[yast-devel] Nicer logging lines for ruby code
by josef Reidinger 24 Sep '20

24 Sep '20

Hi, after our final drop of old testsuite nothing prevent to merge [1]. So now we will have in y2log also method names, so I hope easier grepping. Example how it changed: - 2018-05-28 13:10:29 <1> linux-vvcf.privatesite(12728) [Ruby] y2storage/dump_manager.rb:230 Devicegraph dump directory: /var/log/YaST2/storage - 2018-05-28 13:10:29 <1> linux-vvcf.privatesite(12728) [Ruby] y2storage/dump_manager.rb:264 Dumping Devicegraph to 01-probed + 2018-05-28 13:25:35 <1> linux-vvcf.privatesite(20263) [Ruby] y2storage/dump_manager.rb(lazy_init):230 Devicegraph dump directory: /var/log/YaST2/storage + 2018-05-28 13:25:35 <1> linux-vvcf.privatesite(20263) [Ruby] y2storage/dump_manager.rb(dump_internal):264 Dumping Devicegraph to 01-probed Of course we are not necessary limited to that change and we can change more as we need, so I welcome any feedback. One idea I have is to replace that "Ruby" component by real components e.g. by matching component and gettext domain. so in this case it can be "storage".

[yast-devel] Smaller disk footprint [Bug 1176767]
by Martin Vidner 21 Sep '20

21 Sep '20

https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1176767 Recently I was looking at https://cockpit-project.org/ and how it relates to YaST. One of the factors was the disk footprint: Cockpit takes up less than 10 MB. YaST takes up 258 MiB on disk. (counting just the base, not the actual config modules) Starting with a 2020-09-01 openSUSE Tumbleweed that already has Cockpit installed, these are the byte sizes of packages installed by "zypper install yast2" 218922718 glibc-locale 16627072 ruby2.7 9940016 ruby2.7-rubygem-nokogiri 3427518 hwinfo 3413184 libruby2_7-2_7 3310778 yast2-core 2589200 yast2 2279763 ruby2.7-rubygem-unf_ext 1378488 yast2-pkg-bindings 1179325 libyui-ncurses13 1095423 ruby2.7-rubygem-simpleidn 949088 libyui13 788911 libjemalloc2 721238 yast2-hardware-detection 686097 augeas-lenses 646032 yast2-ycp-ui-bindings 463280 yast2-ruby-bindings 360824 libxslt1 316728 yast2-perl-bindings 226562 augeas 167706 libx86emu3 129288 libyaml-0-2 129144 ruby2.7-rubygem-unf 115505 ruby2.7-rubygem-ruby-augeas 108310 ruby2.7-rubygem-fast_gettext 63522 ruby2.7-rubygem-cfa 62415 ruby2.7-rubygem-gem2rpm 51387 ruby2.7-rubygem-cheetah 47974 fdupes 38714 ruby-common 34725 perl-gettext 10762 ruby2.7-rubygem-abstract_method 3389 yast2-logs 84 ruby Now, glibc-locale is required by libyui-ncurses (based on bug 849255) but since 2 years ago a smaller subpackage exists, glibc-locale-base, which can be used as long as YaST runs in English only. Looking into another big dependency, ruby2.7-rubygem-nokogiri.rpm has 9.5 MiB out of which 8.8 MiB is /usr/lib64/ruby/gems/2.7.0/cache/nokogiri-1.10.10.gem, just a useless repackaging of the source gem. -- Martin Vidner, YaST Team http://en.opensuse.org/User:Mvidner

[yast-devel] A menu for the YaST Partitioner
by Ancor Gonzalez Sosa 21 Sep '20

21 Sep '20

Some time ago, we decided to make several changes in the Partitioner UI. Check this section (or the full document if you are interested enough) for more details: https://github.com/yast/yast-storage-ng/blob/master/doc/partitioner_ui.md#a… We are currently working on adding a new menu bar, but we have two decisions to take. We would like to have some feedback from everyone in the YaST Team and also from SUSE UX experts, so I'm sending this to both Ken and the yast-devel list. For those that are not that familiar with the current UI of the Partitioner, I added some kind of appendix at the end of this mail to refresh minds. First question: what approach should we follow for the menu bar? After some discussions, we have three proposals. I created three branches in the yast-storage-ng repository so you can play with them. For the less technical users (downloading the repo and running the demo may not be trivial), I'm open to create videos or have a video-call to show them in action. Menu proposal 1 https://github.com/ancorgs/yast-storage-ng/blob/menu_minimal/README.md Menu proposal 2 https://github.com/ancorgs/yast-storage-ng/blob/menu_classic/README.md Menu proposal 3 https://github.com/ancorgs/yast-storage-ng/blob/menu_explicit/README.md We have to decide on the general approach, not on every detail. Some entries could be relocated or renamed afterwards. If we decide to take proposal 1, then we are done. No second question. If we take 2 or 3, which both include options that are "contextual" to the device currently selected, we have another thing to decide... Second question: what to do with the menu-buttons below the tables? (check the appendix below if you don't know what are we talking about) Option 1. Remove them as all the functionality is already in the menus. Option 2. Keep them as they are. Option 3. Use simple buttons with only a small set of actions. If we choose option 3. Selecting a disk would only show "Edit" and "View Partitions". But not the options to create/clone partition tables (the menu bar should be used for that). Selecting a partition would show "Edit" and "Delete", but not resizing or moving. And so on. What's your view on the topic? Cheers. And now, the appendix about the current UI, only in case you need it: We offer many actions per each device (editing, resizing, deleting, etc.). For that we have menu-buttons right below all the Partitioner tables (there are too many actions, they don't fit as regular buttons). Not all the actions make sense for all kind of devices (for example, you cannot delete a hard disk or format an LVM volume group). So every time a new device is selected in the table, those menu-buttons change to only offer the actions that make sense for that type of device. In the System table that contains all the devices, there are also additional buttons for general actions like "Rescan Devices" or "Configure". They have never belonged there. In the tables of a particular technology (like RAID or Volume Management) there are buttons to add new devices of the corresponding type. Cheers again. -- Ancor González Sosa YaST Team at SUSE Software Solutions -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: yast-devel+owner(a)opensuse.org

The YaST Team keeps working in mid-term goals in several areas, specially AutoYaST and storage management. Let's take a look to the progress. - Several enhancements in the new MenuBar widget. - More steps to add a menu bar to the Partitioner. - New helpers to use Embedded Ruby in AutoYaST profiles. - Huge speed up of one of the AutoYaST steps. - A new log of the packages upgraded via the installer's self-update.

With some delay from the actual end of the sprint, let's take a look to what the YaST team was doing at the end of August. - More flexible AutoYaST profiles by means of Embedded Ruby (ERB). - Unify the format used to reference a certain element of an AutoYaST profile, both when reporting errors and when using ask-lists. - Preliminary version of a menu bar for the Partitioner. - Better handling of corrupted AutoYaST profiles.

[yast-devel] Y2Packager::Resolvable - search by RPM dependencies
by Ladislav Slezak 01 Sep '20

01 Sep '20

Hi all, I have improved the Y2Packager::Resolvable call (and the internally used Pkg.Resolvables call) to allow searching by RPM dependencies (provides, obsoletes, conflicts, requires, recommends, suggests, supplements, enhances). Examples: Just use the dependency name as the additional parameter: Y2Packager::Resolvable.find(kind: :package, provides: "application()") This searches for the exact string. Optionally you can use a regular expression, just add the "_regexp" suffix to the dependency name: Y2Packager::Resolvable.find(kind: :package, obsoletes_regexp: "^yast2-config-") The regular expression is a POSIX extended regular expression, not a Ruby regular expression! The regexp parameter is just passed to the underlying libzypp/libsolv. The filtering happens directly on the C++ level so it's much faster than filtering on the Ruby level. Do not forget to escape regexp metacharacters like []() # seach for autoyast() supplements Y2Packager::Resolvable.find(kind: :package, supplements_regexp: "^autoyast\\(.*\\)") If an invalid regexp is passed then the ArgumentError exception is raised. You can combine more dependencies like "provides" and "obsoletes" in one call (if that makes sense). The result is logical AND, all dependencies must match. To use this new feature you need yast2-pkg-bindings-4.3.0 and yast2-4.3.21 (or newer). The old Pkg.PkgQueryProvides() call has been marked as obsolete. The enhanced Pkg.Resolvables() call is more powerful as it covers also the other dependencies than "Provides" and allows using a regexp. Enjoy! :) -- Ladislav Slezák YaST Developer SUSE LINUX, s.r.o.
