tgm4883Trying to move some PPA builds into a recipe. Is there a way to write text into a file inside a build recipe? I'm trying to do this https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/zFbgzRT8cB/ but it doesn't look like LP supports running commands16:55
cjwatsonYou'd have to do that in debian/rules in a branch that's pulled in as part of the recipe.16:59
tgm4883hmm17:00
tgm4883I'm pretty sure that's where it currently is and it's failing, let me verify17:00
tgm4883cjwatson: yea that's how we did it before moving to recipes, inside of a sh file inside debian/rules17:03
tgm4883so that should work then and I should be looking at a different reason it's failing?17:04
cjwatsonIn principle yes17:14
tgm4883ok I'll keep digging then, thanks17:15
cjwatsonnp17:27
tgm4883cjwatson: talking with upstream on this and trying to figure out what is happening behind the scenes in each step. Trying to find out if it's using "git archive" to build the archive or something else17:56
tgm4883looking at the logs suggests that the version stuff we have is running, but it doesn't think it's a git repo17:56
cjwatsonAh yeah, dpkg-buildpackage from the recipe probably excludes .git17:59
tgm4883ah ok18:00
cjwatsonNot sure there's much we/you can do about that I'm afraid18:00
cjwatsonI don't recall the policy reasons why "run" is forbidden in Launchpad; might be worth revisiting that since recipe builds are well-sandboxed nowadays18:03
cjwatson(This was all before my time)18:03
