moving .so, headers and .a libs to -devel bugreports
by Patrice Dumas 22 Aug '06

22 Aug '06

Hello, I have opened many bugs asking for creation of -devel packages for some packages that don't have one but ship static library, headers or .so links. I have filled some others to have the .so links go in -devel subpackages and not main package. I only looked at packages that are on my computer, so I am likely to have missed some, feel free to post bugs too ;) I tried to avoid asking creation of -devel package or move of .so when it didn't make sense, but I may have filled bogus bug reports anyway (especially when a .so is required in main package as the library is dlopened, and the library is versioned! it may happen although it is ugly). I can give the list of bugreports if somebody is interested. I didn't do a bugreport for gjdoc, since a .so may be needed for java. -- Pat

acpi_cpufreq module not loading in current kernels
by Dan Horák 22 Aug '06

22 Aug '06

Hello, at least two of us (Paul F. Johnson and me) have problems with loading the acpi_cpufreq module in current rawhide kernels. As a result the CPU is running on its highest frequency, not good on a notebook :-( It used to work some time ago :-) And as I have tested it is not an issue SMP vs. ACPI. I plan to test some vanilla kernels too. Is here anybody with the same problem? https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=201832 Dan

list of compiz/aiglx compatible cards?
by Sam Folk-Williams 22 Aug '06

22 Aug '06

Is any one aware of a list of cards that are known to work with the compiz bling? For example, my radeon 7000 works enough to see the effects, but the right 1/4 of the monitor disappears :(. The Nvidia GeForce 440 does not work at all. If anyone can point me to something that'd be great. Thanks, Sam -- Sam Folk-Williams, RHCE Red Hat Global Support Services Phone: 919/754-4558 GPG ID: 1B0D46BA

Multilib in FC7? Disable by default?
by Gilboa Davara 22 Aug '06

22 Aug '06

Hello all, I've got a simple question that I'd like to table for discussion. Current -devel tree seems to suggest that FC6 multilib FC6 has almost doubled in size (from ~13% of the total package count in FC4/5 to ~24% in the current devel tree) On the other hand, FC6 is about to include native 64bit OO and gcj (with browser support) builds, lowering the need for the default i386 support, as only Wine/Extra actually -requires- multilib support to run. More-ever, I'd venture to guess that most x86_64 installation will most likely be used to run native 64bit services and application - mostly on servers and workstation - lowering the need for multilib even further. (You won't run 32bit flash on your brand new 32 cores server... let alone that fact that flash/win32codecs are not supported by Fedora.) My question is simple: why not add an installation option to disable multilib support completely. Mind you, I use my workstation to run 32bit software and games... but I rather disable multilib completely and create a small, specialized 'stupid' i386 chroot (no DE, no user-applications; only a basic set of i386 libraries and UI toolkits) and use it to run i386 applications in a confined space. (Xen/i386 might be an interesting option - though it won't be able to run hardware GL applications which I need... ;)) - Gilboa

[DEP-BLOAT] 'sendmail' requires 'cyrus-sasl'
by Enrico Scholz 22 Aug '06

22 Aug '06

Hello, the 'sendmail' package has a dependency on '/usr/sbin/saslauthd' (cyrus-sasl package). This daemon is required for certain setups only and should not be required therefore. Enrico

[DEP-BLOAT] what the hell is Kerberos?
by Leszek Matok 22 Aug '06

22 Aug '06

I remember trying to make a Fedora router system which would fit onto 250 MB flash. I failed because of the dependency bloat that we're talking about today. So now, I don't remember all of the not needed packages (and some of them look fixed, for example, passwd required cyrus-sasl back then), but I want to ask you, what is this Kerberos thing? Look :) $ rpm -qi krb5-libs (...) Kerberos is a network authentication system. The krb5-libs package contains the shared libraries needed by Kerberos 5. If you are using Kerberos, you need to install this package. I don't need it (never heard of it, actually), so I don't need to install it (according to the description), hooray, let's remove it (it's 1,2 MiB big!). # yum remove krb5-libs (...) Remove 650 Package(s) Is this ok [y/N]: ;) It'd be hard to convince so many apps that the lib can be optional and somehow dynamically loaded, so go on, call me a troll and don't feed me. I admit that it's the description that made it funny for me, not the dependency tree. Lam

updating mission on fedoraproject wiki?
by Hans de Goede 22 Aug '06

22 Aug '06

Hi, I've just read's Max interview on Slashdot, and he says the following there: "Our mission statement is clear, and is one that I think any open-source developer would appreciate. Fedora is about the rapid progress of Free and Open Source software. That's it. We strive to produce a quality distribution of free software that is cutting-edge, pushes the envelope of new open source technology, and is also robust enough that it can be relied on for server or desktop use. One of the terms that I really like, and that I think we're doing better and better of making a reality is that of Fedora as an "open development lab". As a user, if your priorities are cutting-edge technology (without the nicks and cuts of a blade) and freedom, Fedora is a great disto to use. " I gully agree with this, maybe some of this can be added to the mission part of the wiki? Regards, Hans

rpm problems on SMP (dual core)
by Erwin Rol 21 Aug '06

21 Aug '06

Is anybody else see problems with RPM on dual core cpu's. For a while it worked but now it stopped working again. rpm -qa directly hangs for ever, all other commands also hang (so a yum update doesn't work). This seems to be an kernel problem, because last time i booted into an older kernel and that made everything work again. So i thought the problem was fixed, but it seems i was wrong. - Erwin

anaconda: possible recursive locking detected
