Subject: unifying nightly tarball and source rpm tarball formats
Date: Thu, 23 Feb 2006 19:52:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <43FE1271.40304@redhat.com> (raw)
This is trivial, but it would be nice to be able to do drop-in
replacement of the tarball in the rpm with the nightly snapshot tarballs
to test things out.
Some analysis of the tarballs from
ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/systemtap/snapshots/ and what the
systemtap source RPM use. Ideally, would like to be consistent and
have the nightly snapshots be interchangeable with source files used
in the systemtap source RPM.
night source
tarball rpm
tarball naming scheme systemtap-%{date} systemtap-%{version}
-----------------------------------------------
compression .bz2 .gz
-----------------------------------------------
unpack dir src systemtap-%{version}
The compressions is not an issue that can be handled by rpmbuild. Just
like to have the unpack directory for the nightly tarball be of the
form systemtap-%{date}.
The systemtap.spec file lies. The systemtap source files are not
available at:
Source: ftp://sourceware.org/pub/%{name}/%{name}-%{version}.tar.gz
The sourceware.org directory has directories for the nightly snapshot
tarball, etc., but none of the actual released tarballs.
