New Subscriber - Introduction
Hi All, My name is Ash and I have just joined the Fedora Infrastructure group. I've been playing around with Fedora in my spare time (when I could be bothered :P) since 'Core 6', and only recently have I become more eager to discover more about the OS. I built a file server for home on Fedora 10 a while ago, and will be performing a fresh install of Fedora 12 - once the download finishes. I have been working as a Unix Administrator for the past 18 months primarily working with HP-UX and RHEL3, along with IBM and EMC based SAN storage. I also have some experience with HP Data Protector 5.5. Out backup infrastructure consists of 2 physical tape libraries and 2 virtual tape libraries. I would like to participate in the fedora project in some way, however I'm not too sure what I can offer - I thought I'd check it out. Kind Regards, Ashley Biar. ___ Fedora-infrastructure-list mailing list Fedora-infrastructure-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-infrastructure-list

Re: temporary rsync files visible on download-i2
Are you seeing this regularly or just this one time? -Mike On Thu, 19 Nov 2009, Adrian Reber wrote: The configuration of download-i2 seems to be not the same as from the other non I2 download servers: rsync download-i2.fedora.redhat.com::fedora-linux-development/i386/debug/.~tmp~/ gives me a long list of files which should not be visible, whereas running rsync against the non I2 download server gives me rsync: link_stat i386/debug/.~tmp~/. (in fedora-linux-development) failed: Permission denied (13) So the directory (which probably should not be there at all) is on both servers but the I2 server lets me also download it.

PackageDB 0.5.x branched
This is just a notice that PackageDB development is shifting to the 0.5.x branch and what that means if you have a checkout for hacking. First, the big news is that 0.5.x has been branched. We'll be working on stabilizing this with the goal of having a working version before Fedora 13 alpha (Currently scheduled for 2010-02-09). We'll have test releases on https://admin.stg.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/ before that time. 0.4.x is in maintainance mode. There probably won't be another release off of this branch although I will be committing any hotfixes that we generate for Fedora Infrastructure to it. If you want to work with 0.5.x the command to check it out is:: bzr branch bzr+ssh://bzr.fedorahosted.org/bzr/packagedb/0.5.x If you presently have an 0.4.x branch that you'd like to switch over to the 0.5.x branch, you'll need to do:: cd 0.4.x bzr merge bzr+ssh://bzr.fedorahosted.org/bzr/packagedb/0.5.x # Take care of any conflicts bzr commit bzr pull --remember bzr+ssh://bzr.fedorahosted.org/bzr/packagedb/0.5.x # Next time you push, use --remember as well to switch the branch you push # to by default # bzr push --remember bzr+ssh://bzr.fedorahosted.org/bzr/packagedb/0.5.x If you have changes that are going to change the API, are big changes, or destabilize things, please let me know and we can decide whether there's time to push them to 0.5.x or if they should go to fedora-packagedb-devel. We will be pushing a few more planned features to the 0.5.x branch but in general, we have a schedule to hit so we need to concentrate on getting the required features stable by the deadline. There are several big new features in the 0.5.x version and a reorganization of quite a bit of the code so I'll be spending quite a lot of my time working on this. If you need me for something else, I'll be on IRC but this is just a warning that I may not be able to help with random things as much as usual. -Toshio pgpSdZMXrjnq1.pgp Description: PGP signature ___ Fedora-infrastructure-list mailing list Fedora-infrastructure-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-infrastructure-list
