@Dennis Which Fedora version should be targeted while providing rpms with language implementation?
Pavel
Pavel
21:25
@AmokHuginnsson 29, but ideally you wouldn't target a specific Fedora or even a specific rpm-based distro
AmokHuginnsson
AmokHuginnsson
@Pavel 29 had EOL on 2019-11-26
@Pavel isn't it easier to ensure the language implementation installs properly if I target specific distro version while building RPMs?
Pavel
Pavel
@AmokHuginnsson yes but that's what TIO's running
@AmokHuginnsson No because it means it's harder to upgrade to a newer version
AmokHuginnsson
AmokHuginnsson
@Pavel harder for whom?
Pavel
Pavel
For Dennis
AmokHuginnsson
AmokHuginnsson
@Pavel thank you. I am still not sure what it means to not target specific version while building RPMs though :)

@AmokHuginnsson Also, for TIO, just don't provide an rpm. A tarball is better.

Everything that involves dnf actually makes updates harder, so don't worry about it.
AmokHuginnsson
AmokHuginnsson
@Pavel I already provide RPMs for TIO.
Pavel
Pavel
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
AmokHuginnsson
AmokHuginnsson
I just learned how out of date my builder was.
Pavel
Pavel
I'm not Dennis, I just know that TIO currently runs on Fedora 29
AmokHuginnsson
AmokHuginnsson
Hence the questions.
Pavel
Pavel
21:34
I also know that in the future it will eventually not run on 29
AmokHuginnsson
AmokHuginnsson
@Pavel by tarball you mean source version or prebuilt binaries?
Pavel
Pavel
Either one, binaries are probably better?
AmokHuginnsson
AmokHuginnsson
Well, that would require static linking, doable but flaky.
:-/
Thank you for important bit of information anyway :)
Pavel
Pavel
Oh, do you have some extra dependencies
AmokHuginnsson
AmokHuginnsson
@Pavel yes, my implementation links to a bunch of libraries.
Pavel
Pavel
21:38
Those can probably just be installed onto TIO depending on what they are specifically but source would likely be fine too
AmokHuginnsson
AmokHuginnsson
It seems to me that the easiest route is still to just build it for Fedora 29 ;)
Then it should just work™
