The impression I got (which might be wrong), is that it was expected that people would test specific packages from rawhide and not be expected to be running it all at once. Porbably the best equvialent to current rawhide would be enabling updates-testing for the pending release. People that needed some that wouldn't break unexpectedly, but still wanted to try out the new stuff could run the pending release without updates-testing. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list

Re: Fedora with Universal Binaries?
Dne 22.10.2009 19:28, King InuYasha napsal(a): I just saw this article about an effort to create Universal binary style ELF binaries for Linux, and I thought that this would be something to watch, so that Fedora could integrate both x86-32 and x86-64 into single DVD sets. http://icculus.org/fatelf/ There is even a proof of concept VM of Ubuntu 9.04 that has both 32-bit and 64-bit kernels and all the apps compiled as FatELF binaries Wandering minds ask what is it good for?

Also, as a suggestion of a suitable way to deal with this issue, the simplest solution would be to have a word with someone in HC and ask them to add to their standard list of questions for those leaving the company. They can then pass on the information regarding who wants to continue or give up their fedora maintainerships at that point in time.

Re: Major reorganization of TeX Live packages
Hi Jiri, On Thu, Oct 22, 2009 at 08:46:29PM +0200, Jiri Cerny wrote: Hi Jindrich, (sorry for not replaying to the original message, I was reading the list through archives) I was using TeXLive 2009 repository before, without any problem. After seeing your message, I followed the instruction In case you have an older TL2009 installed on your system from the testing repository, please consider removing it and installing again. and after 'yum install texlive' I get a lot of missing dependencies. This is likely caused by the not up-to-date yum cache, please clean it with yum clean all and try again. Installing texlive requires dvipdfm from the F12/rawhide repository, which requires kpathsea from the same repository and which in turn requires texlive-2007. Will it be fixed with texlive-2007-45 build? Yes, it is fixed since texlive-2007-45 and on. Just upgrading the kpathsea library itself to 2007-45 should suffice in most cases. You can use packages from here: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=137908 directly or by installing the new kpathsea via yum from updates-testing. (You needn't to install the main TL2007 packages) Another, probably related issue: Why there is not a xdvi (and also dvipdfm) binary in the Texlive 2009 repository. Should one use the one from F12? This seems strange to me to have such mixture of 2007 and 2009 versions. It is intentional, because you can now use old applications (not yet rebuilt against new kpathsea) together with TL2009. Up to now you needed to remove all applications dependent on kpathsea because of its dependency on TL2007 which is removed now.

Action Tags concept for Fedora PkgDB
Hi, I am working on online application database which is becoming part of Fedora PkgDB. Online Application Database was separate project called Amber in the past, but as there had been similar features developed in the Fedora PkgDB, we decided to merge our efforts. In Amber definition there is suggested different concept of apps organization. I like the rasoning there and would like to implement it in pkgdb. I'd like to know your opinion on this. In Online Application Database definition, there are defined two primary use cases I am trying to address: 1/ I want to do 'X' with my computer. Where 'X' might be quite complex task like 'Import videos from my camera and put them on YouTube' 2/ I can already do 'X' with my computer, but maybe I can do it better with different software. There are also some suggestions how to achieve this there. For more information look at Amber definition - https://fedorahosted.org/amber/wiki/Definition. I followed some of the suggestions and this is how I would like to implement it in Fedora PkgDB: Task - - Task is container that will allow us to break complex task into more 'atomic' parts. This should allow us to create toolsets needed for completition of complex tasks. - Task consits of one or more Actions. - Actions shall be added by creating new Action or by choosing from the list of the existing ones. - Task shall be defined by pkgdb users . Example: Task: Import videos from my camera and put them on YouTube Actions: [Capture video, Edit video, Encode video, Upload video to YouTube] Action - Action is atomic task - Action shall be defined by PkgDB user either as part of Task definition process or as standalone entity. - Actions should be used instead of current tags. (I believe replacing current tags would help to avoid confusion from two kinds of tags.) Application tagging --- There is not much difference against current tagging system. Users shall be tempted to input verbs instead of nouns: I use this application to and give it * stars. Input box shall feature AJAX search for existing actions to reduce duplication. User ratings (http://mbacovsk.fedorapeople.org/Amber/mockups/Fedora_app_page.png) shall be updated accordingly. Note: I am thinking of keeping categories imported from .desktop file as read only information Search - Both Tasks and Actions shall be included among other targets for search (app names, descriptions, comments, etc) Does it make sense? Do you think it would be acceptable/ understandable for common users?. Any comments and ideas will be appreciated.

AutoQA will be running at some point, and it can be doing the qa /before/ things get tagged for rawhide, so if you break deps with your build, it doesn't get in, unless you force it and then you face the wrath of releng/qa. To catch core bugs, we'll need a bit more advanced autoqa, doing more than just repo level testing but doing actual package testing. That will grow over time and again can be done pre-tag.
