Comment 6 Ed Marshall 2017-08-08 00:58:28 UTC
Sorry for the long delay in replying to this.

I'm torn, because while the git-based update mechanism might be the right choice for upstream, I'm not convinced it's the right thing for Fedora, where we already have a distribution mechanism we can use for updating the parts library in a controlled and stable manner (by issuing an updated RPM).

Introducing a network dependency (and a dependency on Github) just for launching the program the first time seems unreasonable if we don't have to, especially when there's the possibility that the upstream git repository could contain assets that the version we're shipping in Fedora might not be able to render (for example, if we stay behind a version or two in Fedora to ensure output compatibility within a given release).

The ideal situation would be splitting fritzing up into two packages at this point: fritzing for the program itself (and which updates infrequently), and fritzing-parts (which fritzing would depend on), which would be updated more frequently from the upstream git repository, and actually patching out the parts update mechanism in the same way we currently patch out the software update mechanism. But, this has been stalled a bit since I haven't had a lot of time to work on it.

Suggestions and patches in that direction would definitely be welcome here.

Proposed fix

Hi, I've made it work and created a patch. I think I've disabled all update mechanism, and disabled the use of libgit2 library since it makes connections during the build time which fails the build.

Splitting fritzing-parts into its own package sounds like a good idea, especially since Fritzing binary it looks for it into /usr/share/fritzing-parts .
