Subject: [sbopkg-users] yasm
Message-ID: <4DC02FF4.9070606@gmail.com>

Hi,

I just loaded up the ffmpeg queue file from 
http://gitorious.org/sbopkg-slackware-queues/sbopkg-slackware-queues/trees/master 
and got a notice from sbopkg that yasm couldn't be found in the 13.37 
SBo repository. Looking through the commit logs for SlackBuilds.org, I 
see this one:

http://slackbuilds.org/gitweb/?p=slackbuilds.git;a=commit;h=3bceaa3e8d2c05995454996d693beb9b29715710

Since yasm is now part of Slackware, I presume the queue files need to 
be updated? grepping for yasm in all the queue files, I get this list of 
affected queue files:

pwc at slack:/var/lib/sbopkg/queues> grep yasm * | cut -f1 -d:
HandBrake.sqf
chromium.sqf
libvpx.sqf
mac.sqf
x264.sqf
yasm.sqf
yasm.sqf

Obviously yasm.sqf will also be redundant.

Hello Pierre,
Thank you, I took care of that in my local copy.
I'm currently in the process of updating the repository to support Slackware
13.37 (there have been quite a lot of changes since 13.1), you'll be able to
enjoy a better experience in a few days.

Hello,

Thank you for answer. Indeed the following worked:

TAG=my_tag sbopkg

I will now investigate the local.repo solution.

The best thing to do would be to create an additional repo file for your
repository (see README-repos) or just replace 'SBo' with your tag in the
local.repo file. You could even just run

TAG=your_tag sbopkg

if it would work well enough for you.

If none of those work for you, let me know.

Hello,

I changed the TAG part in file 40-sbo.repo (instead of 50-local.repo because I'm using the SlackBuild.org 13.37 repository) and it also worked.

Also adding this line to sbopkg.conf worked:

export TAG=${TAG:-cngu}

For now, I stay with the change in repo file (I guess I'll have to do the change after each upgrade of the sbopkg package).

Thanks for the help.

Well, if exporting the TAG from the config file works for you, you might
not need the repo file change (I couldn't remember if just changing the
tag covered everything like searching for updates and so on, but I
believe it does). If you really did, you could create a 00-cngu file or
something that SBo wouldn't mess with, though that would take a few more
steps.

Subject: [sbopkg-users] sbopkg hardcoded nice
Message-ID: <4DD516FE.9030705@shade-fx.com>

Hi,

I was asking on irc channel that why sbopkg run every build process 
niced and someone pointed me to raise discussion on mailing list about 
this issue.

So is the reason to run everything niced to maintain better 
responsiveness during build process? I found this thing a bit annoying 
because if nice is hard coded like it is, it is pretty much impossible 
to make builds be done just nice level 0.
Sometimes person might want to run build process at normal priority 
level and it is now impossible.

I think that would be better to keep sbopkg priority untouched and allow 
the user set the nice if he feels so. Current behaviour can be reached 
just by running whole sbopkg niced. The best solution could be to make 
nice value configurable in sbopkg.conf

Regards,

Joni

Yes.

Well, this isn't exactly the same thing (I don't want my pc slowed down by a
background build, but I also don't want to have a laggy dialog interface
when I have builds running in the background).

This is easy to do. Would you be so kind to open an enhancement ticket at
http://code.google.com/p/sbopkg/issues/list so that it doesn't get
forgotten?

Message-ID: <1306540054.9187.1456876649@webmail.messagingengine.com>

I would like to request/suggest a "blacklist file" for SBopkg, similar to the one slackpkg uses (/etc/slackpkg/blacklist). The slackpkg blacklist file describes itself, saying:

# This is a blacklist file. Any packages listed here won't be
# upgraded, removed, or installed by slackpkg.

My reason for this request/suggest is that I use a newer version of the flash-player-plugin than in the repository:

flash-player-plugin:
  INSTALLED PACKAGE IS NEWER THAN REPO
  Installed version:  flash-player-plugin-10.3_d162-x86_64-2_SBo
  Repo version:  flash-player-plugin-10.2_r153-x86_64-3_SBo
  Note: repo version not obtainable by standard method, may be inaccurate.

IOW, you don't want to see that message?  The blacklist file would
simply mask or hide it from the update list?

What should happen if the repo version is updated and leapfrogs the
version you have installed?  Should sbopkg then unignore your
blacklisted package or continue to blacklist it?

What if you kept your own local repo using the 'local' repo feature with
a different tag?  Wouldn't that exclude the package from the update
list?

If the package name is in the blacklist, slackpkg ignores it. It's very simple. It would be nice to see something like that available in SBopkg.

I apologize in advance if this reply is mauled.

Please do not change the subject line.  It breaks the thread.

Yes, I know what the blacklist file does in slackpkg and I get what you
want it to do in sbopkg.  My questions were to get you thinking about
potential gotchas and to point you to a potential solution that already
exists in sbopkg.  If you create a local repo with a custom tag for your
customized packages, like flash, then it shouldn't appear in the update
list when you browse the SBo repo.  Have you investigated this as an
option?

Digest mode was on, I wasn't sure how to reply normally to your message.

I do understand the ability exists to make another repository, but that's just a workaround. I'd rather temporarily do that than permanently do it.

I understand that but, to just not give you a break, please don't
top-post, either. ;) Among other things, it makes it impossible for me
to trim, yet include the previous person's text.

It's not a "workaround". If you are permanently maintaining a package
outside of SBo, then it's not an SBo package but is your own special
local one. Local has more than one use, but that's one of them.
Basically, if you want to tweak a package and see it, customize its
options and/or edit its SlackBuild and .info file. If you want to tweak
a package (or radically mangle one or add new ones or whatever) and not
see it in an SBo context, create it as a local package.

Also, when you say you want a thing excluded, what all do you have in
mind? When you browse into SBo's 'multimedia', you don't want to see
that flash exists? Or you just don't want to see it in the update list?
Or what?

What do you mean by "top post?"
