setting up dictd-server on local machine
Hello, can anyone kindly point me in the right direction in setting up dictd-server. I am experienced with Linux but new to Fedora and SELinux. I have installed the package: dnf install dictd-service Went through the docs: /usr/share/doc/dictd-server/INSTALL Added a dictd config file: /etc/dictd.conf Now, I'm a bit confused. There are several example config files in the doc directory, plus a folder of SELinux examples. I haven't allowed access in the dictd.conf file since I'm only going to run on a local machine. When I attempt to start with systemctl: /bin/systemctl status dictd.service I get the following error: ● dictd.service - Dictd Dictionary Server Daemon Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/dictd.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Fri 2016-12-09 00:09:12 EST; 41s ago Process: 2493 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/dictd --listen-to 127.0.0.1 (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Main PID: 2494 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Dec 09 00:09:12 localhost.localdomain systemd[1]: Starting Dictd Dictionary Server Daemon...

I spent quite a bit of time going through my .vimrc file to try to find which setting "fixed" the problem. Apparently, an empty file would have done the trick... such a waste of time. :) A more intuitive behavior would be for the user's settings to be merged with the defaults.

save dialog, doc name field is highlighted, but typing goes into search field
Can anyone reproduce this bug? I can reproduce it easily 100% of the time in gedit and Firefox, presumably in anything using GtkFileChooser. The trick seems to be, before typing the name you want to save as, to first pick a location. If you don't change the default location the problem doesn't happen for me. There's a screencast attached to the bug that shows what I'm seeing, I just sorta want a sanity check.

It applies specifically to an Epson WP-4530 all-in-one. In order to make the scanner work, there is a file in /etc/sane.d named dll.conf. That file is a list of all kinds of scanners, and in that list is epson and #epson2. put a # in front of epson and remove the # in front of epson2. My information says do this if the /printer/scanner is on your lan. Also in /etc/sane.d net autodiscovery should be uncommented.

Make yourself a keypair with "ssh-keygen" on your laptop, and add the public half to serverB and serverC's .ssh/authorized_keys files. Start an ssh-agent on your laptop and add your key to it. Then you won't be troubled with passwords again. (And you can _revoke_ password access to servers B and C, securing them further.) Anyway, try the abve and let us know where you end up.

Copying the screen.xterm-256color terminfo entry to the remote system

It has messed up multiple commands for me for a long time. Have reported some of them, have opened threads on mailing-lists, but it hasn't lead to anything. $ cd some-srpms-dir $ dnf builddep foo $ dnf builddep foo It doesn't complete anything. No matter how often I press TAB. Compared with: $ yum-builddep foo It queries the RPM database, which is something I don't want, and only then shows multiple pages of local files and installed packages, asking me to page through them, so I may add refine my completion request. If I uninstall bash-completion package, at least both commands behave the same, and "dnf builddep ..." becomes usable again. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org

Another (annoying) thing to do on all new system witch I install and use. Probably it would be better that this feature was disabled by default in a next update. What is your opinion?

A few other packages require (and fewer still recommend) bash-completion but none of them is installed by default and none of them is the default package manager in Fedora :) -- Ahmad Samir ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org

Hi, yes, setting `install_weak_deps=0` in dnf.conf is the way to never pull in weak dependencies. If don;t like just `bash-completion` package you can have `exclude=bash-completion` in dnf.conf. Otherwise I see nothing wrong with DNF recommending bash-completion as it improves UX but is not hard dependency.

F25: vim-enhanced.8.0.118-1: unwanted behavior
After last update of vim, from 7.x to 8.x I have found an unwanted and annoying behavior. If open some file with vim in gnome-terminal and select some text, vim goto in visual mode and fast copy/paste (select and click with middle mouse button) do not work anymore. This behavior also do not allow anymore to select some text of file opened with vim and copy it with right click. If I use "vim -C" this "feature" is disable, bur I do not know what is also disable with '-C' option. I think this is a bug, I must fill a bugzilla?
