[opensuse-factory] New package: cups-airprint
by Olav Reinert 18 Mar '16

18 Mar '16

Hi, AirPrint is an Apple technology that allows iOS and OS X devices to print wirelessly, and without setting up printer drivers. It is based on a combination of the mDNS and IPP protocols, for printer discovery and for submitting print jobs over a network, respectively. On openSUSE, implementations of those protocols are provided by Avahi and CUPS, respectively. Turning an openSUSE system into an AirPrint server can be achieved by configuring the Avahi and CUPS services appropriately. The cups -airprint package is a collection of tools, configuration files, and instructions aiming to make the setup process as easy as possible. The result will most likely not be a perfect AirPrint implementation. There are caveats, and the exact functionality supported depends on the printer driver. Nevertheless, it will probably be more than adequate for the everyday printing needs of geekos with iPhones.

[opensuse-factory] openSUSE Tumbleweed – Review of the Week 2016/11
by Dominique Leuenberger / DimStar 18 Mar '16

18 Mar '16

Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers, Week 11 has been a busy one behind the curtain – not a single snapshot hit the mirrors due to the detected issues with the 32bit kernel (for reference, see [0]). Last night, OBS produced the first i586 ISO that I was able to boot again – And Snapshot 20160317 has been given the openQA attention it deserves. openQA gave the snapshot a ‘GO’! Of course, the week did not just go by waiting for the fix for 32bit systems, but a lot, and I mean, a lot was merged into this snapshot. The most interesting bits and pieces are: * Linux Kernel 4.5 – incl. a patch to also boot on i586 when built with binutils 2.26 * TeXLive 2015 * KDE Framework 5.20.0 * Mozilla Firefox 45.0 * CMake 3.5.0 * llvm 3.8.0 * Python 3.5.1 * postgresql 9.4.6. The update comes with a warning: IMPORTANT Users of version 9.4 will need to reindex any jsonb_path_ops indexes they have created, in order to fix a persistent issue with missing index entries. * VirtualBox 5.0.16 An impressive list, but it has been 10 days since the last release was published, so a larger update was expected. Things on the radar to come: * GNOME 3.20. The 2nd release candidate (3.19.92) has been submitted to openQA. It is not expected to show new errors. The upstream release of GNOME 3.20 is planned for next week (March 23 2016). It will be a bit longer of course to merge it all once the release is done, but you can expect it rather quick after the release * NetworkManager config change – captive portal detection (enabled via -branding-openSUSE) I wish you a fun weekend – enjoy the new snapshot!

[opensuse-factory] Fontconfig recommendations?
by Bjoern Voigt 16 Mar '16

16 Mar '16

My fonts do not look very good in Tumbleweed. For instance the letter "i" looks like letter "l" in Helvetica. My setup: * Tumbleweed 20160307 * KDE Plasma desktop * font related settings in my $HOME cleared (files removed) * a copy of all Windows 8.1 fonts in /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ * NVidia GTX 750 * Eizo EV2336W monitor The files in /etc/fonts are unmodified with some exceptions: Extra file /etc/fonts/conf.d/00kde.conf with the content: <?xml version="1.0"?><!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd"> <fontconfig> <dir>/usr/local/share/fonts</dir> </fontconfig> (I installed two extra fonts in /usr/local/share/fonts with the KDE font installer.) I also tried to activate two configurations from the Arch Linux documentation: In /etc/fonts/conf.d: ln -sv /usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/11-lcdfilter-default.conf . ln -sv /usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/10-sub-pixel-rgb.conf . Both setttings did not solved my font problems. Is there a good guide for openSUSE's fontconfig settings? I tried to follow the documentation for Arch Linux: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/font_configuration I'd like to use system-wide settings, but KDE tips are welcome too.

[opensuse-factory] Relevance of the Dropbear package
by Tim Hardeck 16 Mar '16

16 Mar '16

Hi, is anybody using or does anybody know someone using Dropbear - a relatively small SSH server/client? Dropbear was originally added to have an SSH client without libpam dependencies to allow it being part of initrd - mainly for network boot on s390. But among others the introduction of IUCV made the use case obsolete. Since openSUSE is not really targeted at really small systems I am wondering if the package still has a purpose for openSUSE?

[opensuse-factory] Wicked and wpa_supplicant
by Michal Hrusecky 16 Mar '16

16 Mar '16

Hi, I used to have ifcfg-wlan0 configuration that turned up my WiFi interface and called wpa_supplicant on that interface with configuration file I had prepared. It was long time ago. Now I lost it and I have no idea how to recreate it. Tried various options, but I always get wpa_supplicant running like this: /usr/sbin/wpa_supplicant -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -u -f /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log and not connecting to any WiFi defined in configuration file. Does anybody know what to write to ifcfg-wlan0 to run wpa_supplicant normally: /usr/sbin/wpa_supplicant -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -i wlan0 -f /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log I'm not even sure whether it is even still possible as it might be that this setup of mine was last working before Wicked came. Anybody using the same setup or have an idea how to get it working with wicked? Probably irrelevant, but I'm running Tumbleweed. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Abandoned packages in devel:languages:python3
by Todd Rme 15 Mar '16

15 Mar '16

Several packages in devel:languages:python3 are not building due to incompatibilities with the current version of their dependencies. These packages are apparently abandoned upstream, having no upstream activity in at least a year. With the release of upcoming switch to python 3.5, these will likely stop working entirely. I would like to remove them from the repo one week from today (next Monday). So if you need these packages, please either copy them to your home repo or patch them to get them working properly. The packages: python3-PyAVM - no release or upstream activity in one year python3-South - no release or upstream activity in more than a year, upstream website is gone python3-pyramid_handlers - no release or upstream activity in 3 years python3-pyramid_zcml - no release or upstream activity in one year -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] no 32bit .pc files on 64bit host
by Werner LEMBERG 14 Mar '16

14 Mar '16

[I'm actually using Leap, but I guess the situation isn't much different for Factory – please correct me if I'm wrong] I've just tried to compile HarfBuzz as a 32bit library on my 64bit box for testing purposes. By default, this library uses .pc files (for pkg-config) to find libraries. One of them is zlib. However, openSuSE's 32bit package of zlib doesn't come with a proper 32bit `zlib.pc' file (to be installed into `/usr/lib/pkgconfig'); and it seems that basically all other 32bit library packages don't provide .pc files either... Bug? Intention? Werner N��r��y隊Z)z{.��r�+�맲��r��z�^�ˬz��N�(�֜��^� ޭ隊Z)z{.��r�+��0��Ǩ�

[opensuse-factory] Too many unmaintained packages in Tumbleweed
by Dominique Leuenberger / DimStar 14 Mar '16

14 Mar '16

Hi all, as a provocative* counter to the thread that we have too few packages in Tumbleweed, I would like to raise (again) awareness that I would also appreciate if people would take care of the stuff that actually IS in Tumbleweed. Getting a package IN there is not as difficult as some seem to believe, but I would like to stress that this is no hit'n'run game. Currently, TW keeps on having a rough 50 packages in failing state (some change here and there, some stay forever). Emails are sent after 7 days of failure - so I will keep this mail here 'short' to stuff failing for > 10 days (having given people a chance to read the mails). Packages with pending submissions to Factory are also excluded. So, this leaves us with this list of packages that still is in need of handling: Error python3-jupyter_ipyparallel devel:languages:python3 Fails for 11 days: Unknown build failure Error python3-jupyter_ipython-doc devel:languages:python3 Fails for 11 days: Unknown build failure Current sources were declined: request 358732 Error pocl science Fails for 11 days: Unknown build failure Error python-jupyter_console devel:languages:python Fails for 15 days: Unknown build failure Error fcitx M17N Fails for 15 days: Unknown build failure Error mipv6d network Fails for 15 days: Unknown build failure Error ksaneplugin KDE:Applications Fails for 18 days: Unknown build failure Error python-jupyter_nbconvert devel:languages:python Fai ls for 19 days: Unknown build failure Error python3-jupyter_notebook devel:languages:python3 Fa ils for 19 days: Unknown build failure Error python-jupyter_nbformat devel:languages:python Fail s for 19 days: Unknown build failure Error python-jupyter_qtconsole devel:languages:python Fai ls for 19 days: Unknown build failure Error python-jupyter_core devel:languages:python Fails for 19 days: Unknown build failure Error golang-googlecode-log4go devel:languages:go Fails for 22 days: Unknown build failure Error shim devel:openSUSE:Factory Fails for 23 days: Unknown build failure Error python3-SQLAlchemy devel:languages:python3 Fails for 23 days: Unknown build failure Error tomahawk KDE:Extra Fails for 30 days: Unknown build failure Error leechcraft network Fails for 30 days: Unknown build failure Request <a href="/request/show/358049">358049</a> to network Error python-SQLAlchemy devel:languages:python Fails for 30 days: Unknown build failure Error qsapecng electronics Fails for 33 days: Unknown build failure Error ASL science Fails for 34 days: Unknown build failure Request <a href="/request/show/358788">358788</a> to science Error gtksourceview-sharp2 Mono:Factory Fails for 43 days: Unknown build failure Error python3-flit devel:languages:python3 Fails for 47 days: Unknown build failure Error python-urllib3 devel:languages:python Fails for 49 days: Unknown build failure Current sources were declined: request 352092 Error scantailor graphics Fails for 76 days: Unknown build failure Error pam_pkcs11 security:chipcard Fails for 116 days: Unknown build failure Request <a href="/request/show/358604">358604</a> to security:chipcard Error klatexformula Publishing Fails for 127 days: Unknown build failure Error kde3-celestia KDE:KDE3 Fails for 136 days: Unknown build failure Current sources were declined: request 342132 Error krb5-appl network Fails for 140 days: Unknown build failure Error perl-Test-CheckChanges devel:languages:perl Fails for 169 days: Unknown build failure Error python-sure devel:languages:python Fails for 184 days: Unknown build failure Different sources in devel project (since 5 months) Error terminology-theme-openSUSE-oliveleaf X11:Enlightenment:Fac tory Fails for 187 days: Unknown build failure Error enlightenment-theme-openSUSE-oliveleaf X11:Enlightenment:F actory Fails for 187 days: Unknown build failure Error enlightenment-theme-openSUSE-ice X11:Enlightenment:Factory Fails for 187 days: Unknown build failure Error enlightenment-theme-openSUSE-bluegreen X11:Enlightenment:F actory Fails for 187 days: Unknown build failure Error enlightenment-theme-openSUSE X11:Enlightenment:Factory Fails for 187 days: Unknown build failure Different changes in devel project (since about 2 months) Error kross-interpreters KDE:Distro:Factory Fails for 236 days: ruby.h:585:55: error: '__builtin_choose_expr' was not declared in this scope Error kdegraphics3 KDE:KDE3 Fails for 236 days: kmultipage.h:309: undefined reference to `DocumentPageCache::sizeOfPage(PageNumber const&) const' Different sources in devel project (since 8 months) Error racket devel:languages:misc Fails for 236 days: Unknown build failure (That's 38 packages) I'd appreciate to get fixes for those as well. Cheers, Dominique * the provocation is not against the idea of the contrib repo per se. If somebody wants to take this on and chase maintainers, be prepared to invest a lot of time. This message merely wants to point out that even in openSUSE:Factory we end up with broken stuff - and that's only build broken stuff... some stuff is not installable, some stuff not runnable. openQA is very limited in its scope -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org
