New build system notes... - buildsys - Fedora mailing-lists

10 Jul 2005


      Hi,
So, a few quick notes.  If you're setting it up, you'll need a couple things:
Python 2.3 or 2.4
   (consider issues with 2.2 bugs, I'll fix them)
sqlite
sqlite-python
mock from CVS as of 07-01-2005
lighttpd (1)
yum >= 2.2.1
pyOpenSSL (2)
(1) This is technically optional, and use of lighttpd is off by default.  
However, the RPM currently requires lighttpd, but you can "--nodeps" the plague 
packages to ignore this.  We should fix this.
(2) IMPORTANT: You'll need to patch pyOpenSSL with the patch attached to this 
email, which enables threadsafety for pyOpenSSL.  Without the patch, it _will_ 
not work and the build server will randomly crash.
