Fwd: How about releasing an update of xorg-x11-drv-intel for Fedora 11

But a lot of issues in the core OS from the kernel up to gnome-desktop can require extensive knowledge to diagnose, and we just can't expect as much feedback. Especially for critpath components that people might be more hesitant to update. Pages like this one: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_debug_Xorg_problems are a big step forward, but we may need some way for people to give feedback about updates without having to debug enough to make a rough stab at "kernel" or "xorg-x11-drv-intel" or "gnome-power-manager".

The alternative is for the downgrade to execute, and even tougher noogies. I guess the decision is which set of noogies is tougher, or more acceptable. I thought that if there were known corner cases where a downgrade was really, really a bad idea, yum could keep someone from shooting themselves in the foot. Maybe the current behavior that doesn't attempt to protect against known failures is better. -- Charles Dostale

Maintainer MIA: Claudio Tomasoni
by Christoph Wickert 15 Oct '09

I am starting the AWOL procedure [1] for Claudio Tomasoni, because he didn't respond to a bug I opened 5 months ago [2]. Chitlesh even tried to contact him for more than 7 months [3]. We should prepare for taking over Claudio's packages [4]. If anybody knows whats up with Claudio or how to contact him, please let us know.

If it isn't that common, could yum have added directives to its configuration ( similar to " exclude= " ) ? This could increase the reliability of " yum downgrade " in the eyes of those that use it. MySQL and PostgreSQL come to mind. /etc/yum.conf might have " nodowngrade=mysql-server postgresql-server " in the default file. That's easier than carrying that info in the package or repo files. When additional packages are found to be not downgradable, they can be added to the list. Granted, if there are a lot of packages, that gets unwieldy. Also, it could break a downgrade transaction. -- Charles Dostale

mingw32 suite
by Paulo Cavalcanti 14 Oct '09

14 Oct '09

Hi, I am really pleased to see how fast the cross-compile project has evolved, and I was able to create a very simple script to cross-compile mpg123: http://orion.lcg.ufrj.br/RPMS/SPECS/cross-mingw-mpg123 However, I am more interested in cross-compiling opengl applications. Any plans to provide any opengl support for mingw32 in Fedora? Thanks. -- Paulo Roma Cavalcanti LCG - UFRJ
