[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? Known problem? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+… [View More]

[opensuse-factory] Kernel for 11.4?
by Jeff Mahoney 22 Sep '11

22 Sep '11

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all - Since technically we're in feature freeze for 11.4, I thought I'd put this out for discussion. Factory is currently using 2.6.36 which was released 3 weeks ago. Upstream versions tend to take about 10-11 weeks, on average, to release. The scheduled release for the first openSUSE RC is Jan 20. The scheduled release for the first RC is Jan 20. The typical development time for a kernel release, on average, is about 10-11 weeks. That puts … [View More]the release of 2.6.37 around Dec 29 to Jan 12. That sounds like kind of a tight window, but the reality is that the differences in the later kernel RCs tend to be small and fix bugs. The "real" development happens in -rc1, which was released about two weeks ago. Later -rcs serve to stabilize the development that went into -rc1. So, the the feature freeze aspect of it will be a one-shot, when I update to -rc1. (Actually, I hardly ever update to -rc1 and instead use - -rc2 which tends to be more stable). I've already done the merge work for 2.6.37-rc1 since the master kernel always tracks the latest upstream. Xen is the lone exception, as it usually is, but Jan Beulich has been great about getting that completed shortly after I do the update. This time might be a little more difficult because much of the Xen code has been merged into the mainline kernel so there's some sorting out to be done. As far as testing goes, we're still early enough that we won't lose a lot of effort. I'd update Factory to 2.6.37-rc2 as soon as it is released upstream, which should be this week. Our usual corps of dedicated testers can dig in quickly. In my experience, though, the number of testers drastically increases around the RC1 release. I wish it weren't so, but it is. So revving the kernel now isn't likely to toss out a lot of testing. The biggest "feature" I'm going for is not having to backport fixes from 2.6.37. The BKL removal patches and the VFS scalability patches are going to improve performance on multicore systems. The removal of I/O barriers should also be pretty noticeable but I haven't had time to verify that yet. So, opinions? - -Jeff Features that are going into 2.6.37: - - The inode portion of the VFS scalability patches - - More BKL removal, including parts of the core kernel - - Block I/O can be throttled via cgroups - - Simple pNFS support - - In-kernel PPTP (tunneling) acceleration - - "Lazy" inode table creation for ext4 to allow faster fs creation - - Batched discard support, which allows the file system to advise the block layer to use the TRIM command. This allows online TRIMs, but is only implemented in ext4 so far. - - Xen dom0 support (mostly) - - The usual round of bug fixes. - - fanotify - - Block barriers have been removed[1] Drivers: - - Systems and processors: - Flexibility Connect boards - Telechips TCC ARM926-based systems - Telechips TCC8000-SDK development kits - Vista Silicon Visstrim_m10 i.MX27-based boards - LaCie d2 Network v2 NAS boards - Qualcomm MSM8x60 RUMI3 emulators - Qualcomm MSM8x60 SURF eval boards - Eukrea CPUIMX51SD modules - Freescale MPC8308 P1M boards - APM APM821xx evaluation boards - Ito SH-2007 reference boards - IBM "SMI-free" realtime BIOS's - MityDSP-L138 and MityDSP-1808 systems - OMAP3 Logic 3530 LV SOM boards - OMAP3 IGEP modules - taskit Stamp9G20 CPU modules - aESOP Samsung S5PV210-based Torbreck boards - - Block: - Chelsio T4 iSCSI offload engines - Cypress Astoria USB SD host controllers - Marvell PXA168/PXA910/MMP2 SD host controllers - ST Microelectronics Flexible Static Memory Controllers - - Input: - Roccat Pyra gaming mice - UC-Logic WP4030U, WP5540U and WP8060U tablets - several varieties of Waltop tablets - OMAP4 keyboard controllers - NXP Semiconductor LPC32XX touchscreen controllers - Hanwang Art Master III tablets - ST-Ericsson Nomadik SKE keyboards - ROHM BU21013 touch panel controllers - TI TNETV107X touchscreens - - Miscellaneous: - Freescale eSPI controllers - Topcliff platform controllher hub devices - OMAP AES crypto accelerators - NXP PCA9541 I2C master selectors - Intel Clarksboro memory controller hubs - OMAP 2-4 onboard serial ports - GPIO-controlled fans - Linear Technology LTC4261 Negative Voltage Hot Swap Controller I2C interfaces - TI BQ20Z75 gas gauge ICs - OMAP TWL4030 BCI chargers - ROHM ROHM BH1770GLC and OSRAM SFH7770 combined ALS and proximity sensors - Avago APDS990X combined ALS and proximity sensors - Intersil ISL29020 ambient light sensors - Medfield Avago APDS9802 ALS sensor modules - Basic, memory-mapped GPIO controllers - Intel Topcliff GPIO controllers - Intel Moorestown/Medfield i2c controllers - IDT CPS Gen.2 SRIO RapidIO switches - Freescale i.MX DMA engines - ARM PrimeCell PL080 or PL081 DMA engines - Cypress West Bridge Astoria controllers - USB ENE card readers - Asahi Kasei AK8975 3-axis magnetometers - OLPC XO display controller devices - Analog Devices AD799x analog/digital converters - Winbond/Nuvoton W83795G/ADG hardware monitoring chips - Flarion OFDM usb and pcmcia modems - Maxim MAX8952 and MAX8998 Power Management ICs - National Semiconductors LP3972 PMIC regulators - Broadcom BCM63xx hardware watchdogs - - Network: - Brocade 1010/1020 10Gb Ethernet cards - Conexant CX82310 USB ethernet ports - Atheros AR9170 "otus" 802.11n USB devices - Topcliff PCH Gigabit Ethernet controllers - Intel Topcliff platform controller hub CAN interfaces - Technologic Systems TS-CAN1 PC104 peripheral boards - SBE wanPMC-2T3E3 interfaces - RealTek RTL8712U (RTL8192SU) Wireless LAN NICs (replaces older rtl8712 driver) - Atheros AR6003 wireless interface controllers - Beeceem USB Wimax adapters - Broadcom bcm43xx wireless chipsets - - Sound: - Marvell 88pm860x codecs - TI WL1273 FM radio codecs - HP iPAQ RX1950 audio devices - Native Instruments Traktor Kontrol S4 audio devices - Aztech Sound Galaxy AZT1605 and AZT2316 ISA sound cards - Wolfson Micro WM8985 and WM8962 codecs - Wolfson Micro WM8804 S/PDIF transceivers - Samsung S/PDIF controllers - Cirrus Logic EP93xx AC97 controllers - Intel MID SST DSP devices - - USB: Intel Langwell USB OTG transceivers - YUREX "leg shake" sensors - USB-attached SCSI devices - - Video4Linux2: remotes using the RC-5 (streamzap) protocol - Konica chipset-based cameras - Sharp IX2505V silicon tuners - LME2510 DM04/QQBOX USB DVB-S boxes - Samsung s5h1432 demodulators - Several new Conexant cx23417-based boards - Nuvoton w836x7hg consumer infrared transceivers - OmniVision OV6650 sensors - OMAP1 camera interfaces - Siliconfile SR030PC30 VGA cameras - Sony imx074 sensors - VIA integrated chipset camera controllers - -Jeff [1] This is because they were a very big hammer that had a reputation for killing performance.

[opensuse-factory] libqt-* package links in tumbleweed
by Jiri Slaby 05 Jun '11

05 Jun '11

Hi Greg, libqt4-doc-devel and libqt4-sql-plugins should point to libqt4 sources in Tumbleweed, not in KDE:Qt. Otherwise they can get out of sync (the fixed libqt4-doc-devel/sql-plugins links from TW to KDE:Qt still point to the latest liqt4 sources in KDE:Qt, not fixed ones). I've fixed it for now. However could you modify your scripts to not update these packages the same as for kernel-<non-source>? thanks, -- js suse labs -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)… [View More]

[opensuse-factory] Can packages in the 11.4 standard or update repos build against tumbleweed?
by Dave Plater 03 Jun '11

03 Jun '11

Can packages in 11.4 standard or update repositories build against packages provided in the tumbleweed update repository.? I've filed bnc#696826 about 11.4's lv2core-devel's lv2config being unable to function due to a lack of package python-redland. The LV2 plugin system cannot be used at all if the package can't build against lv2core and slv2, I submitted new packages lv2core, slv2 and an updated redland package that included the python bindings before 11.4's release, lv2core is in the 11.4 … [View More]distribution but slv2 is still in review, here is it's history : 62079 State:declined By:autobuild When:2011-02-18T16:30:51 submit: multimedia:libs/slv2 -> openSUSE:Factory note: obsoleted by submitreq 62078 From: plater(new) Descr: Removed conflict for libslv2-8 62078 State:review By:coolo When:2011-03-28T16:14:46 submit: multimedia:libs/slv2 -> openSUSE:Factory From: plater(new) -> saschpe(review) Descr: Removed conflict for libslv2-8 60049 State:declined By:autobuild When:2011-02-18T16:30:43 submit: multimedia:libs/slv2 -> openSUSE:Factory From: plater(new) Descr: Add slv2-0.6.6-licencefix.patch to remove file with conflicting GPLv2 statement in the header.

There was a comment made in a reply during one of my many emails pleading for slv2 to be accepted that it was a duplicate of a Packman package and I replied that it's purpose was to enable multimedia applications to build with support for LV2 plugins and openSUSE packages cannot build against Packman packages. I'm busy updating qtractor from 0.7.8 to 0.7.9 the earlier version would have been in 11.4 had slv2 been present and now it seems that version 0.7.9 is also going to be blocked.

Maybe I violated an openSUSE rule inadvertently but if nobody explains what it was I may do it again. I'm passionate about openSUSE multimedia and I feel that it presents an important face of openSUSE.

[opensuse-factory] new openSUSE:* source processing method. PLEASE TEST !
by Adrian Schröter 02 Jun '11

02 Jun '11

Hello, I look for some more people who want to try our hopefully soon to be applied new source processing method for openSUSE:Factory and the maintenance updates to :Update projects. It should work good already, so you do not need to be brave ;) You may know that currently all package source submissions to Factory and friends get SUSE in-house be reviewed, re-validated and reformated. You can see this in the additional "autobuild" commits in the openSUSE:Factory commits. We plan to do … [View More]following changes in future: * We would like to do these steps out there and as soon as possible in future. This means in best case before any packager is commiting his changes the validating and reformating is done already. This avoids any possible merge problems, unnecessary commits and extra turn around times. * these services can be code stream specific (unlike current osc_source_validator). That means we will be able to do better checks in future for Factory then for maintenance updates (where we need to stay compatible). And we do not need to take care about non-SUSE code streams, eg. Fedora or MeeGo people can still work and submit their changes to their projects or write their own services. * In addition to existing checks, we want to track where upstream sources (tar balls) are comming from. So far we had the download_url source service, which downloaded files and stored them with _service: prefix what not everybody liked. The new and project wide working "download_files" service is just validate the URL's from the spec file. The new osc will commit these files as usual files and the server is just validating this. (People with low upstream bandwidth can still decide to skip the commit, the server will store it with prefix again.) So, if everybody is using this current osc & source service stack, the source services will be used to do these steps, but there will be no _service* file(s) in your package sources. And the last really SUSE in-house part of Factory development would be the legal review db, really everything else would be out there in build.o.o... How to test this ? ================== First of all you need the new services and a new osc installed. Please add the proper openSUSE:Tools project repo and install zypper in obs-service-download_files obs-service-format_spec_file obs-service-source_validator In addition to that please install "osc" from openSUSE:Tools:Unstable project. If you do not like to add the repo, just run osc getbinaries openSUSE:Tools:Unstable osc $YOUR_REPO $YOUR_ARCH and install the osc package manually. To activate this for your entire devel project (it would work also per package) do # osc co $YOUR_DEVEL_PROJECT _project # cd $YOUR_DEVEL_PROJECT/_project # cat > _service <<EOF <services> <service name="format_spec_file" mode="trylocal"/> <service name="download_files" mode="trylocal"/> <service name="source_validator" mode="trylocal"/> </services> EOF # osc addremove # osc ci -m "activate factory default source services" Afterwards these services running on "osc build" and "osc commit" actions, if not disabled via CLI switch. Reformated spec files will be uploaded directly and in case of validation errors, osc will abort before commit/build'ing. What happens to people with old osc version (0.130 and before) or just using the webui after activating these services ? Nothing. The services will run on the server only. => The source state will turn into "broken" if a validation error exists. => if tar ball is missing/different or spec file is different formated they will be visible with _service:* prefix again. How to get rid of them again ? Just anyone with a current osc stack will merge these changes automatically on next commit and the server side generated files will disappear again. If this testing phase works out fine, we will of course make a maintenance update for all these packages, so everybody should have a current stack. I have activated this already for the openSUSE:Tools* projects and everything seems to work. And I found out that 3 out of 3 random packages from openSUSE:Factory contain broken Source: $URL lines ;) Feel free to branch any openSUSE:Tools package into your branch and try to edit it. With the new osc you will use these local services automatically. -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH email: adrian(a)suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org [View Less]

I know the reason, but couldn't somebody design a feature that tells the user of their system that support is about to finish, or finished already? Add it to package kit or zypper or YaST. Or all.

[opensuse-factory] perl 5.14

Hi, I just submitted mls' perl 5.14 after checking the build failures in devel:languages:perl together with mls.

[opensuse-factory] New FATE#312321: drop blowfish and switch to sha512 as default hash
by Thorsten Kukuk 17 May '11

17 May '11

Hi, long time ago, when glibc did only support DES crypt(), we added libxcrypt with blowfish support to have a better default hash for local accounts. Meanwhile, glibc supports sha256 and sha512, thus I filled FATE#312321 to change the default password hash to sha512, drop blowfish from YaST2 and remove libxcrypt from the distribution to avoid maintaining the same code twice. As result, you cannot create new password hashes with blowfish, but as long as we have the glibc patch, you can still … [View More]

[opensuse-factory] xfprint&mousepad status (Tumbleweed broken packages)
by Jiri Slaby 17 May '11

Hi, these packages are broken in Tumbleweed: mousepad xfce4-panel-plugin-xfapplet xfprint It looks like all of them were deleted from factory (and moved to openSUSE:Dropped). As we have the latest xfce in Tumbleweed, I think those should be removed from Tumbleweed too, right? thanks, -- js suse labs -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Unicode support differs between python and python3
by Michal Vyskocil 17 May '11

17 May '11

Hi all, I noticed a difference in unicode support between python and python3. The first one is built with ucs4 support, the later with ucs2 support. That means python3 behaves differently with characters up to 65535 (2**16-1), because with UCS2 support it returns two characters. $ python -c 'print(len(unichr((2**16-1))))' 1 $ python -c 'print(len(unichr((2**16+10))))' 1 $ python3 -c 'print(len(chr((2**16-1))))' 1 $ python3 -c 'print(len(chr((2**16+10))))' 2 I am not sure if this difference … [View More]

Hi all, Any vague chance of getting the patch of Roumen Petrov applied? http://roumenpetrov.info/openssh/#features With this patch, one can enjoy the security feautures supplied digital certificates (crl, ocsp, ...), like the one's used by openssl, apache, openvpn, strongswan etc etc. pki support has been included for a long time in the commercial branch of ssh, but (i think) due to the conservative nature of the people of openbsd, who still seems to be in control of openssh, this patch … [View More]

[opensuse-factory] Desktop notifier for AppArmor
by Roger Luedecke 16 May '11

Even SELinux has this. It is bad news for people unfamiliar with AppArmor if it decides to block something. The average casual home user will find the e-mail notification not only complicated, but largely unnecessary. The YaST modules make AppArmor management relatively simple, now we just need to make knowing they need to be used simple.

[opensuse-factory] Tumbleweed and KSplice
by R. Tyler Croy 08 May '11

08 May '11

I've been testing and using Tumbleweed (with the intent on reviewing and recommending it on omgsuse.com) for a couple of weeks now and I've noticed a couple things: * LibreOffice seems to be updated ... all the time * Kernel updates *screw things up* for users I've run into the scenario a couple of times where my `zypper dup --from Tumbleweed` upgrades my kernel, and then before I can get around to a reboot, I need to log onto VPN or mount a FAT32 device. Both scenarios involving loading … [View More]

[opensuse-factory] Enabling haveged by default?
by Jeff Mahoney 07 May '11

07 May '11

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all - I just removed the network device entropy-generating patches from the kernel repo. They had to be explicitly enabled for use and were consistently refused for upstream acceptance. With no better hardware entropy source, they kept the pool full but are prone to third party manipulation via packet flooding. I noticed that since 11.4, we have installed haveged by default. Might it be a good idea to enable it by default as well? Perhaps … [View More]

[opensuse-factory] RFC: forbid _service files
by Stephan Kulow 05 May '11

05 May '11

Hi, After a series of broken packages because of _service files I would like to forbid them in openSUSE:Factory. So far I've seen the use of _service files in factory as an experiment (I happily joined), but I see this experiment as failed. What I would like to propose is: - ban recompress, download and tarscm as _services (everything else should have been banned before) - instead we verify the Source urls and make packages that have invalid URLs "broken", so you can't SR them to … [View More]

[opensuse-factory] Tumbleweed KDE problems being reverted
by Greg KH 05 May '11

05 May '11

Hi all, Well, so much for the KDE update in Tumbleweed. Due to some problems with it (i.e. I messed up and accidentally updated some packages to the 4.6.3 version while the rest were at 4.6.2), I've reverted it all, so soon everyone will see a big "downgrade" to the openSUSE 11.4 version of the KDE packages. I'll watch the 4.6.3 update and wait for that to settle down before adding it to Tumbleweed again. Sorry for the churn, but hey, due to the magic of zypper, this all "just works" even … [View More]

[opensuse-factory] [Tumbleweed] Missing KDE packages
by Sven Zallmann 05 May '11

05 May '11

Howdy folks, As of today, the KDE packages in Tumbleweed seem to be incomplete and/or some of them obsolete. Upon wanting to 'zypper dup' I found two packages making trouble: * libqt4-sql 4.7.3 (required by libqt4-sql-mysql 4.7.3, which is present in the repo). Tumbleweed repo carries libqt4-sql 4.7.2. * konqueror-plugins-lang 4.6.1, not present. Please provide this or any other version to match konqueror-plugins 4.6.1 present in the repo. Hearing about the status of these packages … [View More]

[opensuse-factory] new package js for Factory
by Wolfgang Rosenauer 05 May '11

Hi, because of the changing release and focus changes within the Mozilla project, (it's likely that) Mozilla XULRunner won't be maintained anymore. Therefore we are going to ship a pretty static Firefox again (even with libmozjs compiled into the the big xul blob). In the past some people expressed interest to have a decent standalone JS interpreter library available for linking into certain packages. With the above mentioned changes it's now time to create that one instead of exposing the … [View More]

[opensuse-factory] GCC 4.6 for 12.1
by Jeff Mahoney 05 May '11

05 May '11

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all - I know someone else mentioned this briefly WRT to Tumbleweed, but I'd like to bring up for discussion the adoption of gcc 4.6 for Factory. A bit of background. We currently maintain a kernel-trace flavor to allow people to make use of the tracing facilities. Historically, there has been overhead associated with these, which is why they were in their own flavor. Most users don't care about them, so there's no sense in slowing everyone … [View More]down to satisfy them. Over time, the maintainers of these facilities have worked to lower the overhead to the point where now dynamic ftrace only adds memory overhead. It uses gcc's profiling facility to call out to a function at the beginning of every function call to allow tracking. At boot, this is a function that returns immediately but during the boot process those calls are hot-patched to nop operations so that they carry virtually zero runtime overhead. This sounds great, right? There's one last bit, and that is actually the reason why ftrace is still disabled in our regular kernel flavors. The compiler's profiling feature calls the profiling function after the function prologue. That means that the stack pointer has already been advanced and since it can advance a different amount based on the needs of each function, we don't have an easy way to get the caller's stack frame back. It's needed to resolve where the caller was called from and the only way to do that is to dedicate a register to track the start of the current stack frame. Dedicating a register for this increases register contention and forces more accesses to CPU cache or main memory, slowing everything down. So, it's not worth it when most users will never actually take advantage of the feature that requires it. For some time, I've been trying to come up with ways to work around this so that the fast path stays fast and the tracing path takes any performance hit necessary. Until recently, the performance hit would've been too big to make it worthwhile. With gcc 4.6, we have the -mfentry option which moves the call to the profiling function *before* the function's prologue. This means that the caller's stack frame is still intact and we can resolve the caller's parent without issue. I've spent the past few days working up a proof of concept that takes advantage of this and doesn't require a dedicated register. It turns out that Steven Rostedt has already posted a patch set to do exactly this and he's targeting 2.6.40 for inclusion in the mainline kernel. For now it looks like it's x86-64 only but it should be ok for i386 as well. This would go a long way to eliminate the -trace flavor from our kernel packages. The benefits are multiple: It eliminates the maintenance of another kernel flavor, but it also allows everyone to use tracing facilities without installing a separate kernel release to do so. One last bit is needed, though, and that is for gcc to allow using -pg - -mfentry with -fomit-frame-pointers. Once that bit is taken care of then we can rid the kernel of the frame pointer requirement for ftrace and eliminate the -trace flavor entirely. - -Jeff - -- Jeff Mahoney SUSE Labs -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk263RwACgkQLPWxlyuTD7JhyQCfXcCcDjH0dYmnoguTCe+7J2FH YWkAn3+K1qintX3acivGSmUYCDVnDuqi =3BMz -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org [View Less]

[opensuse-factory] perl-Bootloader log is HUGE (slow kernel installation?)

[opensuse-factory] Where to file bugs against licensedigger?
by Vincent Untz 03 May '11

Hi, There's a new review step done when packages are submitted to Factory (maybe just for updates that look like a new branch of a package), that checks the licenses of the package. That's all call, except that it doesn't handle well forwarding packages with a _service: "reject": "checkout failed: _service file without _service:* files" That's most probably because the review script was run before the build service ran the services.
