Eclipse Mylyn >= 3.5.0 Packaging Notes

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:

  1. org.eclipse.mylyn
  2. org.eclipse.mylyn.commons
  3. org.eclipse.mylyn.contexts
  4. org.eclipse.mylyn.tasks
  5. org.eclipse.mylyn.versions
  6. org.eclipse.mylyn.builds
  7. org.eclipse.mylyn.docs
  8. 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 yet in Fedora 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

Implications for Eclipse Mylyn (version < 3.5.0) Dependent Packages

Due to the restructuring of Eclipse Mylyn packages in Fedora, it may be required to update dependencies for Mylyn dependent Eclipse plug-ins packaged in Fedora. Here is a table showing which mylyn 3.5 packages have virtual provides for old eclipse-mylyn* packages:

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):

  1. eclipse-mylyn-commons
  2. eclipse-mylyn
  3. eclipse-mylyn-context
  4. eclipse-mylyn-ide
  5. eclipse-mylyn-tasks
  6. eclipse-mylyn-docs
  7. eclipse-mylyn-versions
  8. eclipse-mylyn-builds


Using Red Hat Bugzilla with Mylyn >= 3.5.0

The eclipse-mylyn-tasks-bugzilla package allows Mylyn users to interact with Bugzilla bug trackers from within Eclipse. As of version 3.5.0 of Mylyn it also supports Bugzilla instances, which use custom workflows. Here are instructions as to how to set up a Red Hat Bugzilla task repository.

Install eclipse-mylyn-tasks-bugzilla

eclipse-mylyn-tasks-bugzilla is available in Fedora 15 and later.

su -c "yum install eclipse-mylyn-tasks-bugzilla"

Set up the Mylyn task repository with the provided custom transition file

Fire up Eclipse and open the "Task Repositories" view provided by Mylyn: "Window" => "Show View" => "Other..." => "Mylyn" => "Task Repositories". Right-click and select "Add New Task Repository...":

Once you've clicked on that, you'll have the choice to select task repository-types. Please select "Bugzilla":

When you click "Next" you should see something like this:
