This follows https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/issues/2511
and moves the license string to only one place. No need to repeat it
in subpackages.
I did not include a changelog entry as there are five other PR waiting in a
queue, and that would conflict with them.
Tools have been moved into the tools/ directory in the tarball so update
the ./rpmdb path accordingly.
Also remove the README.md file that is installed from the docs/
directory and ends up alongside the project's README file for no good
reason. This is tracked upstream as:
https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/issues/2811
Also remove the already noop %check support altogether as the new
test-suite backend currently doesn't support running inside a mock
buildroot (this may change in the future, in which case we'll add it
back).
Currently systemd has it's own conflicting user/group provide generation
but we need the rpm one for the sysuser integration. This must not
proceed before https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/systemd/pull-request/109
is merged + built because this involves a file-level conflict.
Note that this does NOT enable the sysuser integration in rpm, merely
the provides generation, but doing so will allow people to begin testing
the actual integration.
Disable debuginfod lookups in rpmbuild scripts, there's no circumstance
where rpmbuild should look up symbols from the internet.
Exclude kernel modules from ELF dependency generation, kernel modules
do not have DT_NEEDED style dependencies.
The setup.py build was only really added for dealing with parallel
installable Python 2 and 3 builds, and has been quite a PITA otherwise
because it's not what the upstream builds and tests use. Now that
the 2to3 transition is thankfully over, we can go back to building the
extension by ourselves. Only, in the meanwhile people have come to
depend on the egg-info data so create that from automake, that format is
not exactly rocket science.
This fixes us accidentally shipping two slightly different Python
modules for years (#2135719) and building with Python >= 3.12 where
distutils has been dropped, and does so in upstream compatible manner
(where a similar approach was taken when transitioning to cmake based
build system)
Much of the world outside Fedora itself appears to be signed using
obs-signd which defaults to OpenPGP v3 signatures, which the Sequoia
backend does not currently support. Revert for now to consider the
options.
