obsolete JavaScript packaging guidelines
by Greg Sheremeta 03 Dec '18

03 Dec '18

Hi, This page https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:JavaScript is terribly outdated. Even when it was created years ago, IMO the advice was questionable. Today, it's definitely bad advice. Modern web applications use webpack for JavaScript. With webpack, JavaScript is minified and bundled, and sometimes assets are even injected. I realize bundling libraries is bad for an old-school RPM-based application. But no one packages JavaScript into RPMs (try to find react and friends), and the page is leading to confusion on my team. To prevent confusion, acceptable options would be: either simply deleting the page, or placing a giant "don't follow this outdated advice" banner at the top. Best wishes, Greg -- GREG SHEREMETA SENIOR SOFTWARE ENGINEER - TEAM LEAD - RHV UX Red Hat NA <https://www.redhat.com/> gshereme(a)redhat.com IRC: gshereme <https://red.ht/sig>

hi i have a problem with building freeorion on armv7hl. the build stops because of exhausted memory ("virtual memory exhausted: Operation not permitted"). reducing %_smp_mflags to -j1 did not help (enough). maybe someone has any idea/solution. the broken build with default smp_mflags: https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/8543/30728543/build.log the broken build with smp_mflags set to -j1: https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/9032/30759032/build.log thanks joe
