June 2013 - packaging - Fedora Mailing-Lists

by Christopher Meng

Hi, I'm packaging serf into Fedora. Here is the review request: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=973904 However, the reviewer said that this package should follow how was packaged in oter distros. Debian and OpenSUSE install headers to /usr/include/serf-1/*.h, but I just packaged them to /usr/include/*.h Now I decide to install them to a new folder, should I keep updated with Debian or OpenSUSE, and install them to /usr/include/serf-1/, or to /usr/include/serf/? Thanks. Yours sincerely, Christopher Meng Always playing in Fedora Project http://cicku.me

kbuildsycoca in installation toolchain

by Mario Blättermann

Hi, currently I'm working on a Plasmoid package for KDE [1][2]. In the installation instructions [3], we have kbuildsycoca at the end. For the time being, I've added it to the installation toolchain in the spec file, too. But I was wondering if we need this at all. Maybe it has to be run in a %post and %postun macro? Any explanations would be welcome. Best Regards, Mario [1] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=973780 [2] http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php/Application%20Name%20Plasmoid?conten...

About iconsdir macro

by Christopher Meng

Hi, Can we revise the current ScriptletSnippets page to suggest packagers using this macro instead of "%{_datadir}/icons" ? For example, %post /bin/touch --no-create %{_datadir}/icons/hicolor &>/dev/null || : can be: %post /bin/touch --no-create %{_iconsdir}/hicolor &>/dev/null || : Shorter, right? Thanks.

RFE: Documentation packages - no base package dependency

by Michael Schwendt

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Documentation Proposed addition to the guidelines: Independent documentation -doc packages typically don't require the base package. It should be possible to install documentation without having to install a program and all its dependencies. Rationale: Recently, in package review requests, I've seen packagers apply https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Requiring_Base_Package also to -doc packages. And there are packages in the collection, which do that, too. This is a hindrance, especially if one only wants to peruse the documentation or install API documentation for remote developing. Of course, an exception to this is documentation in a special format, which can only be viewed within an application. Thoughts? -- mschwendt Fedora release 19 (Schrödinger’s Cat) - Linux 3.9.4-301.fc19.x86_64 loadavg: 0.16 0.12 0.13
