[opensuse] Package manager update tomorrow ...
Hi, we will most likely do a first big package manager update tomorrow. The update does include a large number of bugfixes and some first performance improvements. We will do for sure another update later, with further performance optimizations and patch rpm support. You can test it already, when you add the following URL in the YaST Installation Sources module and run the YaST Online Update module afterwards: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/aj/10.1-packagemanagement-update-test/ The online update will only update the package manager at the first run. The second run will apply all other patches. You should also temporary disable your existing update source in this module, since we know that the current repository meta data is broken. This will be fixed with this update tomorrow as well. All existing updates are in the test repository as well. You can find a README inside the directory above with more details how to test this. Please give us any kind of feedback. We know that we are the package manager is not yet yet perfect, but this update should improve the situation a lot :) bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

There are several perl scripts out there to do that. Unfortunately none of them works out of the box on our old hypermail layout.

This is the opportunity to help openSUSE project to archive some important goal. I need someone to help me out with fixing one of the scripts below or write something from scratch so that we are able to convert old archives to the new format. Here is a gzipped tar archive with an old hypermail archive from lists.suse.com: http://lists4.opensuse.org/1997-Aug.tar.gz Here are links to some hypermail to mbox scripts: http://archive.ncsa.uiuc.edu/lists/mhonarc/oct98/msg00055.html http://www.tifaware.com/perl/hm2mbox/ http://www.bayesianinvestor.com/hypetombox.pl It would be very cool if someone other than me could do that.

What I will be working on is not so much a re-write of the script. because I can't do perl, but a (very ugly) bash aproach to edit the dates, although at this mment I have no idea how to do changes on a previous line or how to get the say of the week. sed -e s/Bogus date/Fri Jun 9 01:55:45 2006/g mbox.mbox 3.mbox That seems to work at least, although it is the wrong dat (DUH).

Re: [opensuse] Package manager update tomorrow ...
Adrian Schröter wrote: Hi, we will most likely do a first big package manager update tomorrow. The update does include a large number of bugfixes and some first performance improvements. We will do for sure another update later, with further performance optimizations and patch rpm support. You can test it already, when you add the following URL in the YaST Installation Sources module and run the YaST Online Update module afterwards: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/aj/10.1-packagemanagement-update-test/ The online update will only update the package manager at the first run. The second run will apply all other patches. You should also temporary disable your existing update source in this module, since we know that the current repository meta data is broken. This will be fixed with this update tomorrow as well. All existing updates are in the test repository as well. You can find a README inside the directory above with more details how to test this. Please give us any kind of feedback. We know that we are the package manager is not yet yet perfect, but this update should improve the situation a lot :) bye adrian Hi, just tested the workflow. Here goes the feedback/work done. The PC used was a P4, 2.4GHz, 512 RAM. Tests began at around 23:40 UTC, finished around 01:00 UTC. This in the case of you changing files during this timeframe. ( Work in accordance to the README file at ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/aj/10.1-packagemanagement-update-test/ ) As root: 1. * start yast2 installation source via the yast2 control center or directly as yast2 inst_source. Add as additional software catalog: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/aj/10.1-packagemanagement-update-test (or use one of the mirrors once they are updated) and then leave the module via Finish. It will take some minutes to download data and setup the catalog. Added catalog, with RefreshEnabled. Base catalog No RefreshDisabled. Clicked Finish and hang for maybe 20mn. Had to kill the process. Zen-updater was active. Anyhow, it detected 28 software updates. (libzypp update was there, though) So i shut zen-updater not to interfere. Added again the catalog, and now, it took some time, but yast2 inst_source closed nicely, apart saying the catalog was already added. 2. * start yast2 online update via the yast2 control center or directly as yast2 online_update. The patch summary should show a couple of patches and select only the libzypp update (with a black mark). Press Accept to apply the update. It will take some time to download packages and install them. OK. just installed libzypp update. Went fine after some time.

OK, I have an extremely slow working script. What you can do are two things. 1) edit ./hypetombox.pl and especialy the lines with $received in it. This would be the best option. Unfortunatly I am unable to do it. I can guess what things mean and it did not produce anythin workable. :-( 2) edit the *.html files and then especially the lines above. I have something working, but it is sloow. It works, but slow. Two directories a total of 1m41.389s The script I have made also converts each directory to a $DIR.mbox file. It is available at http://houghi.org/script/SUSEmail.sh It should be enough info to change it into something fast. houghi -- This openSUSE mailinglist is about the community.
