rust2rpm Version 24.3.0 ============== This version adds new settings to `rust2rpm.conf`: - `summary`: override the RPM package's `Summary` with a specific string if the heuristics for generating a summary from the crate's description produces nonsense - `supported-arches`: build library crates and run their tests only on architectures where they are supported The second setting allows generating spec files for Rust crates that only have limited cross-platform compatibility that can still be included in repositories for all architectures. This provides a workaround for limitations of RPM (subpackages do not inherit `ExcludeArch` / `ExclusiveArch` tags) and Fedora build infrastructure (`noarch` packages are included in repositories for all architectures), and should make it possible to enable more features in more crates without introducing broken dependencies on architectures where some crates do not work. Version 24.2.0 ============== This version adds a new `--compat` CLI flag to rust2rpm. It automatically sets the package version suffix based on SemVer compatibility rules. rust2rpm knows which suffix compat packages need based on the version that is passed, so there is no need for the user to guess and pass it manually. The old `--suffix [SUFFIX]` CLI argument is now deprecated in favor of using `--compat`. Version 24.1.0 ============== Added: - Added an `enabled-features` setting to `rust2rpm.conf` files. This setting accepts a list of features which will be explicitly enabled, i.e. passed as flags to `%cargo_*` macros. This is useful when building binaries with additional non-default features, or when running tests requires enabling additional features. - Added warnings when the currently processed spec file uses version restrictions that are more strict than SemVer. Strong restrictions like these are almost always in place for reasons that don't apply to distribution packages (for example, MSRV compatibility policy). - Added "interactive" mode for generating spec files for projects that use a cargo workspace. This mode is required when the heuristics for determining the "main" crate (i.e. for determining the package name and version) fail. Changed: - Feature flags for required features of binary targets are automatically added to `%cargo_*` macro calls in generated spec files. The detection of "binary" targets does not take `required-features` into account, so these features need to be explicitly enabled for the expected binaries to be built by `cargo install` (which skips targets with missing `required-features`). - Attempting to generate spec files for crates that have SemVer "build metadata" in their version string now prints an error and fails. This was previously accepted, but could result in broken packages. - Parsing of `rust2rpm.conf` files now fails if the file content is considered "invalid" (for example, because of unrecognized or inconsistent settings). Fixed: - Tests no longer start to fail every January 1st. The current year is now correctly stripped from test fixtures. Version 24.0.2 ============== Changed: - Rendered spec files now include a "FIXME" in the `%install` section for crates that build shared libraries with a C ABI (i.e. crates with a `cdylib` binary target). Fixed: - Crates that manually specify their crate type as "rlib" (which is equivalent to the default "lib" crate type) are now detected as libraries correctly. This fix requires bumping the dependency on cargo2rpm to >= 0.1.2. Version 24.0.1 ============== Fixed: - Additional Requires for feature subpackages specified in rust2rpm.conf settings are respected again (fixes regression from 24.0.0). Version 24.0.0 ============== This release contains large internal changes to support more use cases and Rust projects that use new syntax for feature dependencies in their Cargo.toml metadata. The functionality for translating between cargo and RPM metadata and the RPM macros and dependency generators were moved to separate projects. Additionally, the versioning scheme of rust2rpm has changed to allow for minor or bugfix-only releases that do not change spec file rendering and which don't require bumping the version number in the "# Generated by rust2rpm XX" header. Added: - Support for building non-crate projects that use cargo workspaces was added. - The default Rust compiler flags now support conditionally building Rust code with frame pointers (only enabled on Fedora 38+ on x86_64 and aarch64). - New syntax for cargo feature dependencies (`dep:foo`) is now supported when creating "remove foreign dependencies" patches. - Rust crates that exclusively build shared libraries (`cdylib` targets) are now (partially) supported by rust2rpm and no longer cause crashes. Changed: - Large parts of the project were refactored, modernized, reorganized into smaller files, and updated with type annotations. - The deprecated `requests.compat` module is no longer used, as all methods used by rust2rpm have been part of the Python standard library for years. Fixed: - Logic for determining the list of feature subpackages was fixed. The assumptions in the previous implementation were broken for crates that use Rust 1.60+ syntax for feature dependencies. - Logic for sorting binaries in %files lists was fixed to not cause crashes if there are two or more binaries. - Logic in the cfg-expression evaluation was fixed and no longer produces architecture-specific patches. - Logic for checking for the existence of a dist-git repo for the current package was fixed to account for URL formatting issues. - Files that are read when trying to detect the "host linux distribution" are now closed correctly. - Test fixtures were added for the year 2023. Removed: - The cargo-inspector executable was removed. It is no longer used by Rust RPM macros. - Files for RPM macros and dependency generators were moved into a separate project (rust-packaging). Version 23 ========== Added: - New macros for collecting license information for all crates that are statically linked into a Rust binary (`%cargo_license` and `%cargo_license_summary`). - Add support for specifying "testrequires" in rust2rpm.conf. These work similar to "buildrequires", but the specified dependencies will be wrapped in an `%if %{with check}` conditional in the generated spec file. This can be used to specify BuildRequires that are only needed when running a crate's test suite, but which are not necessary to build the crate itself. Changed: - The list of binaries in %files is now consistently sorted in generated spec files (this only affects crates that build more than one binary, of course). - Fall back to the latest pre-release if there are no stable releases (or if all previously published stable released have been yanked). - Dropped `ExclusiveArch: %{rust_arches}` when generating spec files for Fedora. RPM itself will start to depend on Rust components, so Rust will by definition need to be available on all architectures that are supported by Fedora. - Replaced `i686` with the `%{ix86}` macro in `%{rust_arches}`. Fixed: - Ensure that rust2rpm doesn't auto-generate architecture-dependent patches. - Ensure both automatically generated and manually written patches affect spec file generation (i.e. feature subpackages). - Fix evaluation of cfg-expressions that contain the new "wasm64" target. - Only remove target-specific dependencies from feature dependencies if they are optional. - The logic for replacing the current version of rust2rpm when comparing spec output in tests has been fixed for OpenSUSE spec templates. Version 22 ========== This release comes with lots of improvements, bug fixes, and new features, but also drops support for Python versions older than 3.10. Added: - Add macros to allow overriding default Rust compiler flags without needing to manually invoke sed: %rustflags_opt_level, %rustflags_debuginfo, %rustflags_codegen_units (PR#182 / @zbyszek) - Add a new rust2rpm.conf setting that mirrors the "--all-features" CLI argument of rust2rpm (PR#191 / @decathorpe) - Add support for running rust2rpm without an explicit crate name argument, and use heuristics (value of the %crate macro in an existing spec file, or the name of the current directory) as fallback values (PR#197 / @zbyszek) - Add a parser and evaluation logic for "cfg"-expressions and automatically generate a Cargo.toml patch that removes "foreign" dependencies (PR#183 / @zbyszek) - Add CC-PDDC ("Creative Commons Public Domain Dedication and Certification") to the list of accepted licenses (PR#203 / @yizhengxie) - Added simple logger functionality and print messages to stderr to ensure the "--stdout" mode of rust2rpm continues to work (@decathorpe).

Fixed: - Various fixes for the automatic detection of rpmautospec usage in existing spec files and the "--rpmautospec" and "--no-rpmautospec" CLI arguments (PR#190, PR#195 / @zbyszek, @andersblomdell) - Fix building with Rust 1.62+, which now fails when re-packaging sources from crates.io (PR#194 / @decathorpe) - Fixed the "existence check" when running rust2rpm by requesting the correct URL (PR#199 / @decathorpe) -
