Eclipse Mylyn >= 3.8.0 Packaging Guide (F17)
Mylyn has adopted Tycho for builds, which is kind of monolithic. Mylyn inter-dependencies has forced us to have only one package (eclipse-mylyn) with subpackages. However, sources are retrieved from three places:
- Mylyn main repo
- Mylyn incubator repo
- Auth compatibility layer.
All main packages except eclipse-mylyn have been retired.
Eclipse Mylyn >= 3.5.0 Packaging Guide
As of release 3.5.0, Eclipse Mylyn is a new top-level project at eclipse.org. In addition, Mylyn decided to split their only project prior to 3.5.0 into several sub-projects. Those Mylyn sub-projects are as follows:
- org.eclipse.mylyn
- org.eclipse.mylyn.commons
- org.eclipse.mylyn.contexts
- org.eclipse.mylyn.tasks
- org.eclipse.mylyn.versions
- org.eclipse.mylyn.builds
- org.eclipse.mylyn.docs
- org.eclipse.mylyn.reviews
For Fedora we aimed for one SRPM per sub-project. Due to dependencies, this is not entirely true, but matches for the most part. The Fedora SRPMs for upstream Eclipse Mylyn >= 3.5.0 are as follows:
| Fedora SRPM | Corresponding upstream sub-project (mostly) |
|---|---|
| eclipse-mylyn-commons | org.eclipse.mylyn.commons |
| eclipse-mylyn | n/a |
| eclipse-mylyn-ide | n/a |
| eclipse-mylyn-context | org.eclipse.mylyn.contexts |
| eclipse-mylyn-tasks | org.eclipse.mylyn.tasks |
| eclipse-mylyn-docs | org.eclipse.mylyn.docs |
| eclipse-mylyn-versions | org.eclipse.mylyn.versions |
| eclipse-mylyn-builds | org.eclipse.mylyn.builds |
| Not in Fedora (yet) | org.eclipse.mylyn.reviews |
These SRPMs produce the following binary RPMs:
| SRPM | Binary RPMs |
|---|---|
| eclipse-mylyn-commons | eclipse-mylyn-commons |
| eclipse-mylyn | eclipse-mylyn |
| eclipse-mylyn-ide | eclipse-mylyn-ide |
| eclipse-mylyn-context | eclipse-mylyn-context, eclipse-mylyn-context-team, eclipse-mylyn-context-pde, eclipse-mylyn-context-java, eclipse-mylyn-context-cdt |
| eclipse-mylyn-tasks | eclipse-mylyn-tasks-trac, eclipse-mylyn-tasks-bugzilla |
| eclipse-mylyn-docs | eclipse-mylyn-docs-wikitext, eclipse-mylyn-docs-htmltext |
| eclipse-mylyn-versions | eclipse-mylyn-versions, eclipse-mylyn-versions-git, eclipse-mylyn-versions-cvs |
| eclipse-mylyn-builds | eclipse-mylyn-builds, eclipse-mylyn-builds-hudson |
And here is the mapping of upstream Eclipse Mylyn features to Fedora's binary RPMs:
| Binary RPM | Includes Eclipse Mylyn upstream feature id |
|---|---|
| eclipse-mylyn-commons | org.eclipse.mylyn.commons |
| eclipse-mylyn | org.eclipse.mylyn_feature |
| eclipse-mylyn-ide | org.eclipse.mylyn.ide_feature |
| eclipse-mylyn-context | org.eclipse.mylyn.context_feature |
| eclipse-mylyn-context-team | org.eclipse.mylyn.team_feature |
| eclipse-mylyn-context-pde | org.eclipse.mylyn.pde_feature |
| eclipse-mylyn-context-java | org.eclipse.mylyn.java_feature |
| eclipse-mylyn-context-cdt | org.eclipse.cdt.mylyn |
| eclipse-mylyn-tasks-trac | org.eclipse.mylyn.trac_feature |
| eclipse-mylyn-tasks-bugzilla | org.eclipse.mylyn.bugzilla_feature |
| eclipse-mylyn-docs-wikitext | org.eclipse.mylyn.wikitext_feature |
| eclipse-mylyn-docs-htmltext | org.eclipse.mylyn.htmltext |
| eclipse-mylyn-versions | org.eclipse.mylyn.versions |
| eclipse-mylyn-versions-git | org.eclipse.mylyn.git |
| eclipse-mylyn-versions-cvs | org.eclipse.mylyn.cvs |
| eclipse-mylyn-builds | org.eclipse.mylyn.builds |
| eclipse-mylyn-builds-hudson | org.eclipse.mylyn.hudson |
Recommended Packaging Order for Future Eclipse Mylyn Upstream Releases due to Dependencies
We recommend to package Eclipse Mylyn upstream releases in the following order (this is a known to be working):
- eclipse-mylyn-commons
- eclipse-mylyn
- eclipse-mylyn-context
- eclipse-mylyn-ide
- eclipse-mylyn-tasks
- eclipse-mylyn-docs
- eclipse-mylyn-versions
- eclipse-mylyn-builds
Implications for Eclipse Mylyn (version < 3.5.0) Dependent Packages
First note that users should be able to update their mylyn packages as usual ( yum update eclipse-mylyn\*). However, due to the restructuring of Eclipse Mylyn packages in Fedora, it may be required to update dependencies for Mylyn dependent Eclipse plug-ins. It may also be required to update build requirements for Mylyn dependent RPMs in Fedora. Here is a table showing which Mylyn 3.5 packages replace old (< 3.5) Mylyn packages (above tables and the following table may be helpful determining the correct packages for updating your R/BR's in relevant spec files):
| Old RPM Package Name | Since Mylyn 3.5 in Fedora Provided By |
|---|---|
| eclipse-mylyn | eclipse-mylyn-commons, eclipse-mylyn, eclipse-mylyn-tasks-bugzilla, eclipse-mylyn-context, eclipse-mylyn-context-team, eclipse-mylyn-ide (eclipse-mylyn used to provide all corresponding features; see feature/rpm-package mapping table for a more granular listing). |
| eclipse-mylyn-trac | eclipse-mylyn-tasks-trac |
| eclipse-mylyn-java | eclipse-mylyn-context-java |
| eclipse-mylyn-pde | eclipse-mylyn-context-pde |
| eclipse-mylyn-cdt | eclipse-mylyn-context-cdt |
| eclipse-mylyn-webtasks | eclipse-mylyn-tasks-web |
| eclipse-mylyn-wikitext | eclipse-mylyn-docs-wikitext |
Also, have a look in /usr/share/eclipse/dropins for plug-in dependency names to be used by the -d option of %{_libdir}/eclipse/buildscripts/pdebuild. All mylyn related plug-ins contain the string "mylyn" in the directory name.
