(support in on ARM as well). Well at the moment there's no even support for uEFI on ARM linux so at the moment it's putting the cart before the horse. It is being worked upon and it's certainly in the pipeline but at the moment it's not there so it's a mute point really, in the future it's possible it will be supportable but it's a long way out which ever way you look at it. Let's get decent Fedora support for the rest of the currently readily available devices and the 100s more that will come out between now and when uEFI on ARM becomes a reality.

Hi, I would like to retire PADL's nss_ldap and pam_ldap from current Rawhide.

For Windows 8 certification on ARM, Microsoft is going to require UEFI with Secure Boot enabled _and_ no method for users to disable Secure Boot or enroll their own keys (the opposite of x86 where they require a disable method and custom key enrollment support).

The current thinking is wait and see. MS is not a leader in the market and the route that most vendors are going in the non MS ARM market is to allow users to disable the security. From the phone perspective where it might be a carrier requirement it's not a market we're even looking at and it's very hard to tell because it's very early in the MS section of the game anyway.

Re: Fedora ARM and SecureBoot
What is Fedora ARM planning to do about the upcoming Microsoft hardware certification spec requiring Secure Boot? By the spec, there must be a way to disable it on x86, but on ARM they expressly prohibit turning it off. I guess the current Fedora/RedHat stance, as explained by Matthew Garrett, is to obtain a MS certificate covering x86 and presumably ARM kernels from Fedora, but this doesn't help respins and mods and even custom kernels---more likely on ARM because of the its relative newness and faster pace of development. People pointed out that MS hardware requirements for ARM don't have anwhere near the market coverage/importance as in the x86 sector, so they argue that it's OK to ignore the issue. Indeed, currently majority of ARM hardware just doesn't care about MS, but Secure Boot is a reflection of the industry trend seeking more security (*) so it's conceivable that more digital signing is in ARM's future, too. So, what is the current thinking? (*) this is true whether one agrees with it or not, and whatever one thinks about SecureBoot technical merit. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Since this "purging issue" is clearly above our heads, the sensible thing would be to ask for help of those who have more experience handling these issues. Maybe file a ticket at https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/report for the Release Engineering team and ask them how to handle the issue.

There just isn't any documentation of what it actually does, to enable you to e.g. do it by hand or have a guess at fixing it if it goes wrong. That is just too risky for me. You cannot upgrade from Fedora 16 to Fedora 17 in an OpenVZ guest, because those don't run an initrd at all (or even a separate kernel). /Benny -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Seems too heavy weight to me for effectively rebasing a package... It is certainly not required. Feature process is a marketing and coordination tool. Not a bureaucracy to rubber stamp merely a rebase. Use it only where it makes sense. In this case, you only need it if you want to advertise this change heavily. Rahul Thanks - I think that it probably does make sense to highlight the updates in a Fedora Feature page going into gluster more generally, this could be one item of several that we want to highlight when we get to the newer community version Ric -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
