Comment:

 Replying to [ticket:102 cyberpear]:
  I'd like to become a proventester.  I've read
 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/JoinProvenTesters and
 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Proven_tester and
 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Critical_Path_Packages

 Hi cyberpear,

 Glad to see you as a proven testers candidate. Since you've read the
 proven tester instructions, can you please confirm that you ...

  * 1. have read and understand the instructions, and intend to follow the
 instructions when testing Fedora critical path updates
  * 2. understand how to enable the update-testing repository
  * 3. are familiar with providing test feedback using either the Bodhi web
 interface, or the fedora-easy-karma utility

 Feel free to discuss with me if you have any questions or concerns. Once
 you're clear on the process, please reply to this ticket, I'll then
 sponsor you into the proventesters group. Thanks a lot for volunteering.

 Have a nice day! ( ̄︶ ̄)y

[urgent] libsndfile security update needs 2 proventesters

2010-07-12 Thread Michel Alexandre Salim
Hi folks,

libsndfile for EL-5 has had a security vulnerability for many months,
and now that it is actively maintained again, unfortunately hit the
Bodhi proventester bottleneck (see forwarded announcement below)

-- Forwarded message --
From: Luke Macken lmac...@redhat.com
Subject: Bodhi 0.7.5 release

[...]
Critical path package[0] updates now require positive karma from two
proventesters[1], and a single +1 from one other community member.
[...]

We need two proventesters to approve this update:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/libsndfile-1.0.17-3.el5

The patch applied is trivial (see the first linked bug report in the
update request, and feel free to check out the libsndfile package and
verify that the patch is applied to the EL-5 branch).

Thanks,

   6. Open discussionyour topic here
There's one issue that needs to be discussed and resolved and that's 
maintainers ignoring their packaging responsibility by not being the 
bridge between upstream and bugzilla refusing to resolve outstanding 
bugs and forcing reporters to file bugs against upstream bugzilla(s) 
trac system and what not.

This behaviour causes serious confusion and rift in the community and 
disrupts the QA workflow.

 Thers an ongoing thread on devel list.

There have been many threads on the development list through out several 
release cycles about this issue.

All those thread led nowhere and all those thread had all little to no 
input from the QA community and reporters/triagers in general.
( FYI. Not all reporters are subscribed to the development list as are 
not all developers/maintainers subscribed to the test list. )
Why should this be any different now?

This issue needs to be raised to FESCO with a firm stance from the QA 
community on the issue.

dynamic configuration of wired network interfaces looks quite broken

2010-07-12 Thread Michal Jaegermann
Before I will waste more time on that does anybody know what broke
dhclient on _wired_ interfaces?

I was away for quite a while now and upon return I found that although
I can still use DHCP to configure wireless interfaces of my laptops
this is totally different story for _wired_ ones.  In the first case I
see in logs:

 dhclient[2304]: DHCPDISCOVER on ath0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 20
 dhclient[2304]: DHCPOFFER from 192.168.xx.yy
 dhclient[2304]: DHCPREQUEST on ath0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67
 dhclient[2304]: DHCPACK from 192.168.xx.yy

and an interfaces comes up.  With a wired one I get:

 dhclient[2135]: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 4
 dhclient[2135]: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 6
 dhclient[2135]: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 12
 dhclient[2135]: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 13
 dhclient[2135]: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 14
 dhclient[2135]: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 12
 dhclient[2135]: No DHCPOFFERS received.

and no networking.  This happens with my test rawhide installation,
both before and after I applied a big pile of pending updates, and
with Fedora 12 installations with all available updates applied.

In all cases dhclient here talks to the same DHCP server, which
happens to be some version of dnsmasq running on a WRTG router, and on
the same network but only through different network interfaces.  My
test machine does not have a wireless one but only a wired which up to
now was configured to use DHCP, and which I would prefer to keep that
way for various reasons, so you can see the trouble.

Asigning static IPs on wired interfaces makes a network to go alive
again but this is quite bad option for laptops which travel from time
to time with foreign networks not always wireless and a dynamic
configuration should work anyway.  There is still an option of
wireless breaking the same way on the next update.  Luckily my other
not running Feodra wired DHCP clients, like a DHCP _requiring_
network interface of my printer - for example, still work just fine as
before (and this shows that my DHCP server in use is fine).

This does not look as a directly dhclient issue as reverting that to
older version did not change anything (and it seems that I went back
far enough).  Also a status of selinux, on which I practically gave up
anyway, is irrelevant.  A search through bugzilla, quite possibly as
unreliable as usual, also did not make me much wiser.  My suspicion
would be some other library doing some creative things with IPv6 but
I do not have a smoking gun.  I would file a bugzilla report but I
have not a clue against what.  Maybe this is already a well know
problem?   Hm, iptables?  I did not try that yet.

Again - the breakage may show up any time in the last two months and
I had no way to notice it but only now.

  Michal

Luke, I really think turning on critpath requirements for everything in
the world is going to prove to be a problem. I certainly never expected
this to hit EPEL, AFAIK Fedora QA and FESCo have no actual power to
commit to this policy for EPEL. How hard would it be to just disable
this requirement again for EPEL at least?

Re: reporting bugs upstream : nothing on the wiki?

2010-07-12 Thread Jóhann B. Guðmundsson
  It's packager/maintainer duty to be the bridge between upstream 
bugzilla and ours.

It cant be expected nor required of either triagers and or reporters to 
create account and familiar themselves with upstream bugzilla and 
procedures and to even suggest that is simply ludicrous.

Those packagers that are simply to lazy to obey this should move to 
another distro or their component be removed from bugzilla to avoid 
unnecessary confusion, burden and what not on the whole QA community.

FESCO needs to make it mandatory requirements of packagers to be that 
bridge for the components they maintain.

 I'm sure your motives are pure :-). I just don't think what you are 
 proposing is realistic.

It's a topic that's currently under discussion on -devel. In practice
I'd say it varies. Some reporters certainly are willing to make good
upstream reports. Some aren't, indeed, but I think Ankur's probably
right that we can add value to the ecosystem (urgh, excuse me while I
shoot myself for that one) by providing good instructions for those who
_are_ willing to go the extra mile.

Re: dynamic configuration of wired network interfaces looks quite broken (looks like solved)

2010-07-12 Thread cornel panceac

 Still I think that I figured it out.  It appears that a powered
 switch on my network decided to misbehave.  After resetting it I
 started to see wired interfaces dynamically configured again.  A
 mystery remains how my printer got its IP number.  It is hanging
 from the same switch.  Really weird ...


could be only certain port in the switch. tried another? (like switch
between printer's and computer's)
