It would be better to keep upstream kernel defaults, especially so that someone building their own kernel wouldn't get different settings without any obvious documentation. I don't see a problem with Fedora deciding on different defaults, but it is much more obvious to a system admin if they're in a config file rather than the kernel source. > (That said, if that's really not possible, and we need to keep the file, > we should probaly name it /usr/lib/sysctl.d/00-systemd-default.conf or so) The default file should probably then not be marked as a config file in the RPM (and should be commented as such).

Qt compiler tool names
I was wondering why Qt compiler tools (qmake, moc, uic, etc.) are installed with each name suffixed with -qt4 (qmake-qt4, moc-qt4). This diverges from how upstream names its tools (specifically, without qt4 added), so it caused me a little confusion when these tools appeared to be missing. My solution was to add /usr/lib/qt4/bin to my PATH since this directory contains symlinks that use upstream's name. However, I would prefer the tools to be installed in /usr/bin without -qt4 appended.

Hi Dan, I suggest that is something the application should determine, not NetworkManager. Take the case where a ISP loses international connectivity, then a NetworkManager-informed application won't connect to the in-country ISP's IRC/e-mail/... server even though those servers are available. Thus connectivity detection worsens a partial loss of connectivity into a full loss of connectivity. The app has to be able to handle no connectivity anyway: just because Network Manager can HTTP GET the URI doesn't mean that IRC works. For example, a corporate firewall could allow HTTP but block IRC. Both the end-to-end argument and occam's razor argue for the application gracefully handling no connectivity. The current situation is that many apps don't handle a lack of connectivity with grace. But I suggest that this isn't NetworkManager's problem to solve. Even the current situation isn't great. NetworkManager shouldn't be telling applications that the network is available. That DBUS message should be triggered by the insertion into the main forwarding table of a default route. Then any source of global connectivity will set the app connecting (NM, NM work alikes, "ip route add", ospfd, tunnels, etc). Best wishes, Glen PS: I really don't understand the operation of dnssec-triggerd. The paths for HTTP and DNS traffic through an enterprise network can be very different so testing one protocol doesn't say a huge amount about the availability of the other protocol. But then I don't even understand the desirability of that program: allowing an external event (eg an access list on a router or a DoS attack) to trigger a reconfiguration from a DNSSEC-validating to a non-validating configuration seems more of a security bug than a feature. But I'm likely missing something here. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

With the blacklist in place, you'd get the fallback mode. Right now, anyway. It may change so that you wind up with software rendering of the Shell. Ben is working on a rewrite of the driver for these cards; what's unclear is whether it will be done in reasonable time to get merged into F17. If it does, we'll see if we can merge it in and remove the blacklist. If it doesn't, you'll have the blacklisted behaviour with the released F17. > And I went looking into nVidia non-free driver but it appears there is a > problem with glibc conflict that prevents use of these drivers.

Also, can you boil this down a little for those of us with nVidia FX NV3/NV4 graphics? What can we expect for F17 in the way of supporting our nvidia graphics cards?

How do we prevent inexperienced testers from giving undeserved karma and thus causing an update to be automatically pushed to stable?

Re: DHCPv6 *still* broken for F17 alpha
* Petr Pisar > How does fd00::/16 differes from 10.0.0.0/8? Why getting site scope > address in IPv4 is Ok, while getting such address in IPv6 is considered > as failure? Just a little comment regarding the terminology used here. The terms "global", "site", and "link" scope have very specific and defined meanings in IPv6. If you run "/sbin/ip -6 address list" you will see that all the addresses returned include their scope. You can also select addresses by their scope (e.g. do stuff like "/sbin/ip -6 address flush scope global"). ULAs, fd00::/7, explicitly have a global scope. This is because their reachability is not restricted to a single organisation or site - one of the main features of ULAs compared to site-scoped addresses are that even though they won't be seen on the public internet, two separate organisations can very well connect using VPNs or private interconnects and use their own separate ULA prefixes to communicate. In other words, the scope of ULA addresses are defined by the routing and network topology around them, not by the actual addresses themselves. Look at RFC 4193 for more details (in particular section 3.3). This means that if NM's connectivity check were to report that it had "site" connectivity when only having ULA addresses configured, it would actually be incorrect as far as IPv6 terminology goes. It would be more correct to say "not internet" or something along those lines.

But I'm still interested in the > failure cases. So what you have here is a double failure, of sorts. First, your DHCPv4 service is broken, and second, your IPv6 service is broken too, but in a way that doesn't stop RAs. You'd like the connection activation to fail in this case. But what do you really accomplish? The systray icon will say "not connected", which may be somewhat useful, but on the other hand, by allowing it to say "connected" instead, the user is really not any worse off - his browser (or whatever application will give him error messages in both cases, and he won't get to do what he wants to do. Besides, conceptually, this error isn't any different from another one that doesn't involve IPv6 at all. Let's say that the DHCPv4 server in your home gateway router works beautifully, but that its upstream DOCSIS/DSL/fibre/whatever link doesn't. (Having myself been on DSL for a number of years, I'll be damned if this is not something that happens *way* more frequently than the scenario you outlined above.) If you want to be consistent in not activating the network connection when internet connectivity doesn't work, you'd have to make sure the connection fails in this case too, right? But you don't, you allow the connection to succeed without the internet connectivity working. Which leaves the user in the exact same place as the guy behind the Actiontec. It's been like this for, like, forever. And somehow, the sky hasn't fallen yet. :-) However, if you turn it around, the guy behind the Actiontec with the defective DHCPv4 server might actually have working IPv6 connectivity, or at least he will have soon - Comcast is one of the leading ISPs in the world when it comes to IPv6 deployment. Do you really want to leave him without *any* connectivity in this case, or is it better to leave IPv4 failed but IPv6 working? Remember, with the entire connection failed, he can't get anywhere at all. With IPv6 still working, he'll be able to get to Google and try to find out what is going on, he'll probably be able to get to Comcast's customer portal to request assistance, or simply to hit Facebook to kill some time. That has got to be much better than having no connectivity at all, agreed? And, finally, that IPv6-only networks are a perfectly valid configuration is undisputable. Requiring IPv4 breaks those, too. The way I see it, what you gain by not allowing IPv4 to fail is providing the user with more clear error message in the case of a very narrow failure scenario. You don't actually fix or work around the problem in any way. Furthermore, you break other valid configurations, and aggravate other narrow failure scenarios. It's clearly not worth it, in my opinion. I know my patch is already in NM git, so I just wanted to send you this message mostly so you can sleep easy at night - convince you it was the right thing to do. :-) Thank you again! > Next up, since AFAIK fdxx:: is a non-routable private network (like 10/8 > right?) should NM say that we're only connected to a site-local network > here?

That's more a discussion for how we as the Fedora (and upstream GNOME) devs can fix the problem than how you as a user can fix it. The 'blacklist' we're talking about is GNOME's blacklist of cards that have 3D-accelerated drivers that seem to satisfy all the Shell requirements, but are in fact known to be incapable of satisfactorily rendering Shell. It's located at /usr/share/gnome-session/hardware-compatibility (in F17, anyway, I think it may have been different in F16). It blacklists based on the Mesa renderer string; the level of granularity it's capable of depends on how each Mesa driver decides to write its renderer string. For the main drivers (Intel, Radeon, Nouveau) it's possible to achieve pretty much GPU-level granularity. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

I just > think that "karma" is outside of a reasonable workflow for a bug reporter. The 'karma' relates to the update as a whole, not any specific bug. What we're principally concerned with in the 'updates testing' process is not 'does this update fix the bugs it claims to fix' but 'does this update cause any major functionality regressions'. It's useful to read https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Proven_tester in this context. It is/was intended as instructions for proven testers but it's useful reading for anyone in filing karma. The current system is clearly limited in quite a lot of ways. The single, numeric karma system really isn't sophisticated enough. I've mentioned this several times, and wrote a fairly long post explaining the advantages of a more complex system (and hence, by implication, the drawbacks of the current system) at https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/test/2011-November/104579.html . Luke has had Bodhi 2.0 in the works for a while, now. A large part of what Bodhi 2.0 will do is what's described in that post - allow for multiple, possibly-dynamically-definable types of feedback on updates, rather than a single 'karma number' for each update. That might be an appropriate time to try and work some kind of connection between Bugzilla and Bodhi. But I still think it might be very difficult to do; it's very difficult to parse a freeform Bugzilla comment and be sure whether it means 'the update's good' or 'the update's bad', and implementing some kind of 'tick here if the update works' box in Bugzilla requires downstream patching of Bugzilla, which we're currently quite heavily opposed to. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Most of the packages using this configuration method are configured by reading oneBigFile, which then explicitly loads conf.d/*. In other cases, both configuration methods seem to be compiled in, and it is not clear which one is done first and thus possibly overridden. The override order is determined by whether the changes are before or after the conf.d/* invocation. If the conf.d/* load is in the beginning of oneBigFile's contents, the settings from the conf.d/* files are overridden. This is how sysctl.conf behaves. It makes more sense to me that files in conf.d override the main file, e.g. because they are loaded at the end of the oneBigFile. I prefer this behavior because the individual files in conf.d/ directory can be provided by optional components, which, in this scheme, don't have to touch the main config file. /etc/httpd/conf.d /etc/php.d /etc/dracut.conf.d /etc/ld.so.conf.d /etc/prelink.conf.d /etc/reader.conf.d /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d /etc/dracut.conf.d/01-dist.conf /etc/fonts/conf.d /etc/polkit-1/localauthority.conf.d /etc/polkit-1/nullbackend.conf.d /etc/reader.conf.d /etc/revisor/conf.d /etc/revisor-unity/conf.d /etc/yum/pluginconf.d /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf.d /usr/share/ghostscript/conf.d -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Looking at this specific case, I think it would have been appropriate for dcbw to go ahead and add karma to this update, with a note that this is "proxy karma" and linking to your comment #10 on that bug.

Well, it works just fine so long as you understand the various httpd contexts and that you'll have to set the context on any file that things running on your server genuinely need to be able to write.

I think these release updates should automatically gain partial, per-bug karma from "works for me" in the bug reports. "karma" for the update in total needs to come from people in a "release-engineering" role, rather than people in a "bug reporting/fixing/testing role". I agree that people using an "update testing" repository are reasonable candidates for the "release-engineering" role, but "bug reporting/fixing/testing" role doesn't require "update testing". The bugs fixes might be tested directly from koji, or from some private builds, or even from local patching. I am trying to be constructive here. We're all busy people.

Mass deduplication and reassignment of ABRT bugs
As a part of the ABRT Backtrace Deduplication Service[1], we are planning to close and reassign old ABRT bugs in bugzilla. Bugs which were found to have similar backtraces will be closed as duplicates of the bug with most CCed users. If the bugs originate from different components and their backtraces have a common part traced to another component, the bug may be also reassigned. We would like to run it sometimes next week, possibly on Tuesday. The bugzilla changes will be made from abrt-...@fedoraproject.org account and it will close about one third of the currently opened ABRT bugs with parsable backtrace. You can already see some of the expected results in the testing bugzilla at partner-bugzilla.redhat.com. If your bug was closed or reassigned incorrectly, please reopen or reassign it back, it will not be touched again by the bot. A full log of the currently planned bugzilla actions is here: http://mlichvar.fedorapeople.org/tmp/dedup.actions.bz2 Summary: ACTIONS: CLOSE_DUPLICATE: 2632 CHANGE_COMPONENT: 144 SUGGEST_DUPLICATE: 229 SUGGEST_COMPONENT: 75 COMPONENTS: TOP10 closed as dup: 315: rhythmbox 298: nautilus 171: gvfs 122: totem 93: gnome-online-accounts 93: gnome-shell 75: control-center 63: empathy 58: gnome-panel 50: notification-daemon TOP10 unassigned: 16: totem 14: gnome-shell 12: nautilus 9: rhythmbox 5: control-center 4: brasero 4: notification-daemon 4: transmission 3: gtkpod 2: tracker TOP10 assigned: 38: gtk2 17: gstreamer 14: gtk3 8: libX11 7: mesa 6: cairo 6: GConf2 5: gstreamer-plugins-base 4: python 4: qt BUGS: TOP10 deduped: 90: 737640 51: 658318 42: 739779 29: 755772 29: 717740 28: 712907 27: 703242 23: 660384 22: 751916 20: 753369 If you find a suspicious action, please let us know at crash-catc...@lists.fedorahosted.org or file a ticket at https://fedorahosted.org/abrt.

It's also a bit unclear in that the thing that was added to .gitignore is the tarball file name (you don't want to check it into the VCS - that's what the lookaside is for). Maybe it would be more explicit to output a line like: Uploaded and added "fooble-1.2.3-rc3-git1.tar.gz" to .gitignore: Should be a quick & simple patch.

The upload puts the new sources in the lookaside cache, which is outside of git, and updates the sources file, but doesn't commit it to git, because the assumption is that your have other changes to make, like updating the spec, new patches perhaps, etc. -J > Hope this explanation is not even more confusing:) > > Best regards, > -- > Jan Synacek > BaseOS team Brno > -- > devel mailing list > devel@lists.fedoraproject.org > https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel -- in your fear, seek only peace in your fear, seek only love -d. bowie -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

The file changes when you execute new-sources and should be commited, because it contains an md5sum of the source tarball.

Perhaps and stupid question: After upload new-sources to repo, it outputs: Uploaded and added to .gitignore: Source upload succeeded. Don't forget to commit the sources file I don't understand!

Thanks for sharing. However, I would suggest that any "make check"-spawned process that does not terminate is a test script bug that should be fixed upstream, e.g., by prefixing the command with "timeout $n_seconds" for some reasonable number of seconds. Even though some systems lack timeout (introduced in coreutils-7.0 2008-10-05) I still use it (e.g., in grep) along with an invocation of this function: require_timeout_() { ( timeout 10s true ) > /dev/null 2>&1 \ || skip_ your system lacks the timeout program timeout 10s false; test $? = 1 \ || skip_ your system has a non-GNU timeout program } Then, the test is simply skipped on a system without "timeout". Of course, if upstream cannot be bothered to correct the tests, it's sure good to have your orphanripper program. Just don't let it serve as an excuse to write sloppy tests. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Bug 803646- Password is visible on gnome-terminal
Hi, The description of the bug says " With English-typing-booster enabled on gnome-terminal, while using su- command, password appears in the text". English typing booster is IBUS-IME for english language. Any thoughts or comments regrading solution will be appreciated.

That works very well. However, the base64 output in my first log was corrupt, due to some asynchronous output (stderr about job completion) that was emitted in the middle of the big base64 block. Adding the "sync; sleep 10" part below should avoid that in the future: Instead of the usual %check rule, make %{?_smp_mflags} check I now use this, when needed: # After a failed make check, tar up, compress and base64-encode all results # The "sync; sleep 10" should ensure that no async output is printed # in the middle of the big base64 block. make %{?_smp_mflags} check \ || { st=$?; tar cf - . | xz -9 | base64; sync; sleep 10; exit $st; } -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Kevin Kofler Policy always hinders the most talented workers (in this case, the best package maintainers). The purpose of policy is to limit the damage a less experienced package maintainer can do. How do we prevent an inexperienced package maintainer from prematurely pushing updates to stable? Perhaps you could allow package maintainers to add karma, but only on a special page. The page has a short blurb explaining karma policy, and if the maintainer wants to add karma himself, they have to click the reason they're adding karma.
