EMEA Media, All desktop spins on one disc, All full install DVDs on one disc
by Sascha Thomas Spreitzer
Dear freedorians,
we were researching the technical possibility of putting more then one
live cd on one disc.
The proof of concept succeded with these F13 compilations:
http://sspreitzer.fedorapeople.org/torrents/
Zoltan Hoppar and the media company in Munich came up with the idea to
use dual layered DVD discs, which will allow us to store arround 8.5
GB of data.
This is where we are a looking now at the following proposed future
Fedora compilations:
- All desktop spins and related archs on one disc. ( Gnome, KDE, LXDE,
XFCE, Moblin - i686, x86_64 - arround 7GB ) PoC succeded. Tested and
working.
- All installer data and related arch on one disc. ( Full Fedora -
i686, x86_64 - arround 6.5GB ) PoC needed! Blocked due to anaconda
installer options and data paths/devices ( stage2 / repo ).
I requested a pricing quote from the media company in Munich for the
upper scenario,
the result is ~1,000.00 EUR cost savings while producing the same
amount of media ( 5,000 pcs ).
http://sspreitzer.fedorapeople.org/mediaquotes/F14/quote_121010_DE.pdf
(We could even produce 10,000 pcs while staying in the budget for EMEA.)
My questions are:
- Can we solve the blocker on anaconda for the installer compilation?
- Should we start this approach by F14?
- By looking at F15, could we strip a "choose
live-desktop/arch/install" all-in-one dual layer disc?
Thoughts on hardware compatability:
By comment of the media company in Munich: Dual layer DVDs are not
compatible to all dvd players. But to most of them.
( Every DVD player who can play a movie DVD is likely compatible. )
In my humble opinion this is not a blocker for Fedora, which is about
being first and rapid releasing near to cutting edge.

glib.so.5 to libpoppler-glib.so.6. Packages which depend on
libpoppler.so.* and libpoppler-glib.so.* are (according to repoquery):
OpenSceneGraph-libs, calibre, epdfview, evince-libs, gambas2-gb-pdf, gimp,
gloobus-preview, gnome-commander, inkscape, inkscape-view, koffice-karbon,
libextractor-plugins-pdf, openoffice.org-pdfimport, pdf2djvu, pdf2svg,
pypoppler, referencer, ruby-poppler, texlive, texlive-xetex, texmaker,
tracker, vifir, xournal, zathura

I'd need to build eclipse-egit-0.9.3-1 (which requires eclipse-jgit
>=0.9.3). Once it's built it can be untagged if so desired. Thanks!

Please create live images for desktop, KDE, XFCE and LXDE for TC1. As TC1
is using side packages, including packages on the live images (anaconda,
parted, system-config-language), the nightlies are not appropriate for TC
desktop testing. thanks!

Comment (by adamwill):
Are we pulling fixes for Blocker / NTH issues from updates-testing, since
this is a TC not an RC? just so we're closer to what's likely to be in the
RCs...
