Re: Copr hosting?

Dear Michael,

Thanks for the reply. Indeed there are bugs in shotwell 0.20.2-2 that
have been solved upstream. I guess those fixes are in Fedora 22 already,
not so in Fedora 21. I don't mind publishing something once I'm
satisfied.

Yes they do.  My question is, does the f22 installer know how to install 
into a btrfs subvol?  What is the procedure?  Do I need to create the new 
root22 subvol before running the installer?

[birger]

You can destroy the old subvol in anaconda and install to a brand new one. Or 
install to a new one and keep the old until you know you can delete it. Yes, 
you can keep /home.

Of course a backup is always wise.

Re: partitioning new machine

[birger]

With btrfs you create subvolumes within the same master volume.
The default is to have separate subvolumes for / and /home.

When doing a new install you can create a new / with a new subvolume
name within the same btrfs file system. rootfs-22 instead of just
root for example. That way you can mount your old / as a subdirectory
while moving over all your config to the new /, and you can keep
the same /home. When you are done, delete the old / subvolume
and you get your space back without any repartitioning.

look at the subvol=XXX in /etc/fstab

If you want to back up and restore individual subvolumes, look at the
btrfs send and btrfs receive commands.

It did in some cases. However, the tools haven't kept up. Logwatch has
effectively been a dead project for a decade, and epylog, designed as a
more modern, smarter replacement, hasn't seen motion for years either.

Additionally, mail-based reporting like this works fine for a handful
of servers, but at least in my experience does not scale to dozens, let
alone the hundreds a Linux sysadmin may be asked to manage these days.

And, for home use, there's the problem that sending mail from a
consumer broadband provider's network is unlikely to work without
special configuration, and may be discarded as spam even then.

Unlike say Debian,  Fedora does not default to running services just
because a package is installed.  There are very few exceptions to that
guideline and it has to be explicitly approved by the packaging committee.
The default services are listed here.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Starting_services_by_default

If you find anything else running by default, that is a bug.

I always create separate / & /home partitions.. I went from 30GB to 50GB
for "/", 30 was getting 75% full after a while.. I always seem to be
adding things:)

I have 1 /home and 4 separate '/" partitions for different OSes..

partitioning new machine

[Neal Becker]

Actually, re-partioning old machine.

Last time, I setup 1 big 1TB btrfs partition.  I'd like to do a re-install 
for f22, and I'm wishing now I had my home on it's own partition - since now 
I need to backup and restore my home (about 165GB).

Or perhaps there is another way?  shrink the 1TB btrfs partition, create a 
new one for /home, and copy?  How could I do that, and could I do it online, 
or only from some rescue USB? (/home is on the same single partition as /).

For a test, I made a little script fixsystemctl in /etc/cron.hourly

chksystemctl=`systemctl --state=failed | grep failed | cut -f 2 -d\  `
if [ -n "$chksystemctl" ] ; then
date >>/var/log/chksystemctl
echo $chksystemctl >>/var/log/chksystemctl
systemctl restart $chksystemctl
fi

Been running it on 20 machines for about 24 hours, and generally each 
machine has a couple of items in the file, but a few still had the file empty.

Not if the binary files get corrupted. Most of the time,
you can't even boot when that happens :-(

Well, system mail daemon did that job pretty well.

That is a deceptive similarity.  I find journalctl output too verbose at
times.  Also it can just be a lot in terms of quantity (how far back the
logs go).  Under such circumstances, using the "old" methods can be bit
of a chore.

One would then say filter the output of journalctl (or rotate the
journal)!  But the documentation for that is in such a terrible state,
as in very hard to comprehend for someone not familiar with internal
details, it's almost funny.  See this message for a rather egregious
example:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.redhat.fedora.general/440292/focus=440647

The rest of the thread is also very instructive.

One of these days if I find some time, I'll file a bug report for
documentation.  But if someone else wants to, please go ahead.

Cheers,

So, something's wrong with Fedora's shotwell package, and instead of
fix it you want to introduce a repository to publish inofficial packages?

It would be much more interesting and helpful to consider becoming
a co-maintainer of shotwell at Fedora. There are many packages where
the existing maintainer doesn't reject help/contributions.

You can still use "grep/awk/sed/..." :-)
