We typically recommend using the template: > https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Template:QA/Test_Case Just a heads up, at the suggestion of Adam, I posted QA spin [1] images that include the following test day packages: selinux-policy-targeted policycoreutils-gui setroubleshoot audit xguest Links to the live images and sha256sum's are on the wiki page.

buildinstall on Fedora 11
by Marcus Moeller 19 Oct '09

19 Oct '09

Hi all, I am trying to respin a F11 DVD while I have noticed that anaconda packages are not part of the DVDs 'Packages' directory, so buildinstall fails on this package tree. How is buildinstall used on current Fedora releases? Or has it been replaced, already? Best Regards Marcus

Fwd: [Test-Announce] 2009-10-20 Confined Users Test Day
by Eduard Benes 19 Oct '09

19 Oct '09

Hi friends, I would like to invite you to join Confined Users test day which will be held tomorrow, 2009-10-20. Please come out to Freenode IRC #fedora-test-day or #fedora-selinux and help us improve SELinux policy. You will need a machine with updated Fedora 12 or rawhide (virtualized machines are welcomed too :-)). Testing is pretty straightforward: all requirements and test cases are described in details here[1]. SELinux Confined Users is a feature where SELinux role is assigned to each user and where the SELinux policy controls what the user can do/access on the system. Dan Walsh and Miroslav Grepl will help us to solve issues. Thanks to all who come along to help test! Milos Malik P.S.: There is no bravery in running Fedora/RHEL with disabled SELinux ;-) 1: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2009-10-20 -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list(a)redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list

How can I get a response on a specific bz report concerning sane-backends?
by mike cloaked 19 Oct '09

19 Oct '09

Two weeks ago I reported https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=527137 Since this could well affect quite a few people with scanners of various flavours I though that some response to the report might have been seen on the above link by now. Am I barking up the wrong tree or is my diagnosis that there is a packaging bug correct? How does one know if the maintainer concerned has seen the report, and if there is no action following up on the bz, how does one ask for a second maintainer to have a look at it? Thanks.

RPM Database issue
by Ganotis, Ioannis 19 Oct '09

19 Oct '09

Hi All, While working with package management, installing/uninstalling various RPMs, I came up with a question regarding the RPM Database where package-related information is being stored. The default location of the system's RPM_DB is at /var/lib/rpm. I can then create a second (private) RPM_DB (e.g. /var/lib/my_rpm) with the 'rpm --dbpath /var/lib/my_rpm --initdb' command. After that, using the '--dbpath' option I can select at which RPM_DB an RPM is going to be installed. The problem is when I try to install an RPM in the private RPM_DB which has dependencies on other packages which exist in the system's default RPM_DB. Is there any way for the second RPM_DB to somehow extend the default DB while installing a package ? This means that when installing an RPM in the private RPM_DB it should first check for dependencies in BOTH RPM databases. Also is there any way for "synchronizing" two or more RPM Databases ? Thanks for your time in advance With best regards, Ioannis Ganotis

Packaging files that rpmbuild's auto-{requires,provides} trips on
by Conrad Meyer 18 Oct '09

18 Oct '09

Hi, I'm packaging some data files for a package and having trouble getting rpmbuild to finish. At some point in (I'm guessing) the autorequires/provides scripts, file(1) returns a 1 code, and rpmbuild chokes and dies. So, my question here is: 1) How do I get these scripts to ignore this file? and also: 2) Should the autorequires/provides scripts die when they stumble across a file file(1) errors on, or should they just assume it doesn't require or provide anything? Thanks, -- Conrad Meyer <cemeyer(a)u.washington.edu>

Did something happen to blobAndConquer?
by Bruno Wolff III 17 Oct '09

17 Oct '09

blobAndConquer seems to have dropped out of today's rawhide repo even though it is still tagged for dist-f12, f12-beta and f12-final. Are other people seeing this?

USB Keyboard Amok?
by Petrus de Calguarium 17 Oct '09

17 Oct '09

Hardware: Logitech USB Keyboard Asus Motherboard Problem: Approximately every 100th cold boot/system restart, the BIOS message, as it is displaying memory, hard drives, etc., is all scrambled, even in colour, and the beep that normally occurs at boot becomes a single long ring that never stops, and the system hangs, unresponsive to any input. Solution: To remedy this, one must unplug the computer, wait until the LED on the motherboard extinguishes, remove the battery from the motherboard, plug in a spare PS/2 keyboard, put the battery and power cable back in, and reboot. Then, the BIOS settings must all be set from scratch, as they are totally awry - no, not the defaults! If one does not use a PS/2 keyboard, no keyboard entry is possible. If one does not remove the battery, then some mysterious BIOS supervisor password will be set that cannot be circumvented (I don't use a BIOS supervisor password). After having performed all of these steps, the system works perfectly, like before, until about the 100th time (wild guess - a long time - but often the problem occurs 2 or 3 times in a row, then not at all for weeks). Curiously, the same problem existed with a previous Asus motherboard (same USB keyboard, which works perfectly, as far I am able to determine from regular, daily use). Is this an Asus problem, since 2 Asus motherboards are affected (I upgraded the BIOS, but there have not been any new upgrades available for 18 months), a USB keyboard problem (the problem occured on the older motherboard while kbd, not evdev, was in use), or something altogether different? I have been unable to replicate the problem or determine any actions/states that appear to produce it.
