Re: [opensuse-factory] repository priorities with Tumbleweed

by Thomas Langkamp

> 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

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maintain the package until such time that HTML5 Video content is a viable alternative or the Flash plugin is completely withdrawn.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

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

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

[opensuse-factory] Your thoughts on dropping pm-utils

by Vojtěch Dziewięcki

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I maintain pm-utils, and I want to drop them soon, because systemd can handle (sort of) suspend and hibernation and also becouse their upstream is dead and I'm not able to (and don't want to) fix all the bugs all by myself. There is some information and an initial discussion on the topic here: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=790157 The current state is that pm-utils are sort of "plugged in" to systemd and are called from systemd to perform suspend and hibernate, if they are installed. Doesn't work too well. So I'm interested in other people's opinions on how this should be done and in particular what hooks you would like to see rewritten as systemd units, since I can usually do that. IMO the most important hook is 99Zgrub that prevents to boot another OS if we have hibernated, I've already rewritten that one, if someone wants to look at it or test it (just put it in /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep, hibernate without pm-utils and see if the grub menu appears when you turn the computer on - it shouldn't) , here's the link: http://bugzillafiles.novell.org/attachment.cgi?id=569356 I just modified it at the end, so it works as a systemd unit, but all the functions are the same as in 99ZGrub from pm-utils. I also think it would be nice to have a "transitional period", when pm-utils won't be used as default, but if someone would be unhappy with using systemd for suspending, pm-utils could be installed. So please share your thoughts on this. I also realize there are people who would like to keep pm-utils, but unfortunately I'm not able to fix those bugs any more, so if someone wants to disagree with dropping pm-utils, that person would have to become the maintainer and fix all the bugs (or find someone else to do it), because I can't and don't want to, thanks for understanding.
