Adapt loop mounting of iso images (bsc#1038132, bsc#1033236) - Adjust zypp.conf for openSUSE Tumbleweed (bsc#1031756) - Change arch variable names conflicting with compiler macros (fixes #70) - Fix potential crash if repo has no baseurl (bnc#1043218) -

Add Fix-plain-map-and-political-map-showing-no-content.patch to fix the plain map and the political map being not displayed at all (kde#379297) ==== mc ==== Subpackages: mc-lang - sftp.patch: Backport upstream fixes for SFTP (boo#1004280, boo#1042797) ==== plasma5-integration ==== - Move the Recommends: %{name}-plugin-lang to the plasma5-integration-plugin sub package, otherwise the translations won't get installed as there is no main package (boo#1027925) - Actually apply the aforementioned patch (shouldn't the source validator have warned?) ==== plasma5-openSUSE ==== Subpackages: plasma5-defaults-openSUSE plasma5-theme-openSUSE plasma5-workspace-branding-openSUSE sddm-theme-openSUSE - Fix installation of the sddm theme files (boo#1047254) ==== postgresql ==== Version update (9.4 -> 9.6) Subpackages: postgresql-contrib postgresql-devel postgresql-docs postgresql-server - Bump version and defaultpackage to 9.6. - Move ~postgres/.bash_profile to postgresql-server to avoid a file conflict between the versioned server packages. - Bump version and defaultpackage to 9.4. - Bump version and defaultpackage to 9.3. - Change license string to PostgreSQL. - Make all dummy packages noarch. - Make PostgreSQL 9.2 the default. - Reduce the postgresql packages with unversioned names to dummy packages that require the respective versioned package names. ==== python-coverage ==== Version update (3.7.1 -> 4.3.4) - uninstall alternatives in %postun - update for singlespec - update to 4.3.4: - Using the --skip-covered option on an HTML report with 100% coverage would cause a ?No data to report? error, as reported in issue 549. This is now fixed; thanks, Lo�c Dachary. - If-statements can be optimized away during compilation, for example, if 0: or if __debug__:. Coverage.py had problems properly understanding these statements which existed in the source, but not in the compiled bytecode. This problem, reported in issue 522, is now fixed. - If you specified --source as a directory, then coverage.py would look for importable Python files in that directory, and could identify ones that had never been executed at all. But if you specified it as a package name, that detection wasn?t performed. Now it is, closing issue 426. Thanks to Lo�c Dachary for the fix. - If you started and stopped coverage measurement thousands of times in your process, you could crash Python with a ?Fatal Python error: deallocating None? error. This is now fixed. Thanks to Alex Groce for the bug report. - On PyPy, measuring coverage in subprocesses could produce a warning: ?Trace function changed, measurement is likely wrong: None?. This was spurious, and has been suppressed. - Previously, coverage.py couldn?t start on Jython, due to that implementation missing the multiprocessing module (issue 551). This problem has now been fixed. Also, issue 322 about not being able to invoke coverage conveniently, seems much better: jython -m coverage run myprog.py works properly. - Let?s say you ran the HTML report over and over again in the same output directory, with --skip-covered. And imagine due to your heroic test-writing efforts, a file just acheived the goal of 100% coverage. With coverage.py 4.3, the old HTML file with the less-than-100% coverage would be left behind. This file is now properly deleted. - update to Version 4.3.1 ? 2016-12-28: - Some environments couldn?t install 4.3, as described in issue 540. This is now fixed. - The check for conflicting --source and --include was too simple in a few different ways, breaking a few perfectly reasonable use cases, described in issue 541. The check has been reverted while we re-think the fix for issue 265. - update to Version 4.3 ? 2016-12-27: Special thanks to Lo�c Dachary, who took an extraordinary interest in coverage.py and contributed a number of improvements in this release. - The HTML report now supports a --skip-covered option like the other reporting commands. Thanks, Lo�c Dachary for the implementation, closing issue 433. - Subprocesses that are measured with automatic subprocess measurement used to read in any pre-existing data file. This meant data would be incorrectly carried forward from run to run. Now those files are not read, so each subprocess only writes its own data. Fixes issue 510. - Coverage.py wouldn?t execute sys.excepthook when an exception happened in your program. Now it does, thanks to Andrew Hoos. Closes issue 535. - The coverage combine command will now fail if there are no data files to combine. The combine changes in 4.2 meant that multiple combines could lose data, leaving you with an empty .coverage data file. Fixes issues issue 525, issue 412, issue 516, and probably issue 511. - The branch coverage issues described in issue 493, issue 496, and issue 502 are now fixed, thanks to Lo�c Dachary. - Options can now be read from a tox.ini file, if any. Like setup.cfg, sections are prefixed with ?coverage:?, so [run] options will be read from the [coverage:run] section of tox.ini. Implements part of issue 519. Thanks, Stephen Finucane. - Specifying both --source and --include no longer silently ignores the include setting, instead it fails with a message. Thanks, Nathan Land and Lo�c Dachary. Closes issue 265. - Coverage.py can now search .pex files for source, just as it can .zip and .egg. Thanks, Peter Ebden. - update to 4.2: - Since ``concurrency=multiprocessing`` uses subprocesses, options specified on the coverage.py command line will not be communicated down to them. Only options in the configuration file will apply to the subprocesses. Previously, the options didn't apply to the subprocesses, but there was no indication. Now it is an error to use ``--concurrency=multiprocessing`` and other run-affecting options on the command line. This prevents failures like those reported in `issue 495`_. - Filtering the HTML report is now faster, thanks to Ville Skytt�. - update to 4.0.3: - Fixed a mysterious problem that manifested in different ways: sometimes hanging the process (`issue 420`_), sometimes making database connections fail (`issue 445`_). - The XML report now has correct ``<source>`` elements when using a ``--source=`` option somewhere besides the current directory. This fixes `issue 439`_. Thanks, Arcady Ivanov. - Fixed an unusual edge case of detecting source encodings, described in `issue 443`_. - Help messages that mention the command to use now properly use the actual command name, which might be different than "coverage". Thanks to Ben Finney, this closes `issue 438`_. - add LICENSE.txt - Pre require coreutils. This package is needed for the rm call in the pre section. Subprocess failed. Error: RPM failed: /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.gONanE: line 3: rm: command not found - specfile: * updated license * updated update-alternatives * README.txt -> README.rst - update to version 4.0: (long list, see http://coverage.readthedocs.org/en/latest/changes.html) - fix rhel deps by depending on /usr/sbin/update-alternatives ==== ucode-intel ==== Version update (20160714 -> 20170511) - Update to version 20170511 - Update to version 20161104. ==== yast2-bootloader ==== Version update (3.2.22 -> 3.2.23) - AuotYaST configuration: Set StorageDevices flag disks_valid to true. So libstorage can scan valid disks and "/" partition can be found. (bnc#1043132) - 3.2.23 ==== yast2-ntp-client ==== Version update (3.2.9 -> 3.2.12) - Resrict records are written at the end but the default file and most profiles use them at the beginning, which mangles the file completely (bsc#983486). To fix it we have just changed the order of writing. - 3.2.12 - AutoYaST: Fix crash when trying to sanitize not string values, for example initial_sync. - AutoYaST: Sanitize comments by only removing blank spaces at the beginning and adding line break. This avoids augeas parse errors (bsc#1045777). - 3.2.11 - AutoYaST: Fix crash in CFA when creating a command record with some key value option is given (bsc#1045968) - 3.2.10 - AutoYaST: Comments from autoyast profile should not be sanitized to avoid entries without space between value and comment (e.g trustedkey 1# coment). This is caused by a bug in augeas adding new entries. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] acpid requires systemd?
by Felix Miata 25 Apr '24

25 Apr '24

Can this be true? If so, why? Zypper won't let me upgrade acpid without breakage unless systemd is installed too. I have systemd locked out, as I'd rather test things I can understand in Factory, not major overhaul stuff. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

[opensuse-factory] Too many packages to process
by Vojtěch Zeisek 12 Mar '21

12 Mar '21

I'm not sure, if this is bug or feature... After few days, update applet (TW, KDE) says there are 6843 new updates (TeX, R, ... ;-). When I click to "Install updates" error "Too many packages to process (6843/5200)" appears. Zypper handles it well. Is it worth of bug report? To b.o.o?

[opensuse-factory] rpmlint-checks: I: polkit-untracked-privilege will become an error
by Matthias Gerstner 13 Apr '18

13 Apr '18

Hello, the SUSE security team recently decided to turn the rpmlint check "polkit-untracked-privilege" into an error. Currently this is only an informational message. If you get messages like these in your package: gvfs-backends.x86_64: I: polkit-untracked-privilege org.gtk.vfs.file-operations (no:no:auth_admin_keep) then they will become an error with 10.000 extra badness in the future, as is the case with other polkit related errors. This affects all packages in openSUSE:Factory. The rationale behind that is that even though these polkit rules seem harmless (only locally logged in users with admin privileges can acquire the polkit privilege), they can expose security issues. This is because the correct enforcement of the polkit policy is depending on the individual package's polkit adaption. Therefore such packages must go through a review process with the security team. You can trigger this process by opening a bug against security-team(a)suse.de and adding an AUDIT prefix to the bug summary. For more about this please refer to this wiki page: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Package_security_guidelines We don't expect many packages to be affected by this. If you have any questions please reach out to us. Thank you Matthias -- Matthias Gerstner <matthias.gerstner(a)suse.de> Dipl.-Wirtsch.-Inf.

Hi, > There will not be an automated migration path from an old SuSEfirewall2 > configuration to a firewalld configuration. There is a package > "susefirewall2-to-firewalld" which contains a utility for converting > SuSEfirewall2 configurations to firewalld. It's only a supporting tool > that tries to do the right thing. But it requires manual interaction and > review of the resulting firewall rules.

[opensuse-factory] amd ryzen low load hard freeze kernel
by Simon Becherer 26 Mar '18

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, since nearly 6 month now i have trouble with my unstable ryzen systems. randmom crashes after a couple of hours (<8), (nearly) no load, most times only hard reset is possible to start system new. most times nothing special in system-log (as i know, maybe somebody who know more could see suspected things.) after searching the net: because i am not really familiar with kernel-boot parameter settings, and i have read its necessary to build own kernel (on lists of other distributions) i like to ask: how to fix (work around) or if maybe included in the tumbleweed-kernel the "low load freeze of ryzen" here: ryzen (1700) 8 core processor systems with tumbleweed. i read several links found by google: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=196683 https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/1690085/comments/69 https://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?315887-Random-Crashing they suggest to include rcu_nocbs=0-15 is /etc/defaults/grub file correct? GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="video=1920x1200 splash=silent quiet showopts" change to: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="video=1920x1200 splash=silent quiet showopts rcu_nocbs=0-15 " ?? and run: grub2-mkconfig? is this correct will this work? or is there a better/other solution for tumbleweed? (at the moment here not the newest version of tumbleweed): how to check the tumbleweed version? uname -a Linux becherer1 4.14.2-1-default #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Nov 24 08:20:07 UTC 2017 (b0610fc) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux ============ by the way, as suggested by this mailing-list i have replaced the amd ryzen prozessors because of the segfault problem (i found this problem for my systemsy after the hint on this list). tumbleweed is now running fine with HIGH load (kill-ryzen.sh) script (more than 48 hours) and for others who read inside internet "amd ryzen production date "after week 25 (sometimes is written week30) is fine" THIS is NOT TRUE. at least this type: ryzen 1700 UA 1733PGS has this bug, (2017 week 33) (i have had after a first replacement 4 of this processors all have had this bug) see also here: https://forum.level1techs.com/t/ryzen-pre-week-25-fabrication-rma-issue/118… ============================== would be happy to get an info how to fix the low load problem to get stable tumbleweed-ryzen-system's. thanks in advance, simoN -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) iQIbBAEBAgAGBQJacJjHAAoJEOuDxDCJWQG+9Y8P+K6tnQsCVoKSI4rrrSWqHGJf aZEcAqmgP1R+DvR6/79iDEx3P5Gq0CWSdGWTY8y385PA5AeurT+C/0n2yE84ojjM SzrzK3b5I+qMPCaHJNrrHpPa6WZW9DCSf1sE88XXDDKBscIVvCsbP2g//IYNMT1F 6ncZRzOmGXGPaeuTvAeQ6tfNKUL1rBA7QKjHwILpUE5hkFY8WW++fhiej9sklXxM QJzpfV0KWJEUtu8aEkV/TShL6N/kjJhwDDPiLO5vV/LkeGIDSLJwqOBkMn0+TYBk CJb72SCQEAvM+dL8Zjnz9Z5IwOKxIZvq0rKxay9UnwtH/KUDMnsznHo9yxcjbp6S czSnr5Aov8BKxnOI6nKFr94oZSk/x0djZZLtsp00LgHnKLkZZTzjQTurQkWy5e6W 4ZUNtSwgpXINqPz87eIgcEvvRNV16HhdstmBf12OSPls9Z1RDDrQR6plEPWU823Q pZUEyEBDNSqArNLNUpW7VPBh0u3BdqWdyQCbuyb2StkVKXi9xtaVZJrzEKYQMELt JLXL5Efz6SlYsSYWsrPWGrwBXWnJ4TSUHmnJTWJQ9W8krap4E9c9X0hBG4uwUL6r 0IJXwNBodJCwS7mAZ+Ri13i7fv5RrIkODklTbyx402GFjFDgIeLF8cKu+5CEYasL RMdkHKjfhQbSTTMGt/c= =aB7T -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

Re: [opensuse-factory] New Tumbleweed snapshot 20171231 released!
by Andrei Dziahel 23 Mar '18

Hi Stefan, Dominique & all, The recent kernel v4.14.9 release breaks NVIDIA driver. There's a patch available on https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1028016/linux/patch-for-compiling-…, do you mind applying it? Going further, would be the openQA test that tries to install NVIDIA proprietary driver be ever accepted to general test suite? Or is there an OBS project with "working-with-nvidia" kernel packages? Sure, these suggestions are off top of the head, probably there is a better way to prevent "nvidia driver doesn't compile for 3 snapshots in a row, older kernels were just purged by purge-kernels so X doesn't run at all" case. Thank you in advance. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Packages depending on xorg-x11-devel
by Tomas Chvatal 22 Mar '18

22 Mar '18

Hello all, we still happen to have may packages depending on xorg-x11-devel which is metapackage pulling in whole x11 stack to the dependency chain. This means your package waits for the full X stack to be available before it even contemplates building. There are currently 107 packages doing this (see attached file) as such it is pretty annoying to open bugreports against everything. As such would it be possible if interested souls fix their packages to require only the stuff they need, preferably in the pkgconfig format, ie: BuildRequires: pkgconfig(libxcb) I will also add rpmlint error to fail all packages that are adding this dependency (as we are keeping the package for weird binary 3rd party apps, but do not want it in OBS). Thanks Tom

[opensuse-factory] Announcing Tumbleweed snapshot review site
by Jimmy Berry 15 Mar '18

15 Mar '18

Following up on my prior announcement [1] of Tumbleweed Snapshots, introducing a snapshot review site [2]. By utilizing a variety of sources of feedback pertaining to snapshots a stability score is estimated. The goal is to err on the side of caution and to allow users to avoid troublesome releases. Obviously, there are many enthusiasts who enjoy encountering issues and working to resolve them, but others are looking for a relatively stable experience. Releases with a low score will continue to impact future release scores with a gradual trail-off. Given that issues generally are not fixed immediately in the next release this assumes the next few releases may still be affected. If the issue persists and is severe it will likely be mentioned again in the mailing list and the score again reduced. Major system components that are either release candidates or low minor releases are also considered to be risky. For example, recent Mesa release candidates caused white/black screens for many users which is not-trivial to recover from for less-technical users. Such issues come around from time to time since openQA will not catch everything. Release stability is considered to be pending for the first week after release to allow time for reports to surface. This of course depends on enthusiasts who update often, encounter, and report problems. The scoring is likely to be tweaked over time to reflect observations. It may also make sense to add a manual override feature to aid scoring when something critical is encountered. Integrating the scoring data into the tumbleweed-cli would allow users to pick a minimum stability level or score and only update to those releases. Such a mechanism can be vital for systems run by family members, servers, or the wave of gamers looking for the latest OSS graphics stack. For more details see the code behind the site [3]. Currently, you can see the very low scores for the releases laden with shader cache issues and those therafter. This is the first iteration of the site so nothing too fancy and the score is fairly basic. The site also provides a machine readable (YAML) version of the data [4]. As a side-node, Tumbleweed Snapshots are limited to 50 snapshots due to a hosting restriction [5], but that should generally be over two months worth. Hopefully others find this useful, enjoy!
