tl;dr: Enable DRM for all graphics output and retire fbdev drivers in TW.
Hi!
For quit a few releases, Linux' DRM stack has been able to provide
display output from the early boot stages on. Next year, we want to
modernize Tumbleweed's graphics stack and use DRM for all graphics output.
To get graphics output during the early stages of booting, Linux
still uses fbdev infrastructure and a few HW-independed drivers, such as
efifb and vesafb.
This functionality is now available in DRM as well. We will switch
early-boot graphics from fbdev to DRM and retire the related fbdev
drivers. Fbdev userspace interfaces (i.e., /dev/fb0) will still be
available via the new driver.
The change has no effect on graphics output of the fully booted machine.
Just as now, at some point during boot, a hardware-specific driver, such
as amdgpu, i915, etc., will take over the display.
Why switch? The generic DRM driver provides a fallback for all systems
without hardware-specific drivers. Even with broken hardware drivers,
generic DRM can most likely boot and provide graphics output. This isn't
easily possible with fbdev. Fbdev has been out of date for several
years. Modern graphics userspace slowly uses the ability to run on top
of fbdev. Most notably, wayland compositors are affected by this. We
also have received reports about systems being unable to boot because of
fbdev.
TW's X11 and userspace should be ready (sans bugs). If you want to test,
Takashi provides a kernel that has full-DRM enabled at
https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/tiwai:/simpledrm/
If you install and boot the kernel, you should ideally see no
difference. Once booted the hardware's driver will do the graphics
output. To test if you booted with generic DRM, do
dmesg | grep drm
on the command line. The output should mention 'simpledrm' somewhere. If
you want to run your system with the generic driver only, pass
nomodeset
on the kernel command line in Grub. The booted system should run with
only software rendering, but provide useful output via X11, wayland and
console.
We welcome bug reports. If you find issues, please leave a comment in

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.
- cage
- rubygem-debase
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>
Hi,
I think it's time to retire NIS. The current code is now over 25 years
old, and the protocol had already 25 years ago big drawbacks. Which SUN
tried to solve with NIS+, but that wasn't really successful.
Which leads to the problem that the few NIS users run more and more into
problems, since NIS doesn't fit anymore together with current network
technologies, security requirements and in general modern technologies
like Container and k8s.
Additional quite some of the features don't work anymore in most networks
or at all and we had to patch several core libraries so that NIS can still
work.
RPC itself, the base service, also has many limitations and was never
designed for current network technologies and is creating more and more
problems today. So the increasing work is not because of bugs in the code,
but because the technology around changed incompatible.
My plan is:
- drop ypserv from Factory
- remove our own changes for NIS from the code
- drop ypbind/yp-tools/libnss_nis/... from Factory
Of course, the code will still exist in the network:NIS devel project
and continues to stay there, at least as long as it works without major
efford. But we will not revert new changes in core libraries only to keep
NIS working.
And we will of course not patch upstream tools having NIS support like the
dhcp server and clients, but you will have to configure this yourself.
So if you are still using NIS, you should think about switching to
something more modern and secure, e.g. LDAP.

Hello openSUSE!
this is a friendly reminder that the code submission deadline for
openSUSE Leap 15.4 Beta is February 16th. Same as the code submission
deadline for SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP4 Public Beta. SLE 15 SP4 has
additionally a feature cutoff deadline of February 2nd. This is when
SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP4 should be feature-full and we should
ideally receive only bug fixes later.
The later features would be late features handled via a separate late
feature process (ECO) https://en.opensuse.org/ECO . We're here to help
you with these cases.
This and more details in https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Roadmap and
https://en.opensuse.org/Feature_Planning_15.4
** Two tips that I'd like to share with you **
If you're submitting a new package to openSUSE Leap:
Please submit it directly to openSUSE Backports. I had to reject some
new package submissions that were accidentally submitted to SUSE:SLE-
15*. Simply do osc sr ... openSUSE:Backports:SLE-15-SP4
If you're trying to update a SLE package please reference an issue in
the SR text. Examples boo#123456 or feature jsc#SLE-12345 /
jsc#OPENSUSE-12345. Submit requests without issue references will be
rejected with an ask to resubmit with issue reference.

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

Greetings all
Letting you all know that we have removed the packages
gstreamer-plugins-bad and gstreamer-plugins-ugly (and their
sub-packages) for Tumbleweed. Leap stays as it has been in the past.
In the future only the plugins not available in main oss from these 2
will be packaged and shipped (gstreamer-plugins-libav will continue to
exist for now).
This means that user will encounter that zypper expect/wants you to do
a vendor change for a lot of gstreamer packages if you currently have
them installed from the packman repo. This is expected and you should
go ahead with the vendor change.
Once done, you should be left with only 2 (or 4 if you have
gst-*32-bits installed aswell).
Those will be:
gstreamer-plugins-bad-codecs
gstreamer-plugins-ugly-codecs
(and depending on 32-bit or not)
gstreamer-plugins-bad-codecs-32bit
gstreamer-plugins-ugly-codecs-32bit
/Bjørn
Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers,
This week we managed to do the impossible: despite missing one snapshot
0220), we STILL published 7 snapshots (0217, 0218, 0219, 0221, 0222,
0223, and 0224). Of course, this just happens by coincidence, as 0217
could only be released late evening and 0224 happens to come out
already before writing the weekly review.
And what did those snapshots bring us? See for yourself:
* KDE Plasma 5.24.1 (0217) & 5.24.2 (0224)
* KDE Frameworks 5.91.0
* Linux kernel 5.16.10 (simpledrm disabled again)
* systemd 249.10
* systemd packaging changes: systemd-sysvinit will be renamed to
systemd-sysvcompat: most users won’t need it (sysv support is minimized
anyway, and Tumbleweed no longer ships any sysv init script)
* Mozilla Firefox 97.0.1
* expat 2.4.6
* tigervnc 1.12.0: the ‘vncserver’ script no longer exists, see
https://github.com/TigerVNC/tigervnc/blob/master/unix/vncserver/HOWTO.md
That’s pretty cool and everything reported last week as coming (except
the gcc12 and python long-lasting efforts) have thus been delivered. As
usual, we don’t stop there, and staging projects are already prepared
with these updates:
* Linux kernel 5.16.11 (also addressing build fails with gcc12)
* Mesa 21.3.7
* Python 3.6 interpreter will be removed (We have roughly 45
python36-FOO packages left)
* Python 3.10 as the distro default interpreter (a bit down the line,
after py36 is done)
* GCC 12 introduction has started to be as ready as possible for when
the upstream release happens.
Cheers,
Dominique

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.
- openmw
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>
