[opensuse-factory] Tumbleweed / python-kdebase4
by Achim Gratz 22 Jun '12

22 Jun '12

It appears that the latest build in Tumbleweed downgraded python-kdebase4 from 4.8.3-5.1 to 4.8.2-7.1 — of course since everything else is at 4.8.3 this breaks dependencies. Looking at the build log dosn't provide a clue as to why it has downgraded, so could someone else please have a look at what is going on with that package? The source package in the repo is at 4.8.3 like it should.

[opensuse-factory] Interoperability of packages from different repos

Hi! Let's discuss this bugreport and the reply I received. https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=765013 I personally think the packages should not broke when dependencies are satisfied. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] About the Live CDs (PLEASE READ)
by Stephan Kulow 22 Jun '12

22 Jun '12

Hi, The beta has no libreoffice and no gimp on the live cd - mainly because their dependencies got blocked (ghostscript and jdk). Now I tried how much space we need to save to be at 700MB and it's roughly 80MB, that we are over. So I wonder: should we screw the medium CD and go officially for 1GB sticks as our medium? (or require DVD medium for non-usb). The alternative is saving these 80MB by picking something to block. For your convenience, this is the list of the largest packages on KDE.i586 - sizes will differ for the other variants of course. -rw-r--r-- 1 107 109 3,4M Apr 23 11:04 ghostscript-fonts-std.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 107 109 3,4M Jun 7 04:54 bootsplash-branding-openSUSE.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 107 109 3,6M Jun 6 15:49 cpp47.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 399 399 3,7M Apr 23 10:17 libqt4.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 399 399 3,9M Mai 21 09:18 python-base.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 107 109 4,1M Jun 7 04:54 wallpaper-branding-openSUSE.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 399 399 4,7M Mai 9 20:31 kdepim4.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 399 399 4,7M Apr 23 10:22 qt4-qtscript.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 399 399 4,7M Apr 23 08:03 libicu49.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 399 399 5,4M Mai 22 15:20 libwebkitgtk-1_0-0.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 399 399 5,6M Apr 23 10:53 libQtWebKit4.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 107 109 5,8M Jun 1 06:54 perl.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 107 109 5,8M Jun 1 21:25 libreoffice-help-en-US.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 399 399 5,9M Mai 26 12:43 glibc-locale.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 107 109 6,3M Feb 18 13:36 yast2-theme-openSUSE.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 399 399 6,3M Mai 10 15:31 kdebase4-runtime.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 399 399 6,5M Mai 22 11:58 gimp.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 399 399 6,6M Apr 23 09:54 k3b.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 107 109 6,7M Mai 31 17:07 libkde4.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 399 399 6,9M Mai 29 10:07 cups.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 399 399 7,1M Apr 23 08:50 mysql-community-server.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 107 109 7,4M Jun 2 02:36 libreoffice-calc.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 399 399 8,3M Mai 10 16:51 kdebase4-workspace.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 107 109 9,1M Apr 23 08:51 xorg-x11-fonts-core.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 107 109 9,7M Mai 9 17:08 oxygen-icon-theme.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 399 399 11M Apr 23 10:17 libqt4-x11.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 107 109 12M Jun 1 20:41 kernel-firmware.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 399 399 14M Mai 22 11:11 ghostscript.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 107 109 15M Jun 6 16:45 MozillaFirefox.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 107 109 18M Mai 31 16:19 amarok.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 107 109 38M Jun 1 10:23 kernel-default.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 107 109 74M Jun 2 02:36 libreoffice.rpm There are some packages you can't pick and there are packages that will free more space than there value due to their dependency list. But as you can see, libreoffice and it's subpackages (plus their dependencies) is worth ~20% of the live cd space. So realistically, we have two choices: live CD without libreoffice or live USB with libreoffice. *Or* we find a way to reduce the size of packages by splitting things out that are optional and don't need to be on the live cd (I can hear you say documentation :) Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Current status of Live CDs
by Larry Finger 22 Jun '12

22 Jun '12

This contribution is not discussing the relative merits of various distributions. It is only reporting on the current state of the Live CDs. At about 16:00 UTC on June 19, I did an 'osc update' of the Live CD project and used 'osc build' commands to build the resulting Gnome and KDE 64-bit Live CD images. Both images built without error, and both booted with qemu-kvm. As discussed earlier, neither image will fit on a standard 80 minute/700 MB CD. The KDE version is 738 MiB and the Gnome one is 742 MiB, thus they could be burned to a 90 minute/800 MB blank as long as the user has suitable blanks and burning program. The Gnome CD boots without problems using the standard 512 MB RAM available with qemu-kvm (no swap space). With no swap space available, the KDE version needs roughly 784 MB (712 MB is not enough). Although the KDE version will boot with 512 MB and swap space (tested with a VBox VM), the resulting paging makes it really slow. I recommend that the 12.2 Release Notes make the memory requirements clear. If someone is working on the specs for a lighter-weight LXDE CD, or some other desktop, please let me know. If not, I will try to put together a spec file that will result in a Live system that fits on a 700 MB blank with LibreOffice included.

[opensuse-factory] Tumbleweed / NetworkManager
by Achim Gratz 21 Jun '12

21 Jun '12

Distribution update from Tumbleweed installs 0.9.0.2-4.2, which is then immediately replaced with 0.9.1+0.9.0-1.6.1 from openSUSE-current Updates via a security patch openSUSE-2012-233. I seem to remember that there was some versioning confusion and 0.9.1 doesn't really exist and the package in Tumbleweed might actually be the current one — in which case I'd need to lock the patch, just like openSUSE-2011-25-1, openSUSE-2011-80-1 and openSUSE-2012-15-1, which would try to downgrade packages that have been updated in Tumbleweed.

[opensuse-factory] OBS Maintenanced enabled for 12.2
by Marcus Meissner 21 Jun '12

21 Jun '12

Hi folks, As coolo has split off a openSUSE:12.2 project from Factory, I have also enabled the OBS Maintenance for 12.2 now. Coolo (I understand) will handpick updates from Factory for the 12.2 tree as he did in previous releases, but you can also submit updates via normal maintenancerequests. We did consider doing this exclusively via maintenancerequests, but this would be too much work on the maintenance team and also rebuilds would not be possible as-easy anymore. We apply the same rules to 12.2 as for the others, meaning changes entries with good description and bnc# etc. We can only accept fixes that do not affect building of other packages as the maintenance updates are self-contained. Please note that NEEDINFO maintenance(a)opensuse.org is not strictly required anymore these days, but if you have any questions, please mail us there. The merging of those updates into 12.2 until the release is not fully clarified, we will work this out in the next weeks. Likely coolo will sr them somehow. So using "osc mbranch PACKAGE" will check PACKAGE out for 11.4, 12.1 and 12.2 now and can get fixes.

[opensuse-factory] Status: RC1
by Stephan Kulow 21 Jun '12

21 Jun '12

Hi, It's monday morning and I can't see how we can finish RC1 this week - seriously, I can't even see how we can do it this month ;( Most annoying bug nr. 1 is fixed since yesterday (hopefully), but the crash with /usr is still there and hasn't seen activity for 14 days ;( bnc#752796 The live cd I almost got back in shape by - you guessed it - removing a whole bunch of packages. Working DVDs we could not yet produce though. I spent a fair share of the weekend to get texlive back in shape for factory, but I have 120 failing packages - webyast and the go stack being biggest offenders in numbers.

Hello all, Is there a plan to expand the Yast Boot Loader using Grub2? We would like to edit the /boot/Grub2/grub.cfg file. The same way that we were able to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst. Cheers!

[opensuse-factory] COSCUP
by Jos Poortvliet 20 Jun '12

20 Jun '12

Heya all, You might know we've got COSCUP coming - and the CfP is officially closed but we can surely still use a few more proposals to have something to choose from. So if you want to talk about openSUSE at COSCUP in Taiwan, submit a proposal! http://news.opensuse.org/?p=13126 Send proposals to cfp(a)opensuse.org please. I also want to mention that you can ask the openSUSE Travel Committee for financial support for going there - it's why we have a OTC! Especially speakers are very likely to receive travel sponsorship. See http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Travel_Support_Program /Jos
