Renamed jakarta-commons-* packages
by Mat Booth 02 Nov '10

02 Nov '10

Hi guys, During the great jakarta-commons to apache-commons package rename of 2010, [1] the following packages of yours have been obsoleted by versions with a new apache-prefixed name and a ticket has been raised with rel-eng has been raised to block them [2] from F14 and F15: fnasser: jakarta-commons-beanutils jakarta-commons-configuration jakarta-commons-el jakarta-commons-jxpath pcheung: jakarta-commons-daemon jakarta-commons-fileupload jakarta-commons-net In order to complete the process, it is necessary for the package owner to retire the package in pkgdb [3] so if I'd be most grateful if you'd be able to do that or release ownership of the package so that someone else may do it. Thanks for your help, Mat [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/JakartaCommonsRename [2] https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/4128 [3] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/ -- Mat Booth http://fedoraproject.org/get-fedora

eclipse-ptp build failure on rawhide
by Orion Poplawski 02 Oct '10

02 Oct '10

eclipse-ptp-4.0.3 builds fine on F14, but fails on rawhide. I haven't really had time to poke around but hoped someone might know of a current issue, as it appears to be completely unable to satisfy any dependencies. http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=196762 -- Orion Poplawski Technical Manager 303-415-9701 x222 NWRA/CoRA Division FAX: 303-415-9702 3380 Mitchell Lane orion(a)cora.nwra.com Boulder, CO 80301 http://www.cora.nwra.com

maven plugins

Any reason we don't have maven2 or something require things like: maven-compiler-plugin maven-install-plugin maven-jar-plugin maven-javadoc-plugin maven-release-plugin maven-resources-plugin maven-surefire-plugin since every maven project I've built seems to require them? -- Orion Poplawski Technical Manager 303-415-9701 x222 NWRA/CoRA Division FAX: 303-415-9702 3380 Mitchell Lane orion(a)cora.nwra.com Boulder, CO 80301 http://www.cora.nwra.com

Java SIG meeting minutes from September 21st
by Stanislav Ochotnicky 22 Sep '10

22 Sep '10

Meeting minutes from our second meeting. I reordered our wiki a bit to accomodate future meeting minutes and agendas (thanks to KDE SIG for template :-) ) I would like to know how many people wanted to attend but couldn't because of time. There are about 2x as many people written on our SIG page than attended our first two meetings, so if something is keeping you from coming: Speak up! We don't bite. Our next meeting wiki page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Meeting:Java_SIG_2010-10-05 Use it to add agenda you'd like to discuss (if you add something, attend the meeting though).

Help needed - errors while building rpm from srpm
by Edmon Begoli 21 Sep '10

21 Sep '10

Hi, I used commons-codec as well as previous version of the htmlunit to create a new .spec file. I did SRPM build on FC13. Here are the issues I encountered: 1. My package POM file requires maven-release-plugin. On F13 I could not find any maven plugin that has to do with maven and release (sudo yum search maven | grep release) 2. When I build the srpm (rpmbuild -bs --clean htmlunit.spec) I get srpm built but when I try to build rpm or to install rpm I get this: $ rpmbuild --ba --clean SPECS/htmlunit.spec Executing(%prep): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.OqRY17 + umask 022 + cd /home/edmon/rpmbuild/BUILD + cd /home/edmon/rpmbuild/BUILD + rm -rf htmlunit-2.7 + /usr/bin/gzip -dc /home/edmon/rpmbuild/SOURCES/htmlunit-2.7-1.tar.gz + /bin/tar -xf - + STATUS=0 + '[' 0 -ne 0 ']' + cd htmlunit-2.7 + /bin/chmod -Rf a+rX,u+w,g-w,o-w . + exit 0 Executing(%build): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.3IIwbQ + umask 022 + cd /home/edmon/rpmbuild/BUILD + cd htmlunit-2.7 ++ pwd + export MAVEN_REPO_LOCAL=/home/edmon/rpmbuild/BUILD/htmlunit-2.7/.m2/repository + MAVEN_REPO_LOCAL=/home/edmon/rpmbuild/BUILD/htmlunit-2.7/.m2/repository + mkdir -p /home/edmon/rpmbuild/BUILD/htmlunit-2.7/.m2/repository + mvn-jpp -Dmaven.repo.local=/home/edmon/rpmbuild/BUILD/htmlunit-2.7/.m2/repository install javadoc:javadoc /usr/lib/jvm/java /usr/share/maven2/bin/mvn: line 157: /usr/lib/jvm/java/bin/java: Success error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.3IIwbQ (%build) RPM build errors: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.3IIwbQ (%build) My most recent srpm and spec files are on: http://ebegoli.fedorapeople.org/htmlunit-2.7-1.src.rpm http://ebegoli.fedorapeople.org/htmlunit.spec If you could, would you please take a look at what I may be doing wrong (or if the absence of maven-release-plugin may be an issue). Thank you in advance, Edmon

ClassNotFoundException in maven-javadoc-plugin
by Mat Booth 18 Sep '10

18 Sep '10

Hi all, One of my Fedora 14 FTBFS bugs is caused by this error that occurs whilst maven is building the javadocs: [INFO] Internal error in the plugin manager executing goal 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-javadoc-plugin:2.7:javadoc': Unable to load the mojo 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-javadoc-plugin:2.7:javadoc' in the plugin 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-javadoc-plugin'. A required class is missing: org/apache/maven/shared/invoker/MavenInvocationException org.apache.maven.shared.invoker.MavenInvocationException Is maven-javadoc-plugin missing a dependency? Regards, Mat -- Mat Booth http://fedoraproject.org/get-fedora

Looking for small .spec example for srpm that uses maven2
by Edmon Begoli 14 Sep '10

14 Sep '10

I am learning to develop Java source packages for F13/14 that are using Maven 2. Is there an example of a .spec file that anyone could recommend as well as the tutorial how to develop a spec file for SRPM for small Java package that uses Maven 2? On %build step I am getting non-descriptive errors that may simple be result of some beginners error with Java+rpmbuild but I would like to get some good learning example and a tutorial so that I can continue make progress and contribute packages. Otherwise, I may remain stuck. Thanks.

Oct 8th - Etherpad FAD at Olin College! (Outside Boston, MA)
by Colin Zwiebel 13 Sep '10

13 Sep '10

[image: ep_fad_poster_x500.png] Oct 8th starting 5pm - Oct 9th We're holding a Hackathon / Fedora Activity Day at Olin College in Needham, MA! Etherpad is open source software for teams to type together on the same document. Join a team of students, alumni, and Fedora Linux hackers as we improve Etherpad for ourselves and the world! Cut to the chase: *http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Etherpad_FAD* == What is EtherPad? == Etherpad is pretty much the pinnacle of online, collaborative text editing. If you're not familiar with EtherPad, take a look at this video<http://www.viddler.com/explore/aaroniba/videos/1/> . == Backstory == EtherPad was acquired by Google in 2008 and the code was open-sourced (yay!). Buuut the EtherPad code-base isn't exactly in a packageable state, as demonstrated by SDZ, here <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Etherpad>. (SDZ is an Olin student!) Thus we plan to: * Repackage EtherPad in a consistent, portable way, more best-practice form * Create compliant, Fedora packages for EtherPad * Setup EtherPad instance on Fedora Infrastructure (infrastructure managers, sorry, quietly stop choking and shoot me an email so I can explain Fud + EtherPad = awesome and discuss how to go about that) * Teach non-Propeller-heads about OSS development and the technologies used == When? == ** *Friday, October 8th - Saturday, October 9th* ** (and maybe early Sunday if we get some of the no-sleep crowd). Dinner on Friday. Dinner and lunch Saturday. Can attend in person? Remotely join us! See the wiki<https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Etherpad_FAD#I.27m_far_away_.2F_can.27t_phys…> . == Us ? == Andy, Sebastian and I are Olin College students and long-time linux users, and total EtherPad fanboy. We would love to give back to all three of these communities and help people get involved in open source software. Finally, there is generally just a lot of cool technical stuff inside EtherPad? Server-side-JS? Scala? Comet? Collaborative diffing? Web-service architecture? Your totally welcome to come and geek out on these topics, and maybe learn a thing or two about how EtherPad works. Check us out on the wiki and twitter: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Etherpad_FAD http://twitter.com/olinetherpadfad Cheers, Colin, Sebastian, Andy P.S. You've probably never heard of Olin College, but you should totally look at the crazy higher-ed experiment we're running: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olin_college
