by Erwin Van de Velde 07 Dec '12

07 Dec '12

Hi, Since the upgrade to KDE 4.9.4 I am unable to print from any KDE application, the application just hangs when I hit the print button, does anyone observe the same behavior?

[opensuse-factory] Current Factory Status

06 Dec '12

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, current Factory status is still poor as seen in openQA.o.o results of recent weeks. Inspite of popular belief, this has little to do with KVM's cirrus graphics, but rather with https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=790424 hitting all DVD/NET installs since 2012-10-26, https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=790724 hitting all LVM installs since 2012-11-06 and LiveCD installs slightly suffering from https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=793065 I'd consider the first two to be blockers which should be fixed before the next Milestone.

[opensuse-factory] build time verification of GPG signatures
by Stanislav Brabec 05 Dec '12

05 Dec '12

Hi. As discussed in past[1], Factory now has gpg-offline package, which is a wrapper on top of gnupg, which allows simple build time offline verification of GPG signatures. It makes possible to verify tarballs in the build time. The use of gpg-offline in spec files is really simple: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file?expand=1&file=gpg-offline.PACK… The package also contains a man page. The first time step is very security-sensitive: You define your package keyring - a list of trusted keys, that can be used by the upstream to sign the source of your package. Check carefully that you are not adding a malicious keys there. Be paranoid! The gpg_verify tool is able to detect hacked source on the upstream servers (and such bad thing really already happened[2]!), but it is not able to detect maliciously uploaded false signature on the key servers. If the upstream author is in your web of trust, you are on a safe side. But if he/she is not in your web of trust, you have to use alternative ways to trust the key: - If you can mail to the author and verify the key, it is very probably an authorized signature. - If the signing key is the same as the one used a year ago, it is probably an authorized signature. - If the signing key was used in mailing list many times to sign developer mails, or at least it was announced there, it is probably an authorized signature. - If you can find the public key or footprint on more servers on different hostings, it is probably an authorized signature. I just implemented signature verification for all packages, that already contained signature and/or trusted keyring. But I did not verify, that signature submitted by packagers is the signature of the real author. Feedback, feature requests and bug reports are welcome.

[opensuse-factory] SR 144031 stuck in factory-auto review waiting for its own packages
by Peter Trommler 05 Dec '12

05 Dec '12

SR 144031 is currently stuck in review for factory-auto with the following comment: > please make sure to wait before these depencencies are in openSUSE:Factory: ghc-array, ghc-base, ghc-haskell98, ghc-filepath, ghc-old- locale, ghc-old-time, ghc-directory, ghc-time, ghc-containers, ghc-process, ghc-deepseq, ghc-unix None of those packages mentioned are "BuildRequires" for ghc (yet) but they will be created as a result of that package's build (and only then the respective *-devel packages will require those packages). My previous SR was stuck for almost two weeks before I re-submitted an SR with the conditional dependecies removed. Can someone please unblock SR 144031 and move it on to the next review stage? Finishing this SR is the final step to have a working Haskell compiler (ghc) in Factory.

[opensuse-factory] long delay in factory AppArmor builds
by Christian Boltz 04 Dec '12

04 Dec '12

Hallo, I noticed a long delay (several minutes) in factory builds in the AppArmor package. Builds for Tumbleweed and released openSUSE versions do not have this delay. Can someone please check this and give me a hint what could be wrong? Full build log: https://build.opensuse.org/package/rawlog?arch=i586&package=apparmor&projec… relevant part: (note the long delay between 159s and 1168s) [ 159s] pam-devel-1.1.6-2.1 ######################################## [ 159s] pam-config-0.84-1.1 ######################################## [ 159s] *** write_config (account, /etc/pam.d/common-account-pc, ...)

I've read the Windows system internal's book written by a Windows "Fellow", that describes the process in considerably more detail in chapter 13. Maybe you should read the book 'Windows System Internals (5th ed). It tells you why -- boot sector loads a basic device aware booter like lilo, that can then boot images off of any of windows devices... None of them require an initrd. Any other questions?

[opensuse-factory] Tumbleweed: Gnome 3.6
by Joachim Bremer 03 Dec '12

03 Dec '12

Hi all, on my system I had a small problem on upgrading. System is 64-bit. The installed libgtk-3-0-32bit-3.6.2-3.4.x86_64 needs libatk-bridge-2_0-0-32bit-2.6.2-3.1.x86_64 which in turn needs libatspi.0-2.6.2-3.1 - which not exist and I think never existed - at least not in Gnome 3.4. I had to ignore that and everything else works fine so far.

[opensuse-factory] snapper snapshot comparison algorithm
by nafisa mandliwala 03 Dec '12

03 Dec '12

Hello, I wanted to know what algorithm snapper uses for snapshot comparison? From what I have interpreted from the code, it first compares metadata and then does a block by block compare using 'memcmp'. I also wanted to know how the directories are 'diff'ed and if there is a scope of improvement in the current implementation. Also, if anyone has taken it up yet.
