Subject: [Mageia-dev] Queation on importing mdv2010.2 packages

Hi.
I am browsing trough the bugzilla, looking for what people want to have 
package, and I notice they are missing some packages that exists in mdv.
but i am unsure on what to do with the mkrel when importing mdv packages. Some 
of the packages may have, say %mkrel 4.
Do I increase the mkrel, or should I reset it to 1 when importing and pushing 
to Cauldron?

yes you can. you will need an up to date parrot for this.

 I think also the ppa-purge tool is quite useful (I've not used it
 myself, just read instructions of it's use) which can aid the purging
 of a given PPA's packages and the installation of the offical packages
 needed to solve any dependency holes left behind from uninstalling

I've used it for downgrade from gnome-shell to gnome 2.32.

It works as well as possible, anything was breaked.

 But yes, I got your point, and I agree with it. Perhaps instead of full
 'PPAs' it would be possible to have some sort of iurt-powered public
 repositories. For example, http://people/~user dirs with 'upload'

 recompiled and stored in http://people.../~user/{i586,x86_64,arm} when done,
 with full hdlists.
This solutions means more and more servers :/

 In case it's relevant - the i586 package is on the mirrors. It's only
 x86-64 that's missing.
 
 That's because spec states:

 Hello to everyone,

 I'm sure there's someone among you who wants to help Mageia but hasn't
 found yet the good way to do it. Today is your lucky day, because
 there's a job that's available and can be really useful and interesting:
 coordinating the packagers mentoring program.

 You know that one key point of success for Mageia is in the ability to
 welcome new packagers. The better we will be at it, the better the
 distro will be. The packagers mentoring program has been created for
 that reason and several packagers have been or are being mentored. But
 we have some difficulty knowing who is being mentored by who and who
 hasn't found a mentor. And we need also to find more mentors and more
 apprentices.

 During a packagers weekly meeting, misc invited us to read the following
 article about mentoring programs in open-source projects:
 http://blogs.gnome.org/bolsh/2011/05/31/effective-mentoring-programs/

 I invite those who haven't read it yet, to read it. I'll quote one of the
 mentoring best practices that were given: In bigger projects, keeping
 track of who is a mentor, and who is mentoring who, and inviting new
 mentors, and ensuring that no-one falls through the cracks when a mentor
 gets too busy, is a job of itself.

 I'm looking for someone who could fill that job.

 Description of the job:

 - keep track of:
 -- who's being mentored by who, how well it's going
 -- who needs a mentor and hasn't found one yet (this is one of the most
 important parts: no volunteer must be forgotten, volunteers are too
 precious !)
 -- who can mentor more apprentices (and sometimes convince packagers to
 become mentors or accept one more apprentice)

 - be available for questions from apprentices or mentors, by mail, and if
 possible, to be present on the IRC channel #mageia-mentoring on freenode

 - help mentors with gathering junior tasks (bugzilla is a never empty
 reserve that can be used for that. Maybe ask the bug triage team to help
 identify such tasks. Maybe a junior task keyword in bugzilla would do
 the trick)
 -- small bugs to fix
 -- new small packages to import in the distribution
 -- backports

 - promote mentoring (empower users into contributers. Working with the
 marketing team would be great I think):
 -- make the mentoring program known (MLs, forums, web, etc.)
 -- look for new apprentices
 -- look for new mentors

 Some useful skills:
 - be autonomous (ie no need to check that you're doing the work)
 - good written english (communication is very important in this job)
 - knowledge about packaging is a plus but not mandatory (the key aspects
 can be taught to you)
 - being or having been a mentor, or having been mentored would be a plus,
 but not mandatory

 More information about the job:
 - does not require a big amount of work, but real committment to the task
 and regularity
 - remember that you have a coordination role, not an authoritative role.
 The difference in that is that you're not here to give orders but to
 facilitate the mentoring program.
 - you don't have to be alone to do this job if it's too much for one
 person: you can find other helpful people wanting to help you if needed
 and rely on the other teams (but finding them *is* part of your job ;)
 ).
 -  this job offer concerns everything that revolves around the
 mentoring of new packagers, but if it's successful maybe other teams can
 follow the same approach (i18n, QA, etc... ).
 -  depending on your level of confidence, experience and will, you could
 be helped in your work. Maybe someone from the council can supervise and
 help you at least at the beginning; or, if no one steps up, I can help
 you bootstrap and organize your new job.

 So, who's in?

 Samuel Verschelde

 I offer my candidacy. I was mentored by shikamaru and i'm a mandriva
 packager since 2009 and a mageia packager since the start.
 My english level is pretty good and i'm pretty sociable.

 
 Hi,
 
 As explained on IRC yesterday, your candidacy is interesting, but you have 
 already so many other engagements that I would prefer someone with more 
 availability :) So keep on the good work where you're already committed :)
 
 Best regards
 
 Samuel Verschelde
!no problem, thanks!

 OK,

 Mageia 1 is approaching quickly and we need to get our process in place

 and it looks like we'll want to cutoff the on the iso  updates at the
 end of this week, so we need a process in place to release post-iso updates.

 ref: http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=security

 As I see it, initially we need, in no particular order:

 1) a means to build updates for the release (iurt setup for mga1?)
 2) a means to publish updates (mail list, web page)
 3) a means to manage/track the updates (bugzilla?)
 4) work out/publish the process so we all know how it works

 And then of course we need people to be aware of vulnerabilities as they
 are exposed. For now, we'll have be be slightly trailing until we can
 show a history of releasing updates and hopefully gain access to the
 closed list to get access to embargoed issues. Once that happens we will
 possibly need additional infrastructure changes to keep the work
 non-public before the embargo date.

 osvdb has a nice email aggregator that sends all the distro update
 announcements, and the oss-security list has many of the CVE requests.
 Unfortunately, my personal time hasn't allowed much more than a quick
 read as they go by :/ I know many of you have been doing security
 related bug reports and updates, which is great, thank-you. If anyone
 wants to take a larger role in managing the process I'm more than happy
 to let that happen. While I have experience, the time I'm able to commit
 is less than helpful.

 Comments, volunteers?

 Hi list,
 
 Right now I'm customizing my own menu (without menu editor).  I'm
 implementing our own menu structure, so I followed XDG menu specs to
 create our own menu.
 
 However, I found that the menu layout attributes, like show_empty,
 inline, ... etc., seemed to be ignored.
 
 AFAIK, the XDG menu spec implementation should be done by distribution
 vendors.  If yes, would anyone please tell me if Mageia (or even
 Mandriva) fully follows the XDG menu spec?  Or, what should I do to
 make the show_empty, inline work?
 
 
 Thanks,

Mageia IS NOT Mandriva. It's important to precise it, i think.

This library has been obsolete for years now, and I'm not sure at all
there is any interesting app still needing it. I'd really recommend
trying hard to keep glib 1.2 away from the repository to avoid having
really old and obsolete packages that noone will use anyway. This
would probably save some maintainance time to some people.

I'm enterely agree with you, glib 1.2 is obsoletes and useless.


Re: [Mageia-dev] Importing RPM Spec File Syntax

2011-01-15 Thread Cazzaniga Sandro
Le 15/01/2011 11:08, Remy CLOUARD a écrit :
 Here’s a proposal:
 Patches must be named in a very explicit manner to make it very clear to
 what version it was originally applied. To that end, a patch needs to
 follow the convention of
 [package_name]-[version]-[description].patch:
 
   * [package_name] is the name of the package it applies against, such
   as 'shadow-utils' or 'gnupg'
   * [version] is the version of the program this patch was developed
   against, such as 1.0. The name of the patch should not change, even
   when it is rediffed, because the version allow to see in a blink since
   when this patch has been there. If you happen to see a patch that does
   not apply anymore, and rediff it, ask the package maintainer if it has
   been sent upstream, and why it hasn’t been merged, and send it
   upstream if you think it should be merged.
   * [description] is a short description of the patch's purpose.
 
 Example: foo-1.0-fix-str-fmt.patch for a patch that fixes string format
 errors
 
I'm okay for naming patches as you say. It's clean and clear, we
understand well what a mistake they correspond.

 for Mageia. As we said during our first meeting, the idea is to avoid
 NIH syndrome and reuse what already exists.
 
 Here is a list of some of Mandriva policies for review. I tried to
 organize them in sections, some of them might be rather incomplete, or
 outdated. Please announce which subsection you’re going to proofread,
 that will allow us to get through them faster (2 or 3 people max per
 page should be good)
 
 As for the process, I would be in favor of creating one thread per
 policy review, because that could help people having knowledge in some
 area to sort out these mails and reply to them specifically.
 
 Some of these policies have already been discussed in previous threads,
 in that case we shouldn’t create a new one.
 
 New packagers might want to take a look at some of these policies
 too, it will help you getting faster on par with the prerequisites to
 become a packager too.
 
 WARNING, long list coming.
 
 Licenses
 - Licensing policy
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Licensing_policy - this policy will have
   to be reviewed to match our mirroring layout, otherwise, it should
   also include allowed licenses (those can be retrieved with rpmlint -i)
 - Mandriva Linux Valid Licenses
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Mandriva_Linux_Valid_Licenses - seems
   outdated
 
 Common Packaging Practices
 - RPM Groups
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Development/Tasks/Packaging/Policies/GroupTag
   - there has been some discussions this evening about having more
   fine-grained groups. IMHO, I think we have already a lot of things to
   do to review packages for import, I think we should postpone this
   after the first release.
 - RPM specs file syntax
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/RPM_specs_file_syntax - maybe add a
   section about subpackages, where to put the %files section, use of
   spaces/tabs.
   tbh I just discovered this one while making this list.
 - Versioning scheme
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Distribution_specific_release_tag_policy
   - this one needs a bit of cleaning IMHO, there are quite some
   discussions inside the page, while these should happen in discussion.
   Some information might need to be adapted to Mageia (ie mdk-mga)
 - Preversions
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Development/Tasks/packaging/Policies/PreVersions
   - old, needs to be reworked (what about changesets in hg or git ?)
 - Post-Release Support Policy
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Policies/Support - This one needs to be
   adapted to match our mirroring structure (see the mirror layout thread
   and the mirror policy item below)
 - Freeze policy
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Policies/Freeze - draft
 - Maintainers Policy
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Development/Tasks/Packaging/Roles/Maintainer
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Policies/Maintainers_policy - this one is
   quite recent, and is still discussed, not sure we will follow this
   every convention mentionned here either.
 - XDG menu system policy
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/XDG_menu_system_policy
 - Charset
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Charset_policy - not sure we need to keep
   this one, should be UTF-8 by default (though C is the default on the
   mandriva cluster). Besides, translations aren’t in specs AFAIK
 - Alternatives policy
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Alternatives_policy - not sure we want to
   have a lot of packages with alternatives, I was always told these are
   a pain to maintain, shall we take this ?
 - Multiarch policy
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Multiarch_policy
 - SSL Certificates
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/SSL_certificates_policy
 - LSB
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Development/Howto/LSB_Package
 
 
 Subpackages Packaging Practices
 - Locales
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Packaging_%26_Localisation_policy
 - Libraries
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Libraries_policy - maybe add a section
   about header files for devel packages
 - Libtool archives (*.la) policy
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Libtool_archives_%28*.la%29_policy -
   maybe merge it into the library policy ?
 
 Language Specific Policies
 - Perl
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Perl_library_packaging_policy
 - Python
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Python_packaging_policy
   (draft)
 - Ruby
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Ruby_packaging_policy
   (draft too, some things need to be discussed too, ie naming
   conventions)
 - Java
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Native_Java_Packaging_Policy
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Java_Packaging_Policy
   (Do we need to merge these pages ?)
 - TCL
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Development/Tasks/Packaging/Policies/Tcl
 - OCaml
   http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Ocaml_library_packaging_policy
   (are there people interested in maintaining OCaml packages ? if yes,
   please add it on http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=packaging
 - Haskell
   

Re: [Mageia-dev] Downloading the .iso file: Hopefully BitTorrent not mandated...

2010-12-06 Thread Cazzaniga Sandro
Le 06/12/2010 17:26, Maurice Batey a e'crit :
 Mandriva has recently been showing their .iso file downloadable only
 via BitTorrent.

 That doesn't suit some people's situation.

 Will Mageia's .iso file be  downloadable by non-BitTorrent protocols
 (e.g. FTP)?

Maybe we can tell you when we will have iso ready ... We have others
problems for now.
