Description Jeroen van Meeuwen 2010-05-12 05:49:40 UTC
Spec URL: http://git.ergo-project.org/?p=kolab-fedora.git;a=blob_plain;f=f12/custom-f12-buildsys/SPECS/pbuilder.spec
SRPM URL: http://koji.ergo-project.org/packages/pbuilder/0.196/1.fc12.buildsys/src/pbuilder-0.196-1.fc12.buildsys.src.rpm
Description: pbuilder constructs a chroot system, and builds a package inside the
chroot. It is an ideal system to use to check that a package has
correct build-dependencies. It uses apt extensively, and a local
mirror, or a fast connection to a Debian mirror is ideal, but not
necessary.

"pbuilder create" uses debootstrap to create a chroot image.

"pbuilder update" updates the image to the current state of testing/unstable/whatever

"pbuilder build" takes a *.dsc file and builds a binary in the chroot image

TODO items:
- please update the package to 0.199 so I can check the TBD points.

- fix the FIX items

- use the full allowed 80 characters for the lines in description, but not more

- %doc %{_datadir}/doc -> %{_docdir}

- Missing Requires: sudo

- usr/bin/pdebuild requires dpkg-parsechangelog, dpkg-architecture and dpkg-buildpackage, thus we need dpkg-devel instead of just dpkg

- usr/bin/debuild-pbuilder requires usr/bin/debuild from Debian's devscripts package

Comment 3 Sergio Basto 2013-05-24 01:24:30 UTC
hi, Christoph Wickert , new debhelper is build in rawhide , and soon we will build in F19 and next probably in F18 . 
this seems to be the last package on group of deb building tools ...  
we have new builds of alien, debhelper, po-debconf and dh-make since last comment have almost 3 years I don't what should I do ? do you review this package ?

Comment 4 Sergio Basto 2013-05-25 01:29:44 UTC
fix typo 
I don't know what todo ? do you review this package ? 
this packages is Assigned To: Christoph Wickert

Comment 5 Christoph Wickert 2013-05-25 17:44:53 UTC
As the submitter did not respond I think it's better to take his package, fix the issues I found during the review, and submit this new package in a new review request. Then close this bug as duplicate of the new one.

Note: Both Jeroen and I are busy, I canno promise I review anything. So if you have another reviewer, that's fine, go ahead.

Comment 6 Sergio Basto 2013-05-25 19:13:57 UTC
Ok, thanks for reply , I will wait for debhelper land in F19 , I estimate it takes a maximum of eight days. 
We already have debhelper-9.20120909-1.fc20 in rawhide, so we already can complete the review and build in rawhide. 
If after debhelper land in F19 , if no reply from Jeroen, I will consider unresponsive, ok ? 

Thanks,

Comment 7 Christoph Wickert 2013-05-25 23:12:44 UTC
Sure. During review you only need to care about rawhide, no need to have other releases delay anything.

Comment 8 Oron Peled 2013-05-26 00:38:07 UTC
Hmmm... I already prepared something, but wasn't aware that Sergio is trying
to become a maintainer. Anyway...

Here it is (updated to the version used in Debian/wheezy):
Spec URL: http://oron.fedorapeople.org/deb-package/pbuilder.spec
SRPM URL: http://oron.fedorapeople.org/deb-package/pbuilder-0.213-1.fc20.src.rpm

Two issues:
 * All internal scripts are in /usr/lib/pbuilder:
   - rpmlint does not like it (rightfully)
   - Changing it to /usr/share/pbuilder is very invasive (both in scripts and
     in man-pages)
   - Debian have been using it for years, so the chance of pushing this change
     upstream are pretty nil.
   - Ideas?

 * For this pbuilder to actually be usefull:
   - We need /usr/share/keyrings/debian-archive-keyring.gpg
     (from debian-archive-keyring)
   - This is really a debootstrap issue.

After manually copying the debian keyring, the new pbuilder is self-hosting
(i.e: I built a .deb of pbuilder using the proposed Fedora pbuilder)

Comment 9 Sergio Basto 2013-05-26 01:06:52 UTC
(In reply to Oron Peled from comment #8)
> but wasn't aware that Sergio is trying

I'm not trying became maintainer, I will became a maintainer or a reviewer if nobody do it, pbuilder is part of the group "debian tools" that we are packaging.
I know that pbuilder is the equivalent of mock in Fedora, but I'm not aware how to use it, so I prefer not be the maintainer and also pass as reviewer, but if everyone looks unresponsive, I'd like finish up the group of packages "debian tools" . 

Best regards

Comment 10 Oron Peled 2013-05-26 21:21:04 UTC
* Maintainership:
 - In reply to comment #9 -- OK, than I'll be the maintainer since I use
   these tools daily (on Debian systems).
   [btw: I have no problem maintaining/co-maintaining other parts of our
    Debian build stack if someone need help]

 - In reply to comment #5 -- As suggested I'll open a new RR and mark this
   as duplicate.

 - But first I want to apply all remarks from comment #2 (some of them still
   need to be fixed) -- I hope to do this and open the new ticket in a
   few days (oh, weekend, dear weekend...)

* We still need to think what to do with the debian keyring:
  - It doesn't strictly block pbuilder, but I think we want to improve
    the security and convenience of end users (developers), but providing
    a secure and easy path to install it in Fedora.

  - Which looks like a new RR -- debian-archive-keyring

  - Alternatives?

fine by me 

I offer me, to be the reviewer  
So I think you may open a new Review Request
