Headsup: dbus 1.12.10-1.fc29 is missing systemd dbus.service file,
breaking almost everything
by Hans de Goede
Hi All,
Just a quick headsup for users following Fedora 29, the
dbus 1.12.10-1.fc29 build is missing the systemd dbus.service
file, breaking almost everything.
Instead it contains a dbus-daemon.service file, but the
dbus.socket file expects a matching dbus.service, not
dbus-daemon.service.
So either hold of on applying updates until this is fixed
or exclude dbus.
Regards,
Hans

Ditch RPM in favor of DPKG
by Dridi Boukelmoune
Greetings packagers,
I know how important RPM is to the Fedora Project, but it breaks
everything downstream and we'd be better off using DPKG as we should
have from day one.
I'm calling this initiative fedpkg: Fedora Embraces DPKG.
A bit of background here: I build both RPMs and DEBs for $DAYJOB and
until recently my workflow was quite painful because I needed extra steps
between git checkout and git push that involves a VM, because what we
ship as apt is in reality apt-rpm.
It finally got enough on my nerves to locally build the things I needed and
after a month I have already amortized my efforts with the time I save not
having to deal with needless extra hoops.
In order to successfully build debs on Fedora I needed 4 packages that
I'm now submitting for review:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=gnu-config
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=strip-nondeterminism
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=sbuild
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=apt
I need more than reviews here.
Three of those packages are heavy on Perl code, and I'm not a Perl
Monk. I tried to CC perl-sig as per the guidelines [1] (also tried with
the mailing list address) but bugzilla replied kindly:
CC: perl-sig did not match anything
Apt is a mix of C, Perl and C++ code, so I would be reassured if I
could have a C++ co-maintainer too. I'm only a C developer so if
something goes wrong outside of the C realm that would be helpful.
Two of those packages should be runtime dependencies of debhelper.
The current apt package should be renamed to apt-rpm, I will look up
the procedure for that to happen. I understand that when someone sees
they should run "apt-get install foo" somewhere on the web it's
helpful for non-savvy users that this JustWorks(tm) [2], but apt-rpm is
dead upstream and it shouldn't be advertised as apt.
I hope I CC'd everyone that should get this heads up, and hope to find
help for the reviews and co-maintainership. The packaging does nothing
fancy, there are quirks here and there but overall it was rather easy
to put together. And of course I would be happy to help with reviews
too in exchange.
And thanks again to the mock developers, its design is so much better
than either sbuild or pdebuild that I barely have pain points left when it
comes to RPM packaging.
Thanks,
Dridi

Fedora 33 Self-Contained Change proposal: Drop mod_php
by Ben Cotton
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/drop_mod_php
== Summary ==
mod_php (apache2handler) is an optional httpd module to execute PHP
scripts, not used.
== Owner ==
* Name: [[User:Remi| Remi Collet]]
* Email: remi at fedoraproject dot org
== Detailed Description ==
By default php-fpm is used for a few versions. mod_php is not
supported for threaded modules. mod_php usage also increases security
risk, sharing the same process than httpd.
Drop mod_php from php build. This will only affect user of httpd in
"prefork" mode, which will also use php-fpm.
php-fpm is already used but most users of httpd and nginx without any issue.
The "php" package will be kept as a metapackage, installing (weak
dependencies) most commonly used extension, thus reducing the
difference between "yum install php" (flat repository) and "yum module
install php" (modular repository).
== Benefit to Fedora ==
Only provide the modern way to execute PHP in a web server.
== Scope ==
PHP rebuild (mod_php build is already conditional)
* Other developers: N/A (not a System Wide Change)
* Release engineering: N/A
* Policies and guidelines: N/A (not a System Wide Change)
* Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change)
== Upgrade/compatibility impact ==
N/A (not a System Wide Change)
== How To Test ==
* install and play with your web applications
== User Experience ==
No change.
== Dependencies ==
None (dependency on "php" is already forbidden by Guidelines)
== Contingency Plan ==
* revert
* Contingency deadline: N/A (not a System Wide Change)
* Blocks release? N/A (not a System Wide Change), Yes/No
* Blocks product? product

Autoclosure of review requests?
by Ben Cotton
In the weekly Fedora program update that I publish on
communityblog.fedoraproject.org, I have started to include a count of the
open package review requests. As of this moment, there are ~1300 open
review requests. Some of these were opened in 2006.
The usual Bugzilla housekeeping (branching, EOL closure, etc) explicitly
excludes review request bugs. Having a large number of open, ancient review
requests isn't exactly harmful, but it's not very helpful either.
Before I make a proposal to FPC, I thought I'd open a conversation here.
What does a reasonable cleanup of review requests look like?
My initial thought is to close all review requests that were opened >2
years ago, to be performed at the EOL closure for each release.

Default editor for LXQt spin
by Raphael Groner
Hi,
writing to general devel list intentionally. No idea if all members of lxqt-sig list can read here, too and especially @zsun.
Is there any sense why @lxqt-sig is member of packaging for featherpad? LXQt SIG decided to have enki in the spin as the default editor. Featherpad is not part of LXQt upstream.
@lupinix Could you remove lxqt-sig from the members in pagure?

Fedora 33 Self-Contained Change proposal: No more automagic Python
bytecompilation phase 3
by Ben Cotton
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/No_more_automagic_Python_bytecompi...
== Summary ==
See [[Changes/No_more_automagic_Python_bytecompilation]] and
[[Changes/No_more_automagic_Python_bytecompilation_phase_2]]. Now,
<code>%global _python_bytecompile_extra 1</code> won't be allowed
anymore and raises an error with a link to this change.
== Owner ==
* Name: [[User:lbalhar| Lumír Balhar]]
* Email: lbalhar(a)redhat.com
== Detailed Description ==
See the [[Changes/No_more_automagic_Python_bytecompilation#Detailed_Description|Detailed
Description of the previous Change Proposal]] and the
[[Changes/No_more_automagic_Python_bytecompilation#Detailed_Description|Detailed
Description of its phase 2]].
Currently, Fedora rawhide contains ~130 packages with `%global
_python_bytecompile_extra 1` in their specfiles but surprisingly only
42 of them actually ship any .pyc files outside the standard location
<code>/usr/lib(64)?/python[0-9]\.[0-9]+</code>. That might be caused
by either of the following:
* there is nothing to byte-compile — the statement is a leftover to be removed
* The automagic bytecompilation uses <code>/usr/bin/python</code> by
default (for historical reasons) but <code>/usr/bin/python</code> is
not present in the buildroot by default.
Our plan is to finish the announced removal of this automagic Python
bytecompilation, remove it from packages where it's not necessary and
fix it with <code>%py_byte_compile</code> for packages where it's
needed.
The [https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Python_Appendix...
documentation] already contains the following paragraph:
If you have *.py files outside of the /usr/lib(64)?/pythonX.Y/
directories and you require those files to be byte compiled (e.g. it’s
an importable Python module) you MUST compile them explicitly using
the %py_byte_compile macro. Note that not all Python files are
importable Python modules; when in doubt, grep the sources for the
appropriate import statement.
so no changes have to be made there.

== Benefit to Fedora ==
More explicit specfiles when it comes to Python byte compilation. This
change also supports the dropping of unversioned
<code>%{__python}</code> macro.
== Scope ==
* Proposal owners: Change the brp-python-bytecompile script and macros
in redhat-rpm-config package, help with transforming the packages. See
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/redhat-rpm-config/pull-request/87
* Other developers: Maintainers of the mentioned python packages will
have to change their packages to use explicit
<code>%py_byte_compile</code>
* Release engineering: No Release engineering work is needed for this change
* Policies and guidelines: nothing to be changed
* Trademark approval: not needed
== Upgrade/compatibility impact ==
None expected.
== How To Test ==
Build a package with <code>%global _python_bytecompile_extra 1</code>.
The build should fail with an actionable error message.
== User Experience ==
The users of this change are packagers. The new behavior should make
byte-compilation more obvious, explicit, and discoverable.
Users of Fedora should not feel this (except if this change uncovers a
packaging bug).
== Contingency Plan ==
* Contingency mechanism: revert the changes in redhat-rpm-config
* Contingency deadline: none (not a System Wide Change)
* Blocks release? no (not a System Wide Change)
* Blocks product? no
== Documentation ==
The guidelines already contain up-to-date documentation.
== Release Notes ==
This change does not deserve Release Notes, it is not user-facing.

Many packages unnecessarily link to libpython
by Charalampos Stratakis
Hello everyone,
As of Python 3.8, python C extensions modules should not link to libpython, unless they embed the interpreter in their code. Relevant upstream PR: https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/12946
If your package links to libpython without requiring it, it won't be possible to use the python3-debug binary with your python C extension, unless you recompile the extension against it.
On Fedora Rawhide, there are at this point 144 packages linking to libpython, many of those possibly without any need for it.
If your package links to libpython but it does not embed the interpreter, I would like to ask you to unlink it. Usually the fix needs to be done at the package's build system.
If you are not sure if your package links to libpython, a way to figure this out is to inspect the code for the Py_Initialize and the Py_Finalize calls [0]. If the code includes those calls, no action is required from your side. If it does not, linking to libpython is not required.
I might mass file bugzillas at a later date, but I wanted to provide you the heads up before that.

RFC: Automatically generated BuildRequires for maven-based Java projects
by Fabio Valentini
Good $LOCAL_TIME_OF_DAY,
I've been working on experimental support for automatically generating
BuildRequires for maven-based Java projects, and it's now available
for testing in rawhide (and in fedora 32, for local testing).
There's no "macro support" for this yet, because it's still
work-in-progress, though when it proves useful support for it might
eventually get merged into the Java packaging macros directly.
The good new is: it should basically "just work" if your package isn't
doing anything weird, but this is Java we're talking about, so there's
at least three limitations I can think of right now (the bad news):
1. no built-in blacklist for irrelevant plugins yet (e.g. maven-release-plugin)
2. no support for different profiles yet
3. no support for plugins that add additional dependencies in their
configuration
There are workarounds for the first two limitations:
1. It's pretty easy to just disable those plugins manually in %prep
with "%pom_remove_plugin :maven-foo-plugin".
2. If you know ahead of time which submodules will get activated (e.g.
based on a previous package build), just specify those modules on the
mvn-genbr command line instead of letting mvn-genbr fail to find them.
3. just continue to specify those non-discoverable dependencies manually
Usage in .spec files should be pretty simple, and similar to how other
tools handle generated BuildRequires:
- replace all java / "mvn(foo:bar)" dependencies with "BuildRequires:
mvn-genbr",
- but keep "BuildRequires: maven-local" (this is not automatically generated).
- keep your "pom.xml" modifications in %prep, as usual (e.g. removing
unnecessary maven plugins, changing dependencies, modifying XML with
XPath queries)
- add the following section to your .spec after %prep:
%generate_buildrequires
mvn-genbr -t .
If you're not running the test suite (%mvn_build -f), then drop the -t
/ --with-tests flag. If the root directory of the maven project is not
the toplevel directory, specify the name of the root directory /
directories instead of "." (mvn-genbr accepts multiple arguments for
this purpose. use "mvn-genbr --help" for current list of command line
options).
If you want to check out what automatic dependencies mvn-genbr will
generate for your package, you can try it without kicking off a
package build by dnf-installing "mvn-genbr" (available fedora 32+),
and running it with the same arguments as in your .spec file in the
source directory that's generated and processed by "fedpkg prep".
Comparisons between the generated dependency lists and those that were
curated "manually" would be of interest, especially for bug reports :)
Since this is still work-in-progress (though it works for a few simple
packages I tried it with), please feel free to report your
experiences, and - more importantly - open issues when the tool either
crashes (it shouldn't, since the POM parser successfully parsed all
non-broken maven project files from all fedora packages), or when it
generates too many (not that problematic) or too few (not so good)
dependencies.
The code for the POM parser and mvn-genbr lives in this project on pagure:

Go forth and break my code!
