[Cooker] kde-3.2-alpha2 for test.
Hi, I created all kde-3.2-alpha2 for MDK9.2 just for test. For the moment MDK menu doesn't work. I reapplyed 50 patchs from 400. I will apply them after. There is some update problem: - kmail, knode, korn moved from kdenetwork to kdepim - split is not again perfect (so report all split problem please) - mdk menu not supported - there is a problem with mandrake-galaxy program it frozes kwin (I don't know why :( = I add a conflict and uninstall it please before to launch kde) I ported galaxy theme to kwin 3. MDK menu entry exists but they don't use by kde3.2 I compile all with --enable-debug=full = -g3 News in KDE 3.2 see http://developer.kde.org/development-versions/kde-3.2- features.html Big improvment of kmail/knodes Support SVG format (static and dynamic SVG) Add new program: - kpdf = frontend to xpdf - ksvg - kontact see http://kontact.kde.org/ - kopete now it's into kdenetwork - kwallet gestion of passwd So report bugs found please. KDE config bugs please (config upgrade) etc. Regards. For the moment this packages is not into cooker, so you can download it from http://peoples.mandrakesoft.com/~lmontel/kde-3.2-alpha2/ PS: save your config file PS2: save your mail BECAREFULL it's package for test .

One of the reasons the update took so long is that they are auditing the code *grin* I checked 3.2 OpenBSD and it does run 9.21 I'm told that the do do a legit cheat when auditing. They first recheck the code that didn't change and then repair. Then audit what is left. However I don't know enough about the process there to comment beyond this. Hmmm.. that sounds interesting. I wonder if the bind folks know about this... I'm sure it would be nice to have whatever fixes are commited to openbsd-cvs put back into bind itself. On the sendmail side, I'm not sure.

Vincent Danen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Of course, I still don't get why we're jumping all over proftpd. It isn't really *that* insecure. As I pointed out to Han regarding wu- ftpd, proftpd is in a similar boat. There is this hole, which should be available in updates RSN, but the last one was in Jan 2002... over a year and a half ago. Again, comparing to sendmail, this sucker is pretty secure. Heck, compare it to openssh! How many updates for openssh have there been in the same timespan? We can't just throw stuff out the window because it has a hole today and has had one over a year or two years ago. That's just silly. Why aren't we jumping up and down about ditching php? Or apache? Or cups? Or XFree86? Or bind? Or openldap? The list goes on. All of those have been updated within the last 1-2 years as well, some many many times. It's also about the magnitude of the hole. How big are the chances they will be found again. The recent ssh-hole was technically speaking a remote crash, not nice but nothing dramatic. You still have to patch it but that's something I can live with. On the other hand a remote root is a remote root and that is something I really would like to avoid. Once more. The size of the hole is more important than how often people require you to patch. # Han -- http://www.xs4all.nl/~hanb/software http://www.xs4all.nl/~hanb/documents/quotingguide.html pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

That's just silly. Why aren't we jumping up and down about ditching php? Or apache? Or cups? Or XFree86? Or bind? Or openldap? The list goes on. All of those have been updated within the last 1-2 years as well, some many many times. It's also about the magnitude of the hole. How big are the chances they will be found again. The recent ssh-hole was technically speaking a remote crash, not nice but nothing dramatic. You still have to patch it but that's something I can live with. On the other hand a remote root is a remote root and that is something I really would like to avoid. Once more. The size of the hole is more important than how often people require you to patch. Well, then by it's history over the past year, sendmail should be the first kicked out the distro (3 potential remote root vulnerabilities plus another 2 DOS vulnerabilities). And I don't think there is much reason feature-wise to choose sendmail over postfix. I think second on the list would be samba, but I don't suppose anyone is going to propose a replacement ...

Having been on this list a bit over a full release cycle now, I've waited for this to come up, as I was SURE I was missing something obvious and if I just kept quite someone else would raise the issue and I'd be able to learn.. However, that hasn't happened, and at the expense of looking foolish for overlooking the obvious, I'm now raising the issue, as I'm becoming increasingly uncomfortable with the current situation.

Yes, this is the job of drakconnect (to ensure that whatever the user chooses, they have working name resolution etc). We don't let user choose hostname randomly in DHCP mode. Damien, can you please discuss with us the exact design spec for drakconnect, so that the issue is fixed for 10.0? rant At present, drakconnect makes it excessively easy to stuff up a network configuration. If the user uses no advanced buttons, they end up with: 1)Hostname = localhost (I have already mentioned why this is idiotic, you haven't answered why you think it is a good idea for all the daemons to be using localhost as their hostname, why samba, postfix and cups should be broken out-the-box due to this) 2)tmdns advertising a hostname which the rest of the system doesn't know about 3)In networks with DDNS, the wrong hostname is used, and the DHCP server won't setup DNS entries for the machine. In short, the current handling of drakconnect is useless for any business network (I can't judge it on DSL etc). Please, stop breaking other packages. Maybe in future I will make the default netbios name drakconnectsux so at least Windows machines can connect to a Mandrake machine via samba out-the-box.

Some more security features that are easy to set up for novices, with a home LAN. This could include enhanced visibility and ease of configuring backup and security patches, in post-install mode of drakx and mcc. harmonization of drakx and mcc - using the same wizards etc. Maybe more later Keld

Here's an example: - install foobar-1.2-3mdk backported from cooker to Mandrake 9.1, obviously based on libbaz2. - upgrade the distribution to 9.2. 9.2 has libbaz3 and foobar-1.2.3mdk based on libbaz3 - as the version and release numbers stay the same, the foobar package doesn't get updated to the version linked against libbaz3 It would be nice if packages would include an implicit epoch tag, so a package build on 9.2 will always be newer than one for 9.1 with the same version and release tags. -- What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty or democracy?

Re: [Cooker] How to write a Mandrake HOWTO ?
Yes, there is a big problem with writing docs now that Mandrake is more community-based... as GC and I discussed a month or two ago. Old corporate style is official and looks nice (use XML-related format or whatever), and can be edited with your favorite editor, but can't be transferred easily to the wiki, where most docs should reside IMHO. At the very least, it draws people to the wiki. New community style is to write the doc on the wiki. Problem is editing a large document in a web browser, no syntax highlighting, etc. Does anyone know of an editor for wiki markup? Also, the document is then not easily published elsewhere. Is there an easy way to convert wiki markup to pure HTML, or PDF, or some other publishing format? This is something that should be sorted out, as doc writing is an amazing source of free labour, and allows not-so-technical people to help out too.

We use epoch so rarely that it might be okay, and we could use 9.2.1 if we REALLY needed a new epoch, right? Of course this would require a total rebuild of the distro, edited by hand... no small task.

I don't think that would look very good though. Despite this shortcoming, I think wikis are the way to go for community based documentation as long as someone sets up a document hierarchy when the wiki's put in place (in Gambas' case, I converted some documentation in a SXW file and wrote a program to pull class documentation out of the IDE, but people are free to add stuff outside those initial structures as well.) i think i read smth about a wiki that supports docbook xml, (but i can not find the mail right now, and the [EMAIL PROTECTED] ml server gives error on searching :( ) from docbook xml you can really easy create pdf, html, for dynamic conversation apache + cocoon is a good solution i think (at least for smaller documents, with my ~100page howto is a bit of pain) see http://www.xml-dev.com:8080/cocoon/mount/docbook/linux-faq.html http://www.xml-dev.com:8080/cocoon/mount/docbook/Apache-WebDAV-LDAP-HOWTO.html for pdf just replace the .html extension with .pdf svetljo -- NEU FÜR ALLE - GMX MediaCenter - für Fotos, Musik, Dateien...

Austin BTW, why not putting what is not working correctly on a wiki page : it seems to me that this versioning problem is just a part of the iceberg, so like this everyone can complain, and a better solution can come from having a better view of common/concurrent problems for urpmi. For example in the specific case cited above, it shows the limiting numbering philosophy OR may be one rule could be applied : when two packages have the same name, only the main one should be used. This leads to the second question : why is this happening, should all contrib packages named as it (ctb instead of mdk for example, like plf ...) or another info in the package itself. Or : since the package can be buitl with version 2 and 3, any indication of this ... Just some thoughts ... Stef -- signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Here is only a small portion of the features. I did not do the whole thing as it is much longer than this list. - FTP accounts can be distinct from system accounts, stored in an independant database. Multiple accounts can share the same system id. A built-in indexing database allows very fast lookups. It is sucessfully running with over 1.5 million accounts on the same server. System accounts can be copied to virtual FTP accounts, so that users can have different passwords for shell access and FTP access. - LDAP authentication is also fully supported. Plaintext, Crypt, MD5, SMD5, SHA and SSHA crypto hash functions are implemented. Pure-FTPd was successfully tested with OpenLDAP and iPlanet Directory Server. It uses standard posixAccounts classes. - Built-in secure cryptographic hashes (SMD5, SSHA) can be used with any LDAP server, even those that are lacking support for these hashes. - User info can also be centralized in MySQL databases, with or without transactions. All queries are fully customizable, and requests can be built with user names, remote client addresses, local IP addresses and ports. That way, complex hosting rules can be easily implemented, even with multiple virtual servers on the same host, and multiple virtual domains with many users. - Multiple authentication methods can be chained in any order. For instance, SQL accounts, LDAP directories and system accounts can be used at the same time. - Custom authentication methods can easily be added. Pure-FTPd supports external authentication modules, and writing a new backend can be as simple as a few lines of shell script. - Pure-FTPd supports a virtual quota system : accounts can have individual quota (max number of files, max total size) even when they share the same system uid. - Bandwidth throttling is supported, with distinct settings for upload and download. - Every user can be assigned individual quota, ratio and bandwidth. - Every user can be allowed to connect only from a specific range on IP address, or only to its own virtual host. - Every user can be individually restricted to his home directory or not. - Every user can be allowed to connect only during configured time-ranges (e.g. only during business hours). -- New and improved with advanced outlook crash handler. !--input type -- -~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~- Brook Humphrey Mobile PC Medic, 420 1st, Cheney, WA 99004, 509-235-9107 http://www.webmedic.net, [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Holiness unto the Lord -~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-

As I pointed out to Han regarding wu- ftpd, proftpd is in a similar boat. There is this hole, which should be available in updates RSN, but the last one was in Jan 2002... over a year and a half ago. Again, comparing to sendmail, this sucker is pretty secure. Heck, compare it to openssh! How many updates for openssh have there been in the same timespan? We can't just throw stuff out the window because it has a hole today and has had one over a year or two years ago. That's just silly. Why aren't we jumping up and down about ditching php? Or apache? Or cups? Or XFree86? Or bind? Or openldap? The list goes on. All of those have been updated within the last 1-2 years as well, some many many times. It's also about the magnitude of the hole. How big are the chances they will be found again. The recent ssh-hole was technically speaking a remote crash, not nice but nothing dramatic. You still have to patch it but that's something I can live with. On the other hand a remote root is a remote root and that is something I really would like to avoid. Once more. The size of the hole is more important than how often people require you to patch. Very true. But every openssh vuln hasn't been a crash or DoS. Mind you, with openssh a DoS is bad enough. Need to remote admin servers? What happens if the server goes down and you're stuck driving a long time to get to the machine? (It's happened). A DoS in apache is one thing... ssh in and restart. A DoS in ssh is another... how do you ssh in to fix it if ssh doesn't work? So don't think of it in technical terms... put it in real-world situations and then re-evaluate how bad the problem is. -- MandrakeSoft Security; http://www.mandrakesecure.net/ Online Security Resource Book; http://linsec.ca/ lynx -source http://linsec.ca/vdanen.asc | gpg --import {FE6F2AFD : 88D8 0D23 8D4B 3407 5BD7 66F9 2043 D0E5 FE6F 2AFD} pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

Well, then by it's history over the past year, sendmail should be the first kicked out the distro (3 potential remote root vulnerabilities plus another 2 DOS vulnerabilities). And I don't think there is much reason feature-wise to choose sendmail over postfix. I think second on the list would be samba, but I don't suppose anyone is going to propose a replacement ... (no, samba-tng doesn't count ...). BTW, a lot of the issues could be resolved if there were a standard mechanism for contrib updates. Vince, I think this was about the time you said we could start discussing it? Ugh. Ok, yes, it needs to be dealt with. I'm just not sure of the best way to handle it. Does klama have chroots for older versions? I'd think for contribs, you only really need to worry about the last one, maybe two, versions. Ie. right now, contribs updates should be limited to 9.2, possibly 9.1. I do not want contribs in the official updates tree. No discussion on that. It will give the false illusion that contribs is supported, and updates to contribs will be entirely user-driven. So we can either make a new tree for the mirrors for contribs (I wouldn't be adverse to a updates/contribs/[arch]/[ver], but that would preclude me getting involved to some degree. In my mind, the best solution is to put updates in Club. That way they make it to the Club mirrors and everyone can take advantage of them since non-Club members can also access them. That would be my best solution and my preference.

I hope the suits don't decide against this to protect the added value of their powerpack DVDs. possiblity to nuke files with standard virus extension in postfix (.exe, .pif..) I somehow misread this for plf :-) Which leads me to another problem: backported packages: Projects like plf sometimes need to backport cooker or contrib packages to the stable distribution. This can lead to problems when upgrading to the next stable distribution, when the release number of the package didn't change. Here's an example: - install foobar-1.2-3mdk backported from cooker to Mandrake 9.1, obviously based on libbaz2. - upgrade the distribution to 9.2. 9.2 has libbaz3 and foobar-1.2.3mdk based on libbaz3 - as the version and release numbers stay the same, the foobar package doesn't get updated to the version linked against libbaz3 It would be nice if packages would include an implicit epoch tag, so a package build on 9.2 will always be newer than one for 9.1 with the same version and release tags. Start doing what I'm doing for updates. If you backport 1.2-3mdk from cooker (and we'll asusme 1.2-2mdk or lower is in 9.2), drop the version to 1.2-2.1mdk or, what I'm starting to do, something like 1.2-2.1.92mdk. This then makes it implicit for 9.2, the version is dropped so it's higher than what is in 9.2 (2mdk) but lower than what is currently in cooker (3mdk). -- MandrakeSoft Security; http://www.mandrakesecure.net/ Online Security Resource Book; http://linsec.ca/ lynx -source http://linsec.ca/vdanen.asc | gpg --import {FE6F2AFD : 88D8 0D23 8D4B 3407 5BD7 66F9 2043 D0E5 FE6F 2AFD} pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

I always see Mandrake as a desktop distro, so my wishes are from that side. mcc: * bring back capabilities for changing the lilo/grub theme * real support for linmodems (even if the drivers will not be on the d/l edition) * in 8.2 it had themes, where did they go? * lirc mcc module mdk-kdm: * if could not bring X up, write a messages in console like gdm does * full screen greeter (again gdm like) * if no key pressed in X secs, log in as ... (again from gdm) * avility to run some program for changing the background (roottv for example) misc: * add the mouse cursors packages to main * l10n for Mozilla * l10n for OO.org * bring FireBird to main instead of Mozilla * use also apt-get (with the same repositories, IMHO this can be done no?), let the user which app use to install rpms. * bring sim to main * patch wine to be able to use mono's winforms * mono in mdk out of the box! (if sharp develop will run on mono bring it on baby!) IMHO gcc and glibc can stay at thecurrent version, unless the bugs in gcc will be fixed and glibc will not break anything like 2.3 did :) - diego

Hmmm, this is a neat idea. At present, any mdk rpm you grab off the net, you have no idea what mandrake release it is built for. At one stage, I had: %distribution Mandrake Linux %distro_rel (and a bit before it - which is still there since I use it in other macros - : %distro_rel %(awk '{print $4}' /etc/mandrake-release) ) But rpmlint doesn't like this. Would that work, having epoch: 9.2 in every package? We use epoch so rarely that it might be okay, and we could use 9.2.1 if we REALLY needed a new epoch, right? Of course this would require a total rebuild of the distro, edited by hand... no small task. Maybe this could be done at the same time that we switch to a full-distro rebuild robot that would force everyone to fix their buildrequires (me especially). I don't know if automatic rebuilds can easily (and reliably) change version numbers or release numbers. Epoch numbers would have to be evaluated at build time, adding the packages own Epoch number, without having a recursive macro (which rpm doesn't like). For the meantime, decrementing the release number by decimals may be a better idea. BTW, I actually need a solution for this too. At present, all samba builds from the source release get identical %{version}-%{release} which is probably a bad thing ... %define version 3.0 %define release 1 %define distro 92 Version: %version Release: %release.%distromdk so you end up with 3.0-1.92mdk umm.. untested. =) But you get the idea. -- MandrakeSoft Security; http://www.mandrakesecure.net/ Online Security Resource Book; http://linsec.ca/ lynx -source http://linsec.ca/vdanen.asc | gpg --import {FE6F2AFD : 88D8 0D23 8D4B 3407 5BD7 66F9 2043 D0E5 FE6F 2AFD} pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

I disagree. A lot of nice network-type software would be missing and I sure as heck don't want them all in main. What's wrong with having them in contribs? They aren't officially maintained... so what? Having them in contribs, joe sysadmin can grab the src.rpm for what he has installed, grab the new version or patch, and roll his own. It's still convenient for him to have it in contribs even if he doesn't get it via MandrakeUpdate. I does make sense if we have a note attached on them they can pose a security risk and if people use them they should take care they are up to date. Some sort of mechanism that keeps people informed about updates. For example xmule which was found to be exploitable recently. I expect more troubles from that program. A simple warning after installing wont even do... Can somebody come up with a decent solution to this problem? Hmmm... didn't see this one. I've got a solution. Subscribe to full-disclosure. You'll see what other vendors are putting out and you'll be able to see what needs fixing. Actually, there is no point just explaining servers in contrib are not updated. A real explanation of mandrake policy would be far better: - what is main, what is contrib, and what is update ? - what does get updated ? etc... Good grief.. everyone wants policy policy policy... =) Main is what is in the main tree. You know, what comes in the download edition. The stuff that is labelled not contribs. The meat of the distro. The equivilant of Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/Mandrake/RPMS Contribs is contribs. It's labelled as such. updates? Should be pretty obvious. Updates are stuff in main that need fixing for whatever reason. Main gets updated. contribs doesn't. I don't see what is so difficult about this. This is how it has *always* been. It hasn't changed. No need for a policy regarding it. This is just how it's done. -- MandrakeSoft Security; http://www.mandrakesecure.net/ Online Security Resource Book; http://linsec.ca/ lynx -source http://linsec.ca/vdanen.asc | gpg --import {FE6F2AFD : 88D8 0D23 8D4B 3407 5BD7 66F9 2043 D0E5 FE6F 2AFD} pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

[Cooker] [Bug 4858] [kdeartwork] XScreensaver hacks are missing from the KDE screensaver list
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=4858 --- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-26-09 13:01 --- xscreensaver shouldn't be installed by default in a KDE-only environment, but the kde screensaver should be available by default. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. --- Reminder: --- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: NEW creation_date: description: If you open the KDE Control Center and go to the module for configuring screensaver and have XScreensaver installed hacks from it are missing from the list of available screensavers.

Also if I install KDE 3.1.3 from Texstar it displays all the XScreensaver hacks, It appears that only Mandrake KDE doesn't show them all.
[Cooker] [Bug 5662] [kdebase] suspend to disk either restart the X server or restart the system
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=5662 --- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-26-09 13:54 --- I expect for the suspend functionnality to appear for years. I would be frustrated in some way if there would be always no suspend support in this Mandrake Linux Release ! I already appreciated the CPU acpi management. I wish you some courage for this _very_ expected functionnality. Thanks.

I installed Linux Mandrake 9.2 rc2. I found several bugs with the suspend to disk KDE functionnality. First bug - 1. Under KDE, I selected the menu entry K-Suspend To Disk. 2. I got a window which asked me Do you really want to suspend to disk?. I choosed OK. 3. The screen became black. The hard disk worked a little. I heard the same noise as when the computer is restarting. Then I saw the mdkkdm login prompt. 4. I logged again in and I retried a second time (steps 1, 2) but my screen stayed black. When mouving the mouse, I saw the password prompt (as when locking the screen). I typed my user password and I logged again in KDE. I retrieved the applications I was previously working on. This bug looks like: - a X restart while performing the copy of the memory to the disk. - a reboot runlevel instead of the halt one. Second bug -- Wrong english message: Do you really want to suspend to disk? instead of: Do you really want to suspend to disk ? Third bug - I used a french install. Some messages were not translated in french.
