Description Ezequiel Partida 2022-09-07 02:01:58 CEST

Hello,

I have been trying to make the next package work for MGA without success.

https://github.com/displaylink-rpm/displaylink-rpm

The make file downloads https://www.synaptics.com/sites/default/files/exe_files/2022-08/DisplayLink USB Graphics Software for Ubuntu5.6.1-EXE.zip

Once downloaded, it unpacks it and creates the rpm file witout any problems, the only problem is while installing it.

</>
$dnf install displaylink-1.12.0-1.x86_64.rpm

Downloading Packages:
Running transaction check
Transaction check succeeded.
Running transaction test
Transaction test succeeded.
Running transaction
Preparing : 1/1
Installing : displaylink-1.12.0-1.x86_64 1/1
Running scriptlet: displaylink-1.12.0-1.x86_64 1/1
Job for displaylink-driver.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See “systemctl status displaylink-driver.service” and “journalctl -xeu displaylink-driver.service” for details.
warning: %post(displaylink-1.12.0-1.x86_64) scriptlet failed, exit status 1
</>

I checked on the .specs file to see if there is something different but was no able to identify the problem, I asked on #mageia-dev channel and Luigi told me that it has to do with systemd since fedora systemd is different from Mageia´s.

If someone could help me on modifying the specs file o creating the first package I can probably maintain the next one.

Regards
ZekeMX

Thank you for working on Mageia :)
Packaging work/help is for packagers, assigning
Maybe also consult dev ml or chat

Hello Morgan,

I already send a request to the dev ml with no response in more than a week.

Regards

I guess the people are stressed getting cauldron fit for mga9 beta...

It would be great if you join packaging :)

Until someone answers, have your read
