Introducing Centpkg (Comments requested)
by Brian Stinson 02 Jul '14

02 Jul '14

Greetings everyone, I spent a little bit of time to see if pyrpkg (https://fedorahosted.org/rpkg/) could help with the "building RPMS from a git repo" workflow. Pyrpkg includes methods that can interact with git (cloning, downloading sources etc), koji, and the local mock/rpmbuild build processes among other things. You may know pyrpkg better as the backend for fedpkg in Fedora. I have a very bare-bones configuration at https://bitbucket.org/bstinsonmhk/centpkg that I thought I would share. Is the community interested in such a tool? If so I'm happy to keep working on it, perhaps with the help of others who are interested? Cheers!

C7 - yum groupinstall broken?
by Neil Thompson 02 Jul '14

Hi all, Using build x86_64-20140630 (and previous [Grrr, I've just noticed x86_64-20140702, I'll try that once I've got it down]), I can do a "yum -v grouplist" and get what looks like the correct output, but when I try installing one of the groups, the following happens - %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% [root@maintsas ~]# yum groupinstall scientific Loaded plugins: fastestmirror There is no installed groups file. Maybe run: yum groups mark convert (see man yum) base | 3.6 kB 00:00:00 epel | 3.7 kB 00:00:00 Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile Warning: Group scientific does not have any packages to install. Maybe run: yum groups mark install (see man yum) No packages in any requested group available to install or update %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% I'm fairly sure this shouldn't be happening :) -- Cheers!

el7_0 as dist tag (release mismatch in koji)
by Bojtos Péter 02 Jul '14

02 Jul '14

Dear All, I'm trying to recompile RHEL packages to i686. Some RHEL source packages has the dist tag el7_0 in it. How do you handle it, when recompiling? Do you keep it by redefining the dist macro? The spec file contains %{dist}, which comes from the /etc/rpm/macros.dist. It contains el7 on RHEL installations. How should I avoid release mismatch in koji? Thank you, Peter Bojtos
