Anyone who either has no network connection or whose network connection is too slow to support downloading potentially hundreds of megs up updates isn't going to be able to upgrade any more? Fedora effectively requires a fast network connection for the regular updates anyway. Really? I've installed Fedora for several people who don't have a decent network connection and have taken updates on a USB stick at intervals. I'm sure there's plenty of the world where install disks are passed round. Even where you do have a fast network connection there can still be problems: 1) All of our servers have to access the internet via a proxy.

(A)synchronous file operations xdg-open
This came up in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=472402 but is worth a more general discussion amongst the developer community, I think. The xdg-open tool is generally a good thing for the users, but at least a couple of cases have arisen where it is not doing the right thing. The problem seems to be that there are two modes of operation that are wanted. (1) Launch a tool that can display a persistent URL. This can be asynchronous, since the object identified by the URL isn't going away. (2) Launch a tool that can display or edit a temporary file. This must be synchronous, since the entity that created the temporary file needs to read it after it is edited, and remove it in either case. xdg-open is being used for both cases. Some of the tools it invokes, such as gnome-open, operate in mode 1 and some (kfmclient?) in mode 2. When a mode 1 tool is used in a situation that demands a mode 2 tool, bad things happen (see also https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=435107). It appears to me that we either need to split xdg-open into two tools, representing the two modes of operation, or else give xdg-open a command-line switch to demand synchronous operation. We also need to figure out which tools it invokes that operate in mode 1 and find mode 2 equivalents for them.

Re: doubt regarding package name
Not all under our control, not all authors still around etc. And these fails
are subtle and sometimes only detected too late.
The truth is that the regexp syntax is almost impossible (actually, I believe
it is impossible) if the prefix is not there.
There isn't enough information to know if it is the same package or not.
People are forced to add explicit had-coded code for each exception.
It is always confusing for humans to track where things are coming from if
subpackages have different names. If one is not in a situation to run a rpm
-qi on the subpackage .rpm one may never know what produced it.
The only reason I don't propose %{name} should prefix all subpackages as a
guideline is that we'd have to fix our geronimo-specs huge spec file ;-)
I actually think I should regardless...

Instead of coming up with such guidelines and thus encouraging making bad assumptions, better tools and user education is needed. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list

Re: more debugging enabled in rawhide kernels.
It has a horrible impact at least on Intel's driver performance. I've run some benchmarks, which show half the performance. This could be due to the update to 2.8.0 or due to debugging enabled. - Clemens 2009/6/25 Dave Jones da...@redhat.com: On Thu, Jun 25, 2009 at 04:53:27PM +0100, Richard W.M.

The argument is simple, fantasy fonts are generally used for their looks and the computer will not be able to guess witch is the best compatible look for the current project. So in my point of view, for fantasy fonts, the computer should display a missing glyph to the user instead of choosing another font that will probably surprise the user.

I had cjkuni-fonts-common and cjkuni-uming-fonts installed. I just installed
cjkuni-fonts-ghostscript and cjkuni-ukai-fonts. My system is fully updated as
of this morning. It makes no difference. The xlsfonts problem reported above
and the problem reported in bz #489145 still persist.
The cjkuni-fonts-common package installs
/usr/share/fonts/cjkuni/fonts.{dir,scale}, both of which contain references to
both the ukai and uming fonts, even if one or both is not installed. This is
how I wound up with a reference to a ukai font while only having the uming
fonts installed.
Anyway, installing more fonts didn't help.

Re: Enabling syntax checking for puppet via a git update hook
On Wed, 24 Jun 2009, Todd Zullinger wrote:
I was talking with Ricky on IRC about enabling some syntax checking
for puppet *.pp files in a git update hook for the infra puppet repo.
The goal would be to help catch typos before they ever get pushed into
the main /git/puppet repository.
I've tested this a bit on puppet1 with local repos and it appears to
work well. But obviously, we'd want to enable this when there were
plenty of folks around to revert it should it cause and prevent work
from getting done.
While testing, I noticed that the update hook in /git/puppet is pretty
much identical to the fedora-git-commit-mail-hook in use on hosted.
Perhaps we'd want to be guinea pigs for converting from that older
update hook to the more current update hook and have mail
notifications handled via the post-receive-email hook? That would
allow us to work out any issues before we enable that on hosted.
I think we would probably want to make this change first, ensure it
doesn't cause any problems, and then add the puppet syntax checking to
the update hook.
Assuming we make the above changes and use the post-receive-email hook
for mail notification, the changes I'd like to make to the current
git-1.5.5.6 update hook to enable puppet syntax checking are:
I'll take a look at this tomorrow, we've got a git check in there now that
does a syntax and notify. I think the only reason it prevents commits is
because I didn't know how to do that :) so all it does is throw errors.
Here's the only got'cha. We mix a private and public repo together. IE:
in our public repo we reference $someDbPassword, and then in the private
repo we create that password. The only time they're together is after a
push has happened. Does this account for that? Does that problem not
even exist anymore?

That should only check the files that are being modified by the push for syntax errors. Puppet is called with --parseonly and --ignoreimport. That should prevent problems caused by a manifest in puppet relying on something in private. Of course, testing it on a manifest that uses a variable define in private would be a good idea. :) Keeping the syntax check in syncPuppetMaster.sh is probably a good backup, as it might catch things that the check on individual .pp files misses. -- ToddOpenPGP - KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~ You're not drunk if you can lie on the floor without holding on. -- Dean Martin pgpgV5K1u7PbJ.pgp Description: PGP signature ___ Fedora-infrastructure-list mailing list Fedora-infrastructure-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-infrastructure-list
Here I am
Hi Everybody, I've been following the infra group for a while now, I am interested in joining the sysadmin-hosted FIG at the moment, since it seems as a nice entry point to all the infra madness I've seen so far :) I'd like to join some other FIGs in the future (web and dba seem to be like my kind of thing) but at the moment my time and n00bness in all fedora-infra related things keep me from doing so. I've done web development for about 8 years now, I've coded in java, php, python. I've done a fair amount of sysadmin-related stuff such as installation and support, a lot of shell scripting, a good deal of python scripting, little perl and ruby. I've served almost equal parts of SCM, RelEng, Web and DBA stuff (hence my interest in joining those particular groups). A side question, is there a particular TODO/wish/bug list for each FIG? I couldn't figure out if there's any, and having jotted down the pending tasks somewhere may attract more people to join the infra group because there would be clear tasks to be done and someone would certainly say hey, I can do that. Anyway, thanks and I'll start bugging^W asking around people from the hosted FIG to see what tasks a n00b like me can do :) Cheers! -- Jorge A Gallegos k...@blegh.net ___ Fedora-infrastructure-list mailing list Fedora-infrastructure-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-infrastructure-list

SSH key warnings
Hi, as some of you noticed (good!), you might start getting prompted to verify SSH host keys on bastion. This is because we have temporarily disabled the system-wide ssh_known_hosts file as we are rebuilding a bunch of machines today. Once everything is rebuilt, we'll go through and update ssh_known_hosts and renable it. The tracking ticket for this is at https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/1476 Until then, you can verify the keys at: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/ssh_known_hosts (might go away once proxies get rebuilt) or http://ricky.fedorapeople.org/ssh_known_hosts Sorry for the alarm, Ricky pgp0pKshXOmJu.pgp Description: PGP signature ___ Fedora-infrastructure-list mailing list Fedora-infrastructure-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-infrastructure-list

Most likely the ancient ALSA in the obsolete release you're using simply

Thanks Ian - I will have to check later as I have a heavy work day today - but prior to yesterday's updates no internal partition icons appeared on the desktop in Gnome - immediately after the updates and rebooting to the new kernel this was the unexpected behaviour. I had not rebooted the machine for about a month prior to last night so it is possible that this new behaviour is due to some other updates that came in sometime during the past month and not specifically one of those from last night.

Pulseaudio and low volume
Hi all, a little pulseaudio problem with F11 and eeepc 1000HD. gnome-volume applet shows only the channel line out, (and it saves the right volume value between sessions) but if I call alsamixergui -c0 I can set PCM volume as well. The problem is that, at the startup, the volume is quite low, even if I set it to the max volume with the applet; so, all the times, I have to start alsamixergui and set the right value. How can I save the alsa volume values between the sessions? Or, how can I link gnome-applet slider to the channel I want ? Also, where is my old good shell friend alsamixer? ;) Thanks Alessandro -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

Some issues in F11
Hello, everyone. Well, I finally got myself in a position where I could finally update from F8 to F11 - much to the complaining of another family member. Since I wanted to reorganize my file system structure, I decided to just back it up and do a fresh install of F11 (and from the looks of things, I'm glad I did). For the most part, after using it a couple of days, it seems to run okay with a few nuisances that I wanted to verify if anyone else is having the same issues or if there is a setting somewhere I'm not aware of. - On varying software packages, occasionally (actually rarely) when I click on an icon or menu option I get a different menu or option than what I selected even though the display indicated that I successfully selected what I wanted. - Upon installation, the system was unable to determine what type of monitor was available and doesn't give me the option to manually select the monitor's type or capabilities. Since the xorg.conf file is not used in F11, I can't simply edit it with the display mode to use and when I create a new one it refuses to use the display settings I put in therby not taking advantage of the full capabilities of my monitor. - When attempting to select multiple files folder in Nautilus, instead of selecting the folders, it will not select them but expands them (and their contents) until after I have selected a few other files / folders first. - Sounds like a bug to me. - I can no longer play MP3 files with Rythymbox and in Nautilus (audio preview) by default in F11 where it could in F8! (This is a major issue with my family) I am sure more issues will be posted later as I recognize them but if someone could offer suggestions, it would be helpful.

Well, you can use the original DVD with a classic kickstart file which just tells Anaconda what to install from the DVD. You don't have to spin your own DVD. Kevin Kofler That was the whole point of the exercise though. Many of the packages I install aren't on the DVD, so I wanted to create a 'DVD' that had them on, even though it was just an iso on the hard drive, and automatically install all of them.

I've read several descriptions on the web and the Fedora website, and I'm still not clear *how* the kickstart file is invoked. It must be so obvious that no one makes note of it. By reading the anaconda code I found that the variable ks='some_kickstart_file' passed to anaconda invokes it, but not *how* that gets into the DVD. As I said, I'm missing something obvious here.
