i'm pretty sure the requirements for freeze pushes are also at least that you 
must know it builds and works perfectly, on top of that it usually needs to be 
only bugfixes, or due to client/server changes that it is required...

plz add more info to this request

I upgraded it in svn to 0.1.1 in Dec. 2011, but it either didn't build or I

Agreed.  Go ahead and write a patch! :-)

Sorry, but my perl knowledge is very limited.  Looking through the
code, I can usually figure out what it's doing,  I was able to
create the patch that simply added the --cipher option to the existing
code in diskdrake, but altering the dialog to add selection of which
cipher to use, would probably take me a very long time.

You should probably open an enhancement bug report, requesting the
change, that can then be assigned to the diskdrake maintainer.

Btw, I had no idea that luks encryption was compatible with truecrypt.
Thanks for that info.

I am a packager, but I have never been able to attend any of the meetings

 Well, it may not that important, but it helps team building.

I also noticed two of the php subpackages adding the apache user in %post.

[Mageia-dev] installing minimal is not really that minimal

[Maarten Vanraes]

i did a network install

and choose 'custom', then deselected everything, pressed next

i got to the next menu of installation and left these to default:

 - no X
 - no suggestions
 - basic doc still on
 - truly minimal was off

but, i ended up with x libraries, fonts, etc...

so i dug a bit deeper as to why and looked at the ddebug.log file:

afaict dracut seems to require plymouth, and mageia-gfxboot-theme seems to be 
there no matter what option i choose from the summary, it seems it was already 
installed before the summary.


thing is, without a full kickstart (which i don't want to, i'd like to keep 
doing partitioning manually, but kickstart seems not to do the interactive 
requests), i can't really make a minimal system to begin with...

for this release, if at all possible, i'd still like to get a bit smaller for 
minimal setups, and like to present a nongraphic grub by default when X is 
unselected, and also have no need for gfxboot or plymouth when i don't have a 
graphic grub (even though this isn't the same)

furthermore, if i'm installing without X the default runlevel target seems to 
still be the graphic one, and not the multi-user one...

perhaps it's possible to have this as alternatives or something? which could 
be set by the CAT_X thingie? one installing one package and the other 
installing the other package?

All modules have been submitted. A few failed, if someone could look at
those? The easy failures I tried to fix. I'll also try and look at them
tomorrow, but likely need help.




Also enhanced my mga-gnome script to:
1. Allow limiting the modules (to just GNOME Core+Apps)
2. Allow sorting the 'still to be built' according to predefined order

GNOME has "jhbuild", this has a list subcommand which gives you the
order in which packages need to be built. That output can be used by
mga-gnome to limit it to GNOME Core&Apps  + sort it according to
jhbuild.

meaning:
  mga-gnome -l ~/.packages packages --sort ~/.packages --diff --version

 -l limits it to just the upstream names from a file
 --sort sorts it according to where in the file the upstream name
appears

Sorry, thought that was obvious as we follow ESR branch and firefox
10.0.3esr was pushed before, and ESR releases are bugfix/security-only.

But will provide proper reasons next time.

As used in the context of systemd just a general mechanism for tracking
processes. In the olden days, a service could exec other binaries quite
happily. Killing the primary pid of the service meant that any other
binaries launched were not necessarily killed. This mean that the
service needed to implement it's own accounting and tracking system and
there was no way to properly track to what service a given processes
belongs.

Now with cgroups, it's possible to fully track all the processes started
by a given service and kill each of them properly when stopping the service.

In addition it's also possible to identify to which service a given
process belongs. e.g. if something is spinning out of control you can
see it in top and then trace it back to the service itself.

There are numerous other things that can be done with cgroups such as
imposing various limits on a given service (and any subsequent processes
it spawns).


Overall this is an accounting mechanism that is something very much
baked into systemd. It's an integral part of it. It's not something we
could simply "turn off" on desktops vs. servers.


However, this isn't really the right place to discuss this topic.

Re: [Mageia-dev] Mageia ARM on Raspberry Pi (David Sj?lin)

[brett]

Sorry for the double post - n00b to the dev-list here!

I am among those to receive one of the first batch or two of raspberry 
pi devices.
I would be happy to help with testing as I would LOVE to be able to use 
Mageia on the device (as well as on a smartphone!)


It seems that the ARM port has been rather inactive over the past year, 
though?

You have not understand, im saying that is not possible to build the
doc stuff from wpa_supplicant.
I still didnt look into the mageia wpa_supplicant spec but if you
build it without issues its because you have not set to build doc
files, and thats form where the problem comes.

If you want to build docs you just need to enter in directory
doc/docbook  and run make.

Re: [Mageia-dev] Mageia-dev Digest, Vol 19, Issue 116

[Brett]

I have a raspberry pi ordered and would be willing to help with testing. Seems 
like the ARM port of Mageia has been inactive for a while?

Ping - any ideas anyone? - this is driving me nuts!

Just confirmation that it WFM would be a help.

This is also after a re-install of Cauldron, but my configuration is as

[Mageia-dev] texlive missing files/apps in Mageia

Hi,

Today i have tried to package an updated wpa_supplicant (from git) and
was not possible due to missing texlive features.

In mandriva i used to package wpa_supplicant without any problem and i
see that texlive packaging is rather different in Mageia, but see the
output to see what im talking about:

[Mageia-dev] Tonight's meeting

[Anne nicolas]

Hi there

We will have our meeting as usual. Topics will be all focused on
Mageia 2 release. It would be nice to have triage team, QA and as many
packagers as possible and especially the one in charge of main
softwares (base system, KDE, GNOME...)

- freeze push reminder and release freeze
- bug tracking (release_blocker bugs)
- security updates before final release
- QA tests for upgrade

Cheers

A big thank you to cleaning up the installer. This bootloader thing was

I don't know the heart of the installer, but feel we should do :

Agree. Only possible problem is enforcement of UTF-8 in configuration
files. I don't think that'll cause problems and even if so, easily
fixed.

Please see thread from earlier today on this topic.

If needed I can do the complicated job of cherry picking most of the
patches instead if the version bump scares people :)



I must say I miss here some knowledge to take this decision and I'd like
some other opinions on this




Reading the changes in git, I see enough fixes that I also think we 
need, so I'd say lets push it as it would otherwise be mostly a systemd 
v44 disguised as a v43  with a lot of patches.

Thanks for the clarification, and was a very good improvement :)

But i think it would be better to have in diskdrake some option
allowing the user to choose the cypher, since the default cypher used
in cryptsetup and in other apps that support luks, is cbc, and this
way diskdrake is putting it incompatible with remaning apps that
support luks.

This way the user could be informed about whats happening and also
would have a choice, that would be great and would in fact increase
diskdrake popularity.
