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] Can we assume that /bin/sh is bash?
by Martin Wilck 21 Mar '22

21 Mar '22

Hi Jan, all, I'd like to carry our OBS dicussion to a wider audience (https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/672510) The question is whether we can assume that "/bin/sh" links to bash, in particular whether rpm scriptlets without explicit -p interpreter can be assumed to interpreted by bash. I'm aware that, in principle, /bin/sh is supposed to be the Bourne shell on Unix systems. But as a matter of fact, on current openSUSE, it is not. Unless it's tampered with, /bin/sh is a symlink to /bin/bash. bash is not started in full POSIX mode if invoked as /bin/sh, and even if it's in POSIX mode, it supports some extensions over the POSIX shell spec (e.g. the [[ ]] construct), which makes it behave differently than another shell not supporting [[ ]] would (*). Problably there are more differences, I can't claim to know them all. Here are some arguments why I think it'd be reasonable to assume that /bin/sh is bash on openSUSE: 1. patterns-base-minimal_base depends on bash, and the /bin/sh symlink is a non-configurable part of the "bash" package. 2. we could handle /bin/sh via /etc/alternatives, but we don't. 3. our Wiki suggests testing failing scriplets using "bash -xv" (https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Packaging_scriptlet_snippets) 4. /bin/sh has pointed to bash for a long time (not sure how long exactly). FTR, Fedora basically guarantees (sh == bash) for the purpose of rpm scriptlets (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Scriptlets) So Fedora <-> openSUSE portability may also be an issue to consider. If we can't assume that /bin/sh is bash, what else can we assume? I recall from earlier work that writing really 100% compatible shell code for all kinds of environments is really hard. E.g., "[" isn't 100% portable either, even though it's part of the POSIX "test" standard (http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/test.html) We should have clear rules which syntax expressions can be used in rpm scriptlets, and which can't. IMO we should define one of the various existing shells as a reference by saying "if it's supported by this shell, it's valid scriptlet code". That'd be easier (especially for testing compliance) than referring to a spec. That reference shell doesn't have to be bash, of course. Thanks Martin (*) For example: # ln -s /usr/bin/echo '/usr/bin/[[' # ls -l /bin/sh lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Feb 8 10:38 /bin/sh -> bash # /bin/sh --posix -c '[[ 2 = 1 ]] && echo yes' # dash -c '[[ 2 = 1 ]] && echo yes' 2 -eq 1 ]] yes -- Dr. Martin Wilck <mwilck(a)suse.com>, Tel. +49 (0)911 74053 2107 SUSE Linux GmbH, GF: Felix Imendörffer, Jane Smithard, Graham Norton HRB 21284 (AG Nürnberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] openSUSE:Factory git mirror update
by Bernhard M. Wiedemann 04 Oct '21

04 Oct '21

Hi, our experimental git mirror of openSUSE:Factory got a new feature: It now makes single commits from most individual updates with some useful info in the commit message. This makes the whole history much nicer to read: https://github.com/bmwiedemann/openSUSE/commits/master In the usual case of SRs it links back to the SR on OBS, because that is where most of the discussion might have happened: https://github.com/bmwiedemann/openSUSE/commit/d1afc9699 but sometimes direct commits happen and they are shown with the commit message and a link to the OBS change https://github.com/bmwiedemann/openSUSE/commit/b2786e5c8 Ideas for future work: In theory we could also track these packages' devel projects on a 'devel' branch In a similar fashion we could also track openSUSE:Leap:15.* on stable/leap15_N branches to allow offline diff We could try to enable osc build to work from such git dirs. Either this uses the OBS server-side logic to resolve dependencies to get the usual .osc/_buildinfo* and .osc/_buildconfig* files or we re-implement or re-use OBS server logic to allow builds when offline. And then (in the foggy far future) it would be possible to make a gateway back from github pull-requests or gitlab merge-requests to submitting SRs in OBS. Or we re-think how OBS handles its source files until then. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iY_ADUQiiQI&t=787 Ciao Bernhard M.

[opensuse-factory] new package: irqstat
by Dario Faggioli 24 Mar '21

24 Mar '21

Hello everyone, There's a new package in server:monitoring called `irqstat`, which I'd like to get into Factory: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/server:monitoring/irqstat It's a rather simple, but yet quite effective, python script for both online monitoring and offline parsing of the content of the special file /proc/interrupts. In fact, especially on large servers, where that file may have something like 550 lines and 224 columns (this is a real example, I'm not making numbers up :-) ), it may be very annoying to tell, e.g., how many IRQs a particular source is sending toward which CPUs using only the usual tools. And this is exactly where irqstat helps. There is more that can be done, and in fact, I'm also involved with upstream development (yes, for the ones that I've seen the other thread, I eventually did manage to get in touch with the maintainer!) and have some plans. E.g., improving the documentation is quite high in my TODO list for the project.

[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? Yours, V. -- Vojtěch Zeisek Komunita openSUSE GNU/Linuxu Community of the openSUSE GNU/Linux https://www.opensuse.org/ https://trapa.cz/

[opensuse-factory] Convert from classic to transactional server?
by seroton10＠gmail.com 02 Mar '21

02 Mar '21

Hi, When installing openSUSE (any flavour), the installer offers a choice between the "server" and "transactional server" roles, among others. If I choose to install using the "server" role, is there a (supported) procedure by which I can later convert it into a "transactional server"? (Assume using btrfs for /, and having snapshots.) I tried to do this conversion on a test system running openSUSE Leap 15.2 as follows: * run "zypper install patterns-base-transactional_base" * edit /etc/fstab to make root read-only * reboot This appears to work: The system self-updates, and reboots when needed; /etc has been turned into an overlay filesystem; and zypper up tells me to use the transactional-update tool. However, one of the packages installed during the conversion is "read- only-root-fs", and its description contains a rather stern warning: Files, scripts and directories to run the system with a read-only root filesystem with /etc writeable via overlayfs. This package should never be installed in an already running system! It should only be selected by a system role for a read-only root filesystem with transactional updates. The package will create / modify entries for mounting /etc and /var. Those entries are used by dracut to mount the overlay file systems during the early boot phase. After reading this, I ask myself, was it just dumb luck that the test system wasn't destroyed during the conversion? What can/does go wrong if read-only-root-fs is installed in an already running system, against the advice given? Any clarification on this would be much appreciated.

[opensuse-factory] Random desktop lockups with kernel 5.9.x
by John Paul Adrian Glaubitz 17 Jan '21

17 Jan '21

Hi! Ever since my machine got upgraded to kernel 5.9.x, my Tumbleweed installation is randomly locking up (KDE, X11). Booting into the last 5.8.x kernel fixes the problem, so it's definitely related to the kernel and not anything else. Does anyone else see such lockups? This is on a Dell E7470 laptop with Intel Skylake graphics (Skylake GT2 [HD Graphics 520]), in case it might be related to bugs in the GPU driver. Adrian

[opensuse-factory] Announcement: Run openQA tests with isotovideo in your CI pipelines
by Oliver Kurz 14 Dec '20

14 Dec '20

To all users of openQA or anyone interested in running system-level tests in CI jobs, I would like to make you aware of a new approach for running system-level tests using "isotovideo", the main backend of openQA tests, within continuous integration (CI) services, for example github actions, travis CI, gitlab CI, etc. Following an updated section https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst#getting-started it is possible to run "openQA tests" using a simple, convenient container based on tests that can be provided for example in a git repository. An easy example is described in https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-example#local-testing-and… Find the latest example CI run directly following https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-example/actions I consider the above approach very suitable if one wants to run system level tests following the "openQA test API" in any project where direct feedback from CI jobs is appreciated but only a limited number of test scenarios are needed, no heavy visual tests are run where the openQA web UI would provide a more convenient interface, or when wanting to test changes to already existing openQA tests but in pull requests before they are merged. For more elaborate examples a complete openQA setup is more suitable. If you want to read more about openQA in general visit http://open.qa/ There is also a single HTML file document http://open.qa/docs/ as well as a PDF version http://open.qa/docs/current.pdf Have fun, Oliver
