fedora uses libbotan 1.8.2 while debian unstable is using 1.8.5. I will
try what you suggest. Thanks.



Recently I have updated botan for Fedora to 1.8.6. The package is 
currently in updates-testing. Try


yum --enablerepo=updates-testing install botan

This is a known bug in the Botan cryptography library that we use.  I
don't know exactly which version fixed the bug, but it *has* been
fixed; try to get a newer version of libbotan.

[Monotone-devel] mtn and superuser on Fedora 11

2009-08-11 Thread Nicolas Ruiz
Apologies in advance if this had already been covered, but I couldn't
find anything related to this.

I use mtn to keep track of changes in the /etc directory (Linux). Since
there are plenty of files that are not world-readable I have to run mtn
as root (or under sudo). This works well under Debian unstable, but I'm
having problems getting it to work in Fedora 11.

For the record, on both distributions I'm using monotone 0.44 (base
revision: 7a4832143b3146ca89f5cb91e0e571d05e29d4b9)

On Fedora mtn gets stuck during commit or generating the keys. Under
strace I get (again, executing commit or genkey) to:

close(11)   = 0
lstat64("/proc/kmsg", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0400, st_size=0, ...}) = 0
open("/proc/kmsg", O_RDONLY|O_NOCTTY)   = 11
read(11,

and stays there. I had left mtn hang there for at least 24 hours while
doing other work and it doesn't complete.

I tried disabling SELinux, just in case, and it has no effect.

I also tried --ssh-sign yes|no|only, no effect.

Running with --debug does not give any useful info.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance
nicolas
