[yast-devel] openSUSE 13.1 M3 with YaST in Ruby
by David Majda 15 Jul '13

15 Jul '13

Hi, YCP Killer project here. We just published images of openSUSE 13.1 M3 with YaST in Ruby [*]. You can download them from here: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/YaST:/Head:/ruby/images/iso/ (use the *.iso files with "Milestone3" in their names) If you have a bit of time, please help us test these. We are mainly interested to know whether everything in the installation and YaST itself works in the same way for you as in regular M3 (which still uses YCP-based YaST). See below for more info about the project, detailed instructions on downloading & running the DVDs, on reporting bugs, etc. This is the last testing release before planned integration of our work into M4 (see [1]). We will post more detailed plan regarding the integration shortly. YCP Killer Project ------------------ The goal of the YCP Killer project [2] is to rewrite YaST code written in YCP into Ruby, to make maintenance and feature development easier. The translation itself is done automatically using Y2R [3] -- a YCP to Ruby transpiler. We plan to finish the translation soon and integrate everything into openSUSE 13.1 M4. We created modified M2 and M3 builds as testbeds that allow others to help us with testing and exercising the translated code in various situations. Download Details ---------------- We have two installation images: * fullDVD -- basically the Milestone 3 DVD ISO * miniDVD -- just a subset of packages needed for "Minimal X" installation (other modes than "Minimal X" and "Minimal Text Mode" will fail) If possible, please use the fullDVD, as this is more similar to real-world openSUSE DVD. Note the images are available only for x86_64 to save OBS resources. Installation ------------ You need to manually add "insecure=1" boot option because the ISOs are not signed by the official openSUSE GPG key. You will also need to accept the OBS YaST:Head:ruby GPG key when adding the installation repository during installation. Known issues ------------ * Bootloader configuration fails when one tries to change it from the default. Reporting Bugs -------------- Please report any bugs as Github issues against the YCP Killer project: https://github.com/yast/ycp-killer/issues Bonus points for verifying that the bug doesn't occur in regular M3 (which means it isn't an upstream bug, but ours). If you are not sure whether something is a bug, or have any questions, feedback, etc., feel free to contact us via #yast channel on freenode or via yast-devel(a)opensuse.org. Happy testing :-) ----- [1] http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2013-05/msg00361.html [2] https://github.com/yast/ycp-killer [3] https://github.com/yast/y2r [*] The packages on the DVDs may not be *exactly* the versions found in M3, but they are close enough, as they were built in the same time period as M3. -- David Majda SUSE Studio developer http://susestudio.com/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: yast-devel+owner(a)opensuse.org

[yast-devel] YaST bindings for Python3?
by Kshitij Gupta 15 Jul '13

15 Jul '13

Hello everyone, I am Kshitij and I'm working on Profile Tools for AppArmor using Python3 under Google Summer of Code'13. This may have been asked before, but I tried searching on the net and asking on the IRC channel too but could not find an answer. The present tools (in Perl) have a YaST interface besides the CLI, as I'm re-writing them in Python3 (Python 3.3 to be precise) and a few additional tools I also have to interface with YaST. I was able to find yast2-bindings for python but they are for Python2.7, but not for Python3. I would be very grateful if somebody can help me in this regard.

[yast-devel] openSUSE-Factory-DVD-i586-Build0567-Media.iso
by Stephan Kulow 10 Jul '13

10 Jul '13

Hi, I tested latest Factory DVD and yast segfaults during bootloader config ;( I would welcome if someone can have a look. On related news: Steffen and me built a package that has all the debuginfos used in first stage initrd and make them available through "extend root-debuginfos" (when it's part of the install medium of course). Not sure if you actually need it, but I found it rather useful to have (in the NET repo).

[yast-devel] Yast UI in Ruby: Formatting, Usage...
by Lukas Ocilka 03 Jul '13

03 Jul '13

Hi, I've created a new pull request yesterday https://github.com/yast/yast-services-manager/pull/17/files that changes some ui-related code. Right now, it doesn't seem we have any agreement on how the code should look like in future. Some Examples ============= Table ----- https://github.com/kobliha/yast-services-manager/blob/fd1fe09c533a5f7b1f72e… Everything on a separate line or should be something joint? ChangeWidget ------------ https://github.com/kobliha/yast-services-manager/blob/fd1fe09c533a5f7b1f72e… One line rules them all or everything on its own line. From my POV, it actually doesn't matter that much. What matters is consistency within the rest of the code (or a library, Yast module...). Any opinions? Links to docu?

[yast-devel] Package libyui-gtk-pkg doesn't build in YaST:Head/openSUSE_12.3
by Lukas Ocilka 02 Jul '13

02 Jul '13

Hi, It seems that for some reason, libyui-gtk-pkg needs libzypp-devel >= 13.0.0 which is not available there. Other packages build. Is the dependency really needed? Can you fix it, to build, please?
