[opensuse-factory] custom openSUSE-NET-x86_64.iso with different install= URL

by Olaf Hering

The openSUSE-Net.iso images at http://download.opensuse.org/factory/iso/ do unfortunately point to a non-existant installation source, instead to http://download.opensuse.org/factory/repo/oss/ To make things easier for me I want to roll my own with just the REPO_URL changed. How can I link/branch this "thing", with just the REPO_URL changed? It seems that the "Branch package" link in the web UI in https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=_product%3AopenSUSE-cd-mini… does not work. Appearently its not an ordinary package.

[opensuse-factory] noshow for fans and voltages in 12.3

by Constant Brouerius van Nidek

In Gkrellm I monitor the teperatures and fan speeds on a regular base, due to the high daily temperatures. Up to 12.2 I was able to have the system and CPU temperature and all three temps from the harddisks. Two fan speeds were also shown. Due to an acpi driver problem I have to add "acpi_enforce_resources=lax" in the bootsequence. Worked like a charm. In 12.3 though the CPU, system temp and fans are not shown any more. And when I remove "acpi_enforce_resources=lax" from the boot sequence also my harddisk temperatures vanish. According to the sensors-detect my temp chip is a Winbond A83697HF/F/HG on the ISA bus at 0x290. What has changed since 12.2 that causes the noshow and is there a solution? Is my problem Suse specific or should I ask de Gkrellm people?

Re: [opensuse-factory] BUG -- programs requiring specific library versions -- not 'minimum versions'...

Vim doesn't need it. Vim only uses libperl to provide optional perl functionality to be used by the user at run time. Even in perl, if you do a: "use 5.14.0;" That only give you an assurance that you are running, at least, under 5.14.0 OR higher. It's not limited to 5.14.0. Even perl does not restrict programs to a fixed version. But Suse added exact version requirements to vim and and other programs making it impossible to upgrade piecemeal. It's one thing to say you must have *at least* this version, but requiring *exact* versions is Bad software practice. It is as bad or worse than hard-coding absolute pathnames. Many programs under the 12.X series now have exact dependencies on GLIB x.14, x.15, x.16... etc... (12.1/12.2/factory), which means binaries from one version are BOTH forwards and backwards incompatible. That's a violation of basic software design and support that is unthinkable. It would be like all software vendors 'failing' to load if MS updates any library. That is a worse case of DLL hell that what MS had. MS's DLL hell happened because they only allowed 1 version of a shared library **in memory** at the same time. If an old piece of software loaded an old version of some library, then a newer piece of software wouldn't load because it needed a newer version of the library that couldn't be loaded. They fixed this in Vista, about 8-9 years ago. In the suse version of DLL hell, they only allow 1 version of a library to be loaded onto a machine at all (as rpm will uninstall old versions). AND -- software doesn't have requirements for a "MINIMUM" version, but an exact version -- meaning that newer versions of the library can't be used to support old versions. Generally speaking libraries are **usually** backwards compatible and this type of requirement is unnecessary. When there is a large interface change, you end up with a major re-release of the library -- like libreadline5 + libreadline6 -- both of which can be used and required at the same time. This is what I meant earlier by suse creating damage much faster than I can even documented it, let alone fix. That's even assuming I wasn't argued to death about why standard software practices were no longer reasonable or desirable... which isn't the case with many developers who feel bad SW design should be justified rather than fixed. More than one person has said, we don't care what you want -- this what we are doing and this is what is going to be, deal with it. That type of attitude indicates they don't care about users or anyone other than themselves.

[opensuse-factory] Tumbleweed: unresolveable GLIBC

by Marcel "Ammler" Gmür

got the following issue on every package for repository Tumbleweed: unresolvable: nothing provides libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.15)(64bit) needed by libglib-2_0-0, nothing provides libpcre.so.1()(64bit) needed by libglib-2_0-0 https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor?project=home%3Aopenttdcoop&succe… It might need some rebuild on the repo, right?

[opensuse-factory] BUG -- gvim et al, tied to specific versions of script engines; breaks when script-langs are updated.

by Linda Walsh

Subject says it all -- install gvim, then update perl to a newer version -- watch gvim fail. It shouldn't. This is a growing problem in the 12.x timeframe. Products are becoming more fragile and more easily broken. A related issue is allowing multiple versions of packages to be loaded to support the increasing number of packages that hard-code in fixed numeric values in the build-code rather than using a symbol resolved at run-time. Example -- make gvim dependent on 'perl', then it runs no matter what the version. Note, this is a regression. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org
