Re: is there any rpm package for utmps, skalibs?

[ericwq057]

Sorry for everyone.

Finally, I switch from QQMail client to MacOS Mai. I notice what’s the damage 
my previous mail made. Sorry again.

Hope this time, I did not make some trouble for the mail list.

Here is the draft spec for skalibs. 
https://github.com/ericwq/rpms/blob/main/skalibs/skalibs.spec.

it will build 4 pacakges.

I would add to that that the input method is probably misconfigured. Pressing 
the spacebar to separate words or components of words should not generate a 
non-breaking space.

Your mail client (QQMail 2.x, from the headers) is either 
misconfigured or broken. i see the below, because your emails have 
only one MIME part, specified by the "Content-Type" header as 
"text/plain", even though it's obviously "text/html".

Thanks; that's an overlooked (but fairly serious) bug, and has just been
fixed in the repository where the code come from.

Which is the explicitly [1][2] only way it is expected to be used.

I have no idea what it's doing in the hidden fn-builds script, but from
what's in the spec file it is using sudo to run chmod on system
directories and make them owned by the building user before actually
running make install without DESTDIR, which I'll repeat is installing
stuff in the systems directories and should never be needed;
if something in skaware does not support DESTDIR that should be fixed
but given alpine packages build just fine I don't expect any such
problem, and such trick is just bad practice.

Also, if I'm reading this correctly it actually make /usr/bin 777
because of flawed logic (stat -c %a /bin instead of %{_bin} (= /usr/bin);
given /bin is normally a symlink to /usr/bin that stat will return 777
and the later chmod to "restore" the mode will corrupt it), so anyone
running this will have opened their system for being taken over
(and it possibly also doesn't chown back to root? But hopefully it's
only ever been run in throw-away containers so nobody would notice
anyway..)


Anyway, I don't care if people shoot themselves in the foot, even if
they're just running a script given by a stranger without checking what
it does, I won't reply to this thread any further.

It is moving files *into* %{buildroot}, not *out of*. The converse
is done in the `build' section.  EPICS is a packaging-unfriendly
software framework, which resulted in forementioned ugly tricks being
involved.  I just reused the ugly tricks to make a monolithic package
that contains skalibs, execline and s6.

Re: is there any rpm package for utmps, skalibs?

[Peter Shkenev]

Hello,

I have RPM spec file for skalibs. It may be outdated though, and it's
definitely not the example of how specs should be written.

Re: is there any rpm package for utmps, skalibs?

[Laurent Bercot]

my first question is: does skalibs support glibc? alpine only support 
musl.


 Yes. skalibs supports everything that makes a good attempt to be
POSIX-conformant, so that includes glibc.

You should never need sudo in the install section of a spec file --
you install to %{buildroot}, not directly to the system's bin/lib
directories!

I'm not sure how that actually find files to bundle in the rpm
afterwards...

Attached is spec code that builds a monolithic RPM package for skalibs,
execline and s6, tested under CentOS 7 and Rocky Linux 8; it needs to be
used with .  It uses ugly
tricks, most importantly invoking sudo to move files from/to root-owned
directories, and is therefore mostly intended for reference purpose
(apart from where it is actually used -- part of some EPICS-related
work which I plan to publish later this year).

 Hi Wang,

 Your e-mail client seems to be broken. It sends HTML entities as 
text/plain,
and it makes the content of your mail unreadable. Please fix this, if 
you can.


 From what I can understand, you're looking for rpm packages for skalibs
and utmps. I don't know if there are any; I haven't had any contact from 
a

Fedora maintainer or user.

 If anyone's interested in making rpm packages for skaware, or in 
helping

Wang make them, please show yourself :)
