January 2016 - packaging - Fedora Mailing-Lists

by Damian Ivanov

Hi, I registered on rpm.org so I comment on http://rpm.org/ticket/853 that it's fixed in 4.13 http://www.rpm.org/wiki/PackagerDocs/BooleanDependencies unfortunately this seems harder than expected. Anyone knows how to comment there? Best Regards, Damian

[Fedora-php-devel-list] Change proposal: drop runtime dependency on PEAR

by Remi Collet

Hi, For now all our PECL extensions have a dependency on php-pear. PEAR is mostly dead and most user don't want to install it. (The project is not dead, it even work with PHP 7, but most users have switched to composer) In fact, the pecl command is only used in scriptlets for extension (un)registration (to allow manual pecl/pear usage). Really nothing is required at runtime. So I'd like to remove dependency on /usr/bin/pecl for PECL extension. Here is a proposal for new scriptlets # when pear installed alone, after us %triggerin -- %{?scl_prefix}php-pear if [ -x %{__pecl} ] ; then %{pecl_install} %{pecl_xmldir}/%{name}.xml >/dev/null || : fi # posttrans as pear can be installed after us %posttrans if [ -x %{__pecl} ] ; then %{pecl_install} %{pecl_xmldir}/%{name}.xml >/dev/null || : fi %postun if [ $1 -eq 0 -a -x %{__pecl} ] ; then %{pecl_uninstall} %{pecl_name} >/dev/null || : fi Notice: pear still required at build time for macro definition. Notice; this is already used to also fix a circular dep issue (php-pecl-jsonc => php-pear => php-cli => php-common => php-pecl-jsonc) Minor issue, /var/lib/pear/pkgxml (%{pecl_xmldir}) is own by php-pear. So we also need to move this directory to php-common to avoid unowned dir when pear is not installed. Comments, before opening a FPC ticket ? Remi.

advice on packaging name for MetricsGrimoire MailingListStats

by Matthew Miller

I'm interested in packaging up a mailing list statistics program from the MetricsGrimoire project. The tarball is named MetricsGrimoire-MailingListStats-0.4.2-64-gb0664d1.tar.gz which suggests "MetricsGrimoire-MailingListStats" as the package name. That's pretty unwieldy though. Another option might be just MailingListStats. But then, the docs refer to "MLStats", and the primary program is "mlstats". So.... * MetricsGrimoire-MailingListStats * MailingListStats * MLStats * mlstats ? I've reread the naming guidelines and... yeah, judgement call. I'm kind of inclined to go with mlstats for brevity and lower-case aesthetic considerations. Opinions? -- Matthew Miller <mattdm(a)fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader

Versioned weak dependencies

by Shawn Iwinski

How are versioned weak dependencies handled? Can I "Suggests"/"Recommends" min and max versions or can I only supply the main package and use "Conflicts" to enforce version ranges? For example: Suggests: pkg >= 1.0 Suggests: pkg < 2.0 or Suggests: pkg Conflicts: pkg < 1.0 Conflicts: pkg >= 2.0

Doubt about a change in upstream for a package

by William Moreno

Hello I have python-slugify ( https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/package/rpms/python-slugify/), originally a dependency for python-frappe. Looks like python frappe do not need this lib any more: https://github.com/frappe/frappe/pull/1521 And I have a request to drop the support of this library (there is not activity cince 2012) for this one: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-slugify https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1298644 Which one is the correct procedure in this case? Can I simply retire the package in all the currents branchs and open the review request for the new library and request the change in the CVS? Any way this will be a new package than will require a Fedora Review.
