What we have here doesn't really qualify as bugs. Our stuff falls into two major components; (i) implementing the following macros:
%pythonprefix /usr %__python %{pythonprefix}/bin/python %pythonversion %(python -c 'import sys;print(sys.version[0:3])') %pythonpath %{pythonprefix}/lib/python%{pythonversion} %pythoninclude %{pythonprefix}/include/python%{pythonversion}
and (ii) upgrading up2date to connect to our Zope xml-rpc server.
For (i) we've a plethora of spec file changes to override much source code expectation of /usr/include/python2.2 etc. Please advise as to if and how you'd like us to help integrate this.
We also made the following changes to up2date-4.3.19:
~ * range of indescriminate bug fixes ~ * remove OpenSSL module dependency in preference of native socket ssl ~ * remove rpclib and the user proxy cruft. xmlrpc supports basic http authentication and it's quite unncecssary to implement custom transports.
I'm having a look at the 4.3.40 update now, and am already dismayed to discover that the listPackages() rpc call has been changed from a POST to a GET - which is causing a range of issues as I'm unconvinced as to the xml-rpc compliance of this change.
These are quite significant changes, both technically and strategically, and I do think that CVS access and collaboration with your development staff would represent the best way forward in integrating these features and ensuring up2date remains a generic client.
There are also a range of other python-related issues that need to be addressed within FC. For example: why is there a python2.2 interpreter embedded within the OpenOffice suite??
Please advise how we can participate.
