Description Jack Tanner 2008-02-07 21:54:40 UTC
Package changelogs viewable through koji may contain notes to bugs. These should
be hyperlinked.

For example, http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=32507 contains
references like rhbz#317041. These should link to Redhat's Bugzilla.

Comment 1 Mike McLean 2008-02-08 00:04:33 UTC
interesting idea, but very specific to fedoraproject.org. This is something to
consider when we add plugin capabilities to koji.

You you look at: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/MyFedora
This may be a better place to handle this sort of integration.

Comment 2 Jesse Keating 2008-02-08 15:06:05 UTC
Also, the content listed is just a raw dump of the %changelog content in the rpm
spec file itself.  No processing is done on it to try and recognize linkable
material, and that would likely slow things down a bit when loading that content
(some rpms have /huge/ amounts of changelog).  I would pretty well NAK this
feature request.

Comment 3 Jack Tanner 2008-02-08 17:10:25 UTC
Too bad. Sure this is specific for fedoraproject.org, but that's Koji's single
most important user. To make it more portable, I suppose you could set a field
that says "linkify bugzilla entries w.r.t. this base URL", and "process
changelogs for bugzilla entries w/ this regexp".

What's the largest changelog of all the RPMs now in Fedora? Just for kicks... I
don't have a huge changelog handy, but on an input text file of 3.2MBs:

$ time grep '[0-9][0-9]*' eng.train | wc -l
19159

real    0m0.624s
user    0m0.618s
sys     0m0.008s

This is a one-time cost, right? And there must be some sort of escaping done on
the changelogs already.

Comment 4 Mike McLean 2008-02-08 20:23:52 UTC
Unlike Jesse I'm not rejecting this entirely, but I do stand by my previous
comments.
