Out of curiosity, did you download OwnCloud RPMs from OBS? That's what I used and they work fine. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] openSUSE:Evergreen - 13.1?
by James Knott 02 Sep '14

02 Sep '14

According to this article, 13.1 is the latest Evergreen version and for that reason I just installed it on my firewall. However, there doesn't appear to be a link for making 13.1 Evergreen. Is there one available yet? http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Evergreen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] When connecting to my own dovecot server, Alpine complains that it is using self-signed certificates.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, When connecting to my own dovecot server, Alpine complains that it is using self-signed certificates. Yes, I know about the /novalidate-cert/ option in Alpine, but I have to type it on every single folder used anywhere: config, rules, etc. And I forget some. I wonder if I could configure somewhere that my self-signed certificate is correct, signed by me, that I'm a valid authority to sign certificates inside my network. My certificate is here: Telcontar:~ # mc /etc/ssl/certs/ Telcontar:/etc/ssl/certs # l | grep dove lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Jun 17 00:37 895d2550.0 -> dovecot.pem lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Jun 17 00:37 906230b5.0 -> dovecot.pem - -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1058 Jun 15 2013 dovecot.pem and here: Telcontar:/etc/ssl/private # l total 12 drwx------ 2 root root 4096 Aug 13 19:33 ./ drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Aug 13 19:33 ../ - -rw------- 1 root root 916 Jun 15 2013 dovecot.pem Telcontar:/etc/ssl/private # Do I need something else? - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

[opensuse] Opensuse 13.2 and 12.3 lifetime?
by Claudio ML 02 Sep '14

02 Sep '14

Hello all, I think the release of OpenSuSE 13.2 is a bit late as the normal, but how about the end of life of 12.3 ? It is annunced at 15 Sep, but i clearly read * openSUSE 12.3 <http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:12.3> - Sep 15th 2014 which is in *13 days (2 months after release of 13.2)* *But, if the 13.2 is realesed in november, as i can read, the support for the 12.3 is until december ? Is correct? * *Cordially, * *Claudio.* -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Bashism - Seeking input on filenames that contain non-printing control characters (examples)
by David C. Rankin 02 Sep '14

02 Sep '14

All, An issue recently came up on StackOverflow.com regarding shell scripts related to the use of 'ls -opts' to populate a loop structure in a shell script. Suffice it to say *in sum*, it is good practice to avoid this use of ls and to search for an alternative solution to fit your needs. That being so, there are some cases where the loop needs data in a sort order fashion, easily provided by ls, but requiring tortured, piped multiple external calls otherwise. The tweenies (those that 'know not' and 'know not' that they 'know not') took the position that simply mentioning ls as a method to feed a loop automatically condemned you to roast in hell for eternity. (despite TLDP BASH HowTo being riddled with examples) Those that 'know', said wait a minute, it is a portability issue, and the problems protected against are just those instances where non-printing control characters are embedded in the filename, such as a newline, carriage-return or null-terminating character inside the filename itself. Taking the position that if you know the set of filenames at issue does not contain any embedded nonsense (like daily server logs, etc.), then there are no other hidden adverse effects from using ls in this capacity. Certainly you would not be condemned to hell or have your eyes plucked out by dragons if you did. So that brings up the question: "Just which files do have embedded control characters (intentionally, and not as the result of some horrible mistake)?" The only example I have uncovered thus far is the OSX 'icon' file that has a 'carriage-return' intentionally embedded as part of the filename. What others have you run across or can think of? I could think of no better or more experienced group to consult that the good old "brain-trust". So just how prevalent are these filenames with embedded control characters? -- David C.

I was looking for a solution to the toshiba problem. I do note the power supply for the Dell is larger and likely has more amperage to support a system. I am left wondering if the longstanding issue of SuSE wireless setups being a pain if done after install has again popped up, therefore requiring a reinstall with the wireless connected forcing the system to install all needed software. Its more complicated with so small a screen 7x10 inches. I have also tested the Engenius on Desktops and they work fine as well. this is either a Toshiba issue or a SuSE issue and I was hoping someone here has experience to save me from a reinstall.
