by Björn Esser

Hi there! I have a question about this review: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=889261 Is it ok to havearched BuildRequires? In my opinion they should NOT be arched, because of the reasons given in the comments of the bug. Cheers, Björn

repmgr

by Martín Marqués

Hi, I built a repmgr package and I noticed that Fedora doesn't have a repmgr package in the distro. What would be needed to add the repmgr to the distro? I could volunteer as a packager for repmgr.

Selective updates of sub-packages

by Matthias Runge

Hi, recently, I stumbled upon the question, if we'd support partial updates of packages. In the specific case, both python-django and python3-django were installed, and the update via yum update python-django failed.[1] The underlying issue is here, that python3-django and python-django share the same bash completion definition. I moved that out to a sub-package both python-django and python3-django can safely require, thus, the conflict is solved. Nevertheless, on the partial upgrade case, a conflict can still occur. Thoughts? [1] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2014-4393/python-django-1.... -- Matthias Runge <mrunge(a)matthias-runge.de>

python module not installed

by "Germán A. Racca"

Hi list, I'm updating a python package and I have the following issue. As per Fedora packaging guidelines, we should use: %build %{__python2} setup.py build %install %{__python2} setup.py install -O1 --skip-build --root %{buildroot} which is fine to me. But with this new version of my package, the module doesn't get copied if --skip-build is present (it only copies the egg): running install running install_lib warning: install_lib: 'build/lib' does not exist -- no Python modules to install ... What should I do? If I remove --skip-build, it works fine, but I'm not sure if I can do that in the spec file. Thanks in advance, Germán. -- Germán A.

Fwd: Broken dependencies: mup

by Greg Bailey

Hi all, I'm confused by this email, and what action I'm supposed to take. I don't use Fedora much (mostly EPEL on CentOS systems), but I did deploy a Fedora VM and update it to Rawhide. I've tried performing "yum install mup", grabbing the source RPM and rebuilding, "rpm -V", etc. and all succeed without any dependency errors. What are the "broken dependencies" in this email referring to? [root@localhost ~]# yum whatprovides libfltk.so.1.3 Loaded plugins: langpacks fltk-1.3.2-4.fc21.i686 : C++ user interface toolkit Repo : rawhide Matched from: Provides : libfltk.so.1.3 Apologies if this is a FAQ; if it is, maybe we can put a link in these autogenerated emails to a Wiki document that explains what the packager is supposed to do upon receiving this type of email? Thanks! Greg Bailey -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Broken dependencies: mup Date: Wed, 19 Mar 2014 15:41:27 +0000 (UTC) From: buildsys(a)fedoraproject.org To: mup-owner(a)fedoraproject.org mup has broken dependencies in the rawhide tree: On x86_64: mup-6.2-2.fc21.x86_64 requires libfltk_images.so.1.3()(64bit) mup-6.2-2.fc21.x86_64 requires libfltk.so.1.3()(64bit) On i386: mup-6.2-2.fc21.i686 requires libfltk_images.so.1.3 mup-6.2-2.fc21.i686 requires libfltk.so.1.3 On armhfp: mup-6.2-2.fc21.armv7hl requires libfltk_images.so.1.3 mup-6.2-2.fc21.armv7hl requires libfltk.so.1.3 Please resolve this as soon as possible.

kernel debug-info build

by Khaled Ahmed

Hi, I am not sure if I am posting my question to the correct mailing list, please forgive me if it isn’t and guide me to the correct mailing list: In my fedora box I can find the kernel debugging symbols located at /usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/3.11.10-301.fc20.x86_64 My question: How to generate this information for my custom build kernel to be used in probing it using SystemTap? I know about the option “CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO” in my .config file but I can’t see its influence after the build, I am expecting to see the “.debug” files somewhere. Again sorry for the inconvenience if this isn’t the place to ask this question and thanks in advance if it is :-) Best Regards, ~Khaled Ahmed
