DNF used for F24 in Koji
by Miroslav Suchý 21 Mar '16

21 Mar '16

I just discovered - by coincidence - that Koji is already using DNF for F24 builds. So unless somebody object I will change mock default config for F24 to use DNF too. -- Miroslav Suchy, RHCA Red Hat, Senior Software Engineer, #brno, #devexp, #fedora-buildsys

Initial mock build targets for Mageia Cauldron and request for info on metalink setup
by Neal Gompa 14 Mar '16

14 Mar '16

Hello all, Over the last several months, I've been working in Mageia on enabling the use of DNF for managing software in the distribution[0]. One of the consequences of this is that we're now able to have packages built using Mock. Indeed, it was intended as part of the development to enable building with Mock, and in the past, I talked to Miroslav Suchý about also getting Mageia supported as a target in Copr. Of course, he mentioned a prerequisite for this is having Mock support. Today, I'm pleased to provide a patch to do just that. The attached patch adds the initial build target configs for Mageia Cauldron on 32-bit and 64-bit x86. I say initial because we do intend to have metalinks going very soon, and I would like to change the configuration files to use metalinks instead of a direct URL. However, I do not know how we need to set up metalinks for DNF to use them. In addition, we would also like to support the automatic redirection to a mirror when using http URLs (as download.fp.o does) for our legacy package manager, urpmi (which will remain the primary for Mageia 6 for various reasons). If there's anyone who could help us out on this, it would be greatly appreciated. In any case, the configs are available as the attached patch, pointing to a specific mirror (mirrors.kernel.org) for now.

docker-rpm-builder v1.25 released
by Alan Franzoni 08 Mar '16

08 Mar '16

Hello, since it's a bit of time since my last announcement, and the tool has grown to the point where I'd say it's quite mature, I thought I would post once again: https://github.com/alanfranz/docker-rpm-builder Basically it's a way to use rpmbuild inside docker containers, with some syntactic sugar to perform bind-mounting of the source from the host to the guest; I found it very handy and we're using it quite a lot at my daily job, superseded mock very quickly, and a lot of people got to use it full speed in very little time. Also works on OSX since release 1.25. Feel free to drop me a line or two if you test it. Bye, -- @alanfranz on Twitter contact me at public(a)[mysurname].eu
