[opensuse-factory] RFC: create multimedia:libs and move media libs and GStreamer primary Factory development
by Stanislav Brabec 23 Apr '09

23 Apr '09

Hallo. It would be nice to have a central place for multimedia libraries and codecs. Nowadays they are spread over many home:*:Factory projects. GStreamer primary development project is even GNOME:Factory and it is frozen in GNOME:STABLE:*, even if it has nothing to do with GNOME release cycle. It means that it's hard to upgrade multimedia stuff like GStreamer on released products and even test new libraries. That is why I would like to propose new repository: multimedia:libs This repository should contain latest version of multimedia libraries and codecs. It should be preferred Factory devel project for this type of packages. It is not intended for multimedia applications. It should be built for released products, so other projects can easily resource it if appropriate. I volunteer to start with my packages and GStreamer. This problem was discussed several times in past but no action was done yet, that is why I am pinging this again. -- Best Regards / S pozdravem, Stanislav Brabec software developer --------------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX, s. r. o. e-mail: sbrabec(a)suse.cz Lihovarská 1060/12 tel: +420 284 028 966, +49 911 740538747 190 00 Praha 9 fax: +420 284 028 951 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] checkinstall strangeness
by Sid Boyce 22 Apr '09

22 Apr '09

May require submitting a bug. Building a RPM package from a tarball will quite often include stuff that's already installed, e.g:- I have to give checkinstall options such as --exclude /lib64/,/usr/bin/gcc,/usr/lib64/gcc/,/lib64/crti.o,/lib64/crtn.o and others when I discover with "rpm -qpl xxxx.rpm" that they are included in the package. Has anyone else noticed this as it has been so for a very long time. Noting that every problem I have posted to this list in recent months has been met with silence, suggesting that most people install the distro and simply run with it as is - see if my luck changes this time. Packages such as jack are still at 0.109 while the latest 0.116.2 is needed for certain apps like dttsp to work correctly. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ...

There is an interest within the IBM group responsible for the development for DB2 to make it easier for users to get and install DB2 Express-C, the free version of DB2.

[opensuse-factory] Czech Packagers Meeting minutes 2009-04-07
by Michal Hrusecky 21 Apr '09

21 Apr '09

Czech Packagers Meeting minutes 2009-04-07 ========================================== Present: nadvornik, puzel, sbrabec, pgajdos, mseben, mhrusecky, anicka, mvyskocil Minutes: mhrusecky Topics: (1) Community Week (2) Dropped packages (3) Changelogs (4) Proposals pages (1) Community Week: =================== There is going to be held Community Week[1] (starting at 20th April). We should participate as mentors for packaging day. Help people with packaging and submitting to the Contrib. Maybe this opportunity can be also used by community members to clean up their home repositories. Ideas are already presented on wiki page[1]. [1] http://en.opensuse.org/Hackweek (2) Dropped packages: ===================== puzel told us about packages dropped from Factory. One really interesting group of packages dropped was xsane and sane frontends. We all agreed that these packages are really useful and should maintained somewhere. So puzel proposed that he would maintain it in Contrib and if he'll encounter any problems he wouldn't have time to solve, we will help him. Other Interesting dropped package was bash-completion. But this one was dropped because of several serious bugs and poor support upstream so no easy solution for this package. (3) Changelogs: =============== mhrusecky is working on submiting new MySQL into factory. But this package was for a long time maintained in separate repository in BuildService and there was some changes in old package meantime. So there is a problem how to merge changelogs. Currently the easiest way seems to be to commit all changes in development branch as one changelog entry to the old changelog and replace old package with a new one. But this may occur more frequently with cooperation in BuildsSrvice so maybe it would be good idea to have some formal rules how to solve such situation. We also discussed results from discussion on mailing list about changelogs. Result from this discussion was that what we should write in changelogs is only packaging changes and leave a note where to find detail information about changes during package update. (4) Proposals pages: ==================== During discussion about changelogs mvyskocil mentioned that Fedora has some wiki pages with proposals/upcoming changes which are not official yet, so people can discuss these changes, everyone can read these proposal's and people can prepare for these changes. It may be a good idea to have something similar, especially with planned opening of factory. Status reports: =============== anicka: - openssh: investigate #489209 - cfengine: fix #487781 jmatejek: - removing python-numeric dependency from python-gtk - work on updating SUSE Studio support packages mhrusecky: - working on merging development version of MySQL with factory version - working on fixing some minor issues in development version of MySQL mseben: - audacity : submitted patch to fix build issues in factory (problems with linking against wxGTK) - audacity : submitted fix of bnc#477654 (missing expression in return) - doxygen : created patch for bnc#489947 (disabling build date in html footer) mvyskocil: - fixed bnc#492555: tomcat6+confluence wiki crashed under openjdk6 puzel: - closed #469337 - deb: dpkg --print-architecture prints empty string - fix #467332 for 11.1 - 467332 - Incomplete tools for Debian packages (deb) sbrabec: - pcsc-*, opensc, openct: Updated, modalias supplements, fixes (bnc#438131, bnc#474818, bnc#466430, bnc#304149, bnc#440853) - libusb-1_0, libusb-compat: Update. -- Michal Hrusecky Package Maintainer SUSE LINUX, s.r.o e-mail: mhrusecky(a)suse.cz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Quanta fish kio status on KDE4 for 11.1 and 11.2?

Listmates, I wanted to check and get the latest on whether the Quanta fish kio problem in kde4 has been resolved for 11.1 and if not will it be for 11.2? If not, can something like a kdebase3-runtime be included in 11.2 so we don't lose functionality? Thanks. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

That's encouraging... It seems that ATI commitment to its Linux driver program is superficial at best. That's is the real bottom line here. It's a "take what you get" mentality. All of it's great lip service about wanting "Linux Driver Feedback" and "being interest" in resolving driver issues, is not worth the silicon its written on. You have worked far more of these issues than I have, and we have worked issues together through bugzilla at lease since late 2007, but I have never in my life seen the absolute ignoring of Linux user driver problems than I have in the past 6-8 months. As mentioned, I have filed ATI feedback cases on every single release since 8-10, provided all logs, confs, hardware specks, and it is very apparent that ATI hasn't lifted a finger to even try and identify the issue. The only finger lifted was to hit the [del] key. It has had a positive impact though. I will never purchase another laptop with ATI hardware in it. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

[opensuse-factory] libusb: next try to upgrade to libusb1
by Stanislav Brabec 15 Apr '09

15 Apr '09

Hallo. Maybe you remember that we tried to upgrade libusb0 to libusb1 + libusb-compat in beta phase of openSUSE 11.1. We got a lot of bug reports. That forced us to switch back to libusb0. But it was a very valuable feedback for upstream. Upstream tried to debug and fix all these issues and libusb1 reached version 1.0.0 and it became a new stable branch in December. That is why I want to try the full switch to libusb1 again. Please report any problems related to libusb. libusb-compat is not a 100% identical to libusb0 and there may be particular problems that should be fixes in applications - incorrect use of libusb, that worked in libusb0, but does not work in libusb1. -- Best Regards / S pozdravem, Stanislav Brabec software developer --------------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX, s. r. o. e-mail: sbrabec(a)suse.cz Lihovarská 1060/12 tel: +420 284 028 966, +49 911 740538747 190 00 Praha 9 fax: +420 284 028 951 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

As a side note, I guess I need to get used to kde4 (I say that because I had a conflit in yast when I tried to add a "kde3 basic" package... probably my fault...I was looking for a kde 3 pattern to add to add kde3 as well during the net install but couldn't fine anything - hint, hint - so I just added a 'kde 3 base' selection and tried that but in the end I ended up removing it due to conflicts... :( My didn't sound card - a "Xonar Essence STX" didn't error out in Yast as in previous versions of opensuse but the son icon doesn't "show up" in the kde4 task manager tool .... Still some progress has been made. Note : The "Xonar Essence STX" card is set up as the primary sound cart in "yast2/son" but when I hit 'edit' - the following message appears 'There are no options available for this module' # Xonar Essence STX details 03:04.0 Multimedia audio controller: C-Media Electronics Inc CMI8788 [Oxygen HD Audio] Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.

[opensuse-factory] First milestone release
by Stephan Kulow 09 Apr '09

09 Apr '09

Hi, I wanted to release a first milestone before easter, but unfortunately I found 2 blocking issues while pretesting the DVDs and the live cds have a very poor performance at the moment, so I withdraw this idea. Next chance to release a milestone is the week after easter week - e.g. april 23rd. It would be cool if more people could test factory installation and live cds and file bug reports, so the first milestone is good enough. The end of april is basically the last chance to release a first milestone: http://ktown.kde.org/~coolo/opensuse_release/ Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org
