[libvirt] [PATCH] rpm spec cleanup and split off client only requirements

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



  This early patch changes the spec file to:
    - remove the old Obsoletes: livir and such, that was 3 years ago
    - make sure the inter packages require %{version}-%{release} and
      not just %{version}
    - compresses the ChangeLog which is getting close to a megabyte
    - split out a separate libvirt-client binary rpm including only
      what is needed to access the libvirt service from a client
      viewpioint. The main package requires the client anyway

So I moved in the client:
  - the shared library, I guess it's uncontroversial
  - the virsh/virt-xml-validate binaries, I guess it it doesn't block
    i386/x86_64 to be parallel installable that's fine
  - the man pages, obvious based on previous
  - the proxy when built, more controversial, it assumes that there
    is a service running locally so could be left on the main package
  - sasl and policykit data, more controversial, I guess it's better
    to associate them with the client
  - the schemas to allow checking on the client

Some of this is still open, including the name of the subpackage which I
initially expected to be libvirt-libs but in retrospect maybe -client
will be more in line with the content,

  Comments welcome :-)

Daniel
