ISV guide to the Summit
by Greg DeKoenigsberg 06 Jun '08

06 Jun '08

To all of our partner friends: We've received a lot of inquiries from our partners about packaging their software in RPM format for use with Fedora. With good reasons: * Millions of Fedora users can install any RPM in the Fedora universe with one simple command. * RPM is the cornerstone of Linux systems management applications, allowing sysadmins to manage a complete list of all software on their systems, through many different tools. * RPM is also the basis of much of the appliance work that Red Hat is advancing. Putting your software into RPM format makes it much simpler to build Live CDs, network install images, or even virtual appliances around your software solution. Any open source software provider can package their work as an RPM for Fedora. Getting software into Fedora is not as easy as it could be, but it's not that difficult, either -- and we are committed to working with our partners to make it as painless as possible. At the Red Hat Summit / Fedora User and Developer conference, developers have unprecedented access to the knowledge of the Red Hat and Fedora communities. For those who are interested specifically in learning how to make the best use of RPM and Fedora, we would like to recommend the following sessions: * Topic: Fedora images and live CDs. Presenter: Jeremy Katz Time: Wednesday 6/18, 11:30am - 12:30pm Location: Red Hat Summit Session Hall * Topic: How to make good RPM packages Presenter: Tom Callaway Time: Wednesday 6/18, 1:30pm - 2:30pm Location: Red Hat Summit Session Hall * Topic: Building Appliances with the Red Hat Appliance OS Presenter: Bryan Kearney Time: Wednesday 6/18, 2:45pm - 3:45pm Location: Red Hat Summit Session Hall * Topic: Fedora packages for RHEL Presenter: Karsten Wade Time: Thursday 6/19, 2:45pm - 3:45pm Location: Red Hat Summit Session Hall * Topic: ISV Packaging Hackfest Presenter: Various Time: Thursday 6/19, 10am - 4pm Location: Fedora Hackfest Area * Topic: Java Packaging Hackfest Presenter: Various Time: Friday 6/20, 10am - 4pm Location: Fedora Hackfest Area Also, on Saturday 6/21, we will be holding the Fedora Users and Developers Conference at Boston University, just minutes from the Hynes Convention Center. FUDCons are the lifeblood of the Fedora community; every FUDCon draws the best and the brightest of the Fedora community from all over the world. We urge Summit participants who are interested in learning more about Fedora to attend this exceptional conference. Learn more about FUDCon at: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon/FUDConF10 If you have any questions, please contact Greg DeKoenigsberg <gdk(a)redhat.com>, Paul Frields <pfrields(a)redhat.com> or Max Spevack <mspevack(a)redhat.com> for more information. We look forward to seeing you at the Summit, and at FUDCon. --g

Groovy in Rawhide?
by Richard Körber 05 Jun '08

05 Jun '08

Hello! I have just joined this list too. I am both a big friend of Java and Fedora, and I am happy that I can enjoy both now, thanks to OpenJDK. :-) Now that OpenJDK is installed by default in Fedora 9, I think it would be nice to have Groovy[1] available as well. It would be a nice Java counterpart to Python, Ruby and Perl. Are there any plans to add Groovy to Rawhide? There is a Fedora RPM package available on the Groovy homepage already, which on a first sight seems to integrate nicely with Fedora 9. I'd prefer a simple yum install groovy though. :) [1] http://groovy.codehaus.org/ -- Richard

Introduction to the List from OpenNMS
by Tarus Balog 05 Jun '08

Gang: Hello there. I am one of the maintainers for OpenNMS, a free and open, enterprise-grade network management system written in Java. With the advent of OpenJDK we are hoping to get involved in the packaging of Java applications such as our own. I had lunch with gdk and Michael DeHaan today and it was suggested that this would be the best list for this. http://blogs.opennms.org/?p=222 So I just wanted to say "howdy". -T _______________________________________________________________________ Tarus Balog, OpenNMS Maintainer Main: +1 919 533 0160 The OpenNMS Group, Inc.

Re: Resend5: Cannot proceed with JavaHelp

Jaroslav Tulach wrote: Hi Jarda, it seems that you got tripped up by different mail addresses: the one you're subscribed on this list according to the lists's maintainer Gary Benson is your netbeans.org address, but the one you've sent this mail from is your sun.com address, so it didn't show up on the list or in the archives. :/ (I can recommend using IRC for this kind of communication problems, as I was able to quickly find overholt, mjw and gbenson on #fedora-java, who helped track this one down, and they were very helpful.) As far as the problem you describe goes, you're right, there are no instructions to create .ssh/id_dsa on the 'Join' page. If you scroll down to the 'Get a Fedora account part', you'll see a link in the first line to the descrption of the Fedora Account System <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/AccountSystem>. Clicking on it will take you to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/AccountSystem which under section 1.4.3 lists What is an SSH key, and why do I need one? SSH <http://openssh.org/> , short for Secure SHell, allows cryptographically authenticated and encrypted connections between computers. SSH is used to tunnel CVS connections for the Fedora Project. Anytime you use CVS with the Fedora Project, the transaction will be performed through an SSH connection. Your SSH key will identify you to the CVS servers, and host keys on the CVS servers will allow your computer to verify the remote server, too. An SSH key is only needed if you are planning on contributing source code, working on Fedora Project website pages or using fedorapeople.org. See Cryptography <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Cryptography> and clicking on the cryptography link will take you to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Cryptography , which in turn has a brief introduction to creating ssh keys at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Cryptography#Creating_SSH_Keys when it comes to uploading the freshly created ssh key to your fedora account, I hope the way pointed out by david walluck at https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-java-list/2008-May/msg00026.ht… still works. If you run into further trouble, jump on IRC on #fedora-java on Freenode, and we should be able to help you, and others at the NetBeans team get their code packaged for Fedora. mjw (Mark Wielaard) suggested that it's best to work with the sponsor, in your case that's fitzsim (Tom Fitzsimmons).

Java issue on Fedora-9
by Devrim GÜNDÜZ 02 Jun '08

02 Jun '08

I am trying to rebuild postgresql-jdbc on Fedora-9. Per http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=35794 , package is successfully built already. However, I'm getting an error: ============================================================================ + sh update-translations.sh /usr/bin/ant: line 326: /usr/lib/jvm/java/bin/java: cannot execute binary file /usr/bin/ant: line 326: /usr/lib/jvm/java/bin/java: Success ......................... done. ...................... done. ............................ done. ................... done. ...................... done. ................................ done. ....................... done. .................. done. ................... done. ................... done. .................. done. .................. done. .................. done. + ant /usr/bin/ant: line 326: /usr/lib/jvm/java/bin/java: cannot execute binary file /usr/bin/ant: line 326: /usr/lib/jvm/java/bin/java: Success error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.520 (%build) ============================================================================ I'm getting the same error with PostGIS package. This is a stock Fedora-9 installation on x86_64 . Can someone please give an idea regarding this? Thanks.
