[Fwd: Re: [Cooker] BM]
What does the BM in the changelog of RPM's mean?? I think is Big Move ... but may also be Big Mess ;-) I'm sorry, but I disagree with you. Yes, not all packages are "done" yet. The packages that have been done work fine, and in the mean time it's a bit dusty (ever seen a clean construction site?). Anyway, this _could_ quickly change. Take on the challenge and make the list of "todo" packages shorter... http://d10179.dtk.chello.nl/build/cooker/alpha/BM/ http://d10179.dtk.chello.nl/build/cooker/i586/BM/ Applying the macro's isn't that difficult. I do the following (I presume you have setup your useraccount for building as described in the Mandrake RPM HOWTO): 1) I install the current src.rpm rpm -i package.version.src.rpm 2) I run my m.sh script on the specfile m.sh package.spec The first vi editor that is started shows the proposed "patch" to the .spec file. I normally leave it the way it is, but make sure the entries in the %changelog section aren't modified. The second vi editor brings up the patched .spec file. I then bump up the mdk number, add a changelog entry (I beleive people at mandrake have a macro for that, can that be put into the rpm-howto too?) and check the rest of the .spec file. It should be compliant to what is stated in the mdk-rpm-howto. After you exit the second vi editor the package is rebuilt. The output is saved into package.spec.out (nice for later viewing). After it finishes building it tails the .out file. If everyhting goes well it should show an exit 0. You can then answer "y" three times and the .spec .spec.orig .spec.diff and .src.rpm files are copied to your "output" directory (better modify the scrip to suit your needs). This is how I do it. Some packages take little time, others can be very tedious... comments / improvements on this script are welcome (I'm not a scripting hero). And thanks to Chmouel for his perl script.

RE: [Cooker] BM
I was just waiting for someone to say this.. No, it stands for Big Move, it is moving the docs and the man to /usr/share/man and /usr/share/doc and almost forces a re-packaging of every package.

But: I wish my rpm would start building packages with the files in /usr/share/. Which packages do i need to have updated to which version in order to make this happen? Until this weekend i used to be running a quite up2date cooker box, but things have been going _SO_ fast since then... Stefan

Re: [Cooker] BM
also, man and info is important. I have a better sugegstion... how about we update the files in /usr/lib/rpm/alpha-mandrake-linux/ (/usr/lib/rpm/alpha-mandrake-linux/macros) to reflect the BM situation? Stefan

I have a better sugegstion... how about we update the files in /usr/lib/rpm/alpha-mandrake-linux/ (/usr/lib/rpm/alpha-mandrake-linux/macros) to reflect the BM situation? Well... easier said than done I guess. i've been looking through the buildoutputs and what strikes me is that I can't find the statement which installs these files. It kind of seems that they are made during the %install and installed right away. What I think is weird is that on intel boxen the macros file is OK, on alpha it isn't. In the Makefile I think this part is responsible for installing it into the dir: chmod u+x ./installplatform; DESTDIR="$(DESTDIR)" pkglibdir="$(pkglib dir)" ./installplatform rpmrc macros platform ; \ $(mkinstalldirs) $(DESTDIR)/$(prefix)/src/RPM/RPMS/alpha ;;\ Whatever is going on in there is abracadabra to me, maybe Chmou (or an other Mandrake wizard) can shine his (/her?) magick over it... (I saw chmou's name on a lot of those patches -- he must know how it works ;-) ). Stefan van der Eijk
