by bugzilla＠redhat.com 31 May '24

31 May '24

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1855464 Bug ID: 1855464 Summary: how to create and activate swapfiles post-install Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Status: NEW Component: docs-requests Assignee: pbokoc(a)redhat.com Reporter: bugzilla(a)colorremedies.com QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org CC: nobody(a)fedoraproject.org, sparks(a)redhat.com, zach(a)oglesby.co Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora This feature means by default there will be no swap partition by default https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/SwapOnZRAM Some folks might want/need disk based swap. swapfiles: pros: easy to setup; no reboot required; supported on btrfs, ext4, xfs; removable cons: hibernation is sketchy. it should work on ext4, might work on xfs, does not work on btrfs (it can but requires a tool to find an offset, due to the lack of a standard interface across all file systems, for automatically finding the offset) https://lore.kernel.org/linux-btrfs/20200127192548.GA683123@vader/ partition: pros: no limitations cons: takes up space, isn't resizeable; more complicated/risky to create; requires reboot. Notes: The installer's custom partitioning will continue to permit the creation of a swap partition and will configure for hibernation. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1831542 Bug ID: 1831542 Summary: Documentation of PEERNTP variable Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Status: NEW Component: system-administrator's-guide Assignee: pbokoc(a)redhat.com Reporter: mlichvar(a)redhat.com QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org CC: swadeley(a)redhat.com Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora Description of problem: The PEERNTP variable, which can be set to "no" in /etc/sysconfig/network in order to disable use of NTP servers provided by the DHCP server, is described in the "Configuring NTP Using ntpd" section, but not in the "Configuring NTP Using the chrony Suite". Both ntp and chrony follow this setting. The documentation should make it clear that NTP servers provided by DHCP are enabled by default. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.

For instance, users are told to edit the and change: ExecStart=/sbin/runuser -l USER -c "/usr/bin/vncserver %i -geometry 1280x1024" PIDFile=/home/USER/.vnc/%H%i.pid Whereas the actual file contains: ExecStart=/usr/bin/vncserver -autokill %i PIDFile=/home/<USER>/.vnc/%H%i.pid Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to the documentation page: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora/f29/system-administrators-guide… 2. Install tigervnc-server 3. Look at the configuration file /lib/systemd/system/vncserver@.service Actual results: The files differ significantly, also following the instructions in the configuration file fails to start vnc successfully, but I'll file a bug for that separately.

[Bug 1859811] New: The appdata guidance is out of date

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1859811 Bug ID: 1859811 Summary: The appdata guidance is out of date Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Status: NEW Component: packager-guide Assignee: pbokoc(a)redhat.com Reporter: t0dd(a)protonmail.com QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org CC: pkovar(a)redhat.com Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora Description of problem: If you go looking for guidance for how to package RPMs, there is really no better guide than what Fedora produces. It is therefore that much more important that Fedora keeps up with Freedesktop.org standards. The problem is that the "Packaging Guidelines for AppData Files" is out of date and wrong. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/AppData/ As of July 23, 2020 Actual results: Let's just tick off the problems (just a few, it needs a revamp) - .metainfo.xml files are now preferred and .appdata.xml is deprecated - example .xml file has wrong component type and id """ <component type="desktop"> <id>comical.desktop</id> """ ...that should be... """ <component type="desktop-application"> <id>comical</id> """ ...better yet, that should be... """ <component type="desktop-application"> <id>com.example.Comical</id> """ It's also missing the launchable tag """ <launchable type="desktop-id">com.example.Comical.desktop</lauchable> """ Expected results: See above.

[Bug 1790615] New: AppStream (formerly AppData) packaging guidelines use outdated terms and example code

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1790615 Bug ID: 1790615 Summary: AppStream (formerly AppData) packaging guidelines use outdated terms and example code Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Status: NEW Component: packager-guide Assignee: pbokoc(a)redhat.com Reporter: andrew(a)tosk.in QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org CC: pkovar(a)redhat.com Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora I'm referring to the docs at "Packaging Guidelines for AppData Files" <https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/AppData/> The AppStream project has made a number of changes since these Fedora guidelines were written, and the conflicting information confused me at first, as I looked up how to add AppStream metadata to a new package I'm working on... * In the Fedora guidelines, the second sentence ("Installed .appdata.xml files MUST follow the AppData specification page.") links to <http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/appdata/> but this URL now redirects to <https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/chap-Quickstart.html#se…> * As far as I can tell, the AppStream specification no longer uses the filename to distinguish between applications and addons, and all AppStream metadata files should now be named .metainfo.xml. Files for GUI applications are no longer named .appdata.xml. See <https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/chap-Quickstart.html#se…> * The example .appdata.xml file in the Fedora guidelines is therefore also out of date. The current AppStream spec, for example, states that the component type should be "desktop-application" instead of just "desktop". Unless I'm misunderstanding something, the Fedora guidelines here will need to be rewritten somewhat. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.
