[opensuse-factory] brp scripts in autobuild
by andreas.hanke＠gmx-topmail.de 19 Aug '07

19 Aug '07

Hi, from various discussions in bug reports I know that brp scripts for the following are installed in autobuild: - check whether .la files have an empty dependency_libs line - check whether .la and .pc files have references to the build root - check whether .desktop files have all their icons installed Are these scripts publicly available somewhere? They are not distributed with rpm, build or osc and I could not find them anywhere else either. If not, would it be possible to publish these (and others, if present)?

[opensuse-factory] Aqsis package for inclusion within openSUSE 10.3 (factory) repo
by Aqsis Team 18 Jun '07

18 Jun '07

Hi all, I've been working with Marcus (darix) on your BuildService team to create an official (open)SUSE package for our open source rendering solution - Aqsis. http://software.opensuse.org/download/graphics:/rendering Though the packages will remain on the BS for older (open)SUSE releases we would like to have Aqsis included within your official repository for the forthcoming 10.3 release. http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.3/repo/oss Our efforts are both stable and tested and we're happy to maintain this package for the necessary duration of your release (currently 2 active maintainers). This would be great help to our project as well as much appreciated, complimenting our existing packages within the official Fedora and Mandriva repos. Many thanks in advance, Leon Tony Atkinson Aqsis Team Member www.aqsis.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Java packages changes for 10.3
by Daniel Bornkessel 03 May '07

03 May '07

Hi. In 10.3, regarding Java, we want to do the following changes: - tomcat5 will be replaced by tomcat55 - we have jboss and geronimo already ... our jonas package is outdated anyways ... thus, dropping: jonas jonas-client jonas-docs jonas-examples - the avalon framework does not exist anymore ... dropping: avalon-framework avalon-framework-javadoc avalon-framework-manual In order to clean openSUSE from non-oss packages, we want to do the following changes: - jai has strict licensing ... if there are no strong objections we would like to drop this package. - java-1.4.2-sun will be dropped, versions 1.5.0, 1.6.0 (DLJ licensed) and gcj-compat 1.4.2 will be included. The DLJ-license is a special lincense that was introduced by Sun in 2006 for re-distributors of Sun Java (see http://download.java.net/dlj/DLJ-FAQ.html). It's less strict and more precise on what is allowed and what is not regarding the re-distribution. Apart from that, nothing visible will change for the users -- Sun Java will still be in the openSUSE non-oss section. - the following packages will be replaced by gnu-javamail which has an open source license: javamail javamail-demo javamail-javadoc javamail-manual javamail-monolithic - the following packages will be replaced by gnu-jaf which has an open source license:: jaf jaf-demo jaf-javadoc jaf-manual - the following packages will be replaced by classpath-jta which has an open source license: jta jta-javadoc - the following packages will be replaced by mx4j which has an open source license: jmx jmx-javadoc The packages that get dropped due to their licenses are usually licensed with the Sun Binary license which is not really the type of license we want to include in openSUSE if free oss counterparts are available. Any thoughts and comments on this are very welcome :) Regards, Daniel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] meeting minutes of last dist meeting
by Andreas Jaeger 30 Mar '07

30 Mar '07

Our last meeting was moved by a week and I forgot to inform you. Sorry about that. Here're the minutes, Andreas * libata per default We're going to use libata by default for future products. For 10.3, we will implement the following in YaST to handle disks with more than 15 partitions (libata uses the SCSI stack that only allows 15 partitions): If YaST recognizes that an IDE disk has more than 15 partitions and we use libata on it, YaST will display something like the following message: "openSUSE is switching to the new IDE drivers using the libata modules. These do only support partitions with up to 15 partitions. You have the following options with openSUSE 10.3: - Use the old IDE drivers: Boot again and add 'hwprobe=-modules.pata' as argument to the kernel - Repartition your system so that maximal 15 partitions are used. To repartition, use your existing operating system. In the future only the new libata drivers will be supported, so we advice to repartition. Installation will be aborted now." * Hal vs USB backends for cups. The use cases we like to solve are: * Detecting a printer when plugged into the machine and prompting the user to configure it - or even automatically selecting a driver like OS X and have the printer just work. * Not needing root to configure a printer * Detecting when a printer is connected/disconnected and offering virtual feedback * Ability to remove printers from copy when they are unplugged Basically cups is using its USB backend to detect printers. There is a hal backend we are kind of using for GNOME (Fedora also ships it) that only partially integrates. Since the rest of our hardware detection is running through hal, this seems like a sensible move. The discussion showed that there are many open questions and a smaller group will discuss how to move forward. * Splitting languages out of packages Usecases: * Reduced image size especially of thin clients and Live images * Reduced image size for distributions * Updating of single translation should be easier We do not want to make a $lang sub-package for every package, this way we get far too many. The following ideas exist: * convince upstream, e.g. GNOME, to do this similar to KDE. But this will only solve one part of the problem and not the base system. * Alter autobuild to split out languages itself. * Use the lang support in RPM, ie: rpm -i --define "_install_langs fr:es" <package> This would break delta RPMs. The idea is to add to spec file of packages a new rpm macro so that subpackages are created and then related subpackages are repacked for each language in our build system. This way we would get e.g. basesystem-$lang and gnome-$lang packages and those can then be installed. -- Andreas Jaeger, aj(a)suse.de, http://www.suse.de/~aj/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

[opensuse-factory] Howto to get package to oss-repository?
by Sami Vento 30 Mar '07

30 Mar '07

Hi! I wonder, if this is right list to ask, but what is the way to get libvoikko and OpenOffice-voikko to the official openSUSE oss -repository? Libvoikko is excelent finnish spellcheckin and hyphenation library. OpenOffice-voikko is uno-package, which provides libvoikko -support for OpenOffice. Both of this are already part of official packages in ubuntu, debian and mandriva. -- Sami Vento --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] ruf failure
by Dominique Leuenberger 30 Mar '07

30 Mar '07

Hi, for some days now (I can't really say how long.. it's been a while but I never took the time to look a bit around), my rug is not able to install anything anymore. ZMF is running, rug se <packet> also shows available packages, but on rug in <package> it always ends with an Error. This morning I found that there seems to be a problem with ZMD. if I issue a 'rug ping', the OS listed is {noarch} which probably should not be like this. I have the latest factory upgrades as of last week (last updated using zypper, which imho gives me the impression to be slower than zmd.. but that's another story.. and other problems are related to that program) I for myself would like to continue using rug / zmd Is there something I can do to fix the OS ZMD reports?

The discussion on opensuse-factory seemed to have stopped, whereas in the dist meeting were now some results presented, which seem not to honor some important facts, and seem not to be common positions. So I cannot agree with the later listed results, i.e. the RedHat/Fedora related ones. Why we should _not_ use Hal backend: - We cannot use hal backend, if we have need to support printing ability of multifunction printers (scanner/printer/fax). The lock of the usb device when supporting the scanning functionality is the main reason. - To have a full support of printers, we need to support vendor specific backends (!= hal backend), like those from HP or Epson. - The hal backend lacks still of implementation of new features of the cups-1.2.x system. The upstream maintainer (RedHat/Fedora) doesn't show any activity regarding this since release of cups-1.2x (9 months). ==> outdated. - It's not necessary to use the hal backend just to have the hal functionality of plugin/remove of printers use. Writing a hal policy file (.fdi file) with call of an Novell/SuSE specific tool should be enough/better. We should not use the automatic setup solution from Fedora: - The origin of the database seems not to be public. We cannot react if we want to handle all of our supported printers just before a product realase. We are always one release cycle behind RedHat/Fedora if we want to use their solution. No improvements at our side. - The automatic setup didn't show any further development at Fedora/RedHat since quiet some time (it's outdated!). This was the main reason, why even Ubuntu/Debian went away and uses now printerdrake. - We already have a in-house solution, named YaST!!! Why cant we use that? YaST already does automatic printer installation, when doing a new system installation. It should be no major effort, to enhance YaST in such a way that we get an command-line interface to do this.

[opensuse-factory] Minutes from 2007-03-23 dist meeting
by Andreas Jaeger 24 Mar '07

24 Mar '07

Here are the minutes from yesterday's dist meeting. If you have any questions, comments, ideas, please speak up! Thanks, Andreas * Enabling more network services to be NetworkManager aware, e.g. ntp and autofs This is in general desired but might need quite large rework for some services like autofs that do not handle IP changes properly. Proposal: Services should be aware that network goes up/down and handle no network (instead of timing out). Let's look what can be done for ntp - and later look at other services. Note the ntp service is also usefull for machines without network (serial DCF77 clock). Right now the dispatcher script sends a signal to ntp if the IP address changes but during boot ntp starts even if network is not running. Suggestion: ntp start script should figure out if NetworkManager is running and if it is only start if network is up - otherwise the dispatcher script will start it. AI: Work together on ntp. Dial-in support for NetworkManager to support ISDN, Modem, UMTS, 3G cards is beeing worked on and should be ready for openSUSE 10.3. * Checkin policy for specific projects and how to track them Current example is postgresql. This was a question for security update of old distributions. The maintenance team grants exceptions on a case by case basis, e.g. if the new version just fixes the security problem. * AppArmor: Move the profiles from our package to their packages This would allow easier tracking of changes in packages. On the other hand a central place might give some extra review. Consensus: If the format is stable enough, we should distribute the profiles. Once we do it, we should train the packagers and institure some review process for the profiles to maintain a high quality. Beside manual page apparmor.d(5) a short documentation for packagers in plain english of the format is missed. AI: talk to Apparmor folks. * Faster booting? What can be done here? Booting consists of kernel startup, initrd and System V scripts. The bootchart scripts do measure the System V scripts but not the initial ramdisk. Idea: Snapshotting at gdm/kdm time: Write a snapshot and resume at the next boot back to this version. This is different from suspend to disk. Filesystem fragmentation under Linux is in general not a problem - but it is a problem in booting. Therefore measurements have to be done on freshly installed systems. AI: Generate some bootcharts to show current bottlenecks. * Shrink the basepackages (packages always installed for building) With todays changes we seem to be able to do a self-contained build of base with just 72 source packages (spec files). By heavily stripping the set of basepacks of course. And we have side-by-side compiles against the openSUSE config to compare logfiles (no differences sofar). This means that e.g. vim and strace will be removed from the build environment. The autobuild team will add options to build to easily add debug tools to the tree. AI: Show list of packages to autobuild to adjust configs, announce changes to opensuse-packaging - and run comparisions of the complete system to check that all requirements are met. * Email notifications for checkins for not novell addresses Package.changes file coming from the build service might contain non-Novell email addresses. We decided to not send any autobuild emails to those adddresses. AI: implement whitelist of domains (currently @novell.com, @suse.de, @suse.cz) Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, aj(a)suse.de, http://www.suse.de/~aj/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

hi, just some feedback on xen in the factory release, I hope this help to anyone who looks after the xen implementation in opensuse. rg phil - the xen kernel didn't create correct entry in /boot/grub/menu.lst, didn't identify my root settings and didn't add what I've got in the other boots - I'm using console, so I add console=tty0 console=ttyS0,57600 in the menu.lst however, the output on console is just ï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œ ï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œ ï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œ ï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œ ï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œ ï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œ ï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œï¿œ - couldn't use the cpus = "" option, there is a bug if I'm right # HG changeset patch # User Ewan Mellor <ewan(a)xensource.com> # Date 1169721257 0 # Node ID 82c306ad212e3714cf9292611a0ddb8de7a3b5dc # Parent 32f7d3200a995c5ae9b0819c63d51c51e2febe73 Have the sxp parsing cope when the cpus field is a list, which can happen after a reboot. >From Daniele Palumbo <daniele(a)retaggio.net>.

[opensuse-factory] Clue on sound problem
by Donn Washburn 21 Mar '07

21 Mar '07

Hey Group; I have Audacity and it works (not on the PCM buss). As root it works but only one signal meter is working on a line input (my problem) However, if I try it as a user there is no record of the signal after the first record time. It seems to work on the first time -> punch the record button and the line modulates across the screen (normal). Stop it after a bit. Try as you might there is no second retart or out right start. I get a Error while opening sound device. To that I have ran strace with nothing of a value being reported. Anyone think of a way to track this down. I would like the "user" to have permission to use it as "root" or "su" it works -- 73 de Donn Washburn 307 Savoy Street Email: " n5xwb(a)hal-pc.org " Sugar Land, TX 77478 LL# 1.281.242.3256 Ham Callsign N5XWB HAMs : " n5xwb(a)arrl.net " VoIP via Gizmo: bmw_87kbike / via Skype: n5xwbg BMW MOA #: 4146 - Ambassador " http://counter.li.org " #279316 Did you know?

[opensuse-factory] Large file size problem under xen
by Dr. Gustav Quade 19 Mar '07

19 Mar '07

Hello, for an advanced scientific project we use a large server with 64Gbyte memory and 10TB disk space. Since some jobs will run for several weeks we plan to use virtual machines which can be saved during maintenance tasks. Using kernel 2.6.18.8-0.1-xen x86_64 I can create a several terabytes large partition using yast. Using xfs I created a 4.7 terabytes large file. df -k: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/sde1 6835799424 4608001068 2227798356 68% /test Fdisk, sfdisk or cfdisk show wrong partition size. yast: /dev/sde │ 6.3 TB│ │Areca-ARC-1280-VOL#04 /dev/sde1│ 6.3 TB│ │Linux native │/test fdisk -l /dev/sde Disk /dev/sde: 6999.9 GB, 6999999774720 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 851034 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sde1 1 48986 393479629+ 83 Linux After "exporting" the disk to DomU the partition can't be mounted. mount /dev/hdc1 /test mount: /dev/hdc1: can't read superblock fdisk shows the same results as in Dom0 fdisk -l /dev/hdc Disk /dev/hdc: 6999.9 GB, 6999999774720 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 851034 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hdc1 1 48986 393479629+ 83 Linux but yast in DomU is not able to recognize the correct partition size. /dev/hdc │ 6.3 TB│ │DISK hdc │ /dev/hdc1│ 375.2 GB│ │Linux native I have two questions: 1. why fdisk is not showing the correct partition date? 2. is xen forwarding the partition parameters correctly?

Two questions: 1) Will the install detect this automatically and configure appropriately? 2) Is there any danger of this hosing the rest of the partitions? I have three test partitions, but I'm not prepared to endanger the main system in the "production" partition in order to test it... - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
