Getting builds from COPR

Packages from this repository are available the DotNet SIG copr at https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/dotnet-sig/dotnet/

Please see the copr repository for steps on how to install the packages and use them.

Please report any issues here, via New Issue.

Specification

• Follows package naming and contents suggested by upstream
• Installs dotnet to /usr/lib64/dotnet

Building

1. You will need credentials and permissions to build in copr.

   • You need a valid Fedora account to be able to use any Fedora infrastructure, including copr.
   • You will need a token for copr-cli commands. See https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/api/ for how to get a token.
   • To build in dotnet-sig copr, ask an admin of dotnet-sig for permissions.

2. Fork the dotnet-2-0 repo via copr. You should now have a repo with the web url https://pagure.io/fork/$USER/dotnet-sig/dotnet-2-0

3. Checkout the forked repository

   • `git clone ssh://git@pagure.io/forks/$USER/dotnet-sig/dotnet-2-0.git
   • cd dotnet-2-0

4. Bump version/release in the spec file. Add a Changelog. Make sure the Source tag corresponds to the new tarball name, if there is a new tarball.

5. Do local builds

   • fedpkg local

   Fix any errors that come up and rebuild until it works locally.

6. Upload the new tarball to a public URL, if there is a new tarball. I use:

   • scp dotnet-2.0.3.tar.gz omajid.fedorapeople.org:public_html/dotnet/

   Make sure spectool -g /path/to/dotnet.spec can download this tarball from the public URL.

7. Commit the changes to the git repo and do a build on copr.

   • git add # any new files, such as new patches
   • git remove # old files, such as old patches
   • git commit -a
   • git push
   • fedpkg srpm
   • copr-cli build @dotnet-sig/dotnet <path-to-srpm>

8. If it fails, update spec file/patches and rebuild with the same set of steps.

Testing

1. Pull down the packages from copr, and install them:

   • dnf copr enable @dotnet-sig/dotnet
   • dnf install dotnet-sdk-2.1.2xx

   OR, if you already have the packages installed:

   • dnf upgrade 'dotnet*'

   Make sure it installs the version you just built. Sometimes it takes a few minutes to an hour for the latest version to show up in the copr repos.

2. Run some smoke tests

   • dotnet new console -o ConsoleApplication
   • dotnet run
   • dotnet publish -c Release -r linux-x64
