Re: [opensuse-factory] repository priorities with Tumbleweed
by Thomas Langkamp 16 Jul '15

> No, please don't confuse people, if you add more repos than just > Tumbleweed you really had better know what you are doing or bad things > can, and will, happen :) 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 -- 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 Package - libhal1-flash (re-enabling Flash-Player DRM content on Linux)
by Christopher Horler 13 Sep '14

13 Sep '14

Good afternoon! I've written and packaged a compatibility library for flash to enable playback of DRM content (this removes the dependency on the HAL package). I'd like to know what steps I can take to have the package considered for inclusion in openSUSE 12.3 and 13.1. Can I submit the package to devel:openSUSE:Factory, or is there another action I should be taking? Details of the bug and links to upstream are here (please briefly review): https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=768562#c19 OBS location: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=hal-flash&project=home%3Ach… I will maintain the package until such time that HTML5 Video content is a viable alternative or the Flash plugin is completely withdrawn. RPMs, debs... are all available on the build service. Three noteworthy points: - package naming (libhal1-flash) doesn't 100% align with the Shared Library Policy (I've suffixed -flash to make clear this is not a fully functional HAL layer and also to avoid naming conflicts as some distros seem to have a shared library package already named libhal1). - The packages depends on dbus and udisks. It seems to work find when udisks is launched on demand (as for openSUSE 12.3) - The flash-player package could have some kind of RPM dependency on this package to assist the user when looking in YaST (Install / Remove Software) / Package Manager.

[opensuse-factory] libav and multimedia idea
by Tomáš Chvátal 14 May '14

14 May '14

Hello guys, I have created proof of concept libav library with disabled patented codecs in my home project [1]. This means that this library si up par with what we have in chromium and it should be legal to distribute. Apart from the library the repo contains vlc chromium and xbmc (built localy fails on obs, meh) which seems to run fine, just not to play almost anything ^_^. The possibility here is to include all the media players and stuff around it into openSUSE release, where one has to flip the switch in libav (see the spec file) and can build full-fledged-european-edition which can play our sweet movies. Let me know what you think about this plan and what would you use as base devel project for this. Cheers Tom [1] https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=home%3Ascarabeus_iv

[opensuse-factory] Btrfs under heavy write makes system sluggish-er than ext
by Claudio Freire 06 Feb '14

06 Feb '14

So, the subject says it all. I've been testing a huge database on 13.1 RC1, well actually factory, with a btrfs partition (not the system partition, just a dedicated partition), and under heavy write it chokes the system much more than ext4 does. It also seems to have lower thoughput on what should be mostly parallel sequential access (ie: multiple sequential threads), but I'll have to perform more accurate benchmarks to be sure. It may be an fsync issue. It's not a critical issue, of course, but I'm in a position to assist with tests, benchmarks and diagnostics... so... what do I need to do to provide useful info here? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

Hello. There is a regression in YaST2 *Qt* "install/remove software" module. It doesn't show solver diagram. First, no dependencies on libqdialogsolver. Second, installed libqdialogsolver doesn't help. Reported ages ago. And confirmed. All the info is provided. https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=785431 WBR Kyrill

[opensuse-factory] New packages submission to factory - rubygem-rspec, rubygem-packaging_rake_tasks and rubygem-yast-rake
by Josef Reidinger 09 Dec '13

09 Dec '13

Hi, I'd like to introduce a few new packages that I would like to have in factory ( not 13.1 ). All is related to changes in YaST development and conversion to ruby. rubygem-rspec[1]: Very famous testing frame-work for ruby. It is quite stable now and it is widely used in various projects for testing. Inclusion allows YaST to runs its new tests written in rspec during rpm build to help with early bugs detection ( Yast use CI, but check in during rpm helps with problem detection if dependency change and obs trigger rebuild ). I am willing to maintain it in factory and fix related bugs. rubygem-packaging_rake_tasks[2]: The gem is set of tasks for ruby build tool rake contains helpers for checking code quality, easy submit to Build Service or run local build. Project is around 2 years old and I maintain it myself. It is used in few projects to make submitting ruby projects to build service easier. It reaches version 1.0.0 where API of tasks is stable. I am author and I am willing to maintain it. rubygem-yast-rake[3]: The gem is rake configuration for yast projects. It is very young project and started few weeks ago, but it is needed for new yast CI. It uses packaging rake tasks. It provides to them configuration for yast projects ( like default devel project, default target project, etc. ) and add tasks specific for yast development. It is not much stable now, but yast is only project which depend on it and now it is not needed to build, so there is no risk, it just make yast developer life easier. I am author and I am willing to maintain it. If you have any question, complain or you are interested in such packages, do not hesitate to contact me.
