Tumbleweed-update deletes user data
by Hagen Buliwyf 09 Oct '21

09 Oct '21

Dear Tumbleweed users, Last weekend i updated my Tumbleweed system (as i do almost every day using zypper dup). On the next reboot i discovered that the new GRUB2-theme which i had designed just the week before was gone and had been replaced by the standard openSUSE-theme. I ran rpmconfigcheck which showed nothing related to GRUB. So i checked /etc/default and found that there was a file grub.old and in /etc/default/grub the reference to my private GRUB2-theme had been replaced by a reference to the openSUSE-theme. I undid that change, ran grub2-mkconfig and restarted my system. Still my GRUB2-theme did not show up. A look in /boot/grub2/themes revealed that my GRUB2-theme was gone (deleted!). Checking bugzilla i found this: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1191251 However up to now nobody cared about this bugreport so i decided to place this message here as a warning to all of you. Regards Hagen

RFH: How to cross-compile rustc on openSUSE
by John Paul Adrian Glaubitz 07 Oct '21

07 Oct '21

Hello! I'm currently trying to cross-compile the Rust compiler on openSUSE but I'm running into the problem that the build system wants to invoke the cross-gcc compiler with the naming scheme $ARCH-linux-gnu-gcc where ARCH is the target architecture. However, on openSUSE, the cross-compiler prefix is $ARCH-suse-linux- which is why the build system can't find the cross-compiler although it has been installed. Does anyone know how to tell Rust's build system to use the proper cross-compile prefix, similar to the CROSS_COMPILE environment variable that the Linux kernel uses? Configuring the Rust compiler with "--host=$ARCH-suse-linux" doesn't work either. Thanks, Adrian

Survey Aims to Gain Packager, Maintainer Insights
by ddemaio 07 Oct '21

07 Oct '21

The openSUSE [1] Project is trying to gather more information from open-source developers, development teams, packagers and maintainers through the latest survey [2] that will run from Oct. 7 until Oct. 29. There are tools to monitor the health of packages, but the project doesn't have tools to monitor the health of packagers. Giving the floor to packagers, who are the dedicated working hands behind the betterment of distributions, will illuminate areas the openSUSE Project can improve upon to gain new contributors. The project wants to give the floor to the packagers so they can express as a group the challenges and complexities they face. The aim is to take this information and find ways to make their contributions more pleasant and rewarding. Apart from the typical demographics questions, there are questions about tooling, contributions and contributor satisfaction. Visit https://survey.opensuse.org/ to take the survey today. If you are aware that you are the only person who would match a specific question, please be aware that question is optional, so an answer is not required. v/r Doug Links: ------ [1] https://www.opensuse.org/ [2] https://survey.opensuse.org/

qbittorrent needs rebuild / bug #1191150
by Tejas Guruswamy 07 Oct '21

07 Oct '21

Hi all, Package qbittorrent needs a rebuild since boost 1.77 was checked in, currently available version in Factory is still built against 1.76 and crashes: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1191150 But mostly why I posting on the list is to understand why this was not automatic, the package has an explicit BuildRequires on boost (libboost_system-devel >= 1.65). Is this a build system bug, an oversight, or a misunderstanding? Tejas

digikam 7
by Achim Gratz 07 Oct '21

07 Oct '21

Since one of the latest updates for digikam (I think starting with version 7), digikam asks to download a face recognition engine on each startup with no option to skip the question that I can find. I find it very disconcerting that a packaged application would even ask for such a download (that engine doesn't seem to be packaged), but at least there should be an option for getting rid of it after seeing it one time. Regards, Achim. -- +<[Q+ Matrix-12 WAVE#46+305 Neuron microQkb Andromeda XTk Blofeld]>+ SD adaptations for Waldorf Q V3.00R3 and Q+ V3.54R2: http://Synth.Stromeko.net/Downloads.html#WaldorfSDada

However we want the mode/ownership adjusted by tmpfiles and avoid the duplication of these info in rpm. - Don't ghost own any directories created dynamically by tmpfiles Again rpmlint complains but it doesn't seem to make sense to try to track all paths (including theirs perms, ownerships...) created dynamically. And 'rpm -V' is likely to report issues later with these paths anyway. This effectively partially reverts the two previous commits. - Make sure the build process won't create /var/log/journal - /var/log/journal/remote is owned by systemd-journal-remote - systemd.spec: fix a bunch of rpmlint errors/warnings - Drop systemd-logger This sub package was introduced in order to configure persistent journal and also to make sure that another syslog provider (such as rsyslog) couldn't be installed at the same time: each syslog provider conflicts with each others. However this mechanism didn't work since uninstalling systemd-logger wasn't magically turning off persistent logging because /var/log/journal is likely to be populated hence not removed. Moreover using a subpackage to configure the mode of journald was overkill and the usual ways (main conf file or drop-ins) should be preferred. - Import commit 7a5801342fe2f53e5c2a8578d6db132c0eca2d97 8d65ec4a66 test: wc is needed by test/units/testsuite-50.sh 1527bcc5dd test: make the installation of the debug tools optional in the image f4e6bf0b37 journalctl: never fail at flushing when the flushed flag is set (bsc#1188588) - Update the dependencies of the testsuite package The debug tools are optional thus no more required.

Wierd behaviour of GtkSourceView since GNOME 41 dropped
by sp1rit 06 Oct '21

Good evening, I have noticed applications that use Gsv to behave wierdly since Tumbleweed 20210928. The two applications in question are: - GNOME Builder when clicking into the view to change the cursor location inside the buffer it also sets the vadjustment of the scrolled window that contains the view (so the "scrollbar") to whereever the cursor was before clicking. - NoteKit (home:sp1rit/notekit[0] / home:sp1rit/notekitpp) clicking into the view only works once, after that it ignores any interactions with the pointer. When letting the window out of focus and refocusing it, the click that refocuses it works but nothing after that. A workarround I found was to set the propagation phase of the GtkGestureMultiPress and GtkGestureDrag from the View to GTK_PHASE_CAPTURE using the inspector. However that doesn't work with Builder. I tried recreating this bug with a simple C application (attached below), but so far I'm unable to do so. Lyes Saadi <lyessaadi(a)fedoraproject.org> told me that he experienced this bug with NoteKit too, but only under GNOME but not under wlroots based swaywm (I've tested both Applications under wlroots based wayfire and also didn't experience these issues) Knowing this, I've set GDK_BACKEND to x11 and with it running under Mutters Xwayland it also works. I'm interested if anyone else has noticed anything regarding Gsv recently.

openSUSE:Factory - Build fail notification
by DimStar / Dominique Leuenberger 06 Oct '21

06 Oct '21

Dear Package maintainers and hackers. Below package(s) in openSUSE:Factory have been failing to build for at least 4 weeks. We tried to send out notifications to the configured bugowner/maintainers of the package(s), but so far no fix has been submitted. This probably means that the maintainer/bugowner did not yet find the time to look into the matter and he/she would certainly appreciate help to get this sorted. - perl-DBD-MariaDB - python-pandocfilters - rubygem-sassc-2.2 - suru-plus-dark-icon-theme Unless somebody is stepping up and submitting fixes, the listed package(s) are going to be removed from openSUSE:Factory. Kind regards, DimStar / Dominique Leuenberger <dimstar(a)opensuse.org>

New Web Browser with Pictures
by Gregory Cohen 05 Oct '21

05 Oct '21

Formal greetings everyone!! :) My name is Gregory Cohen. I am looking for developers to work on this new project with me. I have recently joined certain mailing lists, and I am looking to get the word out. There is no readme file yet, but I explain everything here, so don't get mad :) Feel free to ask me any questions about anything anytime. My email is gregorycohen2(a)gmail.com Some pictures https://imgur.com/4vRpN9m.png https://imgur.com/qKNkHxR.png https://imgur.com/vBy9XnW.png https://imgur.com/0zv6oSc.png https://imgur.com/WRVB9X1.png With Compiz https://imgur.com/sTzNUm9.png https://imgur.com/T9BeS0o.png Program is downloadable at ethicify.online/improve_the_world/tools/FOR_SHOW (FOR_SHOW folder includes scripts and binaries (non-malicious), everything can be recompiled) Emerald-browser (a radical new web browser, working prototype exists, BSD licensed (I could change this to GPL)) Goals Not bothersome (person shouldn't be bothered by anything) Full control To be fully written in C += 2 * Uses the same engine as Chrome, with QWebEngine Ubuntu and fedora have packages emerald-browser [number of terminals, default 1] C += 2 compiler is called "g+". It's a wrapper for g++ Usage g+ foo.cpp -O3 -Wall -Wextra -o foo Example C += 2 program --------------------------------------- main puts("Hello world") -------------------------------------- (No need for #includes) g+ is written in Ruby. It could be ported to Crystal TODO 1. Make g+ work better It doesn't support classes, structs or namespaces currently You can always #include C++ or C files though C += 2 is, and always will be a PREPROCESSOR FOR MODERN C++. IT CAN DO ANYTHING C++ CAN DO AND MORE. Some things I want to implement These should be a single unary option buton, like what GNOME 40 or Chrome has. In that, there should be many options. Maybe even things like Update System There should be a close button for panes. The source code should be tidied up, but please don't clutter it with too much OOP. Currently, everything gets googled. There could be a cache of some kind. Everything you would want to do on your computer, should be doable in this program. Currently, it makes a full-screen widget. If there could be a Compiz cube for tabs, that would be really interesting. There was a program that converted Chrome tabs to a filesystem extension. Maybe something like this could be added. Port to Mac. Port to Windows??? No Terminal then Port to FreeBSD Would need to work for certain in X and Wayland open should be improved To open tabs, do open [query1] [query2?]... (number of Google results per query to show in panes) Example open 'ruby talk' 'ruby docs' 3 That would open 3 google results for ruby talk, and 3 google results for ruby docs Googler is used to search google. Googler is automatically installed. Googler is written in python * This browser should be as fast or faster than Chrome. * Downloads don't currently work * Fullscreen doesn't currently work * Opening pages in new tabs doesn't currently work * You currently can't close tabs, only open them * The simplest way to close the browser currently is killall emerald-browser * Add signal and slot to close program when window closes. This doesn't currently happen. Back and forward buttons should be added, somewhere. Currently, you can right click, and do navigation A way to type in addresses manually should be added. Currently, you can do echo 'open [full url]' > /tmp/emerald-browser-fifo Doing echo open /home/' > /tmp/emerald-browser-fifo should work * Multiple instances needs to work * Want installation to be super simple. Download a binary * Let's get a fully functional browser, THEN care about packaging If there could be a flip 3d for tabs, that would be cool There's an interesting cover flow widget for Qt. Maybe that could be useful. Are you interested in collaborating? If you can help in any way, please send me a message :) Sincerely, Gregory David Evan Cohen gregorycohen2(a)gmail.com
