new to list, first post
by Doug Epling
I am new to this list, and I am looking forward to hearing the discussion.
But thanks to bob and others responding to my post on fedoraforum.org
http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=227101 , I think I would
like to broach a subject. My apologies if this is already a burning issue
-- I am at work, and should not spend time browsing the archives.
Is Fedora really gaining that much ground with every bi-yearly release to
justify that pace?
After all Red Hat is not a desktop but a server, right? And Chrome could
kill current races to find a desktop to compete with Windows. So why not
concentrate on what Red Hat/Fedora does best? Let Ubuntu grind out Gnome
and KDE enhancements. How often does Solaris release desktop distros?
Thanks again for letting me be a party to the discussion.

F11 Bind Updates
by Mat Booth
Updating my F11 box today and found this in the console:
Cleanup : 32:bind-libs-9.6.1-3.fc11.x86_64
27/28
/sbin/ldconfig: relative path `1' used to build cache
Non-fatal POSTUN scriptlet failure in rpm package b
Cleanup : gvfs-gphoto2-1.2.3-7.fc11.x86_64
28/28
warning: %postun(bind-libs-32:9.6.1-3.fc11.x86_64) scriptlet failed,
exit status 1
Will this have broken anything and do I need to perform any steps to
recover from this error? It looks benign, but I'd like to make sure.

Re: Broken dependencies in Fedora 10 - 2009-07-30
by Kyle VanderBeek
I don't currently intend to push Pylons 0.9.7 to F-10, unless someone makes
an argument otherwise. The upgrade from 0.9.6.2 is not a clean one and
would possibly break existing user applications.
http://pylonshq.com/docs/en/0.9.7/upgrading/#minimal-steps-to-run-a-0-9-6...
I'm not sure why python-repoze-what-pylons got pushed to F-10 testing
without checking this core prereq. 0.9.7 is in devel and F-11 testing.
(I'm a digest reader, CC me if you want a faster response.)

python-fedora license change
by Toshio Kuratomi
python-fedora-0.3.14 is the last release that will be GPLv2.
Future releases will be LGPLv2+. This is a move to a more permissive
license so there shouldn't be any new incompatibilities.

Heads up, python-2.6.2 just built in rawhide
by James Antill
This shouldn't be a rebuild the world kind of update, but 2.6.2 has
just built for rawhide and as usual we had to tweak our
patches to get it to build etc. ... so there's some room for weirdness,
so if you see anything please BZ etc.
However I built it locally, in mock, for Fedora 11 and yum still works
as did gedit python plugins.
For the impatient the koji build was:

gio does not report any removable media
