I've recently been working on packaging Heimdal, Samba4 and OpenChange for Fedora.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=452212 (heimdal) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=453083 (Samba4) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=453395 (libmapi - OpenChange)
This will enable much better access to Microsoft Exchange servers from clients such as kdepim, and hopefully Evolution (pending a re-licensing).
I've got a feature page for this here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/OpenChange
Now, the reason I'm posting here is that I would rather not do this alone, and would love some co-maintainers of the packagers above, or at least some help with the review and sponsorship, or advise on the best way forward.
Any assistance gratefully received,
Andrew Bartlett

I've been really looking forward to this; how can I help? What's involved with co-maintainership? At the very least I can help with testing and such...
Thanks, Jesse

In terms of co-maintainership, perhaps best to ask this of others - I'm new at this game too.
The next task is to rebuild kdepim against libmapi. Once you see the kdepim spec file, it is a simple change, but it needs to be done on rawhide. Knowing if this whole thing actually works would be really valuable.
(I'll setup a rawhide KVM image in due course).

Ok, I'll pull down your specs and give them a try locally... I've gotta build a rawhide image too.

If you are new to Fedora, get a Fedora account at
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/
Then sign up for co-maintaining the package at
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb
You might also want to refer the following documents
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/HowToGetSponsored http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/Policy/EncourageComaintaine...
You can test the packages by using rawhide and providing feedback via bugzilla or bodhi, the updates system at
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates

I wish I could commit to doing it, but I don't think I have the time. And it looks like KDE upstream has abandoned libmapi support, which I definitely don't have time to deal with, but maybe someone else will step up?

The akonadi/kdepim folks were very keen on using libmapi when I discussed the topic @ akademy. When/where did you hear otherwise?
When I last checked out the code it was disabled in the build. And when I re-enabled it I got lots of compile errors, so I assumed it hadn't been touched in awhile. Hopefully things have changed since then...
I am new to this game. I am willing to help if you need extra help maybe with testing.... marcelo

I really appreciate the initiative here. I'd like to help with the heimdal package, maybe the others as well. I'll go through the ReviewGuidelines and post my findings in bugzilla but as neither of us is sponsored it won't be a formal review.

Just pulled down the packages (including the alpha5 samba4 package) and started building. I haven't got to the kde libraries yet (that build will probably take awhile) but on the packages above, I found the following:
heimdal: - openssl-devel depends on krb5-devel, but heimdal-devel conflicts with krb5-devel; should it provide it or do we need a virtual provides for krb5? - heimdal seemed to be missing a file directive for the dir.gz info file samba4: - everything seems fine here so far... libmapi: - didn't list the popt requirement, so initially I built without it and the packaging failed due to missing binaries (which required popt-devel) - libmapi-devel should depend on libmapi-0.7... rather than libmapi-libs-0.7...?
I've attached my spec file diffs in case you want to see (though now I see you've already fixed the libmapi-libs problem I saw)...
Thanks for packaging this stuff, I really hope the MAPI Akonadi code works; I'd *love* to ditch Outlook (it's the next best thing to escaping the Exchange ghetto).
Thanks, Jesse

Ok, started building kdepim today, but ran into quite a few problems: - profile*.cpp in openchange resource need to include KLocale - samba-4.0/events.h shouldn't use C++ keywords as variable names - lots of errors building openchange after fixing those things, along the lines of: ome/jbarnes/working/rpmbuild/BUILD/kdepim-4.0.84/x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu/akonadi/resources/openchange/akonadi_oc_resource_automoc.cpp In file included from /usr/include/QtCore/qdebug.h:53, from /usr/include/QtCore/QDebug:2, from /home/jbarnes/working/rpmbuild/BUILD/kdepim-4.0.84/akonadi/resources/openchange/ocresource.cpp:26: /usr/include/QtCore/qtextstream.h:105: error: expected unqualified-id before '(' token /usr/include/QtCore/qtextstream.h:106: error: expected unqualified-id before '(' token /usr/include/QtCore/qtextstream.h:107: error: expected unqualified-id before '(' token /usr/include/QtCore/qtextstream.h:124: error: expected unqualified-id before '(' token
which again looks like a possible missing header problem? Dunno yet...

Probably a question for the OpenChange team. I'm stretching myself packaging this stuff, but I just wanted to see some movement in this area.

heimdal:
- openssl-devel depends on krb5-devel, but heimdal-devel conflicts with krb5-devel; should it provide it or do we need a virtual provides for krb5?
I'm not sure what the best way to handle this interaction is. This build (due to the OpenSSL licence) avoids using OpenSSL as a build depencency on Heimdal.
I'm also not sure if the OpenSSL dependency on krb5 is useful anyway - but we might be stuck with it. (At one point it enabled an experimantal krb5-in-SSL hack, which only OpenSSL supported).
- heimdal seemed to be missing a file directive for the dir.gz info file
samba4:
- everything seems fine here so far...
libmapi:
- didn't list the popt requirement, so initially I built without it and the packaging failed due to missing binaries (which required popt-devel)
- libmapi-devel should depend on libmapi-0.7... rather than libmapi-libs-0.7...?
Thanks. I'll look into it.
