Hello!
In the iteration of all the changes for roast, we have finally released a new major version, 7.x series. Although, I really don't care much about the strictness of version numbers, this release brings a new addition, a feature flag called obs
. This is OpenBuildService specific, and it allows it to become an alternative to obs-service-set_version
+ obs-service-obs_scm
, hence, a combination of both services.
roast itself is using this to package itself to b-o-o using the following _service
file configuration.

v7.1.1
v(.*)

true

roast*.tar.zst
true
which can be seen here.
In the future, I will release a small video tutorial on how to use roast_scm
for b-o-o.
Because the crate is written in Rust, I intentionally made it part of obs-service-cargo because of this PR which is now merged. With this, sources can now be fetched from git sources and vendored in just one XML file, like for obs-service-cargo
itself:
https://github.com/openSUSE-Rust/obs-service-cargo
true
^v?(.*)

true

which can also be seen here.
Since I am one of the active Rust packagers in openSUSE, I plan to just switch and use this new feature for vendoring auto-magically.
Well, that's just it for this short update.
