Issues for folk participating in the Open Ecosystems hackathon
The script helper_script.py takes an arbitrary file and tries to guess the product and find potential signatures. It works really well with distro package files like rpms. Right now, if you you give it a file named
libmodulemd-2.13.0-2.el9.x86_64.rpm
it will guess that the name islibmodulemd
and use that to do some searching. But sometimes with libraries, we might want to also try searching the name withoutlib
in front (e.g.modeulemd
). If you want to do that right now, you can specify the name manually using the-p
flag for the helper_script, but it would be really cool if it tried removing the lib prefix automatically.This issue is reserved for a participant in the Open Source Hackaton 2023. Please leave it for hackathon participants through the end of April. If it hasn't been claimed by May 5 it will be open to any contributor who wants to work on it.
