Core fonts are an issue for anyone working on X or Linux fonts. You may think this year's big X11 news was driver changes or render magic, but for many people it was that emacs finally released an official stable version that didn't use them (even though they kept the old path as fallback, probably because they don't trust 100% their new code) Every single legacy xorg font package fails validation, because many fonts of this era have incomplete metadata (you could cheat and put the info manually in fonts.dir and no one was the wiser, except people who ran mkfontdir and got garbage indexes as output).

So you have to download stage2 when you reboot and you have to cart your laptop over to the router to plug it in while it does so... it's not like I'm going to be using it for work while anaconda is running Basically, the case where it fails is when there's enough space to download stage2, but not enough space left after downloading stage2 to do the upgrade.

Forwarded Message From: Jesse Keating jkeat...@redhat.com To: rel-...@lists.fedoraproject.org Subject: Meeting (Fedora talk?) to discuss no frozen rawhide Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2009 11:23:20 -0800 Now that 12 is in the can, we need to start talking about 13, and how no frozen rawhide comes into play. I'd like to set aside some time Wed or later to have a Fedora talk + gobby call where we can review the proposal, see where we are with it, and walk through the Fedora 13 development cycle in light of the proposal, so that we can outline where work needs to be done and deadlines for that work. I currently have no meetings scheduled for Wed the 18th, so I'm available from 1700 UTC to 2300 UTC. ___ rel-eng mailing list rel-...@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/rel-eng -- Jesse Keating RHCE (http://jkeating.livejournal.com) Fedora Project (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/JesseKeating) GPG Public Key (geek.j2solutions.net/jkeating.j2solutions.pub) identi.ca (http://identi.ca/jkeating) signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
New package for F-12
Hi, is it allowed to get new package into F-12 by standard make tag, make build, make update workflow? Or rather should I file a ticket to FESCO, since F-12 is in some freeze? I have my package approved and got CVS module already[1]. It is my first time to push a package to frozen branch.

Re: New package for F-12
Krzesimir Nowak wrote: is it allowed to get new package into F-12 by standard make tag, make build, make update workflow? Yes, it's even the only way as it is no longer possible to get the package into the F12 release itself (it's too late for that, the release is already in the process of being mirrored). Or rather should I file a ticket to FESCO, since F-12 is in some freeze? That would be rel-eng, not FESCo, but it's too late for a freeze break anyway, you have to file an update instead.

[Bug 537138] Bioperl doesn't bootstrap on other platforms, circular dependencies
Please do not reply directly to this email. All additional comments should be made in the comments box of this bug. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=537138 --- Comment #11 from Yaakov Nemoy loupgaroubl...@gmail.com 2009-11-13 07:51:16 EDT --- Follows is a list of the packages we had to rebuild to make this work. In almost all cases we had to do a simple rebuild for epel. 'umc' means that we applied our own patches. In this particular case, one of the tests was failing and i need to attach an appropriate bug report. I googled the error and it appears it might be a regression from a bug that was fixed in an earlier version, but i'm not 100% what it is. On that note, is there anything you fundamentally need todo to the spec file to once and for all solve the bootstrap problem? If not, uncommenting and then commenting code seems to work, and i feel this bug can be closed.
