RFC: mass rebuild results
by Karsten Hopp 01 Apr '08

01 Apr '08

Hello, I've done a mass rebuilt of Rawhide in an (almost) full install chroot with x86_64 packages only. Then I've run rpmdiff of the resulting packages against the rawhide packages and put together a rather large list of differences. You can grab the list from http://people.redhat.com/karsten/RPMDIFF . This list doesn't even contain the failed packages which suddenly have unpackaged files not catched by some wildcard in the %files section. - additional requirements usually mean either a missing configure flag to disable a certain feature or a missing buildrequirement p.e. RPM in Rawhide: vim-enhanced-7.1.266-1.fc9.x86_64.rpm Rebuilt RPM: vim-enhanced-7.1.266-1.fc9.x86_64.rpm added REQUIRES libruby.so.1.8()(64bit) This mean I either should have added --without-rubyinterp to vim's configure flags if I don't want ruby support or I need to add a build requirement on ruby-devel - almost every *-javadoc package gets a huge amount of additional documentation in a full install rebuild - some noarch packages put files in either /usr/lib64 or in /usr/lib, depending on which arch they have been built (example: gcstar) - some packages, p.e. evolution switch from using libgnutls to libgio ? In my opinion rebuilding packages outside of mock should give me packages with the same features than the original ones. In addition to that I shouldn't have to cope with build failures because of unpackaged files just because some other installed random package changes the filelist of my package via configure detection. The packaging guidelines mention only that the buildrequirements for the used configure flags need to be added to the spec file but I think that we should add to the guidelines that all other (unwanted) features need to be disabled via configure flags. Should I even bother to start filing the most obvious bugs or shall we leave it 'as is' ? Karsten

Google Summer of Code Idea: Fedora Election Software
by Toshio Kuratomi 31 Mar '08

31 Mar '08

Hey all, The deadline for students to submit applications for Google Summer of Code has been extended to April 7th, 2008. So if there are any other students looking for a chance to program something, I have a project that needs doing. In Fedora we have elections for the Board and various steering committees. We also have polls to determine the codename for the next Fedora Release. All of these are currently driven off a pair of small cgi scripts that spot and I whipped up to get us up and running with a Free Software solution. However, this tiny application is showing its limitations: * We can only run a single election at a time. It would be great if you signed in and then,based on the groups you belonged to, you were given a ballot for each of the elections you were eligible to vote in at a time. * There's no way to show historical records of voting (ie: 50 people of 500 possible voted in the first FESCo election. 300 of 1000 possible voted in the second. Etc.) * It would be great if elections were more self-serve. Currently I need to run a script that enters all the information into the database when a new election occurs. If this information could be added via a web form and then simply approved by an admin that would make things more efficient. We'd like the new software to be written in TurboGears since we'll have to maintain it in infrastructure but beyond that this is a chance to design the new system from start to finish (db schema, controller methods, etc). I'll add this to the wiki page as well. -Toshio

Board public meeting, 2008-04-01 UTC 1800
by Paul W. Frields 31 Mar '08

31 Mar '08

Apologies for the late notice: The Board is holding its monthly public meeting on Tuesday, 01 April 2008, at 1800 UTC on IRC Freenode. The public is invited to do the following: * Join #fedora-board-meeting to see the Board's conversation. This channel is read-only for non-Board members. * Join #fedora-board-public to discuss topics and post questions. This channel is read/write for everyone. We found that in the last meeting the Board members, by joining the #f-b-public channel, inadvertently drove some discussion away from the meeting logged in #f-b-meeting. This time around we will not join that channel, and rely entirely on our gracious moderator Max Spevack to direct questions to #f-b-meeting for us to answer. This routine should limit confusion and make sure our logs are useful to everyone. The first topic in the meeting, on which the Board will take questions, is the spin policy. We will have a short discussion and then open up for questions on that topic. After that, maybe 15-20 minutes total -- we'll move on to an open floor for other questions. The Board has set aside the first meeting of each month as a public "town hall" style meeting. We are hoping to do an audio-based meeting at some point in the near future when resources allow. We look forward to seeing you at the meeting. Paul W. Frields Chairman, Fedora Project Board Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ Fedora-devel-announce mailing list Fedora-devel-announce(a)redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-announce

notebook / multiple visual displays - activation and control
by Development discussions related to Fedora 31 Mar '08

31 Mar '08

Hi, There are a couple of scenarios with multiple displays etc, that don't work that well in F8, in particular when the situation changes. Eg: notebook (hp compaq nx6320): - lcd panel: 1024x768 - vga out: {connected to sony crt 1400x1050), or some lcd. - svideo/composite OP: different pins are used on the connector and a converter cable can be ysed to pckup the composite video pins. If I boot up, adjust the connectors {plug different bits in} then login, for the most part that output will be activated. The following work: - lcd panel only - lcd and crt - crt only - lcd and svideo - lcd and composite , which is great. However, changing a display connection while logged in doesn't adjust the outputs that are activated. ===== Use case: Flo started her laptop when she arrived at work in the morning, and by lunch time she has 15 apps open {eg pdfs, spreadsheets, documents, program editors, web pages, email, and the presentation she has been working on}. She needs to move the laptop in the meeting room, so that she can give the presentation. While the battery keeps the unit going, and networkmanager takes care of getting the unit re-connected to the company network, she finds the image wont show on the boardroom projector via the vga output. She tries the Fn F4 {panel|panel+vga|vga} key combo. The panel screen flickers black for a micro second, but the image is not sent out the vga port. She tries the system-config-display, but isn't willing to restart X to activate the changes as suggested by the applet (because she would waste so much time to get her materials reopened). Since she has been watching DVD's on her SVideo TV at home she plugs the SVideo into the large screen TV, and again can't get an image to be displayed. Composite is no go as well. At this moment the sweat drips from her brow and the heart starts pounding as the first meeting guests arrive... ===== Or perhaps I am simply missing the fedora howto or correct application, or key stroke to either cycle through different inputs, or auto activate them as they are plugged in. {intel 945GM driver} DaveT.

How to start Tor only when network works in upstart framework?
by Yuan Yijun 31 Mar '08

31 Mar '08

Hi, I use NetworkManager to connect to wifi network (WEP encrypted). Tor daemon should be started after connection established. Everyday I have to start Tor service manually. How to use upstart to do this? BTW, when starting Tor I have to run "setenforce 0" then set to 1 when started. Is this only happening to me? Thanks! -- bbbush ^_^

cmake 2.6.0 in F-10
by Orion Poplawski 31 Mar '08

31 Mar '08

I've just built cmake 2.6.0 RC 5 in the F-10 development branch. If you run into issues building cmake projects with the new version, you can try adding: cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.4) to the top of CMakeLists.txt until your upstream has a chance to fix. This package also add a cmake-gui package with a Qt front end to CMake. -- Orion Poplawski Technical Manager 303-415-9701 x222 NWRA/CoRA Division FAX: 303-415-9702 3380 Mitchell Lane orion(a)cora.nwra.com Boulder, CO 80301 http://www.cora.nwra.com

Directory structures in the future and other things I want.
by Stephen John Smoogen 31 Mar '08

31 Mar '08

I dont know if this is a thread hijack, but I felt this was a better name than the previous threads subject. If it is.. my apologies.. My main 2 things I would like: 1) If we were to say get rid of /usr/bin, /bin, or /sbin etc.. Heck I wouldn't mind if it wasn't named something people could understand like: /SystemPrograms/ . I justwould like to see it come from a joint Linux taskforce so that it's not just yet another OS weirdness. I say this because I am currently having to rewrite my .profile to deal with our growing HP-UX, AIX, SuSE, Red Hat, Solaris, and CygWin environment. Everyone but Linux seems to stick things in weird spots or you are expected to know that you can't use /opt/bin/blah all the time because its a symlink and it breaks on this blah blah blah. 2) One thing that Jesse and Seth brought up was the one major RPM breakage that comes up every other release about why we can't do something really cool. And that is the problem with symlinks and I think directories. I would rather us do something really really radical like going to a package system that deals with that than moving items from /sbin, /usr/sbin/, /usr/myosrocks/sbin etc. 3) I think I will +1 Bills very clear fix: Just add /sbin:/usr/sbin to everyone's path. Deal with 1 and 2 after 9 is out the door, and probably shoot for it to be 11 earliest (or if we never go to 10 or 11.. whatever the next series is called :)). -- Stephen J Smoogen. -- CSIRT/Linux System Administrator How far that little candle throws his beams!

F8/9 6-16x slower than XP to boot
by Dimi Paun 31 Mar '08

31 Mar '08

Folks, I have reported in the past slow boot times. I have performed some more tests that may help people improve the situation. Hardware: 2x2.13 GHz Intel Core Duo 6400, 4GB RAM Software: Fedora 8, running Innotek's Virtual Box Virtual Hardware: 538MB RAM, 8GB HDD OS in Virtual Box: Fedora 9 Beta and XP Test was to boot the box and start Firefox to the point where I can interact with it (i.e. type in location bar). Summary: * F8 on real hardware, without BIOS time: 2:15 * F9 on virtual hardware: 7:00 * XP on virtual hardware: 0:22 For F8 boot, here is a breakdown of times: 0:00 -- Grub starts 1:25 -- login prompt 1:50 -- I can click on the Firefox icon 2:15 -- Firefox becomes usable For F9 Beta boot, being so slow, I could record more details: 0:00 -- start of virtual box 0:45 -- "Welcome to Fedora" shows 1:30 -- udev finishes (took 45'!) 1:40 -- first graphics show (rhgb) 3:20 -- X restarts (I guess rhgb ends) 4:00 -- login prompt 6:15 -- Firefox icon is clickable 7:00 -- Firefox becomes usable A few notes: * I took out all times for user interaction * I repeated the tests a few times, the results are stable * For whatever reason, Fedora 9 Beta feels very sluggish in the virtual machine (even the mouse stutters), whereas XP runs extremely well. Maybe Innotek did some Windows-only optimizations? * I measured to the point where I could interact with Firefox. However, at that point XP appeared more responsive than Fedora, even when compared to the Fedora that was running on the real hardware, with a lot more RAM available. * Even when comparing Fedora on real hardware vs XP on VM, it took longer to just start Firefox in Linux vs. the entire boot + starting of Firefox in Windows! I'd be glad to provide more information if people are interested. -- Dimi Paun <dimi(a)lattica.com> Lattica, Inc.
