[opensuse-factory] acpid requires systemd?
by Felix Miata 25 Apr '24

25 Apr '24

Can this be true? If so, why? Zypper won't let me upgrade acpid without breakage unless systemd is installed too. I have systemd locked out, as I'd rather test things I can understand in Factory, not major overhaul stuff. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

[opensuse-factory] KDE menus and gitorious
by Cristian Morales Vega 06 Nov '12

06 Nov '12

I created a merge request for desktop-data three weeks ago. It's just a minor patch that doesn't really fix anything but a warning from kbuildsycoca4. I'm not sure about how Gitorious works, maintainers are supposed to notice the "1" in the merge requests section or they receive an email notifying it? And since I'm on it. Since I updated my 11.3 system to KDE to 4.5 the "inline" part of the menu is not honored... Expected behavior?

[opensuse-factory] [RFC DRAFT] Phasing out sysvinit
by Cristian Rodríguez 08 Feb '12

08 Feb '12

Hi: Supporting 2 different init systems comes with a large increase of possible usecases and scenarios that are very difficult to support correctly, specially in the long term. This RFC proposes steps to permanently phase out sysvinit from future openSUSE releases. Phase 0 - Fix all *currently* outstanding bugs of systemd if any, note that this step only deals with problems in systemd itself, not in service files installed by other packages, udev, kernel, networkmanager or whatever other thing. - Determine which services currently lack of native systemd units. - Add an rpmlint error with moderate badness for the start,complaining about the lack of unit files. Phase 1: - Delete sysvinit scripts that deal purely with hardware things,like only loading kernel modules, making udev to handle them or simple dropping a foobar.conf with the needed modules in /usr/lib/modules-load.d/ whichever is more adequate or doable. - Add missing systemd units for the packages where rpmlint warns. - Add rpmlint with badness complaining about logrotate, or other shell scripts calling files in /etc/init.d ... Phase 3: - Turn rpmlint warnings about the lack of systemd units on packages including traditional sysvinit scripts a fatal error. - fix logrotate or shell scripts that are calling sysvint scripts and make the rpmlint warning a fatal error. - tell RPM to %exclude files in /etc/init.d from packages, do not forc packagers to exclude these files themselves. - make all macros relevant to traditional init scripts a no-op, do not force packagers to remove those lines or add extra hacks to the already horrendous hackery in spec files. - test, test, test. - remove sysvinit and all the relevant bootloader options and from the documentation. -- ????? -- Profit. :-) This is just a quick brain dump, I am certainly missing something else. Have fun. Cristian. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Lilypond won't work with guile 2.0, What can I do to prevent it being dropped? Do we really want guile 2.0 yet?
by Dave Plater 31 Jan '12

31 Jan '12

OpenSUSE has jumped way ahead of all the other major distributions by pushing guile-2.0 to factory, this may cause problems for packages such as gnucash if it uses guile to the extent that lilypond does. Lilypond uses guile extensively and are working on porting lily to guile 2.0 but this is their timeline quoted from one of my emails from Graham Percival to the devel list please note that lilypond 2.16.0 may not be released before openSUSE 12.1 and I'm working on 2.14.2 atm the current release : There is absolutely zero chance of lilypond 2.16 using guile 2.0. There is maybe a 10% chance that any version of lilypond will support guile 2.0 in 2011. Total guesswork for future predictions: 50% chance of supporting guile 2.0 before July 2012, 80% chance of support guile 2.0 before the end of 2012. What that means for opensuse is up to you. If you particularly want guile 2.0, then by all means jump in; the more people working on it, the higher the chances are that it'll get done sooner. But based on the amount of work that currently goes into guile 2.0, those are my estimates. Cheers, - Graham and I think this is also relevant, another lily developers reply from the same message: Given that the upcoming ubuntu oneiric apparently does not include guile 2.0, I also don't see a switch to guile 2.0 in the near future. I suppose that we should ask the ubuntu people when they'll finally package guile 2.0. Cheers, Reinhold I've looked at parallel installation of guile 1.8.8 (we jumped from 1.8.7 to 2.0.1) and it doesn't look easy otherwise I would have submitted guile1 but I'm still working on it although I'm not that familiar with the autoconf/automake build system at this level. What this means for openSUSE, lilypond is a very popular musical notation type setting program, the developers pride themselves in the accuracy of the notation positions, it is also used, for musical notation by rosegarden, a popular music and midi composition program. Both of these applications have no substitutes in the open source world and only have costly equivalents in the ms windows world, neither being available for ms windows although there are requests to port for both this won't happen in the immediate future. Rosegarden can work without lilypond as it is only bound to lilyponds notation fonts but the sheet music it exports will be useless so it will lose major functionality. Lilypond won't even be able to be installed via tarball on openSUSE 12.1 without the user removing guile 2.0 completely and installing guile 1.8 via tarball, as a result these users of lilypond and rosegarden will drop openSUSE. I started as a community maintainer by saving both lilypond and rosegarden from being dropped, I'm now very active in maintaining multimedia apps and libs and losing these programs will mean losing a large section of professionals in music related professions that have migrated from the windows world including the people that I've converted from ms windows just by showing them rosegarden although ms's change from xp to vista also helped. For the other packages that directly depend on guile : guile aisleriot gnucash autogen and slib, the change back to guile-1.8.8 won't AFAICS have any negative effects, all of these packages simply have patches for guile 2.0 and after looking at the patches, will most probably build with the patches still in place. I don't know what the situation is with guile users but it is an app for use by apps and not a direct users app. Guile-1.8.7 builds for factory, guile-1.8.7 doesn't build for 11.4. What are we going to do? Drop lilypond, I will keep it alive in home:plater:lilypond with guile-1.8.8 to replace guile-2.0.2 or revert to guile-1.8.8 in line with the other linux distributions?

[opensuse-factory] proper way to link packages in openSUSE:Tumbleweed
by Greg KH 12 Jan '12

12 Jan '12

Hi Adrian, We talked at brainshare about the "correct" way to link packages in Tumbleweed, and unfortunatly, I forgot one of the steps as I can't get it to work now. Here's what I remember: - look up the xsrcmd5 from the "root" package. For example, in the X11:xfce midori package I would do something like: osc api /source/X11:xfce/midori | grep linkinfo | pick out xsrcmd5 (where 'pick out' is a regex) - then run 'osc setlinkrev' with that md5 in the Tumbleweed repo. It's that last step that I can't seem to get correct, what is the exact command for it? I tried something like: $ osc setlinkrev -r bc383278250a5673d3799c2b31c9e6ef openSUSE:Tumbleweed filesystem setting revision to bc383278250a5673d3799c2b31c9e6ef for package filesystem Server returned an error: HTTP Error 400: Base System/filesystem/bc383278250a5673d3799c2b31c9e6ef not in repository.

[opensuse-factory] [12.1] massive data loss in /var/tmp/
by Melchior FRANZ 09 Jan '12

09 Jan '12

Apparently, 12.1 has added /var/tmp/ to TMP_DIRS_TO_CLEAR in /etc/sysconfig/cron. I was quite surprised when I found out today that I've lost a few GB of data, which used to be safe there. Needless to say that I'm not pleased. No backups, because it wasn't *that* important, but I find such changes without warning suboptimal, to put it politely. m. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Planned submission of glib 2.31 and resulting package failures
by Dimstar / Dominique Leuenberger 05 Jan '12

05 Jan '12

Hello everybody! This is as a heads up for all of you having packages depending (directly or indirectly) on glib. We're like to start pushing parts of GNOME 3.3.2 to Factory in the not too distant future. A 'critical' part will be glib, which gets updated to version 2.31, and, in turn, get's very strict on its header inclusion. With the exception of very few headers (see end), only glib.h can be #include'd now; all the others trigger an error: error: "Only <glib.h> can be included directly." Generally, the code needs fixing and changing the includes to only contain #include <glib.h> Most of the other glib headers are indirectly implicit included. So far I know of those that still need to be manually included: glib/gstdio.h glib/gi18n.h glib/i18n-lib.h I'll be trying to setup a repo like coolo does for the various fallouts he produces (libtool/automake) and try to get a bunch of packages fixed beforehand (I fixed most of GNOME:Factory/GNOME:Apps by now), but of course I'll gladly accept any help of other volunteers checking their packages.

[opensuse-factory] Proposal for 12.2, move all binaries under /usr
by Greg KH 04 Jan '12

04 Jan '12

Hi all, As a proposal for 12.2, I would like to implement the move of all binaries to /usr/ like is being done at the moment in Fedora. Here's the details as to why this is a good thing to do, and what is involved in it: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/UsrMove The first packages implementing this have already started to land in Fedora's version of Factory. Before you get worried, there will be symlinks back to /bin and /sbin for those scripts expecting things to be in those locations. We can use the Fedora patches for almost all of this, they are all published at: http://harald.fedorapeople.org/downloads/usrmove/ and a number of upstream projects are already moving their releases over to this as well, which will make things easier. If there are no major objections, I'll start working on Base:system in December. thanks, greg k-h p.s. Please, before you respond, read the link above and all of the discussion about it and don't repeat the same questions that the link already answers. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] RFC: Integrating Plymouth
by Cristian Rodríguez 03 Jan '12

03 Jan '12

Hi: Today I looked into Plymouth and got it somehow working quickly, I want to propose the inclusion of this replacement of bootsplash, under the following constrains: - It will be only supported when running in conjunction with systemd. (it has native integration with it) - Users are free to package or create their own themes, but we provide only ONE theme, consistent "looking" between desktops whatever the openSUSE artwork theme decides. Steps: - enable building of systemd-plymouth package, actually changing %build_plymouth variable in systemd.spec - Take a look to the initrd related code, as well as "cryptsetup" integration that looks somewhat strange currently. - Install "bootsplash" only with legacy sysvinit. That's all for now. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Help with dir setup in /media
by Robert Schweikert 01 Jan '12

01 Jan '12

With 12.1 /media is now mounted as tmpfs. As I used to have a number of directories in /media (used as mount points for ISO images), I created the following script in /etc/tmpdirs.d to get the directories I want in /media -> cat /etc/tmpdirs.d/02_media mediaDirs=( os11332 os11364 os11432 os11464 os12132 os12164 sle10sp432sdk \ sle10sp464sdk sle11sp132sdk sle11sp164sdk sled1032 sled1064 \ sled10sp432 sled10sp464 sled11sp132 sled11sp164 sles1032 \ sles1064 sles10sp432 sles10sp464 sles11sp132 sles11sp164) for medDir in ${mediaDirs[@]};do test -d /media/$medDir || mkdir /media/$medDir done However, upon reboot the /media directory is empty, what am I missing? I am aware of the discussion of dropping /etc/tmpdirs.d (http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-packaging/2011-11/msg00057.html) However, the manpage for tmpdirs.d states /etc/tmpdirs.d supersedes /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d, also I think my custom files should go into /etc and not /usr/lib. Anyway, what is the best, and somewhat future proof, approach to this? As a side note, with the mounting of /media as tmpfs "umount /media" followed by the TAB key no longer auto-completes to any mounted filesystems/devices/loops etc :( . Is there a way to get the old behavior back?

[opensuse-factory] [devel-editors] new package "nested"
by Izaac Zavaleta 31 Dec '11

31 Dec '11

Hello gents, I'd like to introduce you nested editor (nested) which is an specialized editor focused on structured documents you can read more about it in the project's about page: http://nestededitor.sourceforge.net/about.html it is basically a python-gtk/python-webkitgtk editor using txt2tags as markup language written in python, and according to upstream/vendor it needs python > 2.6 and also textlive to export or publish documents in tex/pdf and is also capable of export them as html, also the website is made with it. As you may notice it is focused to aid users not familiar with markup languages or tex tools to publish documents with advanced formatting. You can also check the complete list of features in the project website. In tech terms is basically written in python and with very few build requirements so it shouldn't be difficult to maintain. I'm in the process to do a submit request shortly to factory from devel-editors.

[opensuse-factory] 'xz' (LZMA) support by default on our build environments...
by Nelson Marques 31 Dec '11

31 Dec '11

Dear people, The GNOME Project, one of the biggest projects in openSUSE is throwing out the source code in .xz (LZMA). This is quite fun and there's obvious benefits on it, the problem that rises from this is the following: * Our build environments doesn't support .xz sources; * We're required to add "BuildRequires: xz" to the spec files; * Some projects require us to add comments to the "BR xz" entries refering to bnc#697467; * Some projects require us to add the same stuff in the changelog entries; In the last times I've seen a growing demonstration of attitudes in the scope of "We dont give a flying fuck about you or your needs" (that's how I see it). The Project Management is growing arrogant and following a potential hidden agenda and ignoring everything that doesn't sound nice to them. While we move forward (or some at least) into dangerous fields like systemd, btrfs, the proposed changes from Fedora to the filesystem structure and friends... the stuff that we really could use to improve productivity and our work is being left behind. So I bring this tiny issue to your attention, so that any kind soul can provide a technical explanation on why we can have 'xz' supported on our build environments... and why we're required to insert dumbass comments that no one can explain. If the Project Leadership is unable to answer with a technical explanation for this, you should seriously consider resigning and opening your spot to someone who has some balls to change things up and at least provide a reasonable explanation for this.... at the risk of loosing every independent contributor that still donates some of their free time to openSUSE. NM PS: If you don't like the tone, live with it, I return in double whatever is granted to me. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

Well, reading the comments, the feature actually requested is for a flicker- free boot sequence, and that is something I can agree with, I certainly don't have a problem with that. I just think we may be leaving regular users behind for ideological reasons when we say that users of the only properly working nvidia driver can forget support, they'll have to take what they get. I think it should be possible to detect when there is a kms capable driver, and use plymouth then, and fall back to bootsplash/splashy/whatever to provide a nice graphical boot sequence for everyone. I don't object to plymouth, I object to dropping the standard bootsplash by default Anders -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Tarballs absent in upstream is not a packaging bug
by Cristian Rodríguez 27 Dec '11

27 Dec '11

Hi: Currently, some bots are mass refusing submit requests due to missing tarballs in the Source field of the spec file. With all due respect, this is non-sense, specially since machine made resolutions cannot be successfully challenged, reopening the request causes the same damned bot to decline the request for the same reason,over and over again. Try for example getting reliable tarballs from kernel.org..since the intrusion on their systems they are sometimes there, sometimes not. Also it considers FTP connection failures as a packaging bug ! even changing the Source line causes the same declined request, as do omitting the url and just using %{name}-%{version}.tar.bz2. I understand that the purpose of the check is to verify the authenticity of the file, however failing servers or under-recovery sites are none of our business. Thanks for taking a look at this :-P -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] cyrus-sasl, the package that rules them all?
by Gerald Pfeifer 23 Dec '11

23 Dec '11

So, one of these days I figured I'd make the installation on one of my systems a bit slimmer, and I really don't need an IMAP server on that machine. tomonaga# rpm -qa | grep cyrus-sasl cyrus-sasl-gssapi-2.1.25-17.2.x86_64 cyrus-sasl-plain-2.1.25-17.2.x86_64 cyrus-sasl-saslauthd-2.1.25-17.2.x86_64 cyrus-sasl-crammd5-2.1.25-17.2.x86_64 cyrus-sasl-2.1.25-17.2.x86_64 cyrus-sasl-32bit-2.1.25-17.2.x86_64 cyrus-sasl-digestmd5-2.1.25-17.2.x86_64 Alas, when removing cyrus-sasl, zypper is inclined to remove quite a bit more including the kernel, Firefox, and a load of others?

[opensuse-factory] Check in review delay: Vacation Christmas and New Year`s Eve 2011/2012
by Lars Vogdt 20 Dec '11

20 Dec '11

Dear Packagers, during the time from the 24th Dec 2011 until 08th Jan 2012 (Christmas/New Year´s Eve) many teams and departments inside the SUSE Linux Products GmbH will be on vacation or can only offer limited services. This affects also the "autobuild-team" you might know as reviewers for your packages submitted to Factory (and other released distributions). While some of us are still in the office to get the most annoying and security bugs fixed and out to you as our customers, most of us are using this period to spend some time aside of computers and with their friends and families. As result, packages in openSUSE:Factory might stay a bit longer in the "review" state as you can expect in normal times. Please be not so angry with us in this case - just do the same and use this time for regeneration and preparation for the upcoming openSUSE year. We wish you and your families a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Ah: and remember to have a lot of fun! ;-) Lars -- Lars Vogdt <Lars.Vogdt(a)suse.com> - OPS Engineering Services Teamlead - SUSE Linux Products GmbH - GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer Maxfeldstraße 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany - HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] namespace for system users - tor

The request mentioned above has been merged manually to devel:openSUSE:Factrory:rpmlint / rpmlint by dirkmueller and the change is now pending to be added to openSUSE:Factory - #97074 The packages indirectly involved are network / tor and openSUSE:Factory / tor. Debian uses "debian-tor". The upstream sources specify: "_tor" in a sample spec file, other online examples use tor_d / daemon for the uid/gid. I agree in general that there is potential for conflicts. This, however, is not a new problem with "tor", but also with "amanda" and "jonas" which were already registered and are obviously far more popular. These are legacy and Ludwig proposed guidelines for new packages only. I don't see an immediate packaging issue, but as this is a new package to factory I am willing to update if there is consensus in -factory as to rules for the naming of daemon users for new packages, or at least regarding this particular package.

[opensuse-factory] conflicting files and directories
by Wolfgang Rosenauer 19 Dec '11

19 Dec '11

Hi, I found some of my packages failing in Factory because of the new conflicting files check. While I think this is basically a "good" check I found that in my case it makes sense. ERROR: /usr/lib/xulrunner-9 is packaged in both mozilla-js and xulrunner, and the packages do not conflict I've thought about doing it differently for a moment but still I think this is the correct way of packaging in that case. Also I remember we have tons of packages installing the same directories because it just makes sense but this. Therefore the question how can I disable that check and if I cannot, I'd need a recommendation what to do instead.

[opensuse-factory] Still openSUSE 12.1 - NetworkManager does it worst....

Howdy all, *Before* reading my mail, please note: openSUSE 11.4 ran perfect on my machine, after the upgrade to 12.1, networkmanager doesn't run at all.I can't connect to my router anymore (which worked yesterday, even with 12.1). The result is a completely angry user, who just wants his sane and working 11.4-like system back. Please excuse my offending mail, but I'm boiling totally. My problem: After the upgrade, NetworkManager doesn't ran anymore. I did some searching and fixed the problem. Now, today, I started my machine but NM can't connect anymore. It just says something like: Wait for authorization On 11.4 it used to be KWallet which asked my a password for NM. With 12.1 it's a KDE-su like one. Does anyone else has the problem? I'm writing from my notebook because my workstation isn't connected anymore.

[opensuse-factory] RFC: Browser independent provides (fate#313084)
by Michal Vyskocil 16 Dec '11

16 Dec '11

Hi all, I got a bug about icedtea-web is not installed by default https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=737105 I am sure that instead of relying on patterns, the problem can be solved very easily in icedtea-web package itself Supplements: packageand($BROWSER:java-openjdk) will push the package when browser and JRE is installed. However what is the $BROWSER? To my suprise we have 8(!) different browsers in Factory atm. But maintaing a list of several changing (security team might decide 8 more or less unmaintained browsers is too much) Supplements does not sound sexy for me, so I wrote a FATE#313084 Universal rpm symbol for browsers https://features.opensuse.org/313084 In short I propose add 1.) One common symbol for all browsers 'browser', 'browser-plugin', or 'browser(plugin)' 2.) Rendering engine specific one 'gecko' or 'browser(gecko)', 'webkit' and 'presto' Please share your opinion here or in the FATE. Thanks Michal Vyskocil

[opensuse-factory] New request "declined" handling in OBS
by Adrian Schröter 16 Dec '11

16 Dec '11

I want to inform you about a planned change regarding request declined handling. It was raised as blocking issue that the request creator may not see a rejection (request set to "declined" state by target). While we send out mails by default via hermes, it may get missed. Also the pull model is not really accessable here. So we decided to follow other systems like github, where you have to act on declined requests. This means: 1) We show request on the "my work" webui page and on "osc my rq". 2) To get rid of these requests on that page you have basically three options: * revoke: You accept that this was the wrong way basically * superseded: You submitted an newer improved version * reopen: You disagree and ask back to take the request as it is. However this means that suddenly older "declined" requests will pop up at your place. You can see how this looks alike on the stage instance: https://build.opensuse.org/stage/home/my_work The new webui also offers to revoke or to re-open the request again. The osc in openSUSE:Tools:Unstable is supporting this as well and also offers to "supersede" requests in declined state when you submit a request. We consider also to change all requests from "declined" to "revoked" during deployment, so only new requests will popup. Please tell us your opinion about this change. thanks adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH email: adrian(a)suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

Good Afternoon. I have been trying to do a distribution update for Tumbleweed and most of the packages seem to be missing. My system want's to downgrade about 100 packages including the kernel. I am not sure if this is something to do with my configuration or if there are currently only 26 packages being built for Tumbleweed (https://build.opensuse.org/project/packages?project=openSUSE%3ATumbleweed) Is there something wrong with the build/build service or am I looking in the wrong place?

by Cristian Rodríguez 15 Dec '11

Hi: I cannot find any reference about $SUBJECT, is it possible to use auditd for getting logs about what capabilities a process X requires ? I have found a kernel module called "capable_probe" but it is not working nowdays.

[opensuse-factory] hald-addon-stor fails to suspend in 12.1

I've pasted the trace here: <https://gist.github.com/1475792> I can't seem to get a reliable test case, hald-addon-stor seems to fail to sleep after 5-6 suspend-to-ram cycles, but I'm not sure what the behavior I'm doing to periodically encounter the error. :( Not sure what to do about this one :/ - R.

[opensuse-factory] VLC from KDE4 Factory repo vs Packman?
by C 13 Dec '11

13 Dec '11

Just curious... does the VLC that we can install from the openSUSE Factory repo actually play anything? I was beating my head against the wall here today trying to figure out why VLC was unable to play anything on my openSUSE 12.1 install. Normally VLC is the be-all-play-all application on any OS. I tried everything I could think of until it hit me to check where it was installed from... and it was installed from the KDE4 playground Factory repo. I switched over to the VLC from Packman all all my multimedia started working again. This leads me to ask... since VLC in the Factory repo is so severely crippled that it appears to be completely unusable, why is anyone even bothering to put it in there? I understand (and hate) the whole argument around codecs etc... that's not what I am asking here... If the player cannot be used for the vast majority of the videos is it worth the time and effort of including it in Factory?

[opensuse-factory] SuSEconfig nohelp
by Felix Miata 10 Dec '11

10 Dec '11

Usage message and man page both refer to "modules", but provide no apparent way to discover what modules exist. How is one supposed to discover what this utility does and can do? The usual switches --help, --? -? -help, -module <emptystring>. The only things it does that are obvious to me are fonts and permissions, though not their module names. Does it do anything else? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive." Proverbs 16:21 (New Living Translation) Team OS/2 ** Reg.

[opensuse-factory] debugfs mounted by default - necessary?
by Marcus Meissner 09 Dec '11

Hi, is it necessary that "debugfs" is mounted by default? It exposes too much of the kernel readable (and so potentially exploitable) to the non-root user.

[opensuse-factory] changes to Factory w/o devel project
by Wolfgang Rosenauer 07 Dec '11

07 Dec '11

Hi, did I miss a note? Why are Factory packages changed w/o going through the devel project again? This is very annoying as my workflow is not to track Factory and do my modifications but Factory is the last step in my workflow where changes end up. And even worse I wouldn't know about the changes at all if I wouldn't monitor opensuse-commit@. So my next submit to *:Factory and later on to openSUSE:Factory would just revert the changes (if Factory maintainers wouldn't notice what they probably would).

Hi, seems that bugzilla setup for 12.2 is still broken. There are still components in 12.2 which default to bnc-team-mozilla@ while _only_ the "Firefox" component should point there.

[opensuse-factory] libgadu and kdenetwork
by todd rme 05 Dec '11

05 Dec '11

I have been trying to get kdenetwork to detect libgadu for gadu protocol support without success. libgadu is available, and it is in the buildrequires. Here is the cmake message: -- checking for module 'libgadu' -- found libgadu, version 1.11.0 -- Found LIBGADU: /usr/lib64/libgadu.so grep: /usr/local/include/libgadu.h: No such file or directory -- libgadu must be compiled with pthreads support Note that libgadu IS being built with pthreads support enabled. Also note that cmake appears to be searching /usr/local/include/. Include files are not installed there, they are installed in /usr/include/, and kdenetwork is told to search in /usr/include, it searches in /usr/include for every other package it needs, and libgadu.pc says to look in /usr/include. I looked at the cmakelists.txt files and couldn't find anything obviously wrong. Does anyone have any ideas what might be going on here? -Todd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

I can't find it on OBS is it somewhere? if not I can package it. I have no packager experience, but there is already a rpm available on the author web site and the program is python, so this should not be too difficult. this programm needs ffmpeg2theora that I don't find. I may be able to package it also. is there any where a home for this program? May I package it in obs? or in packman? thanks jkdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org
