cpp signed differently from gcc?
by Pete Zaitcev
Not sure anyone cares, but I saw something strange.
[root@devel6 s390x]# rpm -U cpp-3.3.3-7.s390x.rpm gcc-3.3.3-7.s390x.rpm gcc-c++-3.3.3-7.s390x.rpm gcc-g77-3.3.3-7.s390x.rpm gcc-java-3.3.3-7.s390x.rpm libstdc++-3.3.3-7.s390x.rpm libgcj-3.3.3-7.s390x.rpm libgcc-3.3.3-7.s390x.rpm libf2c-3.3.3-7.s390x.rpm /mnt/redhat/beehive/comps/dist/fc2/gettext/0.14.1-2.1/s390x/gettext-0.14.1-2.1.s390x.rpm libstdc++-devel-3.3.3-7.s390x.rpm libgcj-devel-3.3.3-7.s390x.rpm
warning: cpp-3.3.3-7.s390x.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 30c9ecf8
[root@devel6 s390x]#
This would be a non-event except that everything in that directory
is built from the same SRPM by the same Beehive run. So, why is
everything signed right but not cpp? I suspect a run of gpg with
"gcc*" argument.

packages with odd file-dependencies.
by seth vidal
Hi all,
Some packages with very odd file deps - I wanted to check on.
I was going through the tree looking for packages that had file deps
that did not match:
*bin/*
/etc/*
so here is what I found - some of these are odd:
dia-0.92.2-3.1.i386.rpm
/usr/share/desktop-menu-patches/redhat-diagrams.desktop
this file is part of redhat-menus and apparently nothing else - why
not just depend off of that?
xmms-1.2.10-2.p.i386.rpm
/usr/share/desktop-menu-patches/redhat-audio-player.desktop
ditto of above.
gdm-2.6.0.0-2.i386.rpm
/usr/share/desktop-menu-patches/gnome-gdmsetup.desktop
ditto of above.
gnome-session-2.6.0-1.i386.rpm
/usr/share/pixmaps/splash/gnome-splash.png - in fedora-logs
httpd-2.0.49-2.i386.rpm
/usr/share/magic.mime - part of file - why not depend on that?
inn-2.3.5-9.i386.rpm
/usr/lib/news/lib/innshellvars.pl - this file is actually provided by
inn. :)
openldap-servers-2.1.29-1.i386.rpm
/usr/share/openldap/migration/migrate_common.ph - this file is provided
by openldap-servers :)
openmotif-2.2.3-2.i386.rpm
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysymDB - xorg-x11-libs-data - kinda lengthy but
why not list it?
redhat-lsb-1.3-1.i386.rpm
/usr/lib/lsb/install_initd
/usr/lib/lsb/remove_initd
- these are both provided by redhat-lsb
rhn-applet-2.1.7-1.1.i386.rpm
/usr/share/rhn/RHNS-CA-CERT
- how about depending on up2date instead?
spamassassin-2.63-7.i386.rpm
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3
- depending on 'perl' is just not ok?
stunnel-4.05-1.i386.rpm
/usr/share/dict/words - this one baffles me - why does stunnel depend
on this?
vim-enhanced-6.2.457-1.i386.rpm
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.3/i386-linux-thread-multi
xchat-2.0.7-5.i386.rpm
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.3/i386-linux-thread-multi
why do these two depend on a directory?
thoughts on these?
I'll be glad to fix the spec files up and get rid of these file deps.

Extend RH9 support beyond FC2 release
by Peter Backlund
Hello.
Given that FC2 is scheduled to be released on May 17, would it be
possible to extend the errata lifetime for RH9 by one month, making EOL
happen on May 31 instead of April 30? That would allow for a smooth
upgrade from RH9 to FC2, with a few days to the mirrors to catch up,
some margin for delays and even time for the most common quirks to hit
the faqs.

Problems with SCSI/sg.ko & USB/(uhci_hcd.ko + usb_storage.ko)
by Casimiro de Almeida Barreto
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hello,
Again, an old nasty problem is back: using the latest
linux-2.6.5-1.327, when I attach an IOMEGA ZIP CD (USB) (RW) unity to
USB port, usb_storage recons it and registers correcty (both at /sys
and /proc/...), device /dev/scd0 is active (I can read CDs) and I got
a message indicating that it was registered as sr0 (althought I cannot
have access do /dev/sr0). But the device is not reconned by sg.ko (is
is not registered).
The first consequence of this behaviour is that I cannot record
anything using the unity.
I tried almost everything: from the module loading order, etc.. (this
worked in old RH8.0).
Have anybody had the same probem?
Best regards,
Casimiro

Ayup.
* Anything else special?
Nothing else comes to mind.

Editor, Fidonews Software Versions List.
Currently: Packaging crm114 rpms for SourceForge file release.

Depends on one's definition of "trust".
As Director of Online Operations for MAPS, I oversaw day-to-day operations

sites, including several major ISPs and tier-1 providers. At the time, it
was operated as a philanthropic not-for-profit community service project,
with dozens of volunteer contributors.
That doesn't necessarily mean anyone should trust me, though.
