openSUSE:Factory - Build fail notification
by DimStar / Dominique Leuenberger 04 Dec '24

04 Dec '24

Dear Package maintainers and hackers. Below package(s) in openSUSE:Factory have had problems 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. - NumCpp: Fails to build - OOKiedokie: Fails to build - Regina-REXX: Fails to build - asusfan: Fails to build - authselect: Fails to build - cgdb: Fails to build - cinnamon-branding-openSUSE: Fails to build - ckermit: Fails to build - clustduct: Fails to build - cmpi-bindings: Fails to build - compface: Fails to build - compiz-plugins-extra: Fails to build - compsize: Fails to build - dump1090-fa: Fails to build - eciadsl-usermode: Fails to build - eekboard: Fails to build - erldash: Fails to build - fairymax: Fails to build - fdo-client: Fails to build - ffsb: Fails to build - frink: Fails to build - fritzing: Fails to build - galene: Fails to build - gammu: Fails to build - gcad3d: Fails to build - genders: Fails to build - gimp-gap: Fails to build - gnu-cobol: Fails to build - goldendict-ng: Fails to build - gqlplus: Fails to build - gtk-sharp3: Fails to build - hcode: Fails to build - hoard: Fails to build - iasimage: Fails to build - ibus-kkc: Fails to build - input-pad: Fails to build - interbench: Fails to build - kubeconform: Fails to build - lastpass-cli: Fails to build - latrace: Fails to build - ldapvi: Fails to build - leftwm: Fails to build - lemon: Fails to build - libGLC: Fails to build - libargtable2: Fails to build - libclaw: Fails to build - libcli: Fails to build - libfm: Fails to build - libisds: Fails to build - librep: Fails to build - libskk: Fails to build - libstfl: Fails to build - lmarbles: Fails to build - luvcview: Fails to build - macchina: Fails to build - maelstrom: Fails to build - manaplus: Fails to build - matrix-quaternion: Uninstallable: nothing provides libQuotientQt6.so.0.8()(64bit) needed by matrix-quaternion-0.0.95.84+git.20230827.3d7083a.x86_64 - mined: Fails to build - monitoring-plugins-mysql_health: Fails to build - moolticute: Fails to build - mozilla-zilla-slab-fonts: Fails to build - mozldap: Fails to build - mp: Fails to build - mrsh: Fails to build - ncftp: Fails to build - ncspot: Fails to build - netdate: Fails to build - nfswatch: Fails to build - nim: Fails to build - notmuch: Fails to build - obconf: Fails to build - octave-forge-tisean: Fails to build - octave-forge-vrml: Fails to build - openlierox: Fails to build - openvas-smb: Fails to build - openvino: Uninstallable: nothing provides libprotobuf-lite.so.25.4.0()(64bit) needed by libopenvino_onnx_frontend2440-2024.4.0.x86_64 - oto: Fails to build - owncloud-client: Fails to build - packETH: Fails to build - parsec: Fails to build - pcsc-gempc: Fails to build - perl-Authen-SASL-Cyrus: Fails to build - perl-DateTime-Format-Flexible: Fails to build - perl-GnuPG-Interface: Fails to build - perl-Inline-Python: Fails to build - perl-Net-AMQP-RabbitMQ: Fails to build - perl-Net-IDN-Encode: Fails to build - perl-UNIVERSAL-moniker: Fails to build - pidgin-sipe: Fails to build - pingtunnel: Fails to build - pocketsphinx: Fails to build - pongix: Fails to build - postfish: Fails to build - prelude-lml-rules: Fails to build - python-Kivy: Fails to build - python-aws-xray-sdk: Fails to build - python-dbus_fast: Fails to build - python-django-bootstrap3: Fails to build - python-django-contrib-comments: Fails to build - python-django-extensions: Fails to build - python-django-seed: Fails to build - python-django-sortedm2m: Fails to build - python-gpt4all: Fails to build - python-jenkinsapi: Fails to build - python-neovim: Fails to build - python-novaclient: Fails to build - python-pip-tools: Fails to build - python-pscript: Fails to build - python-py-gitea-opensuse-org: Fails to build - python-py-moneyed: Fails to build - qdl: Fails to build - qxmledit: Fails to build - reaim: Fails to build - rep-gtk: Fails to build - resample: Fails to build - rinetd: Fails to build - rox-filer: Fails to build - schedtool: Fails to build - scim-skk: Fails to build - scmon: Fails to build - sdcv: Fails to build - sgrep: Fails to build - sleuth: Fails to build - slrn: Fails to build - snack: Fails to build - softhsm: Fails to build - spacefm: Fails to build - sphinx: Fails to build - sphinxbase: Fails to build - sphinxbase5: Fails to build - stardict: Fails to build - taigo: Fails to build - terminus: Fails to build - thttpd: Fails to build - tint2: Fails to build - tktable: Fails to build - torsocks: Fails to build - ttf2pt1: Fails to build - upm: Fails to build - veyon: Fails to build - virt-scenario: Fails to build - vocal: Fails to build - wine-nine-standalone: Fails to build - xar: Fails to build - xbench: Fails to build - xcolors: Fails to build - xengine: Fails to build - xf86-video-fbturbo: Fails to build - xf86-video-fbturbo-live: Fails to build - xmgrace: Fails to build - xmorph: Fails to build - xroach: Fails to build - zile: Fails to build Unless somebody is stepping up and submitting fixes, the listed package(s) are going to be removed from openSUSE:Factory.

Proposal: Update default build flags to enable frame pointers
by Neal Gompa 03 Dec '24

03 Dec '24

Hello, I would like to change openSUSE's default build flags in rpm and rpm-config-SUSE to incorporate frame pointers (and equivalents on other architectures) to support real-time profiling and observability on SUSE distributions. In practice, this would mean essentially adopting the same tunables that exist in Fedora[1] for openSUSE to turn them on by default and to allow packages or OBS projects to selectively opt out as needed. The reasons to do so are threefold: * It is a major competitive disadvantage for us to lack the ability to do cheap real-time profiling and observability. Fedora[2], Ubuntu[3], Arch Linux[4], and AlmaLinux[5] all now do this, and thus support this capability. * The performance hit for having it vs not is insignitifcant[6]. * There are new tools in both the cloud-native and regular systems development worlds that leverage this, and openSUSE should be an enabler of those technologies. I want openSUSE to be a great place for people to develop and optimize workloads on, especially desktop ones, where most of the tooling we have for tracing and profiling is broken without frame pointers (see Sysprof and Hotspot from GNOME and KDE respectively, which both rely on frame pointers to have cheap real-time tracing for performance analysis). And given that we advertise as the "makers' choice", I think it would definitely be on-brand for us to have the capability to better support makers and shakers. For those interested in more detail about frame pointers, Brendan Gregg has a decent post about it[7]. I have also submitted a parallel request for openSUSE Leap 16 to have this feature enabled too[8]. I truly believe this would give us an even better footing with the broader community of developers and operators and make SUSE distributions very attractive for FOSS and proprietary software alike.

Tumbleweed snapshot 20241127 update issue
by Ulf 30 Nov '24

30 Nov '24

During the update, following issue is visible (desktop switch to another tty with the logoff screen (tty1). But with <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<F3> switching to the running sessin in tty3 is still possible. The zypper dup - darcut script in the tmux session shows %posttrans(kernel-firmware-all-20241125-1.1.noarch) script output: /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/connman_resolvconf.conf:1: Line references path below legacy directory /var/run/, updating /var/run/connman → /run/connman; please update the tmpfiles.d/ drop-in file accordingly. And hangs. After 30min, I type <ctrl>+<c> --> ^C Trying to exit gracefully ... Nothing happens since 10min. Will waite some time and reboot afterwards. Ulf

LoongArch initial bootstrap started
by John Paul Adrian Glaubitz 29 Nov '24

29 Nov '24

Hello, I have begun with the initial bootstrap of openSUSE Tumbleweed for LoongArch as a result of the work during my Hackweek project for 2024 [1]. I have used a fast LoongArch server running Debian's unstable distribution for loong64 and used a chroot and Debian's own rpm package to build all the packages. I have written down a very quick and dirty guide how it was done below. There are a few packages left that I haven't built yet, some of them failed at my first attempts, so I continued with other packages. The packages still missing include gcc, binutils, glibc and python311. Since I have already managed to build a cross- toolchain for loongarch64 [2], I assume cross-building the toolchain for loongarch64 on openSUSE form x86_64 might be easier but I haven't tried that yet. My initial set of packages has been uploaded to [3], the OBS project using these packages can be found in [4]. A simple guide on how to set up a LoongArch system with QEMU can be found in [5]. If anyone is interested in helping with this effort, please let me know. In particular, it would be great if someone could help me build the remaining packages, especially the toolchain packages.
