Description Adam Williamson 2012-07-31 00:12:05 UTC
As reported upstream at http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/5553 , Shotwell fails to build against gphoto 2.5.0 which is present in Rawhide. This is a potential F18 Alpha blocker as Shotwell is on the DVD and live images but is currently dep-broken, which is why I'm filing a downstream report. We would either have to get a fix for this, revert gphoto2 or drop Shotwell from the live image and DVD to get a working F18 compose.

Comment 1 Thomas Moschny 2012-07-31 10:05:35 UTC
Would it be possible to get get a libgphoto2-compat package into F18?

Comment 2 Adam Williamson 2012-08-03 23:50:02 UTC
Discussed at the blocker bug review meeting of 2012-08-03: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-bugzappers/2012-08-03/f18-alpha-blocker-review-1.2012-08-03-17.01.log.html .

Accepted as a blocker as it violates criterion "There must be no file conflicts (cases where the files in some packages conflict but the packages have explicit Conflicts: tags are acceptable) or unresolved package dependencies during a media-based (DVD) install" (unresolved deps), and would also break live image compose entirely.

Our options here, in descending order of desirability but probably ascending order of ease, are:

1) Patch the code to build against 2.5.0
2) Ship a gphoto2-compat package
3) Drop gvfs-gphoto2 from spins and the DVD until 1) or 2) is done

Comment 3 Jindrich Novy 2012-08-06 11:38:39 UTC
I added a patch that fixes gvfs's build againtst libgphoto2 and allows to build it also against the old one. The problem is that the build fails because of a different reason, i.e. it tries to download some documentation over web during build:

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=4360341&name=build.log

So I think 1) is the way to go. I'm currently on it as gvfs's maintainer seems to be on PTO.

Shotwell is a different case. There is needed to change Vala calls to conform to the latest libgphoto2 API. Thomas Moschny is looking into it.

Comment 4 Adam Williamson 2012-08-07 03:29:23 UTC
There's a separate bug for shotwell, so no need to discuss it here. Thanks for the patch!

Comment 5 Jindrich Novy 2012-08-07 04:56:21 UTC
Fixed in rawhide, gvfs is now built against libgphoto2 2.5.0.

Comment 6 Adam Williamson 2012-08-10 17:55:44 UTC
jnovy: ah. Um, turns out you rather screwed things up: this was the bug for *shotwell*. 844504 was for gvfs. But you changed this to be against gvfs and closed it...(I did accidentally put the wrong package name in comment #2, sorry).

So, re-opening this as it's for *shotwell*. Re-pasting comment #2 correctly for clarification. I will close 844504, as gvfs has been fixed.

Comment 7 Adam Williamson 2012-08-10 17:56:06 UTC

1) Patch the code to build against 2.5.0

Comment 9 Adam Williamson 2012-08-16 19:17:09 UTC
Discussed at 2012-08-16 blocker review meeting: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-bugzappers/2012-08-16/f18-alpha-blocker-review-3.2012-08-16-16.00.html . We agreed there's little we can do here, just follow the upstream work, and block shotwell from composes if it's not fixed in time.
