This is an overview for how to port things for RSE.
Prerequisites:
In your homedir on your IRIX host you should see :
~/rpmbuild
~/sgug-rse.git #cloned from sgidev/sgug-rse
Making a new port
Now try to build it!
If it builds, sudo install it:
Adding a working spec to wip
On my IRIX host, in my git checkout "~/sgug-rse.git"
If you're pushing a bunch of changes that you're not very sure about, you should consider creating your own fork of sgug-rse, creating branches there, then sending us Pull Requests for review.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Failure Scenario 1: something's wrong in the spec
First, copy the official FC31 spec file to "<packagename>.spec.origfedora" . Include this with your fixed spec.
Typically this happens when you're missing a dep. If you know you have a dep and it's named differently, comment the BuildDep line out; don't delete it.
There could also be a Linuxism, or some other problem.
Generally, please don't delete lines. Comment them out.
Failure Scenario 2: the source needs to be patched.
* cd ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES
* extract foo-bar.1.0.0.tar.gz
* cp -Ra foo-bar.1.0.0 foo-bar.1.0.0.orig
* cd foo-bar.1.0.0/
* Play some code golf!
* cd ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES
* diff -Naur foo-bar.1.0.0.orig foo-bar.1.0.0 > foo-bar.irixfixes.patch
In the spec file, we start our patch numbers at 100:
You can look at other specs to see how to patch.
I prefer the lazy way
Write out the spec file, then try to rpmbuild per above. If it works, great!
scp the patch and the spec, then git add, commit and push per above.
Prerequisites:
- Read the README here: https://github.com/sgidevnet/sgug-rse
- Follow that README
- Install the WIP Starter Pack for Devs here https://github.com/sgidevnet/sgug-rse/releases
In your homedir on your IRIX host you should see :
~/rpmbuild
~/sgug-rse.git #cloned from sgidev/sgug-rse
Making a new port
- Pick something to port
- Check for an updated version here: https://download-ib01.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/updates/31/Everything/SRPMS/Packages/
- Else look here http://fedora.mirrors.pair.com/linux/releases/31/Everything/source/tree/Packages/
Code:
cd ~/rpmbuild
rpm -Uvh http://fedora.mirrors.pair.com/linux/releases/31/Everything/source/tree/Packages/a/auto-destdir-1.11-16.fc31.src.rpm
Code:
rpmbuild -ba --undefine=_disable_source_fetch -ba SPECS/auto-destdir.spec
Code:
sudo rpm -Uvh /usr/people/edodd/rpmbuild/RPMS/mips/auto-destdir*.rpmOn my IRIX host, in my git checkout "~/sgug-rse.git"
Code:
git checkout wip
cp ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/auto-destdir.spec ~/sgug-rse/packages/auto-destdir/SPECS/.
git add SPECS/auto-destdir.spec
git commit -m "added auto-destdir"
git push origin wip-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
