Coolo, For a number of days, the Gnome Live CD failed to build with "nothing provides" messages. These were fixed when I checked today due to updates of the package lists.

[opensuse-factory] rpmbuild brp-compress not considering possible man locations/installation prefix
by dieter 08 Jun '12

08 Jun '12

Hi, when I build private rpm files I use the prefix /usr/local to keep the files separate from the official rpms. This results that the man pages are put to /usr/local/share/man/* The MANPATH at my system points to /usr/local/man:/usr/local/share/man:/usr/share/man Some Opensuse versions ago rpmbuild started to fail with my *.spec files at the end when it checked for unpackaged files. The reason was roughly that the man files were not gzipped and did not match the created file list. As a workaround I inserted some lines in my spec files to perform the gzipping of the man pages. Now I had a deeper check and I think the problem is the file /usr/lib/rpm/brp-compress which should do the compression, but it only searches the paths ./usr/man/man* ./usr/man/*/man* ./usr/info ./usr/share/man/man* ./usr/share/man/*/man* ./usr/share/info ./usr/kerberos/man ./usr/X11R6/man/man* ./usr/lib/perl5/man/man* ./usr/share/doc/*/man/man* ./usr/lib/*/man/man* without considering the chosen installation prefix. I made a small patch in brp-compress which only includes additionally the ./usr/local/man ./usr/local/share/man 44,45c44 < ./usr/share/doc/*/man/man* ./usr/lib/*/man/man* \ < ./usr/local/share/man/* ./usr/local/man/* --- > ./usr/share/doc/*/man/man* ./usr/lib/*/man/man* and with this the workaround in the spec files is no longer needed. Is it unsupported to build rpms with prefix different from /usr ? Or is it a bug in brp-compress?

[opensuse-factory] tumbleweed: xfce4-appfinder package out of date results in broken alt-f2 shortcut
by Jörn Nettingsmeier 07 Jun '12

07 Jun '12

hi *! first of all, thanks for providing tumbleweed - i have upgraded two of my machines, and it's been a very smooth ride so far. there seems to be a minor b0rkage in the xfce4 packages. pretty much everything is at 4.10.x now, except for xfce4-appfinder (which iiuc provides the command to deal with alt-f2 command launch requests, a feature which i like to use a lot). the outdated appgfinder (still at 4.8) cannot reasonably be installed in tumbleweed, since it would effectively downgrade all of xfce4 to 4.8. see here: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/Tumbleweed/standard/x86… i guess the xfce4-appfinder package has just been omitted... if you require further feedback or testing, please cc: me, i'm not currently subscribed to the list. best, jörn -- Jörn Nettingsmeier Lortzingstr. 11, 45128 Essen, Tel. +49 177 7937487 Meister für Veranstaltungstechnik (Bühne/Studio) Tonmeister VDT http://stackingdwarves.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Anyone dualbooting 12.1 and 12.2?
by Martin Schlander 07 Jun '12

07 Jun '12

Has anyone tried installing 12.2 beta (using grub2) in dualboot with an existing 12.1 system (using legacy grub)? If yes, does it work right out of the box? Is it seamless? (like traditionally dualbooting multiple openSUSE versions all using legacy grub). Anything I should be aware of? I'd like to test 12.2 beta on my real hardware, by installing it on my test partition. But I'm scared of being left unable to boot my 12.1 production system. So I'd be happy to hear if others have good (or bad) experiences with similar setups. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] CruiseControl: contrib repo
by Graham Anderson 06 Jun '12

06 Jun '12

I have let maintenence of the CruiseControl package slip. I don't think I packaged it well in any case because I wanted the tests to pass but had to patch out some of the network units so that it would build on OBS. I found it hard to pacakge the http based interface and additionally the spec file is very messy, my apologies for that but I'm not really an au fait java hacker. Having said that, I always found CruiseControl to be a very efficient, flexible and non opinionated CI tool; but sadly I find myself and my current clients migrating away from that world. To cut a long story short, I will not be spending any more time on the package and it already intermitently fails on i586. Unless anyone else has a use for CruiseControl and can bring the package up to date, it will likely fall out of our distro as contrib is phased out. If you use this package, please update your CruiseControl from the project release in future: http://cruisecontrol.sourceforge.net/ Cheers the noo, Graham

I am not sure that the Live CDs have been hassle free! > The House of Cards called openSUSE about to collapse in the foreseeable future? For the Doom-and-Gloom crowd, the answer is "perhaps". As I see it, there have been many problems. Perhaps there is an overall shortage of people to do the required tasks, and something may have to be dropped. There were also problems with the backend storage system and the entire build system that happened at a critical time. The boot system of the Live CDs is different than the other products, and it is difficult to debug. After working with building my own Live CDs for 5 days, I have learned a lot, but I still can do little more than report the symptoms to Coolo. Fixing anything will require a lot more knowledge. The specific problem with the Live CDs was related to the change in /usr that is part of 12.2. I have no idea why no new ones have been built. Both Gnome and KDE versions build here just fine.

[opensuse-factory] Broken profiling or aaa_base in Factory?
by Ilya Chernykh 06 Jun '12

06 Jun '12

Hi! Currently kdelibs3 fails in Factory because it cannot find libmcop.so.1 during build. But this file exists in the build system in directory /opt/kde3/lib/libmcop.so.1, this can be verified by the command "ls" before the "make". So is the library search path somehow broken in Factory? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

Either you have deliberately broken dependencies, or there is a packaging error. You can check system consistency with "zypper verify".

[opensuse-factory] ISO C11 support in 12.2?
by Carl-Daniel Hailfinger 05 Jun '12

05 Jun '12

Hi, is openSUSE 12.2 ready for ISO C11? AFAICS gcc 4.7 seems to be mostly ready for C11, but apparently glibc trunk has quite a few changes for C11 support which are missing in the latest glibc release. A possible quick check is to run gcc -std=c11 (with appropriate warnings switched on) for source code which contains a call to strdup(). That function is part of C11, but not of C99. If your C library is not C11 capable and if your compiler is not using a builtin, that should trigger a warning.

[opensuse-factory] Security or Convenience? Defining a better policy
by Andreas Jaeger 05 Jun '12

05 Jun '12

I just put the following on my blog as well (http://jaegerandi.blogspot.de) and look forward to your help defining a better policy: The openSUSE security concepts have been changed gradually over the years with new tools like PolicyKit, PolKit and its usage in system tools. It's time now to step back, and review what we have and want. Marcus and Ludwig from the SUSE security team and myself have discusssed over the last weeks a bit and like to open this to a broader round now to get your help defining what needs to be done. = Challenges we face = Administrating a system in a secure way is always balancing the needs and requests of security, convenience and usability. There's also the additional challenge that upstream projects often have a different view on either of these and therefore make different decisions and influencing upstream projects is quite often a difficult task. = Background = Linus Torvalds in his Google+ rant (https://plus.google.com/u/0/102150693225130002912/posts/1vyfmNCYpi5) "I first spent weeks arguing on a bugzilla that the security policy of requiring the root password for changing the timezone and adding a new wireless network was moronic and wrong. I think the wireless network thing finally did get fixed, but the timezone never did - it still asks for the admin password. And today Daniela calls me from school, because she can't add the school printer without the admin password. ... So here's a plea: if you have anything to do with security in a distro, and think that my kids (replace "my kids" with "sales people on the road" if you think your main customers are businesses) need to have the root password to access some wireless network, or to be able to print out a paper, or to change the date-and-time settings, ..." = How to continue? = We've collected a couple of use cases for the administration of a local system at: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Security_use_cases For each use case we added a short security evaluation but in most cases don't give a recommendation on what to do. Call for action: Review and discuss http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Security_use_cases using the following questions: * Are there any use cases missing? * Is there any thing missing in the specific use cases? * How can we solve these use cases so that a system is easy to setup for the most common usage scenarios?

It's a bit annoying, if you ask me :/ Hm, AFAIK the only packages depending directly on ck vs systemd-logind should be the session manager and policykit. Support in the session manager is only needed for full multiseat support (i.e. exporting SEAT settings), which leaves policykit. It should not be to difficult make pk fall back to ck, as the ck code is already there. I am currently running 12.1 with both console-kit-daemon and systemd-logind active (which is the default) and the logind only policykit. For a single local user, ck and logind show the same information, as soon as there are multiple logins at least logind provides the correct information. If there is interest I could include the ck fallback into my pk package. Any chance to get this included in 12.2?

It does not support multiseat (only one active session at a time), it does not support remote sessions (e.g. via LTSP) (unable to find the correct session at all). Whereas the former at least shows the pk authorization dialog, although for the wrong 'active' state, the latter is unable to show a dialog at all. These problems can be solved by using systemd-logind. This needs a newer/patched polkit package. Anyone interested in testing this can find one in home:StefanBruens:branches:Base:System . Session state can be queried using systemd-loginctl. Pros of systemd-loginctl: it works Cons: it *might* depend on systemd, but I have not tested this.

[opensuse-factory] Status: Beta
by Stephan Kulow 04 Jun '12

04 Jun '12

Hi, I just updated the opensuse-release field to say Beta 1 as the live cds work ok (even though there are some glitches) and the DVDs can be installed too (even though you don't want to create a /usr partion at the moment). All in all something I can release tomorrow *fingers crossed*.

[opensuse-factory] Really too much to ask for a working Software Management system ??
by Raymond Wooninck 03 Jun '12

03 Jun '12

Since the update of Factory to GCC 4.7, the YaST software management system has not been working anymore. I have seen numerous bug reports on this, but it seems as if the YaST maintainers are pointing to the Zypp Team. So instead of working together and providing a solution for this, we as users are still stuck with a non working Software Management system. Despite that we have already reached the 12.2 Beta 1 milestone. Are we really expecting from our users that they will fall-back to a command line tool with reduced functionality ?? I think this is the biggest Show- Stopper that openSUSE 12.2 has at the moment and I really hope that the YaST and Zypper teams getting their acts together and providing a working solution before 12.2 is released. It would be really strange to see a release without the possibility to update the system properly. I apologize for the tone of the message, but I am really getting pissed off with the current situation around YaST and if this is not resolved soon, then my system for one will never see the official release of 12.2.

[opensuse-factory] Beta 1 installer still hangs when Searching for Linux partitions during installation
by Roman Bysh 03 Jun '12

03 Jun '12

Hello all, The installer has been hanging when it reaches "Searching for Linux partitions" from M1 - M3 to Beta 1. The only way to get around this is to add "acpi=off" to the Boot options or select "NO ACPI". I have tested the installers from 11.3 right up to 12.1 and this problem _never_ _existed_ before. Not even in the Milestones. I have submitted a Bugzilla report when 12.2 M3 came out. My CPU is an Intel Quad-core Q6600. Asus P5Q mobo with 4 GB of RAM. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

[opensuse-factory] network startup gone nuts
by Felix Miata 03 Jun '12

03 Jun '12

sysvinit-init x86 system: Today I did a zypper dup on an M2 system. If I boot the new 3.4 kernel, eth0 doesn't show up from 'ifconfig -a', tried after seeing "unable to resolve hostnames" on tty1 while finding a perfectly valid /etc/resolv.conf. Booting either 3.4 or prior (3.3) kernel, init spends a bunch of time playing games with fstab's cifs and nfs entries, both noauto and auto (which I have over 100 of), as if needing to stat every file, dir and subdir, tremendously lengthening boot time, regardless whether eth0 came up or not. tty1 does not show network as a failed service, even though there is no eth0 and thus no functional network. Lack of network seems to cause clock error = to TZ offset, only with 3.4, which in turn causes numerous "mount time in the future" and "you must specify filesystem type errors" on partitions. http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/SUSE/Factory/ contains /var/log/ boot.msg boot.omsg messages ntp -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
