Python libraries problem with F34
by Frederic Muller 07 Jul '21

07 Jul '21

Hi! Some of my Python code which was running without any issue fails miserably with F34. Python is now version 3.9, I found some building bugs for 1 of the libraries which has been fixed earlier this year. Namely I have issue with urllib3 and pexpect. Where should I ask about it? I feel this list is not really about Python issues, and that code was working fine with Python 3.8. Thank you. Fred

I install every single library using the -user parameter and I still am getting conflicts such as What I'm getting at is that its fine to use python without bothering to setup venv. There are problems that venv is a wonderful solution to. I do not bother with venv unless its needed. > > Warning (from warnings module): > File "/home/fred/.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/requests/__init__.py", line 89 > > I (mis?)understood from Felix that this is conflicting with site-packages. So how do you install libraries using -user which would not create such an issue? Can you provide the complete command line and output? Warnings are just that warnings. If that is all you are seeing its not a sign that things are broken. The warning is probably a hint that things may break in the future. Barry > > Thank you. > > Fred >

downloading a complete web page without using a browser...
by dwoody5654＠gmail.com 07 Jul '21

07 Jul '21

I have been using a shell script called save-page-as.sh to download a complete web page. This has been working as expected. The relevant line the the script is: "${browser}" "-new-window" "${url}" &>/dev/null I now need the ability to run this program or another program via email to my computer from other locations. I do not have the option to login remotely. The save-page-as.sh program runs firefox. I have not been able to get this to work using email. env shows DISPLAY=:0.0. I have added each of the Display commands as below: export DISPLAY:0 export DISPLAY:0.0 export DISPLAY:0.1 None of those have worked. the url I am trying to download does not have an extension ie. no '.htm' such as: https://my.acbl.org/club-results/details/338288 wget does not download the correct web page. Appreciate any pointers to get the save-page-as.sh working using a browser or a different command line program. David

grub seems to now ignore the settings in /etc/default/grub. What is needed to restore the function of setting a specific boot option?

DNF not Installing all Updates?
by Stephen Morris 06 Jul '21

06 Jul '21

Hi, I have just done a sudo dnf upgrade on F34 which I think upgraded 1311 packages. After the update finished I rebooted F34 and then ran discovery and it was still telling me there was 628 MB of F34 Platform updates to put on, which I did put on. Why is dnf not installing all updates that are available? Is there a configuration that needs to be done to alleviate this that is not done in an "out of the box" install, or, is this telling me that we shouldn't be doing updates with dnf we should be using Discovery instead? regards, Steve

NM, wpa_supplicant flooding error log
by Jon LaBadie 04 Jul '21

04 Jul '21

Laptop running F34 with an "Intel Cannon Point-LP CNVi [Wireless-AC]" controller. Every 10 seconds I get this error message (/var/log/messages): wpa_supplicant[78893]: wlo1: CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-FAILED ret=-22 A websearch shows this is not an uncommon problem though most see it every 1 second, not 10 seconds. I've tried numerous suggested solutions that were all ineffective (reboot after changes). These included: - downgrading wpa_supplicant (none available) - downgrading NM (restored current) - eliminating all NM interfaces except the active one - eliminated the ethernet (wired) NM interface - several .conf changes for NM and wpa_supplicant Still the messages keep coming (200K+). Any suggestions? -- Jon H. LaBadie jonfu(a)jgcomp.com

Windows 11 KVM and video?
by Tom Horsley 04 Jul '21

04 Jul '21

I notice another requirement for Windows 11 is DirectX 12. Qemu KVMs have never (as far as I know) gotten any kind of 3d video acceleration. Won't that also put a crimp in Windows 11 KVMs?

Creating a user-level systemd unit
by Patrick O'Callaghan 04 Jul '21

04 Jul '21

I'm trying to get a specific service to start on login, and the usual method (KDE Autostart) isn't working so I'm trying to do it with a systemd unit: $ cat startinsync.service [Unit] Description=insync-headless service After=default.target [Service] ExecStart=/bin/sh /usr/bin/insync-headless start KillSignal=SIGINT [Install] WantedBy=default.target The docs say that the place to put the unit file is given by: $ pkg-config systemd --variable=systemduserunitdir /usr/lib/systemd/user So I copied the file there: $ ls -l /usr/lib/systemd/user/startinsync.service -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 177 Jun 29 12:31 /usr/lib/systemd/user/startinsync.service and tried to enable it: $ sudo systemctl enable startinsync Failed to enable unit: Unit file startinsync.service does not exist. I'm out of ideas. poc
