Packaging StumpWM
I've been using StumpWM ( http://www.nongnu.org/stumpwm/ ) perpetually for awhile now, and I would like to see it as a package in Fedora. The trouble is, its in Common Lisp (which I'm not terribly comfortable with) and I've run into some trouble with building it (something to do with prelink I think. RPM complains about the checksum, and when I try to turn prelink off, the RPM I get out has a mangled binary that's 6MB smaller than it should be and won't execute). Is there anyone else who would use this sort of thing and is a bit more familiar with common lisp and how to package it on Fedora? --CJD -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list

Having it in /pub/fedora/linux/releases/#/Everything/ (where # is an integer, not the *.9? stuff) makes it easier for people following development in that scripts for syncing repositories will be consistant between when you are on rawhide and when you are on a release. Assuming that fedora-release also starts using compatible version naming, then you can also consistantly use $releasever in development as well. I think the confusion for normal users will be minimal, because normal users won't be looking at the raw repos in any case. Livna has recently started doing this.

Of course, most mirrors are auto-updating via rsync, so perhaps that doesn't translate particularly well... But it would also make it easier for mirror admins who don't want to mirror anything but the actual released releases. Yeah, sucks for mirrors. If you don't do hardlinks for a while first, they'd have to re-sync the entire pile of packages. And if you're going to do the hardlink dance, might as well use the base location first. Most of our mirrors tend to use the fedora-enchilada path so we're not likely to break too many expectations by having something in releases/ change, any more than by having something in releases/test/ change. Also it makes having test/12/Everything and test/12-Alpha and test/12-Beta a tad bit confusing when all in the same dir. I think this is less confusing than having a release/12 well before the actual release of 12 though. Perhaps test/12/Everything would more accurately be called test/12/Nightly in this scenario? This is why we'll set the expectation of the release on having the Fedora/ path show up. Since that's really what signifies the release, having gpg signed checksummed isos show up, and torrents getting turned on, etc.. There will have to be some expectation changes, but really the kind of people digging at raw mirror paths are going to be the kind of people that can adjust their expectations.

This is going to be more relevant if koji signing happens and packages don't get different signatures depending on which repo they are in. That would be nice for updates/updates-testing moves too. For that, I've thought it might work to put them all in updates/.all or someplace, with updates/... or updates/testing/... being hardlinks to that. Releases prior to F-11 wouldn't benefit from that at all, as the RPMs actually change when going from updates-testing to updates due to being signed with different keys. I think that it will still help with large enough rpms since rsync will try to use parts of the files if they match names. (There options to try to use files with similar names, but I don't think that is very useful for compressed files since they change almost everywhere.)

On Wednesday 22 July 2009 14:14:32 Jesse Keating wrote: ... Churn on the mirror configs and the repo files, That much sort of sucks, yeah, but meh. We change it at least once anyway though, going from rawhide to release, so is one more change here a huge undertaking? (I ask because have no idea) Well every change has potential to break users who have had to do some customization, and it hurts 3rd party repo setups. It'd be nice to install a repo config at Alpha and have the paths used remain useful and valid through the entire release. Would make it easier to attract users at Alpha/Beta and not suddenly drop them off the face or drag them into the next rawhide. ... Of course, most mirrors are auto-updating via rsync, so perhaps that doesn't translate particularly well... But it would also make it easier for mirror admins who don't want to mirror anything but the actual released releases. Yeah, sucks for mirrors. If you don't do hardlinks for a while first, they'd have to re-sync the entire pile of packages. And if you're going to do the hardlink dance, might as well use the base location first. Most of our mirrors tend to use the fedora-enchilada path so we're not likely to break too many expectations by having something in releases/ change, any more than by having something in releases/test/ change. ... This is why we'll set the expectation of the release on having the Fedora/ path show up. Since that's really what signifies the release, having gpg signed checksummed isos show up, and torrents getting turned on, etc.. There will have to be some expectation changes, but really the kind of people digging at raw mirror paths are going to be the kind of people that can adjust their expectations. All good points... Okay, I think I've been sufficiently convinced that dropping the bits into /pub/fedora/linux/releases/ is just fine after all.

xextproto and libXext changes - possible build breaks
As part of an upstream cleanup of the xextproto and libXext repositories, some header files that didn't belong to the former were moved to the latter. Along with that, some header files got renamed to match the common naming scheme. The rawhide packages for xorg-x11-proto-devel and libXext now have these cleanup bits. These changes affects most graphics drivers and these drivers will be updated accordingly. The changes should not affect clients directly, but the packaging is affected. Clients may be affected by this change if they include one ore more of the following headers: dmps.h lbxbuf.h lbxbufstr.h lbximage.h MITMisc.h multibuf.h security.h shape.h sync.h Xag.h Xcup.h Xdbe.h Xext.h XEVI.h Xge.h xtestext1.h XShm.h XTest.h XLbx.h The BuildRequires should be adjusted to libXext-devel. In the case of XTest.h the new BuildRequires is libXtst-devel. If your package has build errors, please contact me off-list and we can sort it out.

Or maybe no one else cares. What is used in its place. Maybe huspell. My F11 netbook uses kde-fedora repos, so may be more up to date than straight F11. However, /usr/lib/aspell does have the dictionaries here. My aspell is 0.60 Anne Well there is always something to learn. I created a kde.repo. My aspell is also aspell-o-60.6-5.fc11.i586 and the directory under /usr/lib is also aspell-0.60 but no dictionaries within. If the aspell on your system is later yum does not think so on my machine. I am boggled by the idea that kde has its own separate repository for f11. What would that be. I installed kde through the fedora repos so I would expect all kde updates would come from fedora repos. kde-fedora is where packages are built for kde and go through a testing phase. It's a bit like running a stable f11 with a rawhide kde, except that you can choose which level you want to work at. I have one system that has both the unstable and unstable-testing enabled. Packages that behave well and cause ew problems go into the main fedora repo shortly after, so you are not missing anything. Can someone explain all this? Especially since aspell is not a particularly kde product. The kde-fedora repo has little to do with your aspell problem. As has been explained, the developer decided against putting a dictionary into the package. Now that may look nonsense to you, but to the rest of the world having an en-US dictionary installed is not helpful. :-) Any further testimony on this matter. Is it Bugzilla time or not? If you feel that the developer made a wrong decision, by all means tell him so in bugzilla, but as I said, think about the rest of us. As long as it is documented that you have to install dictionaries, and it is, I personally think that's OK. I don't actually remember doing it, but obviously I must have seen the documentation and done it, since it is working fine.

Wouldn't this be giving Microsoft an edge in gladness? First of all, Linux market share is a very difficult number to predict, but is fairly significant and nearly always underestimated. Not only is there not accurate method of acquiring the numbers data, but Linux runs on vastly more hardware than Microsoft Windows, and one copy of GNU/Linux (downloaded, bought in a store, given by a friend, etc.) can be shared so readily that attempting to count it would be fruitless: it could be one simple desktop installation, or shared among a class of 50-100 students, installed on thousands of a company's servers, or distributed even further. There is a brief article called Debunking the Linux-Windows market-share myth (linked below) written in 2003 by Nicholas Petreley that I suggest you read. It's old, but its reasons for such disparate numbers are still just as valid. Debunking the Linux-Windows market-share myth: http://linux.sys-con.com/node/32648 Secondly, even if this WERE a valid market share estimate, you're missing out on just how big 1% can really be. According to the CIA World Factbook estimate (linked below), there were approximately 1.02 billion users as of 2005. Including the 1.167% estimated growth rate per year (noted on the same webpage) and assuming that the number of users grows similarly, this extrapolates to about 1.24 billion internet users worldwide as of 2008-2009. 1% of this is 12.4 million people. That's more than the populations of most large cities and heck, even of many smaller countries! Factbook page: https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/countrytemplate_XX.html Microsoft has such a high market share because their software comes pre-installed with machines through most PC vendors and because it is unfortunately what many have learned to use computers with. It is nothing more than a defacto standard. GNU/Linux, indeed most F/OSS on the other hand, has been spread by advocacy, passed among friends, et al. We don't have more than 12 million users because we're defacto. Not by a long shot. We as a community have EARNED those 12-point-something million users through merit: because we're just that awesome at doing what we do! We *want* people to go and improve upon our code. We *want* people to share it with others. We *want* people to be productive. We *want* people to use their computers, not as dictated by their vendors or software companies, but _however_they_see_fit_.

F12 networkmanager, anyone else worried by this?
I've just noticed F12 is moving towards NetworkManager for system-wide connections. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/NetworkManagerSystemConnections In principle it's a good thing, but with Fedora 11 I'm still having NM problems on two completely different wireless chipsets (rt2500 and iwl3945) which still refuse to do DHCP, which has been an intermittent problem since I first started trying to use NM (say around Fedora 8). It is always blamed on bugs in the drivers, which may be the case, but NM has always seemed less tolerant of these kinds of problems than the old system-config-network approach. Particularly since both cards work properly once static IP has been set up. I'm also worried that when other problems (such as recent difficulties I had with SElinux policies preventing graphical login) occur they will be harder to fix as it seems more likely that NM will be affected by other issues, resulting in trying to fix problems without a network connection available. Is anyone able to reassure me that NM will finally work this time? -- imalone -- 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

RE: Linux on a Dell Studio Hybird, Problems ??
Well here it is guys, A fix from deep in the Google archives , nomodeset I have never heard of that one. noacpi, xdriver=vesa, etc. etc. didn't help. Is this a new one that just came out ? Finally got Fedora 11 installed and it is now updating. I just read a new post on Mail-List , Vista won't boot from grub. I guess that's another problem I will have to fix. I had no problem having GRUB boot vista in F9. Haven't tried since then, but basically I partitioned my drive with space for vista (so I didn't have to resize which takes forever) then installed Vista. After vista was up and running, I installed F9 and it put a grub entry in for windows that worked. There may have been a few issues but as I recall it worked well. You could also probably use the Vista boot loader and edit it to load grub if you just stick it on a partition instead of the MBR (/dev/sda1 or whichever is your boot partition instead of /dev/sda). -- 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

Not if it is stuck inside the kernel, kill -9 only kills things as they come out of the kernel. Indeed. I have a bug in the Intel video driver, tickled by running the foobillard game. The only solution is to reboot. I've reported it (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=510948) and someone else also reported a similar one (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=509598) but I've seen absolutely no feedback on either of these. Is no-one else running OpenGl apps under F11? Should I report this bug upstream? poc -- 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

Re: What is this .gvfs directory?
If you are using rsync then simply excluding .gvfs should do the trick nicely. Does rsync's '-x' option work in this case? I don't seem to have a mount handy to try. Yes.. the rsync case is fixed by excluding .gvfs as I said. Not tried the same with other apps that break eg tar. It isn't clear what should happen though to be honest - should an rsync of your home dir go off and rsync all the magic fake stuff ?
