Re: [Mageia-dev] Dev Team Call To Action...
Hi; Sorry to be a bit late in answering, but I have been a bit busy. I guess I can help out with PHP for mageia-app-db, so if there is some more information about it and how to coordinate, count me in :) Muhammad -- هذه الرسالة بما تحتويه خاصةٌ بالمرسلة إليه. الرجاء اﻹتصال بي وحذفها مباشرةً في حال تم استلامها عن طريق الخطأ..
[Mageia-dev] Caution about using src.rpm from mdv since today
Hi all, now that rpm packages are migrated to use rpm5 file triggers please double check before backporting mdv commits into mageia. thanks in advance

on rpms like gnome-icon-theme we have :
# automatic gtk icon cache update on rpm installs/removals
# (see http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Rpm_filetriggers)
install -d %buildroot%{_var}/lib/rpm/filetriggers
cat %buildroot%{_var}/lib/rpm/filetriggers/gtk-icon-cache-gnome.filter EOF
^./usr/share/icons/gnome/
EOF
cat %buildroot%{_var}/lib/rpm/filetriggers/gtk-icon-cache-gnome.script EOF
#!/bin/sh
if [ -x /usr/bin/gtk-update-icon-cache ]; then
/usr/bin/gtk-update-icon-cache --force --quiet /usr/share/icons/gnome
fi
EOF
chmod 755 %buildroot%{_var}/lib/rpm/filetriggers/gtk-icon-cache-gnome.script
If you don't know what a file trigger is :
Filetriggers allow to run some scripts when some file has been added or removed.
The typical use cases are:
updating /etc/ld.so.cache when some libraries have been
added/removed in /usr/lib or /lib
running update-menus to update menus of non-XDG compliant desktops
when some *.desktop have been added/removed in /usr/share/applications
Now this is handled differently in rpm5 so those filetriggers have been removed.
so if you plan to sync those rpms from mandriva to mageia :
uClibc
apache-conf
rarian
GConf2
php-pear
desktop-common-data
glibc
nspluginwrapper
desktop-file-utils
oxygen-icon-theme
vdr
grub2
ibus-table
nagios
PLEASE TAKE CARE TO NOT REMOVE THE FILETRIGGERS AND NOT BACKPORT RPM5
NEW FILETRIGGER METHOD.
In a neat future ( rpm 4.9.0 ) we will remove some filetriggers from
our rpms because it will be handled. But this will have to be looked
in detail.
i hope that this time i explained better :)

[Mageia-dev] build system tools
Hi, about the build system, with Mandriva we had ssh access to build boxes under Fedora I can use fedpkg to either make a local build into a clean chroot or to ask for a scratch-build on the build system from a local srpm (scratch-build from a local srpm is really nice when testing a new package) will we have something similar soon ?

You could try setup iurt locally. But we don't have access to mageia packages for now... And Mandriva package might be harder to set up. Else you can try to hack mock so that it calls urpmi rather than yum and create your own /etc/mock/mageia.cfg But you'll hit the same problem : we don't have access to mageia repository yet

We do have mgarepo and iurt, and I think e should aim to improves theses tools. But there is no plan to have chroot for developpers in the short term, as we lack servers ( and time ) for that. In the long term, yes, we will do something for that ( ie giving access to build box ). For now, we plan to open the mirror soon now the first part is complete, so people could at least install their own chroot/test compute whatever. -- Michael Scherer

Building from a local src.rpm can probably be done (like in a lower priority queue) but we need to see how long to keep the packages, how much disk and bandwidth would be needed, etc. In the meantime doing a local build using the same system (iurt) is easier given that you have a fast enough mirror (and no download quota...).
