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:
- 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 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 |
| 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
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:
