[opensuse-factory] acpid requires systemd?
by Felix Miata 25 Apr '24

25 Apr '24

Can this be true? If so, why? Zypper won't let me upgrade acpid without breakage unless systemd is installed too. I have systemd locked out, as I'd rather test things I can understand in Factory, not major overhaul stuff. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

[opensuse-factory] KDE menus and gitorious
by Cristian Morales Vega 06 Nov '12

06 Nov '12

I created a merge request for desktop-data three weeks ago. It's just a minor patch that doesn't really fix anything but a warning from kbuildsycoca4. I'm not sure about how Gitorious works, maintainers are supposed to notice the "1" in the merge requests section or they receive an email notifying it? And since I'm on it. Since I updated my 11.3 system to KDE to 4.5 the "inline" part of the menu is not honored... Expected behavior?

[opensuse-factory] OpenTTD: An open source clone of Chris Sawyer's Transport Tycoon Deluxe
by Ammler 27 Aug '12

27 Aug '12

Dear openSUSE Factory Team OpenTTD is now for some years completely independent from the original TTD with its own graphics, sound and music. Therefore I would like to submit the package to openSUSE Factory. The brief description from http://www.openttd.org/en/about reads: OpenTTD is an open source simulation game based upon the popular Microprose game "Transport Tycoon Deluxe", written by Chris Sawyer. It attempts to mimic the original game as closely as possible while extending it with new features. Together with the package openttd, there are two data packages and one building tool: - openttd with subpackages openttd-dedicated (no SDL dependency) and openttd-data (noarch) - openttd-opengfx (required graphics) - openttd-openmsx (optional midi music) - nml (building tool for opengfx) (all 4 packages use license GPL-2.0) There is a third data package openttd-opensfx, but this does not fulfill the license requirements and so can't go to Factory (Creative Commons Sampling Plus 1.0, which means basically no commercial use). This is no big deal, like music sound is just optional and you can easily be downloaded ingame via the content service. Players get notified if they start openttd the first time. Some upstream developers of these dependent packages are also member of the OpenTTD dev team. This ensures that dependencies always work together. Also upstream has a very professional release workflow, which makes it easily maintainable for distro packager. There is a yearly major release on April 1st (no fool) and around 4 to 5 minor security/bugfix releases (http://security.openttd.org). Also there are security patches for older major release branches to support LTS distros, which do not update main releases during same distro. Usually it is very recommend to use the same versions as upstream to keep compatible with Network Multiplayer Games. But as openSUSE has a very short lifetime, this should be no issue. Development project is games. openttd is part of included there for ages. In order to ensure openttd and its support packages build on Factory, I created a temporary project: home:openttdcoop:Factory There you can find the 4 packages I submit to Factory. I heavily reworked the packages to make it "Factory capable" and didn't yet submit those changes to games. (review welcome) Currently, I don't submit testing releases (beta or RC) to games and keep those in home:openttdcoop. If openttd will be accepted in Factory, this might change. My next steps are now waiting for some comments here (around a week). If there won't be any arguments against submitting, I will submit openttd, openttd-opengfx, openttd-openmsx and nml from games to Factory. Please don't hesitate to answer, all kind of Feedback welcome. :-) Greets Marcel "Ammler" Gmür -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] razor-qt and QtDesktop
by Petr Vanek 22 May '12

22 May '12

hi all, we, the Razor-qt team, were contacted by various people that it would be great if we can push razor-qt into official openSUSE repository. And finally, Jos Poorvliet suggested real steps to do something. opensuse-project thread: http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-project/2012-03/msg00009.html It's fine, I already maintain suse rpm packages of razor-qt in OBS. But how can I handle a "add to factory" request, please? With some people we have X11:QtDesktop OBS repository. It contains (IMHO) set of important and relatively acceptable quality software (based on Qt) which is slowly expanding from our home:repositories. So maybe it will be cool to add some useful utilities into factory as well... Is it possible to use X11:QtDesktop as a devel repo for factory? And then to use just "submit package" to factory? thanks, petr vanek P.S.: URLs http://razor-qt.org https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=X11%3AQtDesktop https://build.opensuse.org/project/packages?project=home%3ATI_Eugene%3AQtDe… etc.-- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] nothing provides kernel-desktop-devel ( virtualbox in Tumbleweed repo )
by Michal Šebeň 04 Apr '12

04 Apr '12

Hi all, I am trying to build virtualbox against Tumbleweed repo (https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=virtualbox&project=Virtuali…) However builds, started to fail (for i586 repo) on missing dependencies which are needed by kernel-syms : "nothing provides kernel-desktop-devel = 3.3.0-16 needed by kernel-syms, nothing provides kernel-pae-devel = 3.3.0-16 needed by kernel-syms, nothing provides kernel-xen-devel = 3.3.0-16 needed by kernel-syms" all these kernel*-devel missing dependencies are build in Tumbleweed repo as i686 and not as i586 see: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/Tumbleweed/standard/i68… also e.g. in kernel-desktop.spec in Tumbleweed repo I see "BuildArch: i686" %ifarch %ix86 # Only i386/default supports i586, mark other flavors' packages as i686 %if ! %build_default BuildArch: i686 # KMPs are always built as i586, because rpm does not allow to build # subpackages for different architectures. Therefore, we change the # /usr/src/linux-obj/<arch> symlink to i586. %define kmp_target_cpu i586 %endif %endif .... but I don't see these lines in Factory or in 12.1 for the same package could be this the root of the issue ? (sorry if I missed something) btw the kernel-default-devel is built as i585 and in this case the dependencies are fine thanks Michal -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Should implement systemwide automounting
by Ilya Chernykh 04 Apr '12

04 Apr '12

Since hal was deprecated each desktop tries to handle automounting itself. Where hal automatically mounted any removable devices, now each desktop does it in a separate and unique way and some desktops do not do at all. As Greg advises doing automounting through udev rules a bad idea. Without udev rules only a separate resident daemon can do automounting. udisks-glue was suggested in this context but it requites an extensive config file (an example can be seen here: http://www.calculate-linux.ru/blogs/show/214) The config file is not shipped with udisks-glue and no free third-party one is available. The config still calls udisks command-line utility that is dependent on udisks version (incompatible with udisks2). So what a solution is there foe USB and CD drives automounting? Should it remain a desktop-specific issue? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] to tmp-on-tmpfs or not tmp-on-tmpfs
by Jos Poortvliet 04 Apr '12

04 Apr '12

I'd like to make a summary of the discussion (and add my thoughts, I've been running with my /tmp in tmpfs on several systems for years). To get something out of the way: if you run your DESKTOP system more than a week or two, expect /tmp to grow BIG. 2 GB is nothing in my experience. Thumbnailers sometimes leave data behind and so do things like flash, web browsers, inkscape, transcoding apps, CD Burners, some compiles ... This might be due to apps misbehaving but we're not Fedora, we handle the world as it is - not as it should be. Limiting the size like Debian does (max 50% of ram for all tmpfs'es) is a posibility, but then it gets full. And then? Random crashes, apps refusing to start, horrible slow performance due to memory running full. Can we add swap? That is slow. Not just that, by the time the OOM killer finally decides to kill something in your trashing system, it has been frozen for an hour if you're lucky. Besides, if it fills up swap you can't hibernate anymore. So downside of tmp on tmpfs: we introduce the notion of "have you tried turning it on and off again?" that MS is just about to do away with (or so they claim). Upside of this feature (from Fedora page): a few saved hard disk cycles and theoretical power savings, most likely quickly outdone by the increased swap usage. Oh, and we get closer to Solaris, which has been doing this forever. Yay. The verdict is simple: we can't follow upstream in this or other distro's in this. It doesn't work for us. Debian wants to build an OS for systemadmins. They have to tweak the system for their usecase anyway. And this is fine for servers, I bet. Fedora wants people to test the latest and greatest Linux has to offer. Their users are not supposed to run a desktop/laptop system for a month without upgrading to new unstable things and rebooting. But openSUSE wants to build an OS for people who need to get work done, not fiddle with system internals if they don't have to. Graphics designers, netbook owners, VM-users, DVD-burning users, flash-users, pdf-viewing people, web-browsing-users - they all can't work with this... I think we should pick a sensible default: put stuff which doesn't have to be in memory, on the disk. Keep the system performant for common usecases. Those who want their /tmp on tmpfs can use fstab. If, on one sunny day, the world has been turned around and all apps clean up after themselves or abuse /var/tmp for the data which wasn't supposed to be kept over boot (or, in an extremely green/pink world, use the proper locations like mentioned in Lennarts' blog on this subject), we can re- consider. And maybe we find other solutions to the problems mentioned - like cleaning up /tmp once it is getting full or stuff like that. But for now - let's keep /tmp on disk for at least one more release... /Jos * note how I did NOT abuse Lennart Poettering in any way.

[opensuse-factory] Udisks2
by Ilya Chernykh 03 Apr '12

03 Apr '12

There is a very much negative review of udisks2 http://igurublog.wordpress.com/2012/03/11/udisks2-another-loss-for-linux/ which claims that udisks2 is a Gnome-specific tool and will render many applications incompatible until rewritten. If this is true I would very much oppose including udisks2 in openSUSE without a thorough preparation. What do you think about this? Note: it costed a much effort to adapt KDE3 to udisks instead of hal but for now it heavily depends on udisks1 functionality. I suspect porting to udisks2 will again need a rewrite.

[opensuse-factory] Call for testing: New factory glibc
by Andreas Jaeger 02 Apr '12

02 Apr '12

I have a new glibc that contains fixes for two problems that have biten a few of you: * crashes in chromium or ktorrent if nscd is not running (or unscd is used) (bnc#741021) * Fix crash in KDE while starting glibc (bnc#753251). For the second bug I have confirmation that it's fixed on x86 but it might be that x86-64 contains another bug. Since the fix for the KDE crash involved removing another patch (and adding a couple of backports) and that patch fixed a rather large showstopper for openSUSE 11.4 (the missing symbols in KDE and subversion - bnc#657627), I'm doing a call for testing: If you're hit by either of the bugs, please test the new glibc from: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/a_jaeger:/my-factory-packag… Also, testing by others is welcome to be sure that the glibc does not introduce new bugs like the 11.4 showstopper. Please report any results back to me - or better use the two bugzilla mentioned above. thanks, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger aj(a){suse.com,opensuse.org} Twitter/Identica: jaegerandi SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GF: Jeff Hawn,Jennifer Guild,Felix Imendörffer,HRB16746 (AG Nürnberg) GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Warning / ANNOUNCE : upcoming changes in upstream systemd regarding /media, /tmp and /var/run | /var/lock
by Frederic Crozat 02 Apr '12

02 Apr '12

Hi all, this is a announcement regarding changes which have just landed in upstream systemd (not yet released nor pushed to Factory) regarding /media and /tmp: - /media will no longer mounted as tmpfs. This is because udisks2 will no longer use /media for mounting removables devices but /run/media/<user> - /var/run and /var/lock are no longer bind-mounted to /run | /run/lock. We should replace those directories with symlink to /run | /run/lock (probably at initrd time, this is what is done on Fedora) - /tmp is mounted as tmpfs, to make the default setups as stateless as possible. As stated on https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/tmp-on-tmpfs , we might need to fix some applications to use /var/tmp instead of /tmp when they need persistent storage. Another big issue is educating users. -- Frederic Crozat <fcrozat(a)suse.com> SUSE -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] How to confirm the licenses?
by Ilya Chernykh 31 Mar '12

31 Mar '12

Recently a bug report has been filled by the legal team regarding two sound files in KDE3' kdeartwork package: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=754072 My further investigation showed that the same files included not only in KDE3 but also in KDE4, where all the sub packages of kdeartwork were tagged with the following "license": No license agreement found in package ; GPLv2+, LGPLv2+, LGPLv3, BSD3 aggregation Thus I wonder why the bugreport was filled only against KDE3, and not against KDE4 where not only these files, but all subpackages of kdeartwork are affected. Anyway I e-mailed to the files author and he said that nobody asked him for a license when he contributed this to KDE svn, but he can release the files under CC-BY-SA.

[opensuse-factory] new package - ext4magic

All, ext4magic has recently been accepted into factory. https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=ext4magic&project=openSUSE%… It is a data recovery tool for ext4 filesystems. The license is GPL-2.0+ It is meant to be used against unmounted filesystems. Per the author: === For me, the program and its functions completed tested and stable up to 16TByte filesystem size. 64Bit file systems are not implemented. Not tested at the moment: - the new library releases form last 2 Weeks libmagic and libext2fs - file systems written with new Kernel (only testet written with 2.6 Kernel) - BigEndian CPUs not testet very extensively === I think opensuse is the first distro to have this tool in it. This is part of my effort to bring DFIR (digital forensic / incident response) apps to factory. This is likely one of the few that will have broad appeal to users.

[opensuse-factory] openSUSE Tumbleweed status for the week of March 26, 2012
by Greg KH 29 Mar '12

29 Mar '12

It's been about a year since I did a status report of what's going on in the openSUSE:Tumbleweed repo, let me know if you find this actually useful or not so that I can determine if I should keep it up. - As everyone knows, Tumbleweed is running on top of openSUSE:12.1, the transition to 12.1 was rocky for some people who thought that Tumbleweed was somehow a "full" distro, and not just an add-on on top of a stable openSUSE release. To make things easier for future updates of the base openSUSE release, please point to the "current" repo, not the explicitly numbers repo. For more details how to do this, see the Tumbleweed wiki page[1]. - kernel 3.3.0 is in Tumbleweed, and seems to be working well so far. - KDE 4.8 is now in Tumbleweed, be careful if you previously had added the KDE repo manually to your system, you should now remove it as I have no idea how well it will interact with this. - Because of the KDE 4.8 update, LibreOffice was dropped from Tumbleweed. This is due to build issues with the package, not any runtime issue that I can determine. LibreOffice fails to build on Factory at the moment as well, and a bug is open about this, hopefully it gets resolved soon. - XFCE has been updated in Tumbleweed to the latest version - vim finally showed up, after a brief breakage that I caused, sorry about that, all should be good now. - To preempt any questions about a GNOME update in Tumbleweed, I am looking into it, but it will not happen until it stabilizes in Factory first. As always, if anyone knows of any packages they wish to see added to Tumbleweed, please let me know. thanks, greg k-h [1] http://en.opensuse.org/Tumbleweed -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Fglrx and 11.4, can't find a resolution
by Roger Luedecke 26 Mar '12

26 Mar '12

I wanted to use the fglrx driver with openSUSE 11.4 on my new (to me) laptop. I am good at following instructions, but I get an error saying that the catalyst thingy or the ATI installer (from the site) can't find a compatible adapter... despite all available information indicating that my device is supported. I have sought help elsewhere, and am at a loss. Besides that I would like to have the better performance for a couple of things, I need to get to the bottom of this issue. The laptop I purchased (used) has AMD and ATI, which are unfamiliar and was the motive for getting the old laptop... so I could learn these chips and be able to better assess clients or users in the community and be of assistance. 1:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS690M [Radeon X1200 Series] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] GCC 4.7 Build Status
by Dominique Leuenberger a.k.a DimStar 26 Mar '12

26 Mar '12

Hi everybody, As you all know, coolo suggested to have a look at GCC 4.7 as the default compiler for openSUSE 12.2 (which surprisingly I have already seen as a 'fact to be' on some news pages... always nice to see how things are interpreted). For this to be successful, of course, we need to ensure that our distribution builds fine with GCC 4.7. A bunch of us joined forced and had a look at how much is currently creaking and took some efforts in fixing a bunch of those. Some small stats for fixes being sent out of my branch (home:dimstar:gcc47) which we all together used as source. Number of SRs in this state 12 new 7 review (For most here I wonder if the projects are aware of this configuration) 76 accepted 0 declined 11 revoked 5 superseded I would say quite impressive. Of course, most of the changes were rather trivial (missing include a very common one). Yet, all those packages needed to be looked at and fixed. Currently, there are 37 packages failing in home:dimstar:gcc47, which still need some work. Not all of them are forcibly related to gcc 4.7 failures (due to the logic of 'what' I branched). Some seem to be rather nasty ones (libzypp for example) and others are failing as a consequence of an error in another package (PackageKit for example fails due to libzypp's headers) Thus, together with the status overview, I would like to put out a call for help as well! Don't be shy, just chime in and fix one or two more of those packages.

[opensuse-factory] Cleanup in security:apparmor and security:apparmor:factory
by Christian Boltz 25 Mar '12

25 Mar '12

Hello, security:apparmor and security:apparmor:factory contain lots of old packages. I'd like to do some cleanup there if nobody objects. (I don't want to break anything, but OTOH I see lots of *very* old packages in those repos that probably nobody needs nowadays.) Note that I started maintaining the apparmor only half a year ago, therefore I might not know everything that still needs one of the packages. @Jeff: Please reply even if you agree with the cleanup - you as the former maintainer of the apparmor package probably know better if one of the packages is still needed somewhere. Let me first give you a short overview what is in the repos right now. Note that build is disabled for most packages - I added a note to all packages with build active. * Packages in security:apparmor: (repos: SLE_10 and factory) apparmor-admin_en [2] apparmorapplet-gnome - 0.9 [1] apparmor-dbus - 1.1 [1] (SLE_10 build enabled) libapparmor1 - 2.2 (SLE_10 build enabled) apparmor-profile-editor (only a broken link to factory) apparmor - 2.5.1 (the package in openSUSE:11.4:Update is newer) (SLE 11 SP2 also uses this version AFAIK) apparmor_2_6 - 2.6.1 * Packages in security:apparmor:factory (repos: 11.4, 12.1, factory, tumbleweed) apparmor-admin_en [2] (build active, but has a broken link) apache2-mod_apparmor - 2.0.2 tomcat_apparmor - 2.0.2 apparmor-dbus 2.3 [3] apparmor-parser - 2.3.1 [3] apparmor-profiles - 2.3 [3] apparmor-utils - 2.3 [3] libapparmor1 - 2.3 [3] pam_apparmor - 2.3 [3] apparmorapplet-gnome - 0.9 apparmor-profile-editor - 0.9.1 apparmor - 2.7.2 - that's the latest available packaged version (and building is of course enabled) If nobody objects within a week, I will - delete all pre-2.5 packages without any active repo - delete apparmor-admin_en - rename security:apparmor apparmor (2.5.1) to apparmor-2_5 and include the changes from 11.4:Update - move the active development to security:apparmor instead of security:apparmor:factory (and send a changedevelrequest for factory) - add 11.4, 12.1 and tumbleweed repos in security:apparmor - drop security:apparmor:factory (it will be empty after applying the changes above) In other words: after the cleanup, there will only be security:apparmor with the following packages: - apparmor-dbus 1.1 and libapparmor1 2.2 because they have the SLE_10 build enabled - apparmor_2.5 (with build disabled and the changes from 11.4:Update included) - apparmor_2.6 (with build disabled) - and of course the apparmor package (currently 2.7.2) with the latest version If you still need one of the packages I'm planning to delete, please speak up now - or remain silent forever ;-) Regards, Christian Boltz [1] I'm not sure to which apparmor versions those packages belong, however I'm quite sure they belong to version 2.4 or older (the apparmor-* packages were merged to a single apparmor package in 2.5) [2] outdated, now part of the Security Guide, and Karl Eichwalder wrote on opensuse-doc that I "probably can delete it" [3] the 2.3 / 2.3.1 packages were included in openSUSE 11.1, 11.2 and 11.3. Those releases are out of maintenance (with the exception of evergreen) and the packages in 11:3:Update are newer. Therefore I don't think it makes sense to keep them in security:apparmor. (If evergreen needs a fix for the apparmor packages, I'll of course help.) -- [18:16] <psankar> suseROCKs, sorry. didnt follow the conversation [...] [18:16] <suseROCKs> psankar, content is irrelevnt.

[opensuse-factory] KDE 4.8 is now landing in openSUSE:Tumbleweed
by Greg KH 24 Mar '12

24 Mar '12

After 2+ weeks of messing with KDE 4.8 to get it to build and work properly in openSUSE:Tumbleweed:Testing, all seems good, so it's starting to show up, slowly, in openSUSE:Tumbleweed this weekend. I'm announcing this here as I know a lot of people mix the KDE:4.8 repo with Tumbleweed on their systems, and that might cause problems if the KDE repo is allowed to remain as packages get duplicated. So, if you have KDE:48 in your repo list, I strongly suggest you remove it in the next few days, as I can not support mixing the two at all, sorry. Note, if anyone has any problems with the KDE packages in Tumbleweed, please let me know. Odds are I messed something up, not the KDE developers. thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] gcc47, Go language, gold linker
by Graham Anderson 22 Mar '12

22 Mar '12

Sascha, list, With Go language changes pretty much finished and a Go 1.0 stable release iminent I'd like to progress more with how we support this language. We already have a very good Go compiler in Factory but I would also like to have the gccgo compiler available for 12.2 so that we can offer a great Go hacking environment. Go currently has two reference implementations of it's spec, the first is the more commonly used {5,6,8}g compiler which is developed with the main Go tree, it's a derivative of Ken Thompson's plan 9 C compiler. The second reference implementation is the gccgo frontend introduced with gcc46 by Ian Taylor (who engineered the gold linker). The benefits of having both compilers are as follows: 5g, 6g, 8g compilers are *very* fast but gccgo compiler generates faster code also The language is new, having two reference compilers is great for sanity checks on Go code projects. Some developers may be more comfortable with a gcc frontend because they use the gcc collection anyway. Building the gccgo frontend is no problem, however to implement the same parity of concurrency features as the other compiler, gccgo needs to be built with the gold linker. Go concurrency is based on lightweight threads called goroutines, the goroutines are multiplexed on top of OS threads with each goroutine having their own small initial stack. This is managed by the Go runtime but the compiler and linker must support it. The version of the gold linker in factory (binutils 2.22) supports segmented stacks however gcc47 is currently built with traditional ld linker. Since now is the time where we are potentially adopting gcc47 it's also a good time to ask about what I would like to see from it. I can easily build gcc47 on my local OBS with my preference for the gold linker, but it's clear from the .spec.in comments of the gcc package that the compiler testing framework is an internal affair. I would therefore request that an analysis of building gcc with the gold linker was performed on the internal test framework for gcc. If it's impractical to ask for a change of linker at the same time as a change of gcc version, then by all means say so (note that I'm only asking that gcc be built with gold linker). In which case I can try and maintain a gccgo compiler inside the go language project. thoughts, advice and criticism very welcome.

[opensuse-factory] 12.2M2 HTTP installation - succeeded! (but KDE3 systemsettings fails)
by Felix Miata 20 Mar '12

20 Mar '12

32 bit, single core, i915G, 2G RAM. I only downloaded linux and initrd and started net install with Grub. I selected minimal server, added packages like kernel-server, apache2 & console tools, and set taboo on various things I want prevented from being installed ever, like grub2, apparmor, kontact, kdepim4, korganizer, hplip, kopete, gtk?-immodule*, bootsplash, splashy, blue*, systemd-sysvinit & others. Installation was virtually uneventful. My first attempt to select Grub left an empty menu.lst proposal, so I aborted and restarted bootloader, checked the other (new vs. adapt) box and got one, only to see https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=663749 remains. :-( I zypper'd IN KDE3 manually ad hoc. It opens looking normal, other than a really short list of classic menu selections (no Graphics, no Multimedia, no Utilities, even though such things have been installed), but when I try to select settings in the menu, all that seems to be there is a "Settings" header. When I try to run systemsettings from Konsole, I get this from the KDE crash handler: System configuration startup check disabled.

(we moved it back: move-udevd-and-udevadm-back-to-sbin.patch) - long deprecated keys: SYSFS=, ID=, BUS= have been removed. - 'udevadm trigger --type=failed, and the RUN{fail_event_on_error} attribute was removed. - udev control socket is now created in /run/udev/control. I would like ask you guys, if possible, to test the new version and let me know if there are any issues or problems with the new package. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] GCC 4.7: Status Overview
by Dominique Leuenberger a.k.a DimStar 19 Mar '12

19 Mar '12

Hi Factory list, A lot has happened in the last days on the GCC 4.7 fixup. Thanks to the tireless efforts of several contributos (yes! I was not left alone! Thank you all for helping) we already have a large bunch of packages fixed to build with GCC 4.7 Most (but not all!) of this went through my home repo, which just helped to coordinate the efforts and to ensure that not any package is fixed twice (well, that was theory...). On the other hand, this allows us to have some statistics as well: I branched a total of 251 packages (all packages failing build in openSUSE:Factory:Staging:Gcc47). Some packages (sorry, no count here) did not need any action, as they were updated in the devel project and as such the branching of them to my home repo showed that no further work was needed (boost, libwebkit and others) A total of 66 SRs were done from home:dimstar:gcc47 to the various devel projects, of which so far 31 have been accepted. Some were 'superseded' (4), and 25 are pending to be accepted or declined in their devel projects. All in all it feels like not too many things are breaking in difficult ways with Gcc 4.7, but still, we're not there yet. I for example did not yet fix Firefox and xulrunner :P The yast side is a bit trickier: I added a patch to yast2-core but there is something terrible wrong, as this causes the test suite to fail. and this even though the patch looks simple enough. Most of the other yast modules fail as a consequence to -core (note: version 2.22.4 from last week built fine with my patch, but 2.22.5 not anymore). So: don't be shy! Grab one of the still failing packages in home:dimstar:gcc47, try to fix it up and submit it (either to home:dimstar:gcc47 or directly to its devel project). If you identify that the failure is not due to GCC 4.7 (there is a bunch of > 150 packages failing in openSUSE:Factory too after all), then you don't have to stop there of course and can still go ahead and fix the package :P (admittedly, I did not do that and concentrated on pure gcc caused failures these days). So? Anybody? Best regards, Dominique / DimStar -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Asus Sabertooth 990FX motherboard - garbage

One warning on the Asus Sabertooth 990 FX motherboard, it seems the BIOS only supports Windows.

I did quite a moan about in in the Customer Support Survey the sent me. Whether that will do any good is anyone's guess. They probably can hire only one dimensional developers these days. The reply from their support was to run Windows on it and report any problem. I told them I don't run Windows ... no further response other than I got a second Customer Support Survey request today.

[opensuse-factory] Milestone #2
by Basil Chupin 17 Mar '12

17 Mar '12

A piece of advice - but your mileage may vary. This morning, as usual, I went to do "zypper refresh/up" on my Milestone #1 installation. This showed that there were (for me) 1190 upgrades to the tune of 890MB. Ah! I thought, Milestone #2 is what this is about. I went ahead with the upgrade. This totally stuffed my MS#1 installation and it is now unusable - it defaults to the (?init 3) root login, and I am unable to compile the nVidia driver. Doing "zypper dup" did not help. My MS #1 is a stock standard one which uses the official repos (except for Mozilla and packman). I suggest that "you" wait until (?) Monday when MS #2 is officially made available.

Hi, I would like to know if someone had an interest in switching 12.2 to gcc 4.7 as default. Because it's quite some work and we'd need to start *NOW* - but it requires some people to actually work on it and take control. E.g. in mass building factory with it and fixing packages *before* we switch. Volunteers?

[opensuse-factory] Many file fail to be found aftr recent update
by Ilya Chernykh 14 Mar '12

14 Mar '12

Hi! After recent update to Factory many files fail to be found. Namely it cannot find for example qmake. This is because QTDIR variable is not set to Qt3 location and not included in the PATH. Is this how it was desiged? If I still can fix packages that cannot find qt3 and qmake, there other packages which cannot find other files which I do not know how to fix. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Ridiculous bug in zypper
by Ilya Chernykh 12 Mar '12

12 Mar '12

I wonder how such behavior could make its way into release: https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=476123 It makes impression that openSUSE is an unprofessional product with bugs in anywhere, even when conduncting simplies operations with zypper. The bug was introduced with transition from 11.4 to 12.1. I have one openSUSE user to whom I help to use and maintain the system but this bug is the reason why I still di not upgrade their system to 12.1 Once they bsee such theings they will immediately think openSUSE is extremy buggy and not production-ready. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] New packages libconfig and libdbus-c++ for ffado svn 2040
by Dave Plater 12 Mar '12

12 Mar '12

Two new packages are destined for factory to enable ffado svn to build which fixes bnc#747391 and bnc#736115. Libconfig is waiting at the factory doors and has already been approved by licensing and the ffado version built against it has been tested by the reporters of both bugs, The full featured ffado which includes the dbus server and is built with both libconfig and libdbus-c++ is in multimedia:libs and has been tested on 12.1 by another user, is available from multimedia:libs. These libs along with jack 1.9.8 should be linked to Tumbleweed as well. libdbus-c++ is licensed under LGPL (v2.1 or later).

[opensuse-factory] Grub2 as default bootloader for installation
by Michael Chang 08 Mar '12

08 Mar '12

Hi all, In factory, yast2-bootloader and perl-Bootloader will be updated with grub2 support and will set as default for installation. However you can go back to your good old grub1 in the loader type selection menu if it doesn't work for you. This will not affect your existing system if you performed update to newest factory, the current loader will remain grub1. But grub2 will be availale in yast2 bootloader and you could switch to use it if you like. It's welcome to report issues to bugzilla and hopefully that issues can get resolved early before 12.2 release. Although we tried to test as much as possible, we can't guarentee the quality without distributing them outside and get more people's feedback and involvement. :) You could refer to the wiki page for current status and information. http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:YaST2_And_Perl_Bootloader_Grub2_Modules_Imp… Thanks.

The key here is communication and not ignorance, which you showed here: https://build.opensuse.org/stage/package/rdiff?linkrev=base&package=libconf… where you simply chopped a previous submission (by yours truly): https://build.opensuse.org/stage/package/rdiff?linkrev=base&package=libconf… The key concept here would have been called 'merging' and isn't really specific to OBS. But lets go on a bit, after 'working' on that package, you reopened a request to Factory (https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/106980) that was reasonably declined (see our packaging policies). It's rather funny that I wanted to do you a favor with just the above submission and fix your issues ;-) Long story short, I would really appreciate if you could stop pretending to be the one true source of wisdom and try to collaborate with others (like me).

[opensuse-factory] eth0 and dbus problems after upgrade to 12.1
by Dave Plater 08 Mar '12

08 Mar '12

Already sent to opensuse list with no reply yet. I updated via 12.1 x86_64 dvd and because I maintain multimedia, I included a few build service repos in thye upgrade. I used zypper dup from 11.3 to 11.4 without problems but this time there are problems which I assume stem from /var/run being a tempfs. I've searched threads on this list and factory list and googling only brought up similar Ubuntu problems but no real help. First problem was having to manually "ifup eth0" to get my network going, I've fixed that with adding "ifup eth0" to "/etc/init.d/boot.local" but the other problem has me stumped. As kde is starting it halts on a message box stating a similar message to this syslog one, clicking ok continues to desktop : pam_systemd(xdm-np:session): Failed to connect to system bus: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory Thinking that this was caused by the tempfs I also created the dbus directory in boot.local but it doesn't fix anything. I'm surprised that no one has reported a bug and it seems I'm the only one to have this problem, it's maybe leftover from my 11.4 kernel getting mangled when I recompiled with certain extra cdc_phonenet options and then when I updated my non openSUSE VirtualBox-4.1 to 4.1.8 my network died. I fixed this with the 11.4 tumbleweed kernel.

[opensuse-factory] Plymouth still not accepted in Factory
by Raymond Wooninck 06 Mar '12

06 Mar '12

Hi, since already two weeks I have been trying to get Plymouth accepted into Factory. The most feared legal review was done within a few hours, but it seems now that nobody is willing to validate the package further so that it can be accepted. I have been updating/correcting the package based on the indications that I have received unofficially, but now since 3 days the plymouth package is still awaiting review. I have spend quite some time in getting it where it is now and I would like to know what the intention is of those in control of Factory. If it is not wanted in Factory, then please indicate this and I will revoke my SR and keep it as a user-supported package in my own home repository. If something is still missing, then I would also like to get an official feedback what this is, so that I can correct it. I know that there are still some rough edges that needs further testing, but this cannot be done without having it in Factory. Also people willing to do the artwork for an openSUSE branding are awaiting the acceptance in Factory so that they can start their work.

[opensuse-factory] New kernel causing blanking?
by Thomas Taylor 04 Mar '12

04 Mar '12

Since the new kernel (3.2) in OS 12.2, I've been experiencing display blanking after about 10 minutes of inactivity. I've tried various methods of fixing this found in the forums and message list but they haven't worked. These included creating a new /etc/X11/Xorg.conf and adding scripts to the autostart folder in ~/.kde4. When I boot into OS 12.1 or 11.4 this behavior doesn't exist. Another possibly related problem, when I try to select a screen-saver in KDEs "configure Desktop", it causes a crash. That is the only item that crashes (at least for me) in "Configure Desktop" and I do extensive modification. Is there a way to tell the kernel not to blank? Kernel version: 3.2.0-2-default (also occurs with desktop & failsafe) Thanks for any ideas on the subject.
