[SLE] Yast and Zen have different idea about updates?
by Don Raboud 27 Jul '06

27 Jul '06

Hi all, I have noticed a situation in which both Yast and Zen see the same packages, but give different indications about which is the most up-to-date. According to the Zen updater, there is an update available for kipi-plugins. (I know this update has been available for some time now, but I have not updated it yet). According to the Zen details, update version: 0.1.0rc1-19 installed version: 0.1.0_0.1-1.pm.1 However, I have been doing most of my updates through Yast. When I look at this package in Yast Online Update, I see the following versions are available 0.1.0rc1-19 (from the DVD) 0.1.0_0.1-1.pm.1 (from Packman) <-- Installed version According to Yast however, there is no update available. The installed version is the most up-to-date. So I have two questions... 1) Which of these is correct? 2) Is this a bug in either Zen or Yast, or is this a problem specific to the kipi-plugins package. For anyone interested (not a large number I am quite sure), I have included some additional information below which, while possibly related, doesn't really change any issues raised above. ---------------- In Yast Online Update, under Change log for kipi-plugins-0.1.0_0.1-1.pm.1 the first listing is an update to 0.1.0-rc1 in Nov 2005 which seems to indicate that 0.1.0_0.1-1.pm.1 supercedes 0.1.0-rc1. However, according to <http://extragear.kde.org/apps/kipi/> "The most stable KipiPlugins tarball is version 0.1.0-rc2" So this would seem to indicate that Zen got this right in this situation (see below). As a final note, there is another version 0.1.0rc2-11.4 from <http://software.opensuse.org/download/KDE:/Backports/SUSE_Linux_10.1/i586/> which also shows up under Yast but not under Zen because that repository does not seem to be listed when I run "rug sl". I didn't include this in the above since that behavior didn't change if I remove this repository from Yast. Yast still indicates that 0.1.0_0.1-1.pm.1 is the most up to date. -- Don -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help(a)suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq(a)suse.com

[opensuse] Cluster and SuSE
by Yu Safin 27 Jul '06

27 Jul '06

I currently have an application that runs Oracle under one SuSE server and Java in-house code in another SuSE server. I was wondering if anybody can suggest a cluster solution so I can have my Java code duplicated in two+ SuSE servers. How about Oracle, can I cluster Oracle to run on two+ servers? I am trying to achieve not only higher availability but also put to work some hardware servers I have on the floor collecting dust. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-help(a)opensuse.org

[SLE] KDE:/KDE3/SUSE_Linux_10.1 unsigned repomd.xml
by Stan Glasoe 27 Jul '06

27 Jul '06

I'm getting the following error when trying to add the KDE repository in SUSE 10.1. This same URL worked fine earlier yesterday but quit sometime last night. # rug sa -t zypp http://software.opensuse.org/download/KDE:/KDE3/SUSE_Linux_10.1/ KDE Adding zypp service... 0% ERROR: Could not add 'http://software.opensuse.org/download/KDE:/KDE3/SUSE_Linux_10.1/': Failed to parse XML metadata: Unsigned file '/repodata/repomd.xml (http://software.opensuse.org/download/KDE:/KDE3/SUSE_Linux_10.1/)' I've tried this with the generic software.opesuse.org and at ftp-1.gwdg.de so I'm guessing its an error that is being propagated to other mirrors.?.? Or have I missed the magic of adding repo signatures in rug/zmd/yast/smart/apt? Not sure how to report this to someone that can fix it. Should I bugzila this or what?

[opensuse] bash \r
by Jan Engelhardt 27 Jul '06

27 Jul '06

Heya, since SUSE Linux 10.1, bash always reprints the prompt. This created very weird output that is hidden too...: 19:26 shanghai:/var/run/pam_mount > echo -en "abcdefghijklm" >jengelh 19:26 shanghai:/var/run/pam_mount > cat jengelh 19:26 shanghai:/var/run/pam_mount > /pam_mount > It looks like it does print $PS1 then '\r' and then $PS1 again. Is there a way to turn this off? Besides hiding non-'\n'-output (like from the test file), it also slows down remote shell access with high-latency links.
