Tumbleweed - Review of the week 2022/47
by Dominique Leuenberger / DimStar 26 Nov '22

26 Nov '22

Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers, Apologies for sending out the review a day late, somehow I was drowning myself in build fixes yesterday, lost track of time, and suddenly it was too late. But of course, you are all curious to hear what happened during this week and, most likely even more interested in what the future holds for us. We again published a full 7 snapshots (1118…1124), of which 1124 did not have a Changes file generated, and thus no announcement mail was sent out (which will need to be investigated). The most relevant changes in those snapshots were: * libinput 1.22.0: A new flat acceleration profile for trackpoints, making them more usable in some cases * ibus: switch to systemd service to start ibus daemon (boo#1201421) * Mesa 22.2.4 * bind 9.18.9 * Virtualbox 7.0.4 * MariaDB 10.10.2 * llvm 15.0.5 * Nodejs 19.1.0 * pipewire 0.3.60 * Samba 4.17.3 * Poppler 22.11.0 * Memcached: binary was moved to /usr/bin to be aligned with RHEL and Debian (some of our build scripts explicitly expect it in /usr/sbin, those need to be adjusted) * Apparmor 3.1.2 * Meson 0.64.0 Things that are currently in stagings or already passed and will be part of the next few snapshots: * VLC 3.0.18 * Meson 0.64.1 * Icewm 3.2.2 * SQLite 3.40.0 * Python setuptools 65.6.3 * Libgcrypt 1.10.1 * gawk 5.2.1 * rubygem-rspec 3.12.0: YaST is in the progress of catching up with the needed changes * Switch default from ffmpeg4 to ffmpeg5 (opencv3 is the last package missing) * Switch to openSSL 3 (Status can be tracked in Staging:N) Cheers, Dominique

Issues with Plasma Lockscreen and pam_u2f: Unlock needed for each monitor?
by Johannes Kastl 26 Nov '22

26 Nov '22

Hi all, this has been annoying me for several months/years and I always forgot to open up a bug report: I am using pam_u2f to unlock my Plasma/KDE lock screen using a U2F device (the predecessor of FIDO). ``` # /etc/pam.d/kde #%PAM-1.0 auth sufficient pam_u2f.so openasuser [...] ``` Works like a charm with sudo. Works like a charm with the lockscreen, if the laptop is not connected to an external monitor. Works with two external monitors connected, but it seems I need to go through the "press U2F device and click the 'unlock' button" process for each monitor. In my case, three times. Sometimes it seems to be enough to just have 2 of each, however: Once should be enough. This looks like a bug in Plasma, but what component should the bug be opened against? Anyone else experiencing the same? (I am not sure if this also explains why the fingerprint sensor is not working in plasma unlocking, but works for sudo, but that might be another story) Kind Regards, Johannes -- Johannes Kastl Linux Consultant & Trainer Tel.: +49 (0) 151 2372 5802 Mail: kastl(a)b1-systems.de B1 Systems GmbH Osterfeldstraße 7 / 85088 Vohburg http://www.b1-systems.de GF: Ralph Dehner Unternehmenssitz: Vohburg / AG: Ingolstadt,HRB 3537

Illegal (e.g. patented) software in users home projects
by Stefan Brüns 26 Nov '22

26 Nov '22

Hi everyone, there are several users who are hosting packages like libx264 and libx265 in their home repositories. They do although it is clearly stated in https://en.opensuse.org/ openSUSE:Build_Service_application_blacklist[1] "This page lists a number of applications that neither can become part of openSUSE distribution **nor can be hosted** on the Build Service[2] for legal reasons." (emphasis mine) When pointed to the above page, often the users just give rude answers, and keep the packages. Apparently, the users are either not aware they put SUSE and the openSUSE project at risk, or they just do not care. Whats the best option here? Kind regards, Stefan -- Stefan Brüns / Bergstraße 21 / 52062 Aachen phone: +49 241 53809034 mobile: +49 151 50412019 -------- [1] https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Build_Service_application_blacklist

New grub2 in TW cleans all other distros in the menu??
by Fritz Hudnut 25 Nov '22

25 Nov '22

> Packages changed: > SDL2 (2.24.2 -> 2.26.0) > grub2 > lsof > mariadb (10.9.3 -> 10.10.2) > nfs-utils > orc (0.4.32 -> 0.4.33) > python-anyio (3.5.0 -> 3.6.2) > sudo (1.9.12 -> 1.9.12p1) > virtualbox (6.1.40 -> 7.0.4) > virtualbox-kmp (6.1.40_k6.0.8_1 -> 7.0.4_k6.0.8_1) > > Dear factory people: Yesterday was "TW" day, so I did system maintenance and ran a zypper . . . prior to seeing this email from Dominique, sent today . . . . I saw the "grub2" listed in the upgrades and thought for a second . . . "abort" . . . but TW was previously my grub menu controller so I thought, "OK, we'll go back to TW instead of Leap 15.5 as the master grub controller" and ran it through. Shut the machine down to go to work. This morning I boot the machine and grub menu loads . . . ONE system, just TW--rather than 7 or 8!!??? Everybody else was wiped from the list . . . ran a few commands to "restore" os-prober & shut down . . . and on cold boot . . . nothing, no grub for even TW. Got the Super Grub2 disk out and booted into Leap 15.5 . . . ran the grub2-mkconfig command and upgraded a few packages via zypper . . . shut down. On cold boot, nothing again . . . just the black grub error window . . . . Installed Gparted and checked for what was showing as booted and now it appears that Leap is booting from another drive rather than the one I installed it in . . . ??? Checking /etc/fstab and it appears that UUIDs have been changed . . . as well??? Giving thanks for the wonderful new grub2 package . . . seems like it's the same package that ubuntu is using?? Because about a year back ubuntu did the same thinig where it assumes to be the only system that needs booting, and messed about with the UUIDs and /etc/fstab settings of the other distros . . . now if only I could remember how I fixed it back then. Giving Thanks . . . . : - 0 F multi-boot guy . . . now busted down to using SuperGrub2 disk to boot a system

trace-cmd build fails due to due make 'not recursively expanding'
by Daniel Wagner 25 Nov '22

Hi, trace-cmd stop building and due to make getting stuck in loop and complaining with: $ make -d GNU Make 4.4 Built for x86_64-suse-linux-gnu Copyright (C) 1988-2022 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Any ideas? This happens with our packaged version in Tumbleweed but also with the plain upstream latest git version of trace-cmd. If I got it right make was updated recently to 4.4. Daniel

TW 20221123 hangs on boot with encrypted partition
by Axel Braun 25 Nov '22

25 Nov '22

Morning all, did a dup from 20221119 to 20221123 last night and encountered that the machine does not boot anymore. In the log I can see that it asks for the password for the encrypted /home partition - not displayd by plymouth - and then it runs through to a little cursor on the top left corner of the screen. No input possible, needed to power down the machine. Tried several times to complete boot process but failed 20221123 came with a change in grub - is that the issue? boo#1205748 Cheers Axel

New: systemd-status-mail - crons MAILTO for systemd timer
by Thorsten Kukuk 24 Nov '22

24 Nov '22

Hi, for os-update (https://manpages.opensuse.org/os-update) I wanted to be informed, if the update failed. cron had this nice "MAILTO" feature, so I wrote something similar for systemd services as subpackage: systemd-status-mail (https://manpages.opensuse.org/systemd-status-mail) It can send an email with the output of journalctl of the service in case it fails and/or succeeds.

23 Nov '22

Hello openSUSE! Just a friendly reminder that the feature cutoff for SLES 15 SP5 and openSUSE Leap 15.5 Beta Code submission + package drop *deadline is on 25th January 2022 15:00 UTC. Both Leap 15.5 and SLES 15 SP5 are conservative releases, so please respect deadlines. I expect SLE release management to be very strict afterward. Changes that are not bug fixes or features with an approved *ECO will not be accepted. When it comes to Community maintained packages, there we're a bit more flexible as long as the feature is *tracked and communicated ahead of. As an example the recently approved *Plasma 5.27 LTS to be a little bit late on delivery due to its roadmap. Just please make sure that all dependencies on the SLE side are submitted and accepted before January 25th. If you're submitting a new package to Leap 15.5 please make sure to submit it explicitly against openSUSE:Backports:SLE-15-SP5. Details can be found in *Packaging Guidelines for Leap. More details in the referenced roadmap.
