[opensuse-factory] Too many packages to process
by Vojtěch Zeisek 12 Mar '21

12 Mar '21

I'm not sure, if this is bug or feature... After few days, update applet (TW, KDE) says there are 6843 new updates (TeX, R, ... ;-). When I click to "Install updates" error "Too many packages to process (6843/5200)" appears. Zypper handles it well. Is it worth of bug report? To b.o.o? Yours, V. -- Vojtěch Zeisek Komunita openSUSE GNU/Linuxu Community of the openSUSE GNU/Linux https://www.opensuse.org/ https://trapa.cz/

31 May '18

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hi, I just attempted to test Leap 15.0 in my laptop, and I don't see the XFCE pattern. I had to abort. Has XFCE been removed? Is there some trick?

[opensuse-factory] rpmlint-checks: I: polkit-untracked-privilege will become an error
by Matthias Gerstner 13 Apr '18

13 Apr '18

Hello, the SUSE security team recently decided to turn the rpmlint check "polkit-untracked-privilege" into an error. Currently this is only an informational message. If you get messages like these in your package: gvfs-backends.x86_64: I: polkit-untracked-privilege org.gtk.vfs.file-operations (no:no:auth_admin_keep) then they will become an error with 10.000 extra badness in the future, as is the case with other polkit related errors. This affects all packages in openSUSE:Factory. The rationale behind that is that even though these polkit rules seem harmless (only locally logged in users with admin privileges can acquire the polkit privilege), they can expose security issues. This is because the correct enforcement of the polkit policy is depending on the individual package's polkit adaption. Therefore such packages must go through a review process with the security team. You can trigger this process by opening a bug against security-team(a)suse.de and adding an AUDIT prefix to the bug summary. For more about this please refer to this wiki page: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Package_security_guidelines We don't expect many packages to be affected by this. If you have any questions please reach out to us. Thank you Matthias -- Matthias Gerstner <matthias.gerstner(a)suse.de> Dipl.-Wirtsch.-Inf.

[opensuse-factory] firewalld migration (was: Tumbleweed - Review of the week 2018/03)
by Robert Munteanu 31 Mar '18

Hi, > There will not be an automated migration path from an old SuSEfirewall2 > configuration to a firewalld configuration. There is a package > "susefirewall2-to-firewalld" which contains a utility for converting > SuSEfirewall2 configurations to firewalld. It's only a supporting tool > that tries to do the right thing. But it requires manual interaction and > review of the resulting firewall rules.

[opensuse-factory] amd ryzen low load hard freeze kernel
by Simon Becherer 26 Mar '18

26 Mar '18

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, since nearly 6 month now i have trouble with my unstable ryzen systems. randmom crashes after a couple of hours (<8), (nearly) no load, most times only hard reset is possible to start system new. most times nothing special in system-log (as i know, maybe somebody who know more could see suspected things.) after searching the net: because i am not really familiar with kernel-boot parameter settings, and i have read its necessary to build own kernel (on lists of other distributions) i like to ask: how to fix (work around) or if maybe included in the tumbleweed-kernel the "low load freeze of ryzen" here: ryzen (1700) 8 core processor systems with tumbleweed. i read several links found by google: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=196683 https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/1690085/comments/69 https://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?315887-Random-Crashing they suggest to include rcu_nocbs=0-15 is /etc/defaults/grub file correct?

Re: [opensuse-factory] New Tumbleweed snapshot 20171231 released!
by Andrei Dziahel 23 Mar '18

23 Mar '18

Hi Stefan, Dominique & all, The recent kernel v4.14.9 release breaks NVIDIA driver. There's a patch available on https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1028016/linux/patch-for-compiling-…, do you mind applying it? Going further, would be the openQA test that tries to install NVIDIA proprietary driver be ever accepted to general test suite? Or is there an OBS project with "working-with-nvidia" kernel packages? Sure, these suggestions are off top of the head, probably there is a better way to prevent "nvidia driver doesn't compile for 3 snapshots in a row, older kernels were just purged by purge-kernels so X doesn't run at all" case. Thank you in advance. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Packages depending on xorg-x11-devel
by Tomas Chvatal 22 Mar '18

22 Mar '18

Hello all, we still happen to have may packages depending on xorg-x11-devel which is metapackage pulling in whole x11 stack to the dependency chain. This means your package waits for the full X stack to be available before it even contemplates building. There are currently 107 packages doing this (see attached file) as such it is pretty annoying to open bugreports against everything. As such would it be possible if interested souls fix their packages to require only the stuff they need, preferably in the pkgconfig format, ie: BuildRequires: pkgconfig(libxcb) I will also add rpmlint error to fail all packages that are adding this dependency (as we are keeping the package for weird binary 3rd party apps, but do not want it in OBS). Thanks Tom

[opensuse-factory] Announcing Tumbleweed snapshot review site
by Jimmy Berry 15 Mar '18

15 Mar '18

Following up on my prior announcement [1] of Tumbleweed Snapshots, introducing a snapshot review site [2]. By utilizing a variety of sources of feedback pertaining to snapshots a stability score is estimated. The goal is to err on the side of caution and to allow users to avoid troublesome releases. Obviously, there are many enthusiasts who enjoy encountering issues and working to resolve them, but others are looking for a relatively stable experience. Releases with a low score will continue to impact future release scores with a gradual trail-off. Given that issues generally are not fixed immediately in the next release this assumes the next few releases may still be affected. If the issue persists and is severe it will likely be mentioned again in the mailing list and the score again reduced. Major system components that are either release candidates or low minor releases are also considered to be risky. For example, recent Mesa release candidates caused white/black screens for many users which is not-trivial to recover from for less-technical users. Such issues come around from time to time since openQA will not catch everything. Release stability is considered to be pending for the first week after release to allow time for reports to surface. This of course depends on enthusiasts who update often, encounter, and report problems. The scoring is likely to be tweaked over time to reflect observations. It may also make sense to add a manual override feature to aid scoring when something critical is encountered. Integrating the scoring data into the tumbleweed-cli would allow users to pick a minimum stability level or score and only update to those releases. Such a mechanism can be vital for systems run by family members, servers, or the wave of gamers looking for the latest OSS graphics stack. For more details see the code behind the site [3]. Currently, you can see the very low scores for the releases laden with shader cache issues and those therafter. This is the first iteration of the site so nothing too fancy and the score is fairly basic. The site also provides a machine readable (YAML) version of the data [4]. As a side-node, Tumbleweed Snapshots are limited to 50 snapshots due to a hosting restriction [5], but that should generally be over two months worth. Hopefully others find this useful, enjoy!
