I am trying to build a chain of packages in a build override?
I.e. a series of packages: A->B->C
I set up a build override for A, and B built successfully. Now, I
would have expect building C to pickup B from the A-override.
You seem to be confused about what an override is ;-)
Quite likely, I rarely used them and have always found the tooling to be
hard to use ;)
It's not a separate environment just for you - if it was then you would
have to say which override you wanted to use when building.
Correct. That's a issue I never understood about build overrides.
Rather it just adds that package to the global build environment that
everybody sees.
But in order for B to appear in the build environment for C to use you
would need to add an override for B and then wait for it to appear
there.
That's what I had presumed. But this implies me to deliberately break deps.
I believe chainbuild knows how to do the waiting but not how to
request an override.
So in summary chainbuild is I believe only useful in rawhide, and in
branched before bodhi is enabled.
That's clear. I was using the term chain-building in the meaning of
building a hierarchy of packages.
So let me rephrase my question:
How to build a sub tree of packages in fc27, when the root of this tree
changed SONAME?
