I understand.
I just would like to add the following to http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Tumbleweed -
between ## is the new stuff:
"The only supported method of repo use for Tumbleweed is to have only the main repos
(Oss, Non-oss, and Update) and the Tumbleweed repo active. ## If you use more
repositorys you have to know how repo-priorities work, but even then Tumblweed does NOT
support this ## "
It would also be good to move this information to "Special concerns" and to move the
whole "Special concerns"-section up. For example
"Special Concerns
Virtual Machines ...
Third Party Drivers ...
## Non-Standard Repos: Only use Oss, Non-oss, and Update combined with the
Tumbleweed-Standard repo. Everything else is not supported and might break the system ## "
>You do know the legal reasons behind why packman is
there, right?
Yes. Then I do not whish you personaly to support Packman with TW - I understand now
that this is not possible from your perspectivg. But...as the OS community discusses
right now if/how to strengthen Tumbleweed... one way would be, that Packman+TW would be
supported BY Packman. So I will ask the Packman-guys to do that... I hope this is
possible for them. Without Packman Tumbleweed is so ... "anti-multimedia" ;)
thanks anyway :D

I assume the full power of linux's text utilities can be
used on them - like grep, sort, awk, perl... vim...
Having logs recorded in a non-text binary format tends to
make MS logs out-a-sight, out-a-mind, where as I often go and poke
around in /var/log and look to see if I notice anything 'new'.
If I can't look at the whole stream as a text (messages, warnings, etc),
I don't get a field for what is right or wrong behavior and certainly
wouldn't be able to pick out an anomaly if I had to query each item separately --
that global view is a good way to look for 'warts'...
MS makes it much to painful to do hat -- 1 error / page, everything in
300 separate queries ... ug!

I tend to use ngsyslog for the filtering benefits. -- really has some powerful
filtering in the 2.x line -- had to label ng3x taboo, so it won't overwrite
a working config with a non working config...

Hi:
Will be cool if rpmlint could warn when upstream packages attempt to use
the -ansi gcc option because it inhibits usage of gcc builtin functions
while optimizing (list here -->
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Other-Builtins.html#Other-Builtins)
most recently it caught my attention that it also disables the new
"optimize-strlen" pass in gcc 4.7, in particular this:
"for hosted compilations where stpcpy is available in the runtime and
headers provide its prototype, e.g.
void foo (char *a, const char *b, const char *c, const char *d)
{
strcpy (a, b); strcat (a, c); strcat (a, d);
}
can be optimized into:
void foo (char *a, const char *b, const char *c, const char *d)
{
strcpy (stpcpy (stpcpy (a, b), c), d);
}
"
when -ansi is used and (defined(_GNU_SOURCE) || (_XOPEN_SOURCE >= 700 ||
_POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200809L)) is false, there is no stpcpy prototype and
hence no optimization.
Thoughts ?

Please continue this thread at opensuse-factory as it was already
suggested as part of this thread. Therefore the Reply-To got set.
The begin of this thread was here:
http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse/2012-01/msg02101.html
Why?
Cause it's more likely that you'll get the required attention.
Thanks,

Hi,
This is also related to the "Coolo needs help thread".
During osc12 we had various discussions related to the topic of getting
the distribution out the door and how we can get there within the
release schedule that we had agreed to a while back. Part of this
discussion are the two sessions I had the opportunity to lead, both are
available on youtube opensusetv, if you are interested in this topic
please go and watch these sessions, as well as Stephan's session, also
on youtube. Unfortunately we did not have video equipment in the BoF
session.
The basic proposal is, and this received general agreement at osc12,
that we will move toward changing the model as proposed in the session.
This implies the following:
- In the web UI one will no longer see inherited project maintainers on
the package page, only the "true" package maintainers. (Inherited
"maintainers" will be hidden in an expandable tree)
- We will collect information about all packages in all devel projects
that feed factory. We will generate a list of packages that have no
maintainer, and a list of packages that need help, i.e. a package that
has fewer than 5 maintainers. In addition we will list packages that
have more than 5 maintainers and try to encourage maintainers from those
packages (to get the number to 5) to take on packages that need help.
- We want to clean up the devel project maintainer list to a ratio of
10/500 packages with a max of 25.
~ In many cases package maintainers in a given project do not care
about all the other packages in the project, yet they are on the
project maintainer list.
~ Also many people have their Hermes notifications disabled as they
get too many messages about packages they do not care, hopefully
with the changes more people will re-enable their Hermes
notifications (more on this below)
- We would like to see a notification on the package page if the package
fails to build in factory
- Would like to see package build status information on the factory
status page about the status of the package in it's devel project.
- Having the monitor page and the status page presented in the current
form is confusing, we need to somehow merge the information.
- It would be really nice if there were some kind of policy engine that
could enforce the "no more than 5 per package" and the "no more than 25
project maintainers" policies.
~ now OBS is not just for openSUSE, thus this cannot be hard coded
into the OBS code, thus this is potentially a lot of work.
- We would like to have some kind of rating system on the devel projects
- We will produce guidelines for package and product maintainers
outlining what is expected.
~ These guidelines are not hard rules, but provide help to new
people stepping in to define the role they are comfortable
with. There appears to be a problem that the complete void of
guidelines in this area leads to paralysis and people just do not
know what to do if they want to help. We have documents how to
package, these guidelines will be a hopefully short list of
"what is expected".
These are the rough outlines of the "plan". Obviously there is work to
be done and the OBS team already has plenty to do. It is up to me to
document in more detail the requirements/use case before a potential
timeline can be developed. I will also start a wiki page attempting to
define the various roles in the devel process and then opening that up
for discussion once the basics are in place.
Now to a couple of counter points.
- Yes we will step on some people's toe, sorry. Meaning if you get
removed as project maintainer from a devel project and you really really
want to be a project maintainer you are probably not going to be happy.
Please do not take it personal and get yourself added back to the
project. Preferably you would find one of the project maintainers that
remained, by chance and chance alone, and get that person to drop of the
list. Chances are you will find someone willing to "make space for you"
~ Sorry, but this process has to be somewhat arbitrary due to the
large number on the various devel projects.
~ Please be not offended, there is no vicious intent, just the intent
to help the project grow and scale better.
- Yes, the "rules" are changing, and if you maintain a package that is
also in factory there will now be some expectations
~ In the end we all should have the same goal, create a quality distro
in the time frame we promise, thus this should really not be a big
deal
Before I close this rather long e-mail (sorry) I have a kind of survey
question. I would like to have the hermes settings of package
maintainers reset "automatically" as we move through the house keeping
project such that package maintainers get notification of build failures
of their packages. I realize many people have these turned off today,
but again, this is probably due to the number of notifications due to
the project maintainer mails that most people do not care about.
OK, before I write another couple of pages about this subject I'll stop
here.
Thanks for your attention, please no flaming, bitching and moaning.
Great ideas and help are welcome.
Later,
Robert

Yeah, I set it to force fallback mode. Still froze though.
