creating fedora local repo

by Umarzuki Mochlis

Hi, I'm trying to setup a local Fedora 14 repo (just for fun) and would like to know how many space it will take for a i386 architecture? Last time i tried creating a local Debian repo, it cost me around 20 GB+ I'd be referring to http://www.howtoforge.com/setting-up-a-local-yum-repository-fedora8 Does the stuff in that article still valid? Just change the number 8 to 14 would do? Thanks for any tip. -- Regards, Umarzuki Mochlis http://debmal.my

Restarting the monthly meetups

by Mohd Izhar Firdaus Ismail

Hi ... I'm restarting the Fedora meetups we already have a place, so meeting up to hack around shouldnt be an issue .. Format which i have in mind -> simple monthly gathering -> by default, a meetup is the time for us to gather around, raise issues which we can improve, and fix it .. -> if someone decided to do a talk or some other activities, just inform at least 1 week earlier on topic .. -> default venue is Inigo office .. but if theres activities which is targeting a larger audience , we'll need other places. -- Mohd Izhar Firdaus Bin Ismail / KageSenshi Inigo Consulting (FOSS/Plone Development, Training & Services) http://www.inigo-tech.com Fedora Malaysia Contributor & Ambassador http://blog.kagesenshi.org 92C2 B295 B40B B3DC 6866 5011 5BD2 584A 8A5D 7331

Added XMLRPC build service into armory.core

by Mohd Izhar Firdaus Ismail

you can now deploy armory.core in a remote server , and you can tell it to build using a simple XMLRPC call .. https://dev.inigo-tech.com/svn/izhar/armory.core/trunk/docs/README.txt -- Mohd Izhar Firdaus Bin Ismail / KageSenshi Inigo Consulting (FOSS/Plone Development, Training & Services) http://www.inigo-tech.com Fedora Malaysia Contributor & Ambassador http://blog.kagesenshi.org 92C2 B295 B40B B3DC 6866 5011 5BD2 584A 8A5D 7331

Introducing yum-plugin-overwrite

by Mohd Izhar Firdaus Ismail

Another aftermath of releaseparty. We needed a mechanism to easily overwrite files from upstream fedora, while not maintaining the packages ourselves. Theres no way to do that before, but its possible now ! https://dev.inigo-tech.com/svn/izhar/YumOverwrite/trunk/ Installing svn co https://dev.inigo-tech.com/svn/izhar/YumOverwrite/trunk/ YumOverwrite tar cvjf YumOverwrite.tar.bz2 YumOverwrite rpmbuild -tb YumOverwrite.tar.bz2 rpm -ivh path/to/generated/rpm Usage: create a configuration in /etc/sysconfig/overwrite.d/ with a name that ends with .cfg (eg: pidginicon.cfg) config format: [packagename] /path/to/replacement/file/or/folder=/path/to/original/file/or/folder packagename is the rpm package you want to overwrite . eg: pidgin Once you've created that, simply yum install packagename (or reinstall) .. and the plugin will automatically replace the original with your replacement p/s: this is useful if you guys wanna create an icon rpm package :D if anybody have patches or ideas, feel free to spam .. of course, code worth more than ideas :P -- Mohd Izhar Firdaus Bin Ismail / KageSenshi Inigo Consulting (FOSS/Plone Development, Training & Services) http://www.inigo-tech.com Fedora Malaysia Contributor & Ambassador http://blog.kagesenshi.org 92C2 B295 B40B B3DC 6866 5011 5BD2 584A 8A5D 7331

post-release party aftermath :P

by Mohd Izhar Firdaus Ismail

Thanks to those who came to the party :D .. Anyway, here's a summary on the small discussion we had on a potential pet project for fedoramy: codename: Armory ================= Armory is a tool for developing remix, and managing remix kickstarts Primary goals: * improve revisor (or write a replacement) * come up with a mechanism for cleanly overwriting files from upstream package, while not removing them. * a tool to manage kickstarts and kickstart inheritance Sideline goal * Create several remixes to test out/figure out issues with the code for the primary goals More Details: Ok, this will involve lots of coding for a long period of time. Considering our community doesnt have that many coders in the first place, this can be tricky to boot. So probably I'll be doing some programming classes for the first few months to the interested team, but that all will depend on how dedicated are the volunteers are. Anyway, for a start, I've spent yesterday creating an initial buildout-powered egg package for armory which have been somewhat isolated from the system python. Feature wise, it can build a livecd without issue (thanks to the livecd-creator libraries) The code is here : https://dev.inigo-tech.com/svn/izhar/armory.core/trunk/ To deploy, you'll need to be on Fedora 14, with these dependencies installed from yum: * git * subversion * python-urlgrabber * python-pycurl * rpm-python * libselinux-python * system-config-keyboard * dbus-python Then, run these commands:: svn co https://dev.inigo-tech.com/svn/izhar/armory.core/trunk/ armory.core cd armory.core python bootstrap.py ./bin/buildout -vvv That should automatically build armory and pull other python dependencies from the internet. You can create a livecd using: ./bin/armory-cli <name> <path/to/kickstart.ks> Caching is enforced by default and is stored in /var/tmp/imgcreate-cache You can create a configuration file to configure the cache location [main] tempdir = /home/user/armory-tmp cachedir = /home/user/armory-cache and run armory using: ./bin/armory-cli -c </path/to/config.cfg> <name> <path/to/kickstart.ks> And that will make use of the values in the configuration You can also configure a mirror overwrite in the configuration. eg: [jaist] fedora = http://ftp.jaist.ac.jp/pub/Linux/Fedora/releases/14/Everything/x86_64/os/ updates = http://ftp.jaist.ac.jp/pub/Linux/Fedora/updates/14/x86_64/ and you can make use of the mirror using: ./bin/armory-cli -c </path/to/config.cfg> <name> <path/to/kickstart.ks> -m jaist Also, looking at the code of revisor, probably it makes more sense to just dump revisor and start writing a new tool .. XD .. the livecd, install cd generator code seems to be external libraries anyway. -- Mohd Izhar Firdaus Bin Ismail / KageSenshi Inigo Consulting (FOSS/Plone Development, Training & Services) http://www.inigo-tech.com Fedora Malaysia Contributor & Ambassador http://blog.kagesenshi.org 92C2 B295 B40B B3DC 6866 5011 5BD2 584A 8A5D 7331
