Failed Updates

2009-07-13 Thread Mike McGrath
Due to some issues with internal mirroring, Fedora has not been able to
update its tiered mirrors since Saturday due to high load averages on its
master server. This has caused issues with many public mirrors not being
in sync, and causing users to be unable to install updates or newer
software. Our primary mirror people are aware of the issue and are working
on it. While we are working on workarounds at this moment, we have no ETA
of when the problem will be corrected.

Currently the issue seems to primarily affect i386 users and will have the
symptoms of yum or PackageKit errors in trying to install new software.

To follow updates on this problem, please see ticket:

https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/1531

Re: Heads UP - PHP 5.3.0 in rawhide with new ABI/API.

2009-07-13 Thread Remi Collet
Le 13/07/2009 03:17, Jon Ciesla a écrit :

 - php-mhash (not maintained)
 
 Is it possible to keep this?  I have a package that depends on it, and
 there may be others, though I have not checked.  

$ repoquery --whatrequires php-mhash
php-pear-Net-DNS-0:1.0.0-3.fc11.noarch
limph-0:1.9.5-4.fc11.noarch
limph-hostagent-0:1.9.5-4.fc11.noarch
php-pear-Crypt-CHAP-0:1.0.1-2.fc11.noarch
php-pear-Auth-RADIUS-0:1.0.6-2.fc11.noarch

 If not, is there a
 replacement, or would you recommend that I construct and submit for
 review my own package for it?

This extension is not maintained, removed from main php and not
transferred to PECL.

The recommended new hash solution is HASH, see
http://fr2.php.net/mhash
http://fr2.php.net/hash

The other solution is to become upstream for mhash ;)

Re: non-blocking dbus server

Your options are:

1) Method returns work item id, send a signal WorkDone with the id

This was my first idea..

2) Agent pattern, the server makes calls back to the client using its
unique name.

Sounds good, will take a look at this.

3) Infinite timeouts on method calls is in dbus git master

I don't see how this could help me, I don't have problem with timeout, 
but the problem is blocked server during the method call.

I was wondering why there's no $HOME/bin directory and $HOME/bin not
mentioned in the $PATH variable. Any particular reason not to have that

Hi,

because most people don't need it? Well, I would not be exactly against
making this default, but I'm not sure if $HOME/bin would be the right
one... Since xdg-dirs came around I use $HOME/Applications/bin for that
purpose to keep $HOME cleaner (even though this particular directory
isn't in the scheme...) But I cannot really argue either way...

 Hi,

True.

Look at your /etc/profile (or ~/.bash_profile, I don't remember).

There should be something like:
[ -d ~/bin ]  PATH=~/bin:$PATH

Which means that the folder will be added to your PATH if it exists.

I'm on Windows XP right now, so I can't verify it, but iirc there's
something like that.

$HOME/bin is not on every system and the other default directories in
default PATH are(at least on the most of systems ;) ). However, some
Linux distros do add something as:
# set PATH so it includes user's private bin if it exists
if [ -d $HOME/bin ] ; then
PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH
fi
as default - so this dir gets added automatically when does exist.
I'm generally +1 for changing the default that way - as it would not
change anything for users without that directory.

Adding something like this raises security concerns, as this opens doors
for malicious software.
E.g. some application could but a binary named bash in ~/bin, which
would be run before /bin/bash.
So, if at all, let's use $PATH:$HOME/PATH

Re: Fail2ban + Shorewall Question

2009-07-13 Thread Adam Miller
I maintain fail2ban for EPEL, I can just take the Fedora package as
well unless someone else has a relatively high interest in doing so (I
purely maintain it for EPEL because we use it at work on our servers
and Axel said he had no interest in packaging it for EPEL). I've
needed to contact Axel in the past and he was very responsive so I
wasn't aware there were any issues with his participation in the
project.

1. Your practice to a wide extend defeats one prime rationale for ~/bin: 
Replacing/Overriding vendor-provided applications by per-user installed 
versions.


2. Unless using ~/bin as root, these files are user-installed binaries, 
which under normal circumstances may only have security impacts on user 
files = What you call obvious security reasons are minor concerns.


The only real issue you are solving by appending ~/bin instead of

System-Config-Selinux package review

2009-07-13 Thread Christopher Pardy
Hello Fedora developers, I'm Christopher Pardy I'll be spending the summer 
interning at redhat working on Selinux.

I'm not sure if I've gone through all the nessesary steps for this, if I 
haven't please point me to them.

I've recently finished splitting off some code from policycoreutils to allow 
our packages to better conform with the upstream code. I submitted a package 
review request for this https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=508922 This 
is my first package and I'm sure there's tons of issues with it and I would 
like to get most of them cleared up by the end of the summer. Again if there is 
any steps I'm missing please let me know.

really good calendar server system (and then, obviously, package it) to
be used as the official Fedora calendaring system (then we could
schedule events and all that good stuff in an official Fedora server,
and people could access them via CalDAV or web, and all would be roses).
It's proved a bit tricky, though, to find a really perfect option. See
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/Test/Calendering_Solution
for most of the details on this project. At present, we seem to be
looking at one called Calagator: http://calagator.org/ .

 PS3MediaServer. A Java program to talk to a PS3 with DLNA. I'm  
 guessing this one would have problems because it requires ffmpeg or  
 mplayer/mencoder... Plus as a java program its probably a bit more  
 complex to create a proper spec file for. I've made the other kind  
 often enough, but java ones not so much...

There's a sort of 'agreed-upon-right-way-of-doing-this' candidate for
this particular need, which is a nice modern GTK+ app and based on
gstreamer...but I can't quite pull the name out of long-term storage at
present. Someone will probably know what I mean, though. The one most
people use (as the one I'm talking about is still a bit alpha) is
mediatomb, which is also in Fedora already. Unless this provides
something significant the other options don't, it may not be the best
place to start, since it looks a bit complex.

It seems to be working as expected, given the implementation. Please 
don't blame parts of the software stack just because you don't

 Microsoft's statement is what's generally called covenant not to sue. When 

Right. This is the form of words I was going to bring up.

I thought the difference between a grant of rights and a 'covenant not
to sue' was fairly well-established and non-controversial, since that's
the exact loophole in GPLv2 that Microsoft drove the Novell agreement
through, and the main reason that GPLv3 exists. I remember the point
being discussed and explained at tedious length around the time that was
going on. So it seems a bit odd to have this long thread with some
people arguing that a 'covenant not to sue' and a 'grant of rights to
use a patent' are the same thing, when it seems a fairly
well-established principle, accepted on all sides, that they're not.

(I echo Sam's disclaimer: I'm not a lawyer and this isn't legal advice).

The same application could overwrite .bash_profile too.  Or it would
be very contrived to imagine a security hole that lets you create

Alpha Blocker Bug Meeting: Friday 2009-07-17

2009-07-13 Thread John Poelstra
What: F12Alpha Blocker bug meeting 
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=f12alpha)

When: Friday, 2009-07-17 @ 17:00 UTC (1 PM EDT)
Where: #fedora-bugzappers

It is hard to believe, but it is already time to start getting prepared 
for the Alpha!


For Fedora 12 we are making a concerted effort to pro-actively review 
the blocker bug lists on a more consistent basis.


Right now the blocker bug for Fedora 12 alpha is bug free. Either this 
 is going to be a really solid release that requires little effort... 
or we need to start focusing on rawhide and marking blockers as we find 
them :)


Hope to see you on Friday.

Thanks,
John

Mock issue with ifarch BuildRequires

2009-07-13 Thread Gianluca Sforna
Sorry for the cross-posting, I'm trying to get a clue...

Subject: Mock issue with ifarch BuildRequires
To: Discussion of Fedora build system fedora-buildsys-l...@redhat.com


I am trying to run the tests included in the BuildBot package during
the RPM build, and one of the tests requires darcs, which is built in
Fedora ExclusiveArch %{ix86} x86_64 ppc alpha.
Now, I'm adding to buildbot's spec[1] file an ifarch like:

%ifarch %{ix86} x86_64 ppc alpha
# darcs ExclusiveArchs
BuildRequires:  darcs
%endif

but it seems darcs is never installed in the buildroot [2]

am I just doing something stupid or there's a bug somewhere?

 The same application could overwrite .bash_profile too.  Or it would
 be very contrived to imagine a security hole that lets you create
 ~/bin and place an arbitrary binary into ~/bin/bash, but doesn't let
 you overwrite .bash_profile.  So I don't think this is a security
 concern at all in the real world.

Realistically, the concern is more likely to be binaries accidently 
causing subtle breakage by colliding with the expected behaviour of 
system utilities.

Any plans to submit this change to F-10? This would make life easier for
packagers who package a new program that uses lilypond fonts.

I have found a problem with F-10's emmentaler-14.otf font. As I pointed in bug
510668#c9, F-10's emmentaler-14 is missing a glyph at 0xe19d and because of
that, all glyphs coming after this one is shifted by one unit. (for example: if
these were regular fonts, this means that you push p button but your computer
displays a q). F-11's emmentaler-14 doesn't have this problem.

I think making an F-10 update would be the easiest solution as you won't need
to debug this weird error.

The table-name-tags are easily visible in the hexdump. Please note that the
kern tag is missing in this example as the traditional kern table is missing
in the font file.

Try TTX (from http://sourceforge.net/projects/fonttools/) if you don't like the
hexdump-method.

Another method to check if the font is directly usable on Windows is to use the
GetKerningPairs() API for this font and check the result.

I am no SELinux or Exim expert, but, AFAIK the /boot directory is

Without having seen the config I can only make wild guesses...

However the wild guess I would make is that exim is doing a check for  
available space in the spool and log directories, and this is  
triggering the SELinux check on the statvfs() call.


It is a wild guess though :-)

Can you make sure that there are no references to boot in the config  
files

Re: Fw: Kernel Loading Sequence

Thank you for the info. I just have one more question. I'm still getting the 
following messages before plymouth loads:

ACPI: I/O resource :00:1f.3 [0x400-0x41f] conflicts with ACPI region SMRG

I looked those issues up and I know the first is supposed to be fixed in 2.6.30 
and the second is being worked on. My question is: which kernel config setting 
should I enable/disable so as not to show those messages on startup?

Thank you again for the help.

 Depends on which kernel / patches do you use.
 If it is a vanilla tarball then upstream (lkml / bugzilla.kernel.org)
 if you are using the fedora kernel bugzilla.redhat.com

It's already fixed in 2.6.31rc2
Fedora 11 will pick it up when we rebase, it's not a critical patch.
Rawhide is already fixed.

Re: Does Iced Tea Web Start work on Fedora 10? What about Fedora 11?

 If I select Iced Tea Web Start (default), nothing happens.

Same here on Fedora 11


 I guess I am asking if other people can get Ice Tea Web Start to work.
 I'm hoping to get a clue what I am doing wrong so it will work for me.

On the Sun's download page there's a footnote saying:

* Please use the 32-bit version for Java applet and Java Web Start support.

so my guess is elluminate (and other webstart based sites like webex)
expects and works only with the 32 bit variant.

Now the question is whether it is possible to install the openjdk 32
bit java plugin in a 64 bit OS...

Re: Triple boot windows, fedora, and rawhide

2009-07-13 Thread g
Mike Chambers wrote:

 What I ended up doing, was having my main work station set to dual boot
 as normal, with grub installed to the mbr.  I then installed rawhide and
 just installed grub to the first boot partition.  Then edited grub on my
 main workstation with a stanza for rawhide.  Now, I can install kernels
 or whatever on each install, and don't have to update grub manually.

true, you can chain this way. but what happens if you have a problem with
sector 00 on either of these partitions?

if you lose 00 on your partition, you lose lose your chain to your new
install. if you lose 00 on your mbr, you lose both.

there is nothing wrong with doing what you did. it works. but do cover
yourself, have something in event of a 00 failure.

i did not explain this in other post, and i should have.

 Don't know if it's the easiest or best, but it seems to work fine
 without having to share dir's and all that mess.

easy it is. best is to be found out with time.

as for having to share directories, you do not have to share them. you can
set grub.conf to pull kernel and initrd from which ever place you want.

advantage of chain load is that when you upgrade kernel, grub.conf will be
updated to it's associated /boot directory.

if you use a common /boot, same thing.

what ever you decide, do make a recovery boot disk or usb memory. you can
use rescue mode from install cd/dvd, but there are times when it does not
work.

main thing, know and understand what procedures you have as options and you
will have less problems down the road.

later.

tim,

excuse my delay in replying. noise got in way so i decided to wait until
it quited down.


for someone to send me an email offlist and complain about my sig making
them feel dumb and remove it is more like telling to stop doing something
because i make them feel dumb and they do not like to feel dumb. if they
feel dumb because of it, then maybe they need to have a look at links and
learn something so they will feel less dumb.

i have had many offlist emails asking about the 'learn linux' links and
which one would be best to help them learn linux. most of whom have even
written back and thanked me for having the sig and leading them to where
they have found more help.

who do you think i will give more precedence to?

30 days later, to the day, they post publicly that my pgp is causing them
problems because their email is a second or two longer because their email
is trying to find my public key and can not. so because of this, they tell
me to post my key or remove it.

did this just start happening? was it not happening 30 days ago? why did
they not make mention about the key 30 days ago?

do i expect you to answer for them? !no! i do not. you are not them.

to me it seemed like they were starting a 30 day period cycle of complaint
and gripping. [i can not use that other word]

i went thru period problems with my last wife and that is why she is now
my ex-wife.


 I'd expect you (or anyone else) to ask someone if they can publish their
 key, or send it to you, and accept whatever the outcome was.  I don't
 expect someone to demand someone else stop signing mail, or demand
 anything else, *THAT* is rude.  And you can expect rude demands to be
 replied to with a similar lack of courtesy.

i have had many offlist emails stating that they tried to pull my key but
could not find it on any server and would i mind sending it to them.

i told them that i had published my key years before and that i had a spam
increase so i stopped publishing it and i sent them my key.

there were a couple who tried to impress me with 'facts they knew' about
how keys worked and that i had to publish it. i played with them and told
them that i had to publish nothing and that if someone wanted my key, all
they had to do was ask. when they asked, i sent it. most wrote back and
thanked me. i did not ask them to thank me, it was just their way of being
polite. some people know how to be polite, some do not. i know how to be
polite, just as i can not be polite. i just find it easier to be polite.

i started using pgp because before i did, i had someone send an email as
me and it caused a big stink, even to a point where i was advised to seek
legal advice and i did. things even got to a point where a court date was
set, but before that happened, proof was found and presented to prove that
i had not sent email.

as i mentioned in another post, someone from this list tried to forge an
email in my name, but it did get caught by list server and i received a
notice that it had happened.

i am not sure who sent it, does not really matter. i have an idea of who,
but that does not matter. because it did not show up on list, they know
that they failed. funny thing about it is that i believe that i have an
idea of what it was about because when a poster made a comment about his
wife, it did hit with an implication and he was wide open for a come back.

i started to, but decided against it. i do wish i had emailed him offlist
and let him know just how wide open his statement was. i do believe that
he would have enjoyed knowing about it and had he told his wife, well i
do hope she has a good sense of humor.

that is in past, but is another reason of why i send to this and other list
with a pgp sig.

what is really interesting about those who moan and groan about a second
or two delay about email clients not finding a pgp sig key is that they
say nothing about the posters who continue to use 'text/html' to post to
this list.

like it does not take any longer to download a message that is 2 to 4 times
larger because it is 'text/html' than if it was 'text/plain'?

or is it that they are not as aware of fact that they are receiving
'text/html' email as they are when they have a brief pause and up pops
across displayed header that pgp sig could not be verified. and then they
do not see that until they read the email or note who it is from.


 Don't get your knickers in a twist if you get insulted after being rude
 to someone.

some people do not understand how they come across when they have their
mind set to 'they are right and anyone who disagrees is wrong'. they get
their 'panties in a wad' are tend to be just down right irritated 

NetworkManager pptp vpn and routes?

2009-07-13 Thread Mike Cloaked

I have a laptop running F11 fully up to date, and have NetworkManager-pptp
and pptp installed. In F10 I had the same setup running and I had set up a
vpn connection (pptp) to work with the default route to my home LAN retained
whilst the additional route to machines on the remote work LAN via the vpn
was also active.

In F11 I can set up the vpn connection using a vpn defined in NetworkManager
tabs.  However I cannot get the route behaviour correct.

Can someone point me to the steps needed in the vpn set up tabs to get the
behaviour I had previously in F10 with retaining the default route and
simultaneously having a route to remote machines via the vpn?

Thanks

I'll have to read that report in detail at a later time. In my case,
any time I attempted to define a route, other than the default, pppd
would since fail a few seconds after connecting.

I've noticed that when I do yum updates, that it tends to select local

Perhaps, you get supplied with a less than optimal set of mirrors, and
you want to hand select one or more good ones, and stick to just them.
Visit their websites, and directly download a large file, or two, to get
a feel for their responsiveness (starting to download promptly, and
whether downloads continue at a rapid rate).

Re: VMware Workstation in F11

 when I try to start a VM, I get a message that the .vmdk file can't be

         File not found: xxx.vmdk

        This file is required to power on the virtual machine.  If this

 But the file has not been moved, and when I select the file from the
 browser, VMware still refuses to start.

 Turning selinux to non-enforcing doesn't help.  Problem occurs with
 Workstation and Player.  Everything worked fine with F10, including with
 a 2.6.29 test kernel.

 Anybody seen this?  Anybody know a solution?


Try disabling selinux completely. On my F10 box with vmware server,
permissive mode wasn't enough.

make oldconfig of current kernel config for x64_64 f11?

2009-07-13 Thread Robert P. J. Day

  for the sake of experimentation, i want to build a kernel for my
x86_64 version of f11 using the current /boot/config file and the
current git pull of the kernel source tree.  anyone know any reason
why that might be a hideously bad idea?  obviously, i'll keep the
working version around, but i was just wondering if anyone had tried
this and run into any show-stopper issues.  thanks.

What is the AVC.  It might be just doing a getattr of /root which could trigger 
an AVC.

When an app starts with it's homedir set to /root, it will getattr on the 
$HOME, which can cause this AVC.  Usually these are dontaudited.  So I would 
need to see the AVC to understand what it is complaining about.

 After doing a clean install of Fedora 11, the Apache webserver, httpd

 Httpd was working fine in Fedora 10, same laptop and I started with a

 Question 1:  Is the segmentation faults due to an SELinux policy issue? 
 I checked the files that should be displayed and their security context
 looks correct.  Is there a problem displayed in the first error log line
 where it states:
 
   SELinux policy enabled; httpd running as context
 unconfined_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0
 
 Question 2:  Any ideas of what is causing the avahi error message?  What
 causes a Local name collision?  None of the configuration files

mrtg_t can read etc_t but not execute it, these should probably be labeled 
bin_t.

Please attach the AVC messages that mrtg is complaining about, so I can try to

febootstrap doesn't support kickstart files.  If you want to add that,

Rant: Clamav is not well-integrated

2009-07-13 Thread G.Wolfe Woodbury
I've just spent a frustrating two hours trying to get clamav installed 
and running.  Ultimately I turned if off again to get mail flowing.


First, there are too many different packages required to get the system 
working: clamav-milter, clamav-scanner, freshclam, etc

There should be an easy to install package that gets everything.

Second: The integration into the user system is messy, two usernames and 
multiple groups and conflicting permissions are in use.


Third: It takes manual intervention to get sendmail.mc correctly formed 
and clamav integrated.  I understand that this is necessarily a manual 
process, but there is essentially no documentation of what should be 
done in a recipe.


Fourth: Clamav-milter is different from clamd and there is no initscript 
support for clamd (the scanner daemon) which should be controlled by the 
clamav-milter initscript.


Fifth: Freshclam (the updater) should be better integrated. It takes a 
separate install and configuration (manual) step, and then it complains 
that the version is already out-of-date!


Sixth: I really appreciate the work that the package maintainer has 
done, but the integration and logic are much less than clear and clean.


Thanks for listening.

F10, AthlonXP 2500+, recently updated...System freeze?

2009-07-13 Thread Mike Burger
This may be coincidence, or maybe not...

After the last round of updates to F10 on my AthlonXP 2500+ system, a
couple/few weeks ago, my system has been freezing.  I get nothing in my
logs, I see nothing in the way of the normal kernel debug output that
often spews out to the screen...the system just completely freezes.

I've tried in runlevel 5 (where I normally run, as I use this system as my
desktop) and in runlevel 3.

I seem to recall a thread, recently, where some laptop users were noting
that they were noting increased heat and their fans running more often,
after some recent updates (and specifically noted that they were not
having this issue when dual booting into Windows)...has anyone else noted
similar issues on desktop type systems?

While I realize that there are risks to using bleeding edge operating
systems, I've been a Red Hat user since 4.2, and a Fedora user since FC1,
and not having my desktop system usable is causing me great distress, at
this point.

Thanks.

I don't now the cause, but the problem is obvious:
The i386-updates repos are broken and none of the people in charge has

  thoughts?  i *am* up and running at the command line so that's a
good sign, but given the grief i've had with radeon drivers lately,
this development doesn't really surprise me.

  given that this isn't an officially supported kernel, is there any
value in BZ'ing this?  i can supply /var/log/Xorg.0.log and everything
else that's usually relevant.

F11: Blender and the i915 driver

2009-07-13 Thread Marco Guazzone
Hi all,

It seems that the i915 driver of the kernel shipped with F11
(2.6.29.5-191.fc11.x86_64) has some problems.

When I start blender (v, 2.49a) my X will completely freeze!

Looking in /var/log/messages:

F11x64 and Java Web Start = Nada...?

2009-07-13 Thread Christopher A. Williams
I have a friend we just installed F11 (64-bit) for. They need to use an
application which requires Java Web Start (IcedTea Web Start?)

Problem: This simply isn't working. the .jnlp file asks to load IcedTea
Web Start and then does absolutely nothing...!

I need to get this working ASAP. Ideas on what could be wrong and what
any potential work-arounds might be?

Re: Rant: Clamav is not well-integrated

2009-07-13 Thread Dunc

G.Wolfe Woodbury wrote:
I've just spent a frustrating two hours trying to get clamav installed 
and running.  Ultimately I turned if off again to get mail flowing.


First, there are too many different packages required to get the 
system working: clamav-milter, clamav-scanner, freshclam, etc

There should be an easy to install package that gets everything.

Second: The integration into the user system is messy, two usernames 
and multiple groups and conflicting permissions are in use.


Third: It takes manual intervention to get sendmail.mc correctly 
formed and clamav integrated.  I understand that this is necessarily a 
manual process, but there is essentially no documentation of what 
should be done in a recipe.


Fourth: Clamav-milter is different from clamd and there is no 
initscript support for clamd (the scanner daemon) which should be 
controlled by the clamav-milter initscript.


Fifth: Freshclam (the updater) should be better integrated. It takes a 
separate install and configuration (manual) step, and then it 
complains that the version is already out-of-date!


Sixth: I really appreciate the work that the package maintainer has 
done, but the integration and logic are much less than clear and clean.


Thanks for listening.

G.Wolfe Woodbury


I sure pretty much anyone who uses clamav uses the one from RPMforge.

Its a lot tidier and actually works out the box, and has a service set 
up for clamd


The fedora one is well known for its awfulness

simple LDAP for address book?

2009-07-13 Thread Tom Horsley
Every once and I while I take a look at trying to setup an
LDAP server on my system for keeping address book info (so
I can access it remotely as I already do with my dovecot IMAP
server).

Every time I start looking at it, I find way too much
information about enterprise class directory servers
and sql back ends and user authentication, etc.

Anyone know of a simple howto somewhere on the net for
setting up LDAP just to use for a personal address book?
(Preferably some server offered in fedora repos).

I have this feeling I could write my own custom LDAP
server in less time than I could understand the documentation
for the existing ones :-).

 Is Exim not executing it's job as it is supposed to - as in delivery

 I am no SELinux or Exim expert, but, AFAIK the /boot directory is
 not supposed to be related to the regular functioning of Exim.

disabling IRQ # 16

2009-07-13 Thread Frank Cox
When I got up this morning I discovered a message that I've never seen before on
all of the open gnome terminals on my desktop:

message from syslogd: disabling IRQ #16

I checked /var/log/messages for further information and all that I found was
this:

Jul 13 04:53:01 mutt kernel: irq 16: nobody cared (try booting with the
irqpoll option)

Everything seemed to still be working, but I just rebooted this computer as a
kind of a precaution.

What just happened?

It seems to work satisfactory for me.  The only problem I've had with it 
is that even though it gets it right most of the time, every now and 
then it doesn't put a response under the message it should have.  That's 
pretty rare, though.

Let me know when you figure this out. I've wanted to do something
