[Mageia-dev] Queation on importing mdv2010.2 packages
Hi. I am browsing trough the bugzilla, looking for what people want to have package, and I notice they are missing some packages that exists in mdv. but i am unsure on what to do with the mkrel when importing mdv packages. Some of the packages may have, say %mkrel 4. Do I increase the mkrel, or should I reset it to 1 when importing and pushing to Cauldron? -- Johnny A.

Let it to 4 to let the possibility to upgrade from mandriva, I think! -Original Message- From: Johnny A.

I'm not sure which will be newer for rpm 4mdv or 4.mga, but you are on the safe side, when increasing it to 5. Oliver -- Oliver Burger aka obgr_seneca Mageia contributor

Yup as others have said it's likely best to bump release up one when importing. My only comment would be to ensure you import the srpm from the mirrors, not checked out from subversion as the former will contain the full changelog which we want to preserve. Also, please use -l Imported Mandriva package (or similar wording) when calling putsrpm to correctly attribute the source.

I always do that, whenever possible. :-)= Also, please use -l Imported Mandriva package (or similar wording) when calling putsrpm to correctly attribute the source. Aha. I've been looking for that switch, and the documentation says to use -m, which it then claim doesn't exist. So I've used svn propedit to fix it, untill now. -- Johnny A.

Yeah we should really fix that the help is wrong on that regard. I've also wanted to add svn:ignore props when uploading/deleteing binaries too, but meh, I've enough other things to do!
