Machal,
Did you have a look at the {zypp,yast}-backport [0][1] repositories in OBS?
They compile zypper and yast also against Fedora and some feedback about those
repos would in fact be great.
No, I didn't know about them before. But I can see target Fedora (in
version 8, I want current 9) with almost empty content ;-(. Only few
packages are there. But this is probably Build Service problem, not your
spec files
Update: There is Fedora 9 now ;-)
Did you have anything special to do? Or could you mainly just go ahead and
compile?
Mostly I just compile from sources. But about yast2-iscsi-client I must
change and comment some distribution dependent code.
Looking forward to hear your input (as one of the maintainers of those repos)
I have some ideas. For instance we need for non-rpm distributions (yes,
we want "expand" also there ;-)) custom pkg-bindings, and for Package[s]
functions use map instead of string or list :
instead of
if( !Package::InstallMsg( "open-iscsi",
_("<p>To configure the iSCSI initiator, the <b>%1</b>
package must be installed.</p>") +
_("<p>Install it now?</p>")) )
{
Popup::Error( Message::CannotContinueWithoutPackagesInstalled() );
we should use
if( !Package::InstallMsg( $["suse":"open-iscsi",
"redhat":"iscsi-initiator-utils",
_("<p>To configure the iSCSI initiator, the <b>%1</b>
package must be installed.</p>") +
_("<p>Install it now?</p>")) )
{
Popup::Error( Message::CannotContinueWithoutPackagesInstalled() );
etc.
Bye,
Michal
