[uyuni-devel] Opportunities for the Community
by Julio González Gil 03 Jun '20

03 Jun '20

Hi everyone, As discussed today at the Uyuni Community Hours, there are some opportunities for all the community to contribute back. You do not really need to be a developer, as you can also help with translation, documentation, or even design. Even with the website! Here are the topics that were proposed: - Translations: UI, documentation (no coding skills required) - Learning pills (articles, videos) - Salt formulas, forms: Active Directory authentication, Samba, Web Server... (no real coding skills required) - Import Debian and Ubuntu patches ("errata") information. - Debian autoinstallation: preseed support - Amazon Linux 2 repository syncing (requires adding sqlite support) - Virtual host gatherers for your favourite cloud or virtualizaton platform - Implemente GPG key management RFC - Content mirroring and statging - Virtualization enhacements: network configuration, snapshots management, PXE boot... - Support for more operating systems: MS Windows, Mac, Android... - LSP support in file viewers / editors (e.g. Eclipse Theia / Microsoft Monaco) - Integrate create-your-own-dashboard framework. Those are just some examples, so if you want to do something else, feel free to bring it forward. So if you are interested in any of the topics above, or you want to propose others, just write at uyuni-devel(a)opensuse.org so we can kickoff a discussion :-) Have a nice weekend and... happy hacking! -- Julio González Gil Release Engineer, SUSE Manager and Uyuni jgonzalez(a)suse.com

[uyuni-devel] Thanks for the first Uyuni Community Open Hour!
by Jochen Breuer 29 May '20

29 May '20

Hi list! Many thanks to everybody who showed up to the very first Uyuni Community Open Hour! I counted at least 40 people! This clearly shows that there is more than enough demand to make this a regular thing and we'd be delighted to see you again in four weeks to continue and deepen the discussions! We'll make a calendar appointment available very soon, so that you won't miss it and there won't be timezone conversion issues again! Also we'd like to know if you'd be interested in us recording the meeting, so that you'd be able to revisit the discussions later or watch it if you weren't able to make it. Pics or it didn't happen!? Here we go! ;D https://i.imgur.com/BHNZWWu.png Have a nice weekend everybody!

[uyuni-devel] Java import order config changes
by Cedric Bosdonnat 29 May '20

29 May '20

Hi fellow hackers, I have fixed the import order configuration file for Eclipse and the wiki for IntelliJ to avoid useless import order changes while switching editor in the commits. Action Items for everyone: * Eclipse Users: import the conf/eclipse/uyuni.importorder file in the import order config. Depending on your setup you may need to apply it in the project or the global settings. * IntelliJ Idea users: ensure you have a blank line between all import blocks. Note that there will still be changes while editing files that still have the old import order. Let's fix this while we edit files rather than in one go. The wiki pages for [0](Eclipse) and [1](IntelliJ) have been updated.

[uyuni-devel] [IMPORTANT] Uyuni 2020.05 does not update all packages on the Server (manual step required)
by Julio González Gil 25 May '20

25 May '20

Hi everyone. We got reports at the uyuni-users that some packages, namely "spacewalk- backend-*" and "python3-psycopg2" were not being updated. The reason is that we need a temporary vendor change for "python3-psycopg2" as we provide an updated version for the repository syncing performance improvements, that should arrive to openSUSE Leap 15.1 in the following weeks. Sadly this information was missing at the original release notes, so we apologize for that. To fix it, after running "zypper update" you will need force the vendor change with > zypper in python3-psycopg2-2.8.4-2.1.uyuni.x86_64 Then update again again, so the spacewalk-backend subpackages are updated: > zypper update If you already updated to 2020.05, just stop the services with spacewalk- service, run the two steps above, and then start the services again. All other packages such as "lucene" can be ignored. The release notes at the website [1] are already updated (because of the release procedure, we can update the RPM packages for Stable), and we did an announcement at the website. A tweet at Twitter will follow soon. Thank you very much to Philippe Bidault and Cristian Gherman for reporting the issue and helping testing the fix.
