[opensuse-factory] Too many packages to process

by Vojtěch Zeisek

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] Default Java

by Bernd Ritter

Hi there, just wanted to let you guysome days ago I wondered what the default java version would be. It should be Java 11. So I've installed a clean leap beta installation. I've installed java-openjdk-10, java-openjdk-11, java-openjdk-1_8_0. Same with the equivalent devel packages. The default java version is Java 11 both with "java" and "javac" via update-alternatives. So everything's fine. I've updated the wiki page accordingly (https://en.opensuse.org/Features_15.1#Java). Does anyone know why there is no Apache Maven available in the default packages? There is this "maven-local", which I think is not the maven program itself.

[opensuse-factory] Package firewalld should not yet replace SuSEfirewall2

by Freek de Kruijf

Now that the date is near when SuSEfirewall2 will be removed I finally looked into what firewalld is offering. My analyses are that firewalld just offers only very basic features. It lacks however more advanced features like rate limiting and control over logging. My conclusion is that SuSEfirewall2 should not yet be replaced by firewalld. First firewalld should at least have the lacking features mentioned above. I don't see any reason why SuSEfirewall2 should currently be replaced. Maintenance on it is minimal, so it could still exits next to firewalld. -- fr.gr. member openSUSE Freek de Kruijf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] RFC: Stop using Group tag in spec files

by Igor Gnatenko

Hello, My name is Igor. I'm long-time contributor in Fedora and started recently to contribute to the openSUSE with focus on cross-distro collaboration. I'm also contributor to many upstream projects which includes RPM. You can see my oSC19 talk here: https://events.opensuse.org/conferences/oSC19/program/proposals/2489 There are still few things which are different between Fedora and openSUSE spec files for rust packages, more specifically those are license header, Group tag and changelog. While license header and changelog things are not easy to fix, the Group one is. In Fedora, we have removed all Group tags in F30: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Remove_Group_Tag Groups are hard to choose (I would rather prefer to see some kind of tags), there is no check from RPM itself (it is basically free-form text field) and usually you can't put application into one group because they belong to multiple groups. I spoke to a few people on the oSC and it seems that only YaST is using this information to generate UI. So it should be doable to change its representation which is not based on the Group tag. Considering above, is there some process like Fedora Changes (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Policy) in openSUSE where I can propose this? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] LTO in openSUSE:Factory

by Martin Liška

Hi. We as toolchain team are working on enablement of LTO in Factory: LTO stands for Link Time Optimization and it is a GCC optimization technique that improves speed and reduces size of binaries. According to our measurements, ELF binaries will be about 5% smaller and debug info packages by 15%. Now, there are various interesting packages that have been LTO in Factory right now: libreoffice, MozillaFirefox, python3, gcc9. Our goal is to extend the scope to as many packages as possible. We'll achieve that via a new RPM macro: _lto_cflags. We expect that about 5% of packages will have LTO disabled due to various reasons. A new META bug has been created for that and will link all these packages: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1133084 I'm also planning to collect all relevant information for package maintainers on the following WIKI page: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:LTO Note that Debian and Gentoo are also trying to adopt LTO in their corresponding ecosystems: https://wiki.debian.org/LTO https://github.com/InBetweenNames/gentooLTO Martin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] RFC: configuration files in /etc

by Thorsten Kukuk

Hi, for this, who don't want to read a lot of text, there is a video of my talk about this topic from openSUSE Conference: https://youtu.be/ony0ajC0PWA The slides can be found here: https://github.com/thkukuk/atomic-updates_and_etc/tree/master/Slides and the full, detailed abstract can be found here: https://github.com/thkukuk/atomic-updates_and_etc/blob/master/README.md What is this about? RPM has a really very simple configuration file handling: overwrite the config, move it away and write the new config or write the new config in a different file (*.rpmsave and *.rpmnew). If the rpm contains a configuration file marked as %config, and the packager fixes a typo in a comment, RPM will move the by the admin modified and adjusted configuration file away and put's the default configuration file there, which means, your service will not work until you merge the configuration files. This is already bad, but it's getting really worse if you think about atomic updates (transactional-updates on openSUSE): - admin modifies configuration files - admin starts an transactional update, the configuration file will be modified - admin makes changes to the configuration file - admin reboots to active the changes -> admin needs to find out which changes where done by whom and needs to merge them all to get the service working again While this shouldn't happen very often, more really seldom, if it happens, it's really bad. Especially, if you think about big clusters with many machines and not only a few workstations. So I started looking into different solutions. The first thing is: we are not alone with the problem, every distribution with atomic updates has it, but every distribution has their own solution. Which reminds me on the pre-FHS times, when you had to learn for every distribution again where the configuration files and other tools could be found. So we need something, which helps everybody and is good enough specified, that people will use this solution. The second thing is: people want to have the configuration files in one place, so that it is easy to find. And at least, no, there is not the perfect solution solving everything, for some I even have no idea, but for others we make big improvements compared to today. The goal is to provide a concept working for all Linux Distributors (like the FHS, preferred is to get this into the FHS). Short to midterm, it should solve the problems with atomic updates. Midterm to longterm, the result should be, that no package installs anything in /etc, it should only contain changes made by the system administrator or configuration files managed by the system administrator. The current proposals are: https://github.com/thkukuk/atomic-updates_and_etc/blob/master/README.md#pro… A short summary: Application configuration files: Do something similar to what systemd is already doing today (See https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.unit.html#Examples, "Overriding vendor settings"). Put the default, by a Linux distributor shipped configuration files somewhere below /usr, and /etc only contains the overwrite. This sounds like a lot of work, but in reality, many applications we have on openSUSE Tumbleweed alredy support different locations for configuration files and overwrite of them, like sysctl, dracut, PAM and many more. For this, this is only a packaging exercise and rpmlint checks. System databases: This are files in /etc like rpc, services and protocols. We can put them somewhere below /usr, and /etc/ only contains the changes. A glibc NSS module could merge them automatcially, different implementations do exist already today for this. /etc/passwd, /etc/group and /etc/shadow: This is the big, open problem. We looked at many possible solutions, but didn't found the real, generic one. So, what is the expected outcome of this mail? 1. We need to agree, if we want to solve the problem or not In my opinion, there is no real choice, if we don't do it coordinated as Linux distributor, this will happen in a chaotic way. 2. We need to agree on the goal, so for me, this would be: - short term: solve the problem for packages on openSUSE MicroOS - mid term: solve the problem for openSUSE Tumbleweed - long term: /etc/ only contains admin created files, a Linux Distribution does not install there anything 3. We need to agree on a path below /usr for the default configuration files 4. We need to agree on how we want to solve it. Your comments and feedback?

[opensuse-factory] [PLEASE SPEAK UP] Disabling legacy file systems by default?

by Martin Wilck

SUSE will blacklist a number of legacy and/or less frequently used file systems by default on SLES for security reasons. The proposed list can be seen here: https://github.com/openSUSE/suse-module-tools/pull/5/commits/8cb42fb6658f21… The question is now whether we should do the same for openSUSE. I figure that while the above list is probably not controversial for enterprise customers, openSUSE users may have objections to some items on the list. Please speak up if you do. In any case, note that even if we do this, you can re-enable the filesystems you need by simply commenting out lines in the blacklist file.
