Kauth problem
by Christian Jann 15 Mar '10

15 Mar '10

Hello, Could somebody get svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/KDE/kdeexamples/authorization to work with F12 or F13, I can't F12 KDE 4.4.1 (kde-unsable repo) svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/KDE/kdeexamples/authorization cd authorization/ sed -i '1i\cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.6.2 FATAL_ERROR)' CMakeLists.txt mkdir build cd build cmake .. make sudo make install ./kauth_example now when I try to save /testfile I get an SELinux alert: SELinux is preventing /lib/dbus-1/dbus-daemon-launch-helper "execute_no_trans" access on /usr/local/lib/kde4/libexec/kauth_example_helper. su - audit2allow -m local -l -i /var/log/audit/audit.log > local.te vim local.te ################ module local 1.0; require { type lib_t; type system_dbusd_t; class file execute_no_trans; } #============= system_dbusd_t ============== allow system_dbusd_t lib_t:file execute_no_trans; ################# checkmodule -M -m -o local.mod local.te semodule -i local.pp exit ./kauth_example now no SELINUX alert anymore but I get only: "Launch helper exited with unknown return code 255" when I try to save /testfile but I should get some authorization window like here: pkexec touch /testfile changing date and time in systemsettings works also I hope somebody can help me to get some more debug output or knows what the problem is I hope this behavior is only F12 special, maybe somebody with F13 can try this

KMail again
by Timothy Murphy 15 Mar '10

15 Mar '10

I am running KMail on my laptop to access a dovecot/IMAP server on my desktop. KMail works fine most of the time, except that there are a couple of "sick" messages which I can't get rid of. As soon as I click on them KMail crashes. I've been waiting for this KMail bug to be solved, but that doesn't seem to be coming very soon (I've submitted a bugzilla, as have many others). I'm wondering now if there is a simple way of dealing with the symptom, by getting rid of these bad messages. I've seen a suggestion that the problem is due to some corruption of a dovecot/KMail cache, but I'm not sure what that refers to. If any KMail/kdepim expert has a solution I should be very grateful. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland

KMail problem
by Timothy Murphy 12 Mar '10

12 Mar '10

I'm surprised the recent KMail problem has not been solved. The symptoms in my case, in brief, are 1. I am using KMail on my laptop with dovecot/IMAP to read mail collected on my desktop; 2. KMail crashes when reading, or even accessing, certain messages. These are nearly all, if not all, mailing list digests. I guess the property they have in common might be that they have a large number of references to other messages or URLs. I submitted a bugzilla, which bizarrely to me was declared a duplicate of a bugzilla over a year old <https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=186502> and which appeared to deal with another symptom, KMail crashing when it starts. There are a large number of duplicates listed, nearly all very recent. It seems to me fairly obvious that the problem has arisen recently, and is due to a recent change in KMail (or possibly dovecot). -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland

RFC: kde stability proposal (redux)
by Rex Dieter 11 Mar '10

11 Mar '10

One more call for discussion around another proposal that came out of FUDCon Toronto. Short version of this is that we'd consider slowing down updates a step, esp for the second half of a fedora release's lifetime, and to limit kde 4.x-type upgrades to at most 1 per release. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/KDE/Stability_Proposal Whatever we decide, increasing our transparency by documenting our update practices will hopefully help shape everyone''s plans and expectations. As it is, seems these vary wildly. -- Rex
