Just my 2 cents here, I'd seek another solution for this but implemented as a plugin or an option of dnf, whereas introducing new subpkg of large amount of packages sounds tedious to me.

Is fedpkg designed to be usable for online only?
Hi, After using the new pkgdb2 API based fedpkg, I'd like to ask a question here: Is fedpkg designed to be usable when online only? Well.. If I cut disable my connection, fedpkg switch-branch doesn't work: Could not execute switch_branch: len([]) != len(['ssh: Could not resolve hostname pkgs.fedoraproject.org: Name or service not known', '', '', 'and the repository exists.']) ERROR:rpkg:Could not execute switch_branch: len([]) != len(['ssh: Could not resolve hostname pkgs.fedoraproject.org: Name or service not known', '', '', 'and the repository exists.']) I really don't think it's a good idea if I can't work offline. And rpkg throws 2 same info here is also a bug, but it's not so annoying. Again on the switch-branch, it's pretty slow now somewhere because it depends on the ssh authentication which requires the active internet connection. Unfortunately in some cases connecting to the fedoraproject.org is not fast as imagined, accordingly it even took me 1.5 min to switch the branch just now. But in the past I don't have any problem here. So is it the philosophy of new fedpkg? Thanks.

Re: HEADSUP: json-c SONAME BUMP
Hi all, Thanks for your comment. Those 2 updates was already canceled yesterday as I've realized the problem after Sandro's bug report. TL;DR: Updates revoked, rawhide+f21 reverted to 0.12 without bump, deciding if we need to add epoch to revert back to 0.11. It's tricky now. 1. Upstream changelog: * Make the json_tokener_errors array local. It has been deprecated for a while, and json_tokener_error_desc() should be used instead. Relative commit: [2] Porting the code is needed for other upstreams. For the soname bump I've opened a PR on github but since upstream are inactive since May so I don't expect they will reply to/dicuss it. 2. As requested by some people[3], 0.12 is not compatible with some existing packages in the repo, thus I think it's time postpone the update. As there are a few hours before today's rawhide compose, I'm going to revert back the soname bump in -4 build, now they're done[3][4]. Thanks.

Mono3.4 in Fedora 21, or troll?
Hi, Can someone tell me the status of the mono 3.4 proposal? I contacted chkr last year and he said it's a big task.

And I don't know why 3.4 was proposed by a stranger this year again(someone is not even a packager yet with no communication to the development).

Re: Mono3.4 in Fedora 21, or troll?
I haven't seen any efforts from Claudio or whosoever to rebuild all mono packages (it's a MUST as Mono is not a _small_ package, he could use koji or his personal computer to do that) and feedback the results (most of status from the change page are "Need Test", I think it's nonsense and ridiculous), and I didn't see at least 1 ownership of him in pkgdb (it's not petty). Looks like getting sponsored is quite easy, one requested a incomplete feature and when we are close to the freeze one said he "need help to be a packager". I don't want to see that mono is updated with a version bump only, that doesn't make sense to me, because there is no tests, no preliminaries, only a page with full of TODO items. Nevertheless, I still want to tell you that the latest Mono is 3.6. You should use 3.6 instead of 3.4 to avoid the crap: https://bugzilla.xamarin.com/show_bug.cgi?id=18690 Next time I hope you can step in with a detailed plan/schedule. You were too hasty IMO.

It appears to be that ld doesn't work in that scenario, but I don't know why on ARM it fails and shared library wasn't created... So please try replace executable="ld" with executable="gcc" in for linking purpose, and add -shared to .

Patch it to versioned is wrong beause this software will neither work nor be dependency-clean. You should put it underneath /usr/lib%{?__isa_bits}/%{name}, it's the common solution.

Re: Non-%doc files in %{_defaultdocdir}?
Examples can be put underneath %_datadir/$(PKGNAME)/examples IMO, but %_docdir is not the right place, examples like source code e.g. .c/.cxx can be put as 644 perms in docdir, plain texts like config examples can also be stored at there with 644 perms, too. GUI behavior need to be modified if it checks the docdir without any thinking. :) -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
