startx unsets DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS, which breaks user D-Bus session
by Alexey Rochev 19 Aug '19

19 Aug '19

Hello, I would like to draw some attention to this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1622259. Description: startx unsets DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS, which result in launching another D-Bus session which breaks communicating with user systemd services (and any D-Bus services started before launching X) from X session via D-Bus, since they use two different D-Bus daemons. I would really like this bug to be fixed. Thanks, Alexey Rochev

glibc-arm-linux-gnu help
by Tom Callaway 15 Jun '19

15 Jun '19

A few years ago, I packaged up glibc-arm-linux-gnu, so that Fedora could have a packaged arm cross-toolchain that was useful (with glibc, it cannot build anything in userspace). It worked for a while, but lately, all builds have been failing with this error: /usr/bin/arm-linux-gnu-ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabi/8/libgcc_eh.a when searching for -lgcc_eh I've looked at it and poked it quite a bit locally, but I can't seem to get around that. I could really use some help to get this building again, ideally, updated to 2.28. All my work is committed to git, no help will be refused. Thanks in advance, ~tom

Octave 4.4 update coming soon to rawhide
by Orion Poplawski 13 Jun '19

13 Jun '19

I've planning on building octave 4.4 soon (next day or two) in rawhide. I've been building dependent packages here: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/g/scitech/octave4.4/packages/ Anyone in the scitech group can submit builds there if needed. Notes on needed changes to packages are here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bBEe4Ng3TBUh-EWOQTZt_SvbBYoKWgrC-qH… I'm going to start working on PRs for the various changes for maintainers to review. Of note: - swig requires updating to a git snapshot to get octave 4.4 support - pfstools needs an update to 2.1.0 - NLopt updated to 2.5.0 - switches to using cmake Orion -- Orion Poplawski Manager of NWRA Technical Systems 720-772-5637 NWRA, Boulder/CoRA Office FAX: 303-415-9702 3380 Mitchell Lane orion(a)nwra.com Boulder, CO 80301 https://www.nwra.com/

The following packages are orphaned and will be retired when they are orphaned for six weeks, unless someone adopts them. If you know for sure that the package should be retired, please do so now with a proper reason: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_remove_a_package_at_end_of_life Note: If you received this mail directly you (co)maintain one of the affected packages or a package that depends on one. Please adopt the affected package or retire your depending package to avoid broken dependencies, otherwise your package will be retired when the affected package gets retired. Unretire packages at https://pagure.io/releng/issues Full breakdown of dependent packages is at: https://churchyard.fedorapeople.org/orphans.txt Note: This procedure is now restarted and I will start retiring packages that have been orphaned for 6+ weeks in 3 weeks from now, will be sending e-mails like this each week.

[Late] F30 System-Wide Change proposal: GCC9
by Ben Cotton 14 May '19

14 May '19

[This proposal was submitted after the deadline. I am announcing it for community discussion and will leave the decision on whether or not to grant an exception to FESCo] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/GCC9 == Summary == Switch GCC in Fedora 30 to 9.x.y, rebuild all packages with it, or optionally rebuild just some packages with it and rebuild all packages only in Fedora 31. == Owner == * Name: [[User:jakub| Jakub Jelínek]] * Email: jakub(a)redhat.com == Detailed Description == GCC 9 is currently in stage4 since January 7th, in prerelease state with only regression bugfixes and documentation fixes allowed. The release will happen probably in the middle of April. rpms have been built are since today in rawhide. == Benefit to Fedora == See http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-9/changes.html for the list of changes. == Scope == All packages should be rebuilt with the new gcc once it hits f30, or, if there is not enough time for that, just all packages built after the new gcc hits the buildroots. * Proposal owners: Build gcc in f30, rebuild packages that have direct dependencies on exact gcc version (libtool, annobin, gcc-python-plugin). * Other developers: First few days/weeks just voluntary rebuilds using the new system gcc, if things fail, look at http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-9/porting_to.html and fix bugs in packages or, if there is a gcc bug or suspected gcc bug, analyze and report. * Release engineering: . Mass rebuild requested for F30. * Policies and guidelines: No policies need to be changed == Upgrade/compatibility impact == No impact == How To Test == GCC has its own testsuite, which is run during the package build, plus many other packages with automated tests also help to test the new gcc. == User Experience == Users will be able to see compiled code improvements and use the newly added features. Developers will notice a newer compiler, and might need to adjust their codebases acording to http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-9/porting_to.html, or, if they detect a GCC bug, report it. == Dependencies == libtool, annobin, gcc-python-plugin depend on exact gcc version, those need to be rebuilt. == Contingency Plan == If bugs are discovered, I'd appreciate help from the package owners in preparing self-contained testcases to speed up analysis and fixing the bugs. Don't have time to debug issues in 12000+ packages, especially when in many cases it could be caused by undefined code in the packages etc. I don't expect we'll have to fall back to the older gcc, we've never had to do it in the past, but worst case we can mass rebuild everything with older gcc again. Jeff Law has performed test mass rebuild on x86_64. * Contingency mechanism: Revert to older gcc, mass rebuild everything again * Contingency deadline: Before release * Blocks release? Yes * Blocks product? No == Documentation == http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-9/ == Release Notes == Fedora 30 comes with GCC 9.1 as primary compiler, see http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-9/changes.html for user visible changes in it. -- Ben Cotton Fedora Program Manager TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis

Attention Gmail users, please turn off HTML mail
by Dominik 'Rathann' Mierzejewski 15 Apr '19

15 Apr '19

Dear developers, sorry for a slightly off-topic post, but I've noticed that a significant number of posters is sending HTML e-mail to this list (not to mention top-replying), which generates unnecessary network traffic. Some people pay for every bit downloaded, so they're paying for the same information twice, because the e-mails are sent with multipart/alternative format, which contains BOTH text/plain and text/html. One thing I noticed those senders have in common is that they use Gmail. So, a plea to Gmail users: please stop sending HTML e-mail to Fedora mailing lists. Regards, Dominik (who still reads e-mail in text mode in a terminal) -- Fedora https://getfedora.org | RPMFusion http://rpmfusion.org There should be a science of discontent. People need hard times and oppression to develop psychic muscles. -- from "Collected Sayings of Muad'Dib" by the Princess Irulan

[HEADS UP] Eclipse dropping 32-bit arches
by Mat Booth 13 Apr '19

13 Apr '19

The message about Ceph [1] reminded me that we should probably make the same notification for Eclipse Platform. The Eclipse Platform upstream is in the process of dropping all support for 32bit arches. The current state is that upstream are no longer building for 32bit arches upstream for 4.10 (release 2018-12) onwards. I expect them to start actively removing 32bit specific code in future releases. You can read more about the decision on the upstream bug [2] In Fedora, Eclipse 4.10 which I am building for Rawhide and F29 right now, still builds for 32bit arches, but this will not last long. I expect in a future release (4.11 or later) Eclipse will no longer build on x86/arm and at that time I will no longer be able to support these architectures in Fedora -- I expect to exclude those arches from Fedora builds. If you depend on the ECJ batch compiler, this will continue to be available on all arches as a noarch package. (It is packaged as a discrete SRPM and has no build or runtime dependency on the Eclipse Platform itself.) Regards, Mat [1] https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org… [2] https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=526620

OpenVPN 3 Linux client - v3 beta release
by David Sommerseth 08 Apr '19

08 Apr '19

Hi, As some of you know, I've been involved with the OpenVPN packages for some time as well as being an upstream OpenVPN developer and maintainer. Now we have released the third beta release of OpenVPN 3 Linux. This new client shares the same code base the OpenVPN Connect (proprietary) clients uses as well as the OpenVPN for Android when switching to use the OpenVPN 3 backend. The OpenVPN 3 code base is a rewrite in C++ and makes use of the more modern features of C++11. The Linux version is also very different from the OpenVPN 2.x generation, as it is now D-Bus based. We have done this to allow easier integration with other users and front-ends on Linux as well as having a better privilege separation. Once all the backend pieces of OpenVPN 3 Linux has settled non of them runs with more privileges than absolutely needed and there are several services running which is responsible for only a subset of the features. This is probably the least privileged OpenVPN implementation available today. On top of that, we have also tried to make DNS configuration work out-of-the-box as well (but here we need much more work to be really complete). Part of this project we're also trying to get some kind of equivalent of the Android VPN API in place on Linux. We have our own D-Bus service which provides the needed functionality and can hopefully work as a stepping stone towards something which can also be used outside OpenVPN alone too. The current implementation should already provide all the needed features to create and configure TUN devices (including IP addresses, routing and DNS) for unprivileged users. I'm announcing this here now as we also have Fedora Copr builds available for EPEL-7, Fedora 28, Fedora 29 and Rawhide. In not too far future I would like to get the process running to get the openvpn3 package into the mainline Fedora repositories as well. <https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/dsommers/openvpn3/> Our main source repositories can be found here: <https://gitlab.com/openvpn/openvpn3-linux> <https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn3-linux> We would be very much interested to get more users to try this out and to move this project forward. The current codebase is in a reasonably good shape. It is a bit rough around the edges when it comes to the DNS configuration and /etc/resolv.conf handling, but otherwise it is fairly production ready. This project aims to have good and reasonable documentation. I'm not saying we're perfect in this regards, and we're open to improve here too. All D-Bus services should be fairly well documented and we should have man pages for most of the binaries we provide. * D-Bus details <https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn3-linux/tree/master/docs/dbus> * man pages: <https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn3-linux/tree/master/docs/man/> Feel free to reach out if you have some questions or good ideas. -- kind regards, David Sommerseth OpenVPN Inc
