  • Create work directories
exchange  - used to move files around with wget
work - used for CVS jobs
rpmbuild - used to build with Mock
rpms - used for CVS tree download

USING CVS - GETTING SOURCE CODES

CVS is used for maintaining code and packages. We first need to download (with CVS this is called retrieving) the code for the package to be modified from the SME Server CVS repository at SourceForge (we can also retrieve the CVS for the smecontribs tree).

Two cases with CVS:

  • To be able to work on your code in the SME Server CVS repository you need an account on SourceForge. If you do not have an account at CVS, retrieving is performed as an anonymous user and changes cannot be saved.

slogin -p 22 xyz\@192.168.xx.12 Note: If at a later stage you obtain a valid account with CVS, you will need to edit ALL packages /CVS/Root in order to save your work in CVS. As an example, for package "e-smith-backup", CVS/Root will need to be edited to be exactly as shown below: 

[xyz@buildxxxx testsf]$ cat e-smith-backup/CVS/Root 
:ext:smeserver.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/smeserver
[ok - CVS/Root uses 'ext' which should be SSH access]
  • To retrieve a package or a full tree as an anonymous user, cd into a work directory and issue following commands:
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@smeserver.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/smeserver checkout -P e-smith-backup
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@smeserver.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/smeserver co -P rpms
  • To retrieve a package or a full tree as a registered user, cd into a work directory and issue following commands:
cvs -z3 -d:ext:smeserver.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/smeserver co -P e-smith-backup
cvs -z3 -d:ext:smeserver.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/smeserver co -P rpms

PACKAGE MODIFICATION

  • Import cvs in your workspace

You can use /home/xyz/testsf or whatever suits. 

[xyz@buildxxxx ~]$ mkdir work
[xyz@buildxxxx ~]$ cd work/
[xyz@buildxxxx testsf]$ cvs -z3 -d:ext:smeserver.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/smeserver co -P e-smith-backup
  • To refresh run the following from the rpms directory, or any lower directory with a CVS dir
[xyz@buildxxxx ~] cd e-smith-backup/
[xyz@buildxxxx e-smith-backup]$ cvs update -dPA
  • Change to work directory
[xyz@buildxxxx e-smith-backup] cd sme9
  • To prepare a tree
[xyz@buildxxxx sme9]$  cvs update -dPA   
[xyz@buildxxxx sme9]$  make clean  [ignore errors about tar.xz:file missing]       
[xyz@buildxxxx sme9]$  make prep
  • Make a patch

Our patch will be done with the 'diff' tool which compares the edited files against the original files.

  • We need to to save a copy of the original files:
cp -R e-smith-backup-2.4.0 e-smith-backup-2.4.0.old

[xyz@buildxxxx sme9]$ ls -la
drwxrwxr-x 2 xyz xyz  4096 Apr  2 14:07 CVS

-rw-rw-r-- 1 xyz xyz    62 Feb 14 02:42 sources
  • Switch to the tree and make required modification:

Create a patch using a sensible name, eg "e-smith-backup-2.4.0-migrate_to_UNC_syntax.patch": 

[xyz@buildxxxx sme9]$ diff -urN e-smith-backup-2.4.0.old e-smith-backup-2.4.0 > e-smith-backup-2.4.0-migrate_to_UNC_syntax.patch
  • Update the spec file
[xyz@buildxxxx sme9]$ nano e-smith-backup.spec
  • increase the release version at the beginning of the spec file
%define release 4
  • add the patch to the existing patchlist section:
Patch3: e-smith-backup-2.4.0-migrate_to_UNC_syntax.patch
  • update the changelog section, including the release version and bug number
%changelog
* Mon Apr 1 2013 xyz burnat <devlist@burnat.com> 2.4.0-4.sme
- NFS syntax is deprecated for CIFS mount [SME: 7525]
  • add patch version to the %setup section
%patch3 -p1
  • Check changes against CVS
[xyz@buildxxxx sme9]$ cvs diff -u e-smith-backup.spec
  • Build the test RPM
[xyz@buildxxxx sme9]$ pwd
/home/xyz/work/e-smith-backup/sme9

[xyz@buildxxxx sme9]$ make mockbuild
  • Check built packages:
[xyz@buildxxxx sme9]$ ls -la e-smith-backup-2_4_0-4_el6_sme


  • Send new package and patch to workstation for testing/processing:
[xyz@buildxxxx sme9]$ scp -P 22 e-smith-backup-2.4.0-migrate_to_UNC_syntax.patch xyz\@192.168.xx.1:/home/xyz/WIP
[xyz@buildxxxx e-smith-qmail-2_4_0-3_el6_sme]$ scp -P 22 e-smith-qmail-2.4.0-3.el6.sme.noarch.rpm xyz\@192.168.xx.1:/home/xyz/WIP


  • Add the patch file to cvs:
[xyz@buildxxxx sme9]$ cvs add e-smith-backup-2.4.0-migrate_to_UNC_syntax.patch 
cvs add: scheduling file `e-smith-backup-2.4.0-migrate_to_UNC_syntax.patch' for addition
cvs add: use 'cvs commit' to add this file permanently

[ignore this suggestion!]

  • Finalise:
[xyz@buildxxxx sme9]$ make commit tag build

Note: this can also be done in stages: 

make commit  
make tag
make build
  • Check for Build:
http://buildsys.contribs.org/plague/
  • Check for emails received from buildsys@contribs.org

USE PREP TO CHECK PATCH

Often when using a SME8 patch on SME9 it fails due to a minor issue, eg linenumbers, then make prep tells you that quicker than make mockbuild and also it shows the problem in the shell rather than having to find the log file. However both work.

BUILDING A PACKAGE FROM CVS ON REQUEST

General instructions

The purpose is to build a package that you do not commit the patch in CVS 

cd <package>
cvs update -dPA
cd sme9
make tag build

Example, Charlie has asked for the build of a package in CVS already:

ADDING SUPPLIED PATCH TO PACKAGE OR PORTING FROM ONE VERSION TO ANOTHER

General instructions

One bug, two packages are affected, so two patches. Put same Bug number reference into the changelog of each package, and all is OK. As that is a SME 8 bug then I expect it does need to be cloned to SME 9 and also fixed there

apply the patches to the two packages, build locally, and test. If looking good then commit to CVS and push to main buildserver

Ian Wells: If only a patch is provided then the spec file needs to be updated, the patch added to CVS, [I find that it is good to do a 'make prep' and see if the patch is OK]then make the package locally, does it build and does it appear to work, then 'make commit tag build'.

You don't need to create a patch as the ones in the bug are correct unified patches, they just need to be save to some relevant name. Then modify the spec file: update the release number, add a PatchXX line, add a changelog entry, add a %patch line Nothing needs to be committed to CVS - all this happens locally to you at this point Then make mockbuild

Q:then I can build locally and test, correct? No need to make the changes in direstories ect, the patch provided by Dani will do the deed? Yes if your 'test RPM' from make mockbuild looks OK, then you do cvs add XYZ.patch and then make commit tag build Ian Wells: Just as usual

Bug 7541

Bug 7541 - spamassassin qpsmtpd's plugin size limit is hardcoded [sme8]

Patch for qpsmtpd supplied qpsmtpd allows the spamassassin plugin to read the size limit from its arguments

Patch for smeserver-qpsmtpd supplied smeserver-qpsmtpd reads MaxMessageSize prop of spamassassin and adds it to the arguments of the plugin if defined.

[cvs add XYZ.patch and then make commit tag build]

NOTE: Multiple patches: Ian Wells: yes you will need to 'cvs add XYZ.patch' for all the patches, you can actually do cvs add *.patch and it will work it out

PORTING FROM SME8 TO SME9 - CAUTION

15:51:38] … Hopefully the patch applies cleanly to SME9
[15:51:57] Ian Wells: I find that it is good to do a 'make prep' and see if the patch is OK
[15:52:04] Ian Wells: Then do a make mockbuild
[15:52:45] xyz burnat: ahhhh Too late, I started the local build, can I do make prep after to check?
[15:53:13] Ian Wells: If the local build works then no worry
[15:53:32] xyz burnat: OK, so either do a make prep or do a local build, yes?
[15:53:40] Ian Wells: Yes
[15:54:11] Ian Wells: Often when using a SME8 patch on SME9 it fails due to a minor issue, eg linenumbers
[15:54:46] Ian Wells: make prep tells you that quicker than make mockbuild and also it shows the problem in the shell rather than having to find the log file
[15:54:55] Ian Wells: However both work.

FIXING ERRORS IN SPEC FILES

Last one you will have to teach me is how to fix missing bug reference or spelling errors in spec file of packages already build 

[12:13:40 PM] Ian Wells: Those are in the spec files
[12:13:52 PM] Ian Wells: So...
[12:14:19 PM] Ian Wells: cvs update -dPA to get the latest for that package
[12:14:33 PM] Ian Wells: then edit the .spec file in your favourite editor
[12:15:08 PM] Ian Wells: then cvs commit -m  <-- your description, eg correct spelling
[12:15:23 PM] Ian Wells: You don't build anything, just commit to CVS
[12:15:33 PM] Ian Wells: The next build will then publish your change
[12:16:29 PM] Ian Wells: If very important you can force a build, but that needs the version updated and a changelog added to indicate why.
[12:16:52 PM] xyz burnat: Great, I understand. Many thanks, We are getting somewhere on all fronts.

REVERSE CHANGES MADE PREVIOUSLY

  • Edit specfile as usual, except you delete patch references as applicable.
  • leave patch in place.
  • Then:
cvs commit -m 'description of change'
  • Then:
make commit tag build

Note: avoid commenting lines, delete instead if confident...

PATCHING AN UPSTREAM PACKAGE

initscripts is an example of a package where we have to patch the upstream package.

Here it is a 3-step process, Analysis, Integration, buildsys update. The majority of the work is in steps 1 & 2 where there needs to be an analysis of what has changed, and then an integration stage where you need to check that the patches still work, update CVS with new and modified files etc. Finally the new source needs updating into the buildsys before the official build will work.

initscripts-8.45.44-3.el5.centos.src.rpm

Steps to update initscripts

Step 1: Analysis, by anyone

  • Check the contents of the SRPMs
$ rpm -qlp initscripts-8.45.44-3.el5.centos.src.rpm
0001-Fix-comments-in-sysctl.conf.ppc-862597.patch
0002-create-tmp-.X11-unix-in-rc.sysinit.patch
initscripts-8.45.44.tar.bz2
initscripts-centos-branding.patch
initscripts.spec

$ rpm -qlp initscripts-8.45.42-2.1.el5.sme.src.rpm
0002-create-tmp-.X11-unix-in-rc.sysinit.patch
initscripts-8.45.38-smepatches.patch
initscripts-8.45.42-kpartx.patch
initscripts-8.45.42.tar.bz2
initscripts-centos-branding.patch
initscripts.spec


  • Check what is different (do a directory compare)


  • Identical

initscripts-centos-branding.patch (content is identical, although files are not)

  • Modified

initscripts.spec 0002-create-tmp-.X11-unix-in-rc.sysinit.patch (patch is identical but line numbers changed)

  • New

initscripts-8.45.44.tar.bz2 (New source will need to be added to buildsys) 0001-Fix-comments-in-sysctl.conf.ppc-862597.patch (will be added to CVS)

  • Obsolete

initscripts-8.45.42-kpartx.patch (can be removed from CVS) initscripts-8.45.42.tar.bz2

  • Not in upstream SRPM as this is an SME Server patch to be applied each time

initscripts-8.45.38-smepatches.patch


So we need the new initscripts-8.45.44.tar.bz2 & 0001-Fix-comments-in-sysctl.conf.ppc-862597.patch, and the updated 0002-create-tmp-.X11-unix-in-rc.sysinit.patch

Step 2: Integration : local mock build, can be done by a developer

  • Remove the obsolete files
  • Update the spec file.
Version
Release
Patches
Check the description, don't copy the 'Centos' wording to the SME package
Copy the latest upstream Changelog
Add/modify the changelog regarding SME patches
  • Copy the new patch & source to the local directory
  • Check that the patches apply cleanly (You don't want to see lines like Hunk #1 succeeded at 890 (offset 1 line).)
make prep
  • Try to build it
make mockbuild
  • Once it builds cleanly on local mock, commit the changes to CVS. Note that you cannot submit the build yet as it will fail due to the new source.
make commit

Step 3: Buildsys access and permissions needed

Then add new sources to buildsys ON BUILDSYS

If the above step has already been done then can update to latest in CVS, and retrieve the source tarball.

  • get date for import
$ date +%s
1382918459
  • fix name/version/release and date in the import.log (I don't have a good explanation for this)
vi import.log*
  • import the new source/tarball
make new-sources FILES=*bz2
  • Finally commit changes to CVS and build it.
make commit tag build

USING MOCK

  • Known problems

Every once in a while mock doesn't setup the chroot correctly. This appears to be one of those cases. There are times when the repos that it is trying to pull packages from are being updated and can cause issues.

If the build.log doesn't look like it tried to build anything and root.log doesn't say that it can't find dependencies then you should be able to try the build again a few minutes/hours later and see if it works.

The way you build for i386 on a x86_64 box using our makefile is to do the following: 

BUILDARCH=i386 make mockbuild

This works for everything except for kernel modules on SME <= 8.0. I'll have to go through my notes for how to build kmods for i686 kernel using i386 config file. These happen rarely enough that I ususally just submit to the buildsys and then fix issues if there are any.

If the build succeeds, it drops your packages into the /var/lib/mock/$CONFIG/result directory. If it fails, you can check mock output, the *.log files above for more info, and/or rerun mock with the -v flag for more verbose messaging. If you get "warning: Could not canonicalize hostname: " it can be ignored. This is a DNS resolution error and the easy solution is to add your hostname to /etc/hosts
