Require .olpc in rpms in ~/public_rpms/F14?
Hi Daniel, to ensure we keep track (and limit) of what non-Fedora rpms make it to the builds, should the rpm collection step... ? - only grab rpms that say .olpc - complain about rpms that don't... This would mean that in the package listing, it's non-ambiguous what packages we're carrying. cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- Software Architect - OLPC - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

What would be the preferred place to put 'olpc' in the rpm name? Between
the distribution version and the 'arch'? Like:
Version: 0.92.0
Release: 1%{?dist}.olpc
sugar-0.92.0-1.fc14.olpc.noarch.rpm
And another check could be to make sure there is a srpm available for
each package.
Regards,
Simon

Yes - dsd links to

Yes! No inclusion unless it sees srpm. To script it...
SRPM=`rpm -q --queryformat '%{SOURCERPM}' -p $RPM`

FWIW, the original intent was *only* to allow SRPMS in the dropbox; we were going to explicitly rebuild the RPMs from the SRPMS in mock and use only the built RPMs. In addition to ensuring compliance with licensing provisions, this was also intended as a developer aid: at the time, it was often easier to generate a correct patched SRPM from the source than it was to create an appropriate and up-to-date mock environment for the build, and often developer RPMs were built in subtly-incompatible environments. I don't know if those concerns are still valid at the present time. Like many things from long ago, the build from SRPM feature was incomplete when it lost its developers. It might be the proper time to resurrect it, although perhaps having RPMs which don't match the SRPM isn't a problem any more. --scott -- ( http://cscott.net/ ) ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
