[Bug 1008575] New: Install Guide Tweaking

Bug ID: 1008575
Summary: Install Guide Tweaking
Product: Fedora Documentation
Version: devel
Component: install-guide
Severity: low
Assignee: pbokoc(a)redhat.com

Please consider corrections for Fedora 20 install guide. The following is my
feedback for F19 Install guide.
Description of problem:
Improvement recommendation for Install Guide.
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/19/html/Installation_Guide/Ins...
Under
1.1. Typographic Conventions
The indented paragraph reads
To see the contents of the file my_next_bestselling_novel in your current
working directory, enter the cat my_next_bestselling_novel command at the shell
prompt and press Enter to execute the command.
I would replace the word "see" with view.
To view the contents of the...
For me, "see" would be the result of issuing the ls command. See the file, view
the contents.
As an aside, for French translation, "to see" translates to "regarder"
whereas view translates to "voir". Il voit le contenu.
Please correct for Fedora 20.
======
Further on the same page...
Warnings should not be ignored. Ignoring warnings will most likely cause data
loss.
My comment.
Warnings do not cause data loss. Warnings advise of a situation that if not
attended to, will most likely cause data loss.
=======
Follow page with Introduction
Introduction
This guide covers installation of Fedora, a Linux distribution built on free
and open source software.
Please change ... built on ... to built with.
My reasoning... You may be on topic, or build on a foundation, but Fedora is
built with free and open source software
=======
Another question. Would you say, "Install Fedora on a computer," or would you
say "Install Fedora onto a computer"? If the latter is more correct, this
fragment is found within the Audience section.
=======
2.1.1. How Do I Download Installation Files?
To follow a Web-based guide to downloading, visit
http://get.fedoraproject.org/. For guidance on which architecture to download,
refer to Section 2.1.2, “Which Architecture Is My Computer?”.
Would the meaning be more clear if the title started with the word "Of" as in
"Of which Architecture Is My Computer?"
(sections 2.1.2 and 2.1.3)

[Bug 1069985] New: Release notes should contain changes to kickstart options
by Red Hat Bugzilla
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1069985
Bug ID: 1069985
Summary: Release notes should contain changes to kickstart
options
Product: Fedora Documentation
Version: devel
Component: release-notes
Assignee: relnotes(a)fedoraproject.org
Reporter: edgar.hoch(a)ims.uni-stuttgart.de
QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org
CC: relnotes(a)fedoraproject.org, wb8rcr(a)arrl.net,
zach(a)oglesby.co
Description of problem:
Release notes for Fedora 20 contains nothing about the changes to kickstart
options.
It would be helpful if changes to kickstart options will be noticed in future
release notes too. Now I know that I have to check the wiki diffs of the
Anaconda/Kickstart wiki page to see the changes, but other administrators may
check only the release notes.
An example is the "--addsupport=" option to the "lang" kickstart option which
was added to Fedora 20 (I assume... - I have no information about the time of
the change), together with "%packages ... -instLangs=..." still not
implemented.
Please see also at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1051816#c11
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fedora 20 release notes.
How reproducible:
Always.
Another note:
This request is to improve the next release notes.
But I want to note that there should a place (web page, wiki page, etc.) too
where additional (late) informations can be added to release notes of already
released Fedora versions. Is such a place available?

[Bug 1158767] New: RELNOTES - Certificates signed with MD5 algorithm are not verified anymore
by Red Hat Bugzilla
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1158767
Bug ID: 1158767
Summary: RELNOTES - Certificates signed with MD5 algorithm are
not verified anymore
Product: Fedora Documentation
Version: devel
Component: release-notes
Assignee: relnotes(a)fedoraproject.org
Reporter: tmraz(a)redhat.com
QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org
CC: relnotes(a)fedoraproject.org, wb8rcr(a)arrl.net,
zach(a)oglesby.co
Blocks: 168083 (fc5-relnotes-traqr)
OpenSSL was patched to disallow verification of certificates that are signed
with MD5 algorithm. The use of MD5 hash algorithm for certificate signatures is
now considered as insecure and thus all the main crypto libraries in Fedora
were patched to reject such certificates.
Certificates signed with MD5 algorithm are not present on public https web
sites anymore but they can be still in use on private networks or used for
authentication on openvpn based VPNs such as in bug 1157260. It is highly
recommended to replace such certificates with new ones signed with SHA256 or at
least SHA1. As a temporary measure the OPENSSL_ENABLE_MD5_VERIFY environment
variable can be set to allow verification of certificates signed with MD5
algorithm.

[Bug 1060328] New: Fedora 20 Release Notes imply that rsyslog is no longer installed
by Red Hat Bugzilla
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1060328
Bug ID: 1060328
Summary: Fedora 20 Release Notes imply that rsyslog is no
longer installed
Product: Fedora Documentation
Version: devel
Component: release-notes
Assignee: relnotes(a)fedoraproject.org
Reporter: toby(a)ovod-everett.org
QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org
CC: relnotes(a)fedoraproject.org, wb8rcr(a)arrl.net,
zach(a)oglesby.co
Description of problem:
The Fedora 20 Release Notes imply that rsyslog is no longer installed (section
2.8.1) during normal installs. It appears, according to
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Talk:Changes/NoDefaultSyslog, that it got moved
from @core to @standard. However, I suspect that a lot of users will do
installs that include @standard, and as a result they will get rsyslog
installed and perhaps be confused as to why they got it when the Release Notes
imply it is no longer included. I can confirm that the
repodata/ac802acf81ab55a0eca1fe5d1222bd15b8fab45d302dfdf4e626716d374b6a64-Fedora-20-comps.xml
file on the x86_64 install DVD contains rsyslog in the @standard package group.
Also, https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Talk:Changes/NoDefaultSendmail implies
that sendmail got moved from @core to @standard, whereas it appears to me that
it actually got removed from both of them (at least I can't find it anywhere in
the comps.xml file).
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 20 x86_64
DVD.
