[opensuse-factory] IPv6 support Yast Firewall
by James Knott 23 May '12

23 May '12

With use of IPv6 increasing, would it be possible to get support for IPv6 added to Yast Firewall? Also, I use a 6in4 tunnel to obtain IPv6 and the 6in4 tunnel (tun-00) doesn't appear in Yast. As that is how many currently obtain IPv6, support for that is important. tnx jk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Status: Distribution
by Stephan Kulow 23 May '12

Hi, While factory has a lot of broken packages, it doesn't look too bad for the beta to be released, BUT the build service has major performance problems for a while now and it seems to become worse and worse every day ;( So I can't even foresee when we can have images to test - and as a reminder: this comes before the fixing, which comes before the releasing. So this is my top priority right now: finding the problem with the build service or at least work around it as good as we can. On unrelated news: Raymond is confident enough to made plymouth the default, so we'll have that for the Beta - and kernel 3.4 made it! :) 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] Midnight Commander needs maintainer?/maintenance!
by Felix Miata 22 May '12

22 May '12

https://bugzilla.novell.com/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&emailassigned… shows 14 mc bugs against supported releases and Factory assigned to nadvornik, one of two "maintainers" listed by osc. 4 are marked fixed, and none of those show any activity by nadvornik. dlovasko has no mc bugs against supported releases assigned, and is only associated to two mc bugs, though via bug comments it appears he is somehow related to two recent fixes. So it appears mc needs maintainer (and version) maintenance. The current Factory version is 4.8.1.3, while the latest is 4.8.3, which will miss version cutoff if it isn't updated soon, if that milestone hasn't already passed. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

[opensuse-factory] curses/ncurses crazyness
by Cristian Rodríguez 22 May '12

22 May '12

Hi: What do people think about providing just one ncurses/curses variant in 12.2 ? Currently there is ncurses5, ncurses6 each one having a "widechar" variant whose headers are provided by the same package at the same time... I have a few mutually-exclusive proposals to cleanup this: Proposal 1: - Provide only ncurses6 in widechar variant as libncurses.so, with headers in /usr/include/ncurses fix the fallout if any. This is my favorite option. Proposal 2: - Separate curses5, curses6 , their headers and its variants in separate packages, libncurses5-devel libncurses5w-devel libncurses6-devel libncurses6w-devel all providing an update-alternative script for ncurses-config and making the widely used ncurses-devel package name a provides of libncurses6w-devel any thoughts or suggestions appreciated. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] worries about Mono repositories
by Marguerite Su 22 May '12

22 May '12

Hi, list, I'm a little bit worried about our Mono:* repositories... it seems main packages in them haven't been updated since openSUSE 11.4. and I watched Mono official page...still 11.4 too. I have a SR opened for 4 weeks...(114334, pinta, a gimp-like mono-based graphics package) earlier this month I sent emails to their maintainers, and one of them told me to ask mono release manager. no reply for now unluckily but seems they added 12.1 for some repositories. and there're rumors on the internet saying when attachmate acquires SuSE, they didn't acquire our mono developers. anyway we have a half-dead mono in openSUSE for a while. and mono is sometimes important for openSUSE gnome.(eg: banshee...which depends a lot on Mono, and our mono versions are obsolete enough that to make it unstable...on KDE you can't even get it running; another eg: monodevelop) so 1. is there any plan we continue collaboration with mono official developers or we take these repositories back into our own hands...while that's not important at all...just curious to know 2. what more important is, we have to call enough volunteers to update them all for our coming 12.2 beta. 12.2 will be released on late 2012, but our mono version is in 2011...nearly 12 months ago. latest stable mono is released on Dec 19 2011. any idea or news about it?

[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] Linphone update for 12.2?
by Dieter Werner 19 May '12

19 May '12

Hi, with the Linphone 3.4.3 in openSUSE 12.1 my webcam is not working. It is working with kopete (using uvcvideo). Therefore I checked the Linphone page and I found there exists already version 3.5.2. Release information does not mention an improvement related to cameras (maybe this is contained in the bug fixes), but some other interesting features were added like SRTP media encryption SIP/TCP and SIP/TLS network protocols ZRTP media encryption ... (conferencing, codecs, bug fixes) Currently factory still contains Linphone 3.4.3. Is there a possibility to get Linphone 3.5.2 into openSUSE 12.2, or is there a reason not to have it?
