, we will block currently
orphaned packages and packages that have failed to build since Fedora 16.

The following packages are currently orphaned, or fail to build. If
you have a need for one of these packages, please pick them up.
If no one claims any of these packages, they will be blocked before
we branch for Fedora 18. That is currently scheduled to happen on
or around August 7th.

Note that if you're receiving this mail directly, it's because you are
a co-maintainer of one of these packages. Please work with your
comaintainers to take up maintenance if you desire.
