Currently Fedora News Project[1] is looking for two or more writers for up-coming-issue of Fedora Weekly News. Selected writers are expected to pick out the several major topics discussed in that week from following mailing lists and summarized them in a few paragraph.: * Development Section: fedora-devel-list, fedora-extras-list and fedora-maintainers-list * Documentation Section: fedora-docs-list * Events and Meetings: fedora-ambassadors-list and fedora-marketing-list These paragraphs will be edited by our editors and eventually published in our next issue of Fedora Weekly News. If you're interested in this project, please contact me as soon as possible. Regards, [1] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/NewsProject -- Thomas Chung http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ThomasChung

Rawhide will be a bit late today...
by Jesse Keating 28 Mar '07

28 Mar '07

As expected, something blew up a bit in the rawhide compose process now that we've unfroze. However HOW it blew up was completely unexpected, but very easy to recover from. Rawhide is composing again and should see the light of day in a few hours. -- Jesse Keating Release Engineer: Fedora

We've been seeing it ever since we enabled CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED about 2.6.20-rc6-git1. For the moment I've committed a hack to disable the extra variables in uevents, since that wasn't why we turned SYSFS_DEPRECATED on again anyway. It's not a fix though. -- dwmw2

Presto 0.3.0
by Jonathan Dieter 28 Mar '07

28 Mar '07

I've just finished yum-presto-0.3.0. The major difference between it and 0.2.9 is that presto will now attempt to download the full rpm if it is unable to rebuild it from the deltarpm. This involved a lot of new code, so you may run into some bugs, but it should be much faster than 0.2.9 when checking deltarpms. Jonathan

When you drop a subpackage, please remember to add proper Obsoletes/Provides to the main package so that the subpackage is properly removed with the next update. E.g., for your viewvc changes something like the following would suffice: Obsoletes: %{name}-selinux < 1.0.3-12%{?dist} Provides: %{name}-selinux = 1.0.3-12%{?dist} Thanks. -- Peter Gordon (codergeek42) / FSF & EFF Member GnuPG Public Key ID: 0xFFC19479 / Fingerprint: DD68 A414 56BD 6368 D957 9666 4268 CB7A FFC1 9479 Blog: http://thecodergeek.com/blog/ About: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PeterGordon

serial port kernel configuration problem for PowerMacs
by Joseph Sacco 28 Mar '07

28 Mar '07

There is a well known device number contention bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=155895 that prevents serial ports on PowerMacs from functioning when 8250 support is built directly into the kernel. While we wait [forever???] for LANANA to assign a set of device numbers for pmac_zlog that do not conflict with those assigned to the 8250, there is a simple workaround: build 8250 support as a loadable module: # # Serial drivers # CONFIG_SERIAL_8250=m CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_PCI=m CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_PNP=m I don't know of any platform that has both 8250 and pmac_zilog serial ports so this should be a painless workaround. -Joseph -- jsacco [at] gnome [dot] org
