Hi,
I've packaged pybind11 which is a seamless interface between Python
and C++11. This is a headers-only package, which would make it
noarch... However, it also carries a testsuite, which - of course - is
important to run on all architectures.
Is there some nifty trick to trick the build system to build the
package on all arches simultaneously while making the headers package
noarch?
If there were any binaries produced by the package, this would be
easily accomplished, but I don't think there's any sense in shipping
e.g. the testsuite just to make the headers noarch.
(Of course, should pybind11 develop a runtime library, then
pybind11-devel would also include symlinks to the library, making it
no longer a noarch package!)
Since you would build it like any python-package (python2 / python3
sub-packages), it's pretty easy to run the testsuite on all arches:
Simply move the "BuildArch: noarch" from the main-package to all
sub-packages.
Example:
# This package ships no binaries, thus no debuginfo is available.
%global debug_package %{nil}
Name: python-pybind11
…
BuildRequires: …
# No BuildArch here!!!
%package -n python2-pybind11
…
BuildArch: noarch
…
%package -n python3-pybind11
…
BuildArch: noarch
…
%check
#Run tests here.
This will make the package be build on all arches, but simply generate
noarch-packages.
Cheers
Björn
