Multilib packages and common identical files issue
by Matthias Saou
Hi,
I've searched through bugzilla, and haven't found any entry about this
problem, although it would be pretty amazing if no one had yet filed a
bug for it...
Quick "how to reproduce" (on x86_64) :
# yum install zlib
[...]
Installed: zlib.i386 0:1.2.3-3
Dependency Installed: glibc.i686 0:2.4.90-35
Complete!
[root@python3 ~]# rpm -e zlib.i386
[root@python3 ~]# rpm -V zlib
missing /usr/share/doc/zlib-1.2.3
missing d /usr/share/doc/zlib-1.2.3/README
#
This is quite a problem, since after a default x86_64 FC6t3 install,
I've done "yum remove glibc.i686" to get rid of all legacy x86 packages
on my system, and now "rpm -Va" reports missing man pages,
documentation files and translations for many, many packages.
This might be the cause of some issues I've been seeing after a reboot
today, with GNOME getting stuck, an error message about a file related
to the workspace switcher...
I've been removing (--justdb) all packages with missing files, then
reinstalling them, but this is messing some configuration files around
and will possibly cause more harm since many pre/post scriplets aren't
meant to run in these conditions.
Am I right to believe that this is a bug in rpm, where it should be
keeping these "common" files upon erasing one of the two multilib
packages (and ideally timestamping them with the correct timestamps
from the remaining package)?

Bluez packages in FC6
by David Woodhouse
A while ago, I updated bluez-libs to the new 3.x version, since it had a
new soname and I wanted to make sure anything using it got rebuilt
against the new version.
The plan was to update bluez-utils and replace the horrid bluez-pin
package with the shiny new bluez-gnome, but other things (mostly OLPC
hardware bringup) have been taking priority.
I've now found the time to do the bluez stuff, and have set it up for
testing -- I appreciate that it's fairly late to be doing this, but I'd
like to do the minor update of bluez-libs to 3.6, along with the update
of bluez-utils from its ancient 2.25 version to 3.6. That will require
building bluez-gnome in place of bluez-pin, too.
Yes, it's far later than I'd like to be doing this, but the alternative
is that we end up swapping them out _later_ in an erratum, which is
_far_ more likely to be problematic. I've can make some time now to do a
proper test of bluez stuff in advance of the fc6 release, and in fact I
have a strong suspicion that after what I've done today, the new
packages have probably had _more_ testing than the old ones in rawhide.
Hands up those who've actually done any testing of bluetooth stuff in
rawhide...?
I've got packages just about ready to go; I'm still working on testing
the stuff which is _known_ to be broken in rawhide but which shouldn't
be broken with the new packages. I'd like to put them into FC6.
Comments, objections?

WIRELESS 0.3
by Frank S.
Hi thank you for your reply, I do not have a lot of problem with wireless cards, but why we have to make it harder to people starting to use LINUX, It seams that other Distros do NOT have this problems about legal or they are not afraid (Ubuntu, freespire, SLED 10, Mepis, and others) the problem is that there are to many Distros and when people have problems with one they do not bother to fix the problem they just try another Distro, If we want to make Fedora Core Bigger we have to start thinking in a diff. way.

X not working since yesterday's update
by Horst H. von Brand
Since yesterday, Gnome (and XFCE4 beta, and WindowMaker) start fine, I can
move through the graphical menus fine, but not start any programs that way.
Starting from another vty:
DISPLAY=:0 xterm
gives a normal xterm, but I can't type anything into it, no reaction to
mouse, ...
I think this is due to xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.1.1-43.fc6 (or something in
that bunch), but I have no earlier version I could try.

Then this has to be a gnome clock applet bug in that it is ignoring the
timezone during its calculations. Now that the problem has been properly
identified I will open a bug if one does not exist already.

rpm build issues
by Ted Toth
I downloaded the rawhide kernel sources and tried to make a i686 rpm.
Following the instructions on
http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/release-notes/fc6test2/ I ran 'rpmbuild
-bp --target i686 kernel-2.6.spec' then copied
configs/kernel-2.6.17-i686.config to .config and edited the Makefile
changing EXTRAVERSION = -prep to EXTRAVERSION = -1.2647.fc6. I then
did a 'make oldconfig' (unclear why this is necessary since the copied
a prebuilt config file already) and then 'make rpm'. The result of the
make is rpmbuild/RPMS/i386/kernel-2.6.171.2647.fc6-1.i386.rpm and
there are several issues with this:
1) a i386 rpm was produced not a i686 rpm
2) the EXTRAVERSION losses its '-' and so is run up against the kernel
version in the file name '2.6.171.2647.fc6'
Are the instruction correct? Are these bugs in the build system?

Thank you for the post. I tried the instructions and the same results. I
am beginning to think this is a gnome clock applet display bug something
like it is using the wrong timezone to display the date.

I tried both with UTC and without. This time problem has been happening
since test2.
Date displays the correct time, the gnome clock applet shows five hours in
the future. Central time is 7 hours behind GMT if my memory is right. The
timezone is set correctly according to the applet.
