[opensuse-factory] NetworkManager-1.0 soon to be ready for testing
by Shawn W Dunn 28 Jan '15

28 Jan '15

So some exciting news, for those of you that use NetworkManager. NetworkManager 1.0 is now in GNOME:Factory, and ready for everybody to test and break repeatedly, so we can get it ready to push to Tumbleweed. This will also bring 1.0 versions of the following packages: NetworkManager-gnome -openconnect -openswan -openvpn -pptp -vpn And I'm sure, shortly thereafter, updates from the KDE team, once it hits Tumbleweed. Some of the new … [View More]Features/Bugs/Changes include: + A new 'libnm' GObject-based client library to replace libnm-util/libnm-glib: - IP address, IP route, hardware address, and other properties are now represented as strings. - Based on GIO's GDBus bindings instead of dbus-glib. - Uses modern GObject APIs including GAsyncResult and GVariant. - See https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/NetworkManager/libnm. + Devices and VPN connections now have individual default routes. Priorities are handled through configurable route metrics. + nmcli now supports password requests and PolicyKit authorizations. + A faster, lighter-weight (though less capable) internal DHCP client has been added and may be selected with the "dhcp=internal" option. It supports fewer DHCP options and does not yet support DHCPv6. + A new 'configure-and-quit=yes' option has been added for environments with less dynamic network configuration. + When running on 3.17 and later kernels, NetworkManager handles IPv6LL address assignment to ensure that IPv6 connectivity is not enabled until intentionally configured by the user. + NetworkManager no longer causes the nl80211 kernel module to be loaded on systems with no Wi-Fi devices. + Bluetooth DUN support now works with Bluez 5.x. + VPN connections can now persist across link changes and suspend/resume if their VPN plugin supports this feature. + A new 'ibft' settings plugin has been added to support firmware-based iBFT/iSCSI configurations. This functionality has been moved to 'ibft' from the 'ifcfg-rh' plugin. + IPv6 router advertisement MTUs are now respected. + NetworkManager no longer requires polkit libraries at runtime when Polkit support is enabled, and Polkit can be disabled at build time too. + Automatically created connections are now deleted when their device goes away. + 'nmcli dev connect' now attemts to create a connection if none exists. + Manually configured static IPv6 configuration is kept even if SLAAC fails. + Manpages for the 'keyfile' and 'ifcfg-rh' plugins now describe their configuration syntax and available options. + WWAN connections now support IPv6 if the modem and provider support IPv6. + Software devices (bridge, bond, team, etc) can now be deleted from the D-Bus API or with nmcli. + The manpages, documentation, and API annotations have received many cleanups. + Externally created virtual interfaces are no longer managed by NetworkManager until they are set "up" or activated via nmcli. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org [View Less]

[opensuse-factory] digikam-doc needlessy updated?
by Gerald Pfeifer 28 Jan '15

28 Jan '15

Today I saw an update for digikam from 4.6.0-2.1 to 4.6.0-3.1 in factory. This came with the same for digikam-doc -- a 19.3 MiB download. Curious on what might have changed I ran "md5sum `rpm -ql digikam-doc`" before and after the update. The only difference was this: < 6c48dddeaa281f26f3067929718cbe7a /usr/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/digikam/index.cache.bz2 > e6e1b8b7b18c27bc841544372e6185fa /usr/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/digikam/index.cache.bz2 < 5cb9c3b41f6a0d8562aee3d5d6f212ac /usr/… [View More]

[opensuse-factory] "There is no link /var/X11R6/bin/X to the correct X Server binary."

This is from trying to run startx after a fresh zypper ref/dup from 13.2 to TW. Startkde also doesn't work. "Please configure the correct X Server with SaX/SaX2, which will create the missing link. I'm aborting now." SaX, SaX2, sax & sax2 produce command not found. ls of /usr/bin/X points to /var/lib/X11/X with red background ls of /usr/bin/Xorg also has red background I see /usr/bin/startx has grown from 5643 bytes in 13.2 to 8584 bytes in TW.

[opensuse-factory] New Tumbleweed snapshot 20150126 released!
by Ludwig Nussel 27 Jan '15

27 Jan '15

Changed packages: ==== anjuta ==== Version update (3.14.0 -> 3.14.1) Subpackages: anjuta-lang libanjuta-3-0 - Update to version 3.14.1: + Many debugging commands are broken (bgo#743270). + Updated translations. ==== giflib-devel ==== Version update (5.0.5 -> 5.1.1) - Cleanup a bit - Remove obsolete sle10 deprecations - Fix one tiny rpmlint warning - Update to version 5.1.1 + Numerous minor fixes in getarg.c. Affects only the utilities, not the core library. + Fix … [View More]SourceForge bug #59 DGifOpen can segfault if DGifGetScreenDesc fails. + SourceForge patch #20: In gifalloc, fix usage of realloc() in case of failure. + Fix SourceForge bug #61 Leak in gifsponge. + glibtoolize port fix for OS X. - Update to new upstream release 5.1.0 * Minor API change to assist library wrappers in dynamic languages, removal of the the gif2raw utility, and various minor fix patches for unusual edge cases. * API changes to functions: GifErrorString returns const char *; EGifGetGifVersion returns const char *; EGifCloseFile takes another int *errorcode; DGifCloseFile takes another int *errorcode; ==== java-1_8_0-openjdk ==== Subpackages: java-1_8_0-openjdk-headless - Modify patch: system-giflib5.patch * Fix build with giflib 5.1.x ==== perl-DBD-Pg ==== Version update (3.4.1 -> 3.5.0) - Update to version 3.5.0 from 3.4.1 Upstream changes: - 3.5.0 - Allow "placeholder escaping" by the use of a backslash directly before it (CPAN bug #101030) - Improve the workings of the ping() method (CPAN bug #100648) - Add get_info(9000) => 1 to indicate driver can escape placeholders. - In tests, force the client_encoding to UTF8, skip tests that involve characters not supported by the server_encoding - Fix memory leak when selecting from arrays - Make get_info much more efficient and slightly simpler - 3.4.2 - Fix bug where single-quoted type arguments to the table_info() method were causing a SQL error. (CPAN bug #99144) ==== privoxy ==== Version update (3.0.22 -> 3.0.23) - update to version 3.0.23 - Bug fixes: - Fixed a DoS issue in case of client requests with incorrect chunk-encoded body. When compiled with assertions enabled (the default) they could previously cause Privoxy to abort(). Reported by Matthew Daley. - Fixed multiple segmentation faults and memory leaks in the pcrs code. This fix also increases the chances that an invalid pcrs command is rejected as such. Previously some invalid commands would be loaded without error. Note that Privoxy's pcrs sources (action and filter files) are considered trustworthy input and should not be writable by untrusted third-parties. - Fixed an 'invalid read' bug which could at least theoretically cause Privoxy to crash. So far, no crashes have been observed. - Compiles with --disable-force again. Reported by Kay Raven. - Client requests with body that can't be delivered no longer cause pipelined requests behind them to be rejected as invalid. Reported by Basil Hussain. - General improvements: - If a pcrs command is rejected as invalid, Privoxy now logs the cause of the problem as text. Previously the pcrs error code was logged. - The tests are less likely to cause false positives. - Action file improvements: - '.sify.com/' is no longer blocked. Apparently it is not actually a pure tracking site (anymore?). Reported by Andrew on ijbswa-users@. - Unblock banners on .amnesty.de/ which aren't ads. - Documentation improvements: - The 'Would you like to donate?' section now also contains a "Paypal" address. - The list of supported operating systems has been updated. - The existence of the SF support and feature trackers has been deemphasized because they have been broken for months. Most of the time the mailing lists still work. - The claim that default.action updates are sometimes released on their own has been removed. It hasn't happened in years. - Explicitly mention that Tor's port may deviate from the default when using a bundle. Requested by Andrew on ijbswa-users@. ==== whois ==== Version update (5.2.3 -> 5.2.4) - whois 5.2.4: * Fixed referrals handling for the .cc, .tv a .jobs TLDs. * Updated the list of new gTLDs.

[opensuse-factory] [TW] xinit - a strange experience
by Werner Flamme 27 Jan '15

27 Jan '15

Hi everyone, today I had a strange experience with my TW installation. For more that a week now, I cannot login via graphical interface, I have to switch to console mode and use "startx" here. That went fine until this morning (yesterday I was at home and did not use this box). startx -> nothing. file startx -> "empty file" WTF??? I reinstalled xinit (from the TW repo, as always), and the script was back. But it complained that there was no /usr/X11R6/bin/X. OK, I symlinked /usr/… [View More]

[opensuse-factory] Tumbleweed - when will the name be changed?
by Basil Chupin 27 Jan '15

27 Jan '15

When will the grub2 menu show the correct name of Tumbleweed when booting into Tumbleweed instead of the "useless" name of, eg, "2015xxyy"? I think that it is about time that the menu showed "Tumbleweed" instead of the almost-daily releases of the TW ISOs (which in itself is kinda annoying because it not only takes up processing time to generate yet-another 4.3GB DVD).

[opensuse-factory] firewalld as alternative for SuSEfirewall2?
by Mathias Homann 27 Jan '15

27 Jan '15

Hi, Request for discussion: Should we offer firewalld as alternative/complement for SuSEfirewall2? I think we should... reasoning: mobile users (laptops) who use NetworkManager / Wicked for managing their ip connectivity "in userspace" would want to be able to have multiple wifi setups that end up being in different zones. I'm going to try to package the latest firewalld from fedora for openSUSE, and test it with 13.2. Progress report will follow in due time. cheers MH -- To … [View More]
