[opensuse-factory] Dynamic Linker on openSUSE: questions about oS specific patches
by Peter Trommler 08 May '14

08 May '14

Dear listmates, In maintaining the Haskell compiler for openSUSE I came across a discussion on dynamic linking for Haskell. In Haskell ticket 8935 https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8935 a dynamic linker issue is raised that I cannot reproduce on openSUSE 13.1. Since I know the C compiler and linker gurus read this list, I am posting here. So my question is: Do we apply a patch to the system linker that makes to following program return the correct address (three times the same) for `environ` in all three calls of dlsym()? It is not an openSUSE problem, which is good, but an issue on quite a few other distros. The ticket mentions Ubuntu and CentOS. Any kind of help is highly appreciated!

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, I attempted to download the 13.2 iso but when I clicked the download button, I was given a "Connection is Untrusted" warning by Firefox (http://paste.opensuse.org/view/raw/61657593).

[opensuse-factory] how to know when fortify source prototypes are shadowed ?
by Cristian Rodríguez 07 May '14

07 May '14

Suppose I have a large body of code, of which programmers are lazy and do something like this: (note that this is a silly example to make my point, the real thing is much more scary) cat lazy.c int printf(const char *format, ...); int main(void) { printf("Problem?"); return 0; } If you compile that with -Wall -Wextra -pedantic or -WWhatever no warning is emitted and the resulting code calls ..call printf .. instead of call __printf_chk .. as it would when <stdio.h> is included. I couldn't find any warning (or much better an error) that I could use to uncover it.. something like -Wshadow-fortify-stuff :-) -- Cristian "I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody." -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Fwd: Review
by Andres Silva 05 May '14

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Review Date: Sat, 03 May 2014 16:17:41 -0600 From: Andres Silva <anditosan1000(a)gmail.com> To: opensuse-artwork <opensuse-artwork(a)opensuse.org> CC: opensuse-factory(a)opensuse.org.org Hello all, I just wanted to give you a quick heads up in hopes to get some good ideas about this. I proposed long ago a set of ideas as far as artwork goes to integrate for the next version of openSUSE. One that I wanted to tell you about is changing the current font to open sans. This font family is very complete and also features a clean and sharp look for screens. Every time I use it, I feel that it can be changed to bold, thin, semibold and it keeps a strong presence and welcoming feeling. It also coincides with recent advances made by the design team at SUSE that chose this font also to be featured in artwork for our openSUSE booths and marketing materials. To see examples of this look here http://www.google.com/fonts/specimen/Open+Sans I have the means to push this change so I just wanted to check on some thoughts about it. Thank you -- Andy (anditosan) anditosan.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

The Dell Recovery "partition"[sic], was relocated to a *FILE* inside the windows directory in Win7. So I wouldn't assume that small partition is a recovery partition -- In my case it's the boot partition. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] virtualbox issue with pesign-repackage
by Michal Šebeň 03 May '14

03 May '14

Hi, I am just trying to figure out why is virtualbox build failing in Factory (same problem also in Virtualization project). In the (Factory) build log the last error is: "/usr/bin/chkstat modified files that are not properly handled!" it occurs in the post build stage when repackaging "pesign-repackage" is triggered, which is strange because in main build phase (in the same log) the post build check 08-check-permissions runs fine locally, "osc build" triggers only the main build phase so build succeed and using buildservice, branched project (in this case) finished in endless signing state so I am not sure how to dive deeper in to the issue factory log (~18M): osc remotebuildlog Virtualization virtualbox openSUSE_Factory x86_64 thanks for tips -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Request 231922 (myspell dictionaries)
by Cor Blom 02 May '14

02 May '14

Hi, In mentioned request for factory the install location of the myspell dictionaries is changed from /usr/share/myspell to /usr/share/hunspell Using LibreOffice:Factory this is breaking spellcheck on my system. According to man hunspell the original location is the right one. Is this correct? (It is not only about a working spellcheck, but has also consequences for a package I maintain).
