Self Introduction: Ilyas B Arinov
by Ilyas Arinov 18 Sep '19

18 Sep '19

My name is Ilyas, I am 33 years old. RHCSA I am interested in Python development and stable distribution. I was involved in Russian translation group several years ago and worked in Zanata. I am on RHEL8 now and there is no my favorite IRC client in default repositories - weechat. So when I install EPEL I found is was not there too. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1753203 was created to ask build new package for EL8. I had some time to build weechat 2.6 on my RHEL 8. And as I need it in several other laptops and desktops I have, I decided to make temporary RPM package before maintainers do. I was join #epel to ask about details and procedures. According several Fedora Project Packaging links I've got the spec file from EL7 and adapt it from 2.2-2 to 2.6 weechat version. Make some other changes and create my own temporary package. I tested it in my localhost installation. Works fine for me. So I came here to share my spec file which may be interesting for weechat maintainers to review. I hope this letter will decrease the waiting time I can access EL8 package. Thanks.

Packaging Go application from tarball
by Ryan O'Hara 17 Sep '19

17 Sep '19

I'd like to package a Go application [1] that provides a tarball for each stable release. That's great, but it seems that I have two options: 1. Use the tarball as a source in the spec file, the proceed as usual. The Makefile included with this tarball will handle all the Go dependencies. 2. Treat this as a Go application, avoid the tarball and have the spec file define all the BuildRequires. Thoughts? I've been packaging for ages but this will be my first Golang package. One way seems easier but might not be the best way. Cheers. Ryan [1] https://github.com/haproxytech/dataplaneapi
