Orphan Hoard (a memory allocator) again in Fedora
by Richard W.M. Jones 05 Jul '18

05 Jul '18

Hoard, a memory allocator, fails to build in Fedora for a long time. I posted about this over a year ago: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org… at which time the upstream owner claimed they would become a packager and fix it. However that didn't happen, so I'm really going to orphan it now, and recommend that it is retired asap.

F29 System Wide Change: Modules for Everyone
by Jan Kurik 05 Jul '18

05 Jul '18

= Proposed System Wide Change: Modules for Everyone = https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/ModulesForEveryone Owner(s): * Stephen Gallagher <sgallagh at fedoraproject dot org> * Langdon White <langdon at fedoraproject dot org> All Fedora installations will have modular repositories enabled by default, previously available, by default, only to Server Edition. == Detailed description == In Fedora 28, the Server Edition debuted new modular functionality, allowing end-users access to alternative versions of popular software. Due to technical limitations with package-management software, it was not available for non-Server deployments of Fedora. Beginning with Fedora 29, all installations of Fedora will have modules available for installation and update. This will be done by merging the `fedora-repos-modular` sub-package back into the `fedora-repos` package. == Scope == * Proposal owners: The proposal owners need to coordinate the work of the DNF team and release-engineering to make sure that the repo subpackage merge only happens once the libdnf enhancements are stable. We will also need to prepare and run a Fedora Test Day with the QA team. * Other developers: The DNF team is already committed to providing the necessary changes for libdnf in Fedora 29. * Release engineering: #7561 [https://pagure.io/releng/issue/7561] ** List of deliverables: All Fedora installations * Policies and guidelines: No alterations to packaging guidelines are required specifically for this change * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) -- Jan Kuřík JBoss EAP Program Manager Red Hat Czech s.r.o., Purkynova 99/71, 612 45 Brno, Czech Republic

Intent to orphan: perl-Mail-DKIM and python-beaker
by Miro Hrončok 05 Jul '18

05 Jul '18

Anybody who wants perl-Mail-DKIM (needed by amavisd-new, spamassassin) before I orphan it? Anybody who wants python-beaker (needed by TurboGears2, python-pylons, previously also python-mako) before I orphan it? This one FTBFS on Python 3.7. Let me know. I'll orphan the packages in a week. -- Miro Hrončok -- Phone: +420777974800 IRC: mhroncok

koji build error
by Federico Bruni 04 Jul '18

04 Jul '18

Hello I'm trying to build a package in koji for the first time. You can see my (failed) attempt here: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=27996807 I run `fedpkg build` from the directory containing this git repository: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/extractpdfmark I don't understand a couple of things in build.log: 1. Why it's using --target noarch? 2. It seems it cannot find and download the sources, but it should work. The real link is: https://github.com/trueroad/extractpdfmark/releases/download/v1.0.2/extract… Thanks in advance Federico

[F29 only] Dropping requirements for initscripts package from specfiles
by David Kaspar [Dee'Kej] 04 Jul '18

04 Jul '18

Hello people, I'm working on making Fedora being able to function completely without the 'initscripts' package (hopefully) some day in the future. I have done some cleanup in initscripts recently, and I would like to ask maintainers of packages listed below to check if their package(s) still really need the initscripts package to function properly (for any reason). It seems that for many packages the requirement of initscripts is just a leftover from past. If the package does not need the initscripts any longer, please remove the requirement in Rawhide (F29) and forward. (Do not backport this change into F28 or F27, it would break things.) NOTE: In case you are depending on initscripts because of networking scripts (ifup/ifdown, etc.), then you will need to update your specfile to depend directly on new package 'network-scripts' (instead of 'initscripts'). I've opened bug reports for each of the packages listed here, and created a tracking BZ for it: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1592330 List of packages still depending on initscripts (some of them were already fixed): 3proxy barry boomaga-selinux Canna clamsmtp conmux crossfire-selinux cyphesis device-mapper-multipath dpm-xrootd ebnetd-common exim exim-clamav foghorn freeipa-client glpi groonga-munin-plugins groonga-server-gqtp iipsrv isdn4k-utils kbd libstoragemgmt mailman-3 nightview-server node ntop numad omniORB openslp-server os-net-config pcp pcsc-cyberjack pgbouncer plymouth ppp pure-ftpd-selinux ratbox-services sagator-core spacewalk-config spamassassin spawn-fcgi sslogger systemtap-initscript systemtap-server tigervnc-server-minimal torque-mom torque-scheduler torque-server trafficserver varnish vdsm vhostmd vpnc vte vte291 vte3 wine-desktop xboxdrv Thank you, and best regards! :) David Kaspar [Dee'Kej] *Associate Software Engineer* *Brno, Czech Republic* RED HAT | TRIED.

glibc license updates
by Florian Weimer 04 Jul '18

04 Jul '18

I updated the License tag in the RPM file to match reality more closely: # In general, GPLv2+ is used by programs, LGPLv2+ is used for # libraries. # # LGPLv2+ with exceptions is used for things that are linked directly # into dynamically linked programs and shared libraries (e.g. crt # files, lib*_nonshared.a). Historically, this exception also applies # to parts of libio. # # GPLv2+ with exceptions is used for parts of the Arm unwinder. # # GFDL is used for the documentation. # # Some other licenses are used in various places (BSD, Inner-Net, # ISC, Public Domain). # # HSRL and FSFAP are only used in test cases, which currently do not # ship in binary RPMs, so they are not listed here. MIT is used for # scripts/install-sh, which does not ship, either. # # GPLv3+ is used by manual/texinfo.tex, which we do not use. # # LGPLv3+ is used by some Hurd code, which we do not build. # # LGPLv2 is used in one place (time/timespec_get.c, by mistake), but # it is not actually compiled, so it does not matter for libraries. License: LGPLv2+ and LGPLv2+ with exceptions and GPLv2+ and GPLv2+ with exceptions and BSD and Inner-Net and ISC and Public Domain and GFDL This a substantial change from what we had documented before, but the actual licensing conditions themselves are unchanged. Thanks, Florian
