[opensuse-factory] packages.sk
Hello, Spent some time debugging it, so I share my experience: I use a local http server as installation source for factory. After yesterday's sync I found, that installation sources are broken, packages.sk is not available. It turned out, that it's a symlink, and 'AllowSymLinks' is missing from my apache configuration. This brings up a few questions: - the symlink was here since May. Why did not cause it any problem earlier? - why do I need packages.sk at all, when my installation is English and / or Hungarian? This is a wasted 5 MB of RAM, especially on low RAM machines, which I test. Just checked, over 400MB of swap is used, while earlier alpha releases used under 300MB. The best was around Alpha3 from this point of view, if I recall well... Bye, CzP - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[opensuse-factory] package management in next alpha/10.3
Hi community, The next alpha6 of openSUSE 10.3 will contain lot of changes in the package management code. I will try to summarize what is new so you can help us testing. The integration can bring some regressions, so please test it and help us to fix the remaining bugs during the betas. What were the goals: * no more refresh and parsing during startup. * more compatibility with tools like yum and smart * more speed for the common use case: install a package Before ZYpp did not make difference between launching the sources and refreshing them. This was quite annoying, and turned into needing network access for any operation requiring launching the sources first, like deleting, adding, searching. How does it work now? * Repositories now have a unique (in your system) alias. * Adding a repository is just a matter of copying [a .repo file ][1] (like those provided by the build service) to /etc/zypp/repos.d directory. If you use zypper or YaST it will create them for you, and perform additional checks. * Download of metadata happens during refresh. Also in this operation a binary cache is created. * deleting a repository is just a matter of deleting its .repo file, or doing it via zypper/YaST (they take additional checks like vacuum the cache). * YaST was just adapted and is still WIP, so in some places the old semantics could be still used (like refreshing repos even if it is not needed). * The binary cache allow to start up zypper and install packages in a much faster way. Caching the metadata is slow. But you do it once per refresh, and the data is stored preparsed in the cache. This allows to launch small repos in fraction of a second, and big repos in seconds later. No more parsing files in each startup. * Before lot of memory was used because most of the GUI data (descriptions, etc) was read into memory. Now all attributes (except resolvable information, for which we need indexes) is loaded on demand from the cache. * refresh operation uses now much less memory. One one object is kept in memory at time while writing the cache. For the developers: * Lot of testcases. We can do more aggressive development without breaking basic stuff. * Lot of redesign, to be able to implement new features. * We build with cmake now You expect for the future (post 10.3): * Integrate search with the cache, so no need to launch the resolvables and loop for searching * solving some queries from the cache?

[opensuse-factory] libzypp: what to test on alpha6
Repository handling - Repositories can now be added either via yast, zypper or just copying a .repo file to /etc/zypp/repos.d - a .repo file added by hand could have more than one repository defined inside. - Mixing of hand repo operations with API repo operations in all combinations should succeed. We have testcases for this but still more can be find. We cover cases like, add a repo file with 2 repositories by hand, then delete one with zypper, and the other one should still be in the same file without loosing attributes. - Cache, cache size, adding and removing. adding repos, removing, adding (mixing hand operations with app operations), thousand times, the db size should not increase too much, neither stay constant (some things like names survive cache deletion because removing unused ones is a expensive operation ) Known to be somehow broken right now, but should be tested in the next alphas: - Media handling, this is the most broken part. - patches with scripts and delta rpms - Disk usage calculation (should) be broken. -- Duncan Mac-Vicar Prett Novell :: SUSE RD, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[opensuse-factory] when to refresh?
Hi guys. If you read already the news on package management, there are some open issues we would like to have feedback from you. As you may know, now all operations on repositories are splitted, so you can add a repository without downloading metadata. But at some point to operate on them you need valid metadata and a binary cache. An example: zypper sa http://foo bar zypper search moo zypper install cuack for the search, you need cache, for the cache you need metadata. Should ZYpper exit and tell the user to refresh, or should it ask the user whether to refresh without exiting? In the case of YaST, should it download and refresh when adding the repos in inst_source, or should it do it during startup of the package selector? -- Duncan Mac-Vicar Prett Novell :: SUSE RD, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Should ZYpper exit and tell the user to refresh, or should it ask the user whether to refresh without exiting? hrmmm.. I think neither of those.. why ask if it knows that a refresh is needed ? zypper search foobar shlould IMHO automatically refresh if **and only if** there is no metadata,and hence no cache. In the case of YaST, should it download and refresh when adding the repos in inst_source, or should it do it during startup of the package selector? During the startup of the package selector, the user may just want to add a source to install packages later. ;) signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
[opensuse-factory] Re: [softwaremgmt] when to refresh?
Den Thursday 19 July 2007 17:51:39 skrev Duncan Mac-Vicar Prett: zypper sa http://foo bar Maybe zypper should ask already at this point: Repository added succesfully. Do you wish to download metadata (xx MB) now ? y/n? zypper search moo zypper install cuack for the search, you need cache, for the cache you need metadata. Should ZYpper exit and tell the user to refresh, or should it ask the user whether to refresh without exiting? Better to ask. In the case of YaST, should it download and refresh when adding the repos in inst_source, or should it do it during startup of the package selector? Could we have it ask Download repository metadata now? after adding repo in yast? Perhaps even with an estimated size of the download. If people select no, then it must do it on startup later. Personally I think it's more natural and intuitive that the metadata is downloaded when the repo is added. But of course most other package managers separate metadata download and repo adding completely. However to me the important thing is not so much when it's done, but mostly that the user gets clear information about what's happening when it's done. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I guess having to throw away the CDs and not having deltas available is a big hit, but you seem to have no bandwidth problems :) For uploads, I have no known limit, apart from the maximum outbound bandwidth, and I'd have probably seeded more if I hadn't restricted it to 10KB/s. However, in common with almost all UK ISPs, my downloads are capped[0]. My ISP is actually pretty generous and allow a download of 60GB per rolling 30 day period before they restricted the download rate to little more than dial-up speeds. Other UK users aren't going to be quite so lucky. The only change this will make for me is to remove the need for further development of makeSUSEdvd, since there's almost no need for it any more[1]. [0] They don't call it a cap, preferring to hide it under fair usage terms allowing them to claim they provide an unlimited service. Anyway, that's all beside the point, and totally OT, so I'll shut up about that now before I start ranting.

Well, as a little feedback, I will miss them, since they allowed me to have a completely OSS system without having to go through and de-select non-OSS packages. A good point about not having them is that now there is no need to try and figure out which package goes on which disc, and it sort-of fixed bug #284979 :) Regards, David Bolt -- Member of Team Acorn checking nodes at 100 Mnodes/s: www.distributed.net RISC OS 3.11 | SUSE 10.0 32bit | SUSE 10.1 32bit | openSUSE 10.2 32bit RISC OS 3.6 | SUSE 10.0 64bit | SUSE 10.1 64bit | openSUSE 10.2 64bit TOS 4.02 | SUSE 9.3 32bit | | openSUSE 10.3a5 32bit - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks Ken; However, is there a normal FTP or other way to get the DVD short of Bit Torrent. That is because I seem to only get a download speed of 6.3k off of a DSL 350K line. The last DVD (Alpha 5) took about 2 full days. I just tried Alpha 6 and it was just as slow. Anyone have a clue? Your been there since morning implies you are having the same problem. No. Downloaded the DVD delta via ftp this morning in about 1 1/2 hours. Took 2.5 hours for the applydeltaiso to run and I'm now going through the upgrade. I have tried bittorrent many times in the past and every time it was dead slow so I gave up on it and will only use ftp from here on out. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
