Hello,
I would be interested if it would be in different time or if meeting
takes only 30 minutes ;-) You can mark me as last hope if anyone else
won't be interested.

Haven't realized. OK then, moving meeting to 

7th September (Tuesday), 18:00 UTC 

Alternatively we could meet at 15:00 UTC, but that would be a bit too
soon for western coast of US I guess.

Thank you for suggestion, I looked and it's not available at the time of
meeting (it would be if the meeting was at 16:00 UTC, but then west
coast would be still asleep :-) )

...But all in all not such a big problem because I'd expect most

Once we get things running we'll work out these things I guess.

Well, can't we automatically forbid to build a package, if the version is 
higher 
than the existing version in higher Fedora _base_ releases?

This would prevent also that in F12-updates higher versions exist than in 
F13-release, which prevents clean updates sometimes.

Another approach is to put the %{dist} in the epoch :)

At my work, first thing that happens with Java is that Openjdk gets
thrown out of the window and is replaced with Oracle's JRE.

That of course is not going to make openjdk less buggy or 
get more testers, so what I'd like to see is a some kind of 
wiki page of its implications.

- what breaks if openjdk is removed
- what works & what doesn't with openjdk
- what integration issues there are with Fedora/EPEL and Oracle JRE
- what is gained if openjdk can be used and kept in place as a default JRE
- ?

This page should be something to convince to those who remove 
openjdk. Keeping it compact and focusing on that audience.

Removing openjdk is a chicken and egg problem, perhaps that wiki 
page could avoid some of those cases with small effort from Fedora's 
side?

mock-scm - a simple utility to integrate Mock with SCMs

2010-09-02 Thread Marko Myllynen
Hi all,

some people build their local RPMs with Mock because a Koji instance
might be a bit overkill in smaller environments. Keeping spec files and
possible patches under version control is always a good idea but
unfortunately Mock can't just be pointed to SCM repositories.

Well, until now: mock-scm fetches spec and other files from SCM and
source packages either from SCM or a local directory, then it constructs
the source RPM on the fly and feeds it to Mock and finally collects the
results. So nothing extraordinary but might come in handy for those who
prefer keeping things under version control but don't want to set up a
Koji instance for building occasionally a handful of RPMs.

mock-scm currently supports CVS and Git but adding, e.g., SVN should be
just few lines. It might need some tweaking to match different SCM/spec
conventions but that is left as an exercise for the reader. mock-scm can
be download from

http://myllynen.fedorapeople.org/

Cheers,

Every java package in Fedora is tested with only OpenJDK and/or GCJ there is 
no way we can test/guarantee that Fedora package works with any JVM that is 
not build into Fedora properly.

> - what works & what doesn't with openjdk
Heh, it depends on your workflow. OpenJDK is working perfectly for me in my 
daily work as a software tools developer :).

Well we have a huge issue here. There is no legal way to import Oracle JRE 
into Fedora so there is no way we can make use of it in Fedora.

We gain the ability to build and run Java Software which is huge gain.

Fedora should not and will not promote usage of Oracle JRE. Go read it's 
license http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-6u21-
license-159167.txt . It's proprietary and it's against basic Fedora 
principles. Read details about the Oracle/Sun's JRE licencing and problems 
with it in Mark's blog post 
http://gnu.wildebeest.org/blog/mjw/2009/11/14/trusting-companies-with-your-
code/

Please never, ever add anything promoting proprietary software on Fedora wiki.

Removing OpenJDK is out of scope for Fedora unless you can give us a better 
open-source alternative.

Adobe Flash Player is not produced for x86_64 architecture by vendor.
(It used to be, however it containted serious security flaws). To use
it by 64b Firefox, you need to install a wrapper that converts 64b NPAPI
to 32b. However according my experience it causes crashes (tested on
Gentoo).

So IMHO there is no way how to use Adobe Flash Player on x86_64.

Which error message, which version?

I have no problem when Gnash 0.8.8 is compiled against ffmpeg (Gentoo again,
sorry).

I tried this viedeo  on
Fedora 13. It's compiled against Gstreamer, and it complainead about
missng AAC decoder. I installed gstreamer-plugins-bad
(http://www.gstreamer.net/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gst-plugins-bad-plugins/html/gst-plugins-bad-plugins-plugin-faad.html)
 and the sound in
Gnash started to work. Video worked already becuase of other gstreamer
plugin probably.

However these gstreamer plugins are not in offical Fedora repository
because of regional patents. They come from rpmfusion-free repositories.

Is this problem with flash not working on x86_64 architecture limited to
Fedora or what?
I use Ubuntu 10.04 64bit as my primary operating system and have 32bit
Flash installed with wrapper inside Firefox 4.0 beta 4 and have no
problems.
There I ask the question, what is wrong with doing the same thing in
Fedora?

Err no you are wrong, it is working fine here on multiple systems
using the wrapper on x86_64 and it does not cause a single crash.

That would get in the way of a number of useful cases.  For instance,
what if you try to launch builds for several branches in parallel, and
one of the back branches happens to execute first?

What I think would be useful would be to extend the broken-dependency
nagbot so that it also nags if you have a back-branch that's NVR-newer
than any later branch.

IOW: nag good, preventing people from doing their work bad.

This doesn't mention the important problem that prompted the discussion in
FESCo the other day:

When you do an update in F-14 and rely on inheritance to get the package
into rawhide, there is a problem.  That package will not go to rawhide until
it hits stable in F-14.  That means, for the typical F-14 workflow of:

* build for f14.
* Push to testing in f14
* Wait one to two weeks for the package to receive some testing
* Push to stable

rawhide is left with an older inherited build until it is pushed to stable.

i ran into this a few weeks ago when trying to get started on F15
development.  I was experiencing an ICE in gcc that was fixed with a newer
build.  However, that build was done for F14 and inheritance was being
relied upon to get it into F15.  So I couldn't work on the F15 problems
until the build went to stable.

Which is why this shouldn't be the policy.  Rawhide should inherit the
latest completed build.  It's rawhide, after all.

I figure one reason is because sometimes updates-testing candidates get 
pulled (and we don't want rawhide to go backwards).

No, rawhide shouldn't go backwards.  What I suggested was that rawhide
should be the latest successful build, just as it would be if you *had*
built for rawhide.  Whether it's in updates-testing, updates, or nowhere
shouldn't matter.

If this isn't practical, then people will always have to build rawhide
separately (and we really need the nagbot mentioned elsewhere in this
thread).  But when there is no real need for a separate build, that's
just making extra work for the packager and for the buildfarm.

Short answer: Yes. It has. 

Longer answer: 

FESCo looked at trying to use voting data to give us an idea on 'hot'
bugs that we might be able to send more resources to fix. Sadly, voting
isn't at all good for this, as people have many votes (100 or 1000, I
forget which), so it's hard to tell if an issue affects 10 people or
100 by that. Many people didn't see the voting interface, so they
wouldn't have used it even if the problem was severe or affected a lot
of people. Some people were using the voting interface, even though no
maintainers ever noticed it (ie, thinking this could help the bug get
solved, but it's like the maintainer and voter were in seperate worlds
without any communication). 

So, we decided it would be less confusing to just disable it. 

We decided to look into using CC or comments to tell when a bug had a
lot of people affected or was 'very active'. Unfortunately, this also
is proving to be difficult to implement. See: 
https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-engineering-services/ticket/24
any help there would be appreciated.

No AVC's releated to flash-plugin. I disabled SELinux and it still

The ifcfg-rh plugin attempts to interpret ifcfg files just like
ifup/ifdown do.  These limitations and extensions should be documented
better.  But in the end, you want better documentation for the ifcfg
file format as defined by Red Hat/Fedora (SUSE's is slightly different).
Most of that has been documented since the beginning of time in places
like:

ifup-ipv6
ifup-wireless
man ifup
/usr/share/doc/initscripts-*/sysconfig.txt

But of course some of that is out of date, and NM implements WPA and
802.1x support that the system initscripts don't.  Better documentation
all around?

What things need to be easier about the cli bits that the network
scripts get right?  No doubt there are some, but would you mind filing
them as enhancement requests or bugs so we have some goals to hit?

In the end, ifup/ifdown should also still work for connections NM
controls, since ifup/ifdown just call NM for those connections in F13+.
ifup just says "activate this interface with this configuration" which
is the same thing NM does too, so that mapping is pretty 1:1.

If that broke, then it's a bug and I'll fix it.  NM still
checks /etc/dhclient-.conf first, and if that does not exist,
falls back to the new preferred location (used by anaconda and others)
of /etc/dhcp/dhclient-.conf.  If not, I need to fix it.

We shipped a Beta or a RC and then toggled on indexing in a post-release

Note that its better to switch to permissive mode if you want to test
something like this than to switch to disabled mode. Once you switch to
disabled, files don't get properly labelled and when you turn it back
on you'll need to do a full relabel.

When NM does support these, it will support these using the normal ifcfg
file key/value formats which are documented in the 'initscripts' package
as they always have been.  There's nothing special about ifcfg files
that NetworkManager really changes; we've gone to great effort to
interpret ifcfg files almost exactly like ifup/ifdown interpret them.

So, if you want to use a CLI to create system-wide network connections,
you use 'vi' or 'nano' or 'emacs' and write an ifcfg file like you
always did.  Nothing has changed here.

Then you ifup them.  Or you use nmcli to activate them.  The point is
that when creating or activating/deactivating connections that NM
supports your workflow should not really change.

Thanks for the tip.

I've got only two 8 GB's Linux partitions on laptop, so it won't take

Well yes, the command line option would override anything that could be
autodiscovered, likewise local explicit config would override
autodiscovery.  That's just good engineering, and how the rest of fedpkg
works.  The above route was speaking of a case where no information was
given on the command line and fedpkg had to try and figure it out for
itself.

Can non-SIG members add tasks? If we have a Java SIG, I'd like there
to be some agreement on how to handle orphaned packages - right
now, we've got about 30 java packages orphaned in F-14. Some of them
have comaintainers, some of them have maintainers in rawhide. I can
go and reassign the packages to the comaintainers or the rawhide
maintainers, but it would be nice if people would voluntarily pick
them up.

Remove any packages to do with gnash or swfdec, then do this:

I actually have a bug to file about that. The setting for NM_CONTROLLED
is still set even if NetworkManager isn't installed. It (or Ananconda)
should scrub the configs before installing the settings used during the

IMO, NM_CONTROLLED should *never* be written, and should only be

It looks like no-one tested it.

If the bug is in fact as described, one obvious way to improve this
would be for the maintainer to at least launch it before submitting it
as an update :)

(as the bug reporter notes, our maintainer reported this bug upstream so
he appears to be aware of it, yet he pushed the update anyway, which
just seems bizarre).

It was 100.

If you simply want to know the number of people affected, Bugzilla can
be configured to allow one vote per bug up to some large number of bugs.
The Mozilla Core product is set up this way.  See, for example, my
votes:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/votes.cgi?action=show_user&user_id=316870

But it's worth discussing whether that is the best model for Fedora.
Letting each user distribute 100 votes over a set of bugs is also
reasonable.  If a bug affects 100 people but they did not see fit to
give it many total votes, maybe it is not that important.

Please take care not to create an incentive for people to add "me too"
comments, since that will annoy everyone.  And a CC doesn't always
indicate a desire to have the bug fixed.  Google Code currently
conflates CC with voting, and there is a bug to separate the two
concepts (https://code.google.com/p/support/issues/detail?id=1108).

The best solution may be to reenable the Bugzilla voting feature but
configure and publicize it properly.

[389-devel] Please review: [Bug 629710] escape_string does not check '\'

Description: do_escape_string (core of escape_string) converts

man vs man-db less/lesspipe formatting in Rawhide

2010-09-02 Thread Richard W.M. Jones
I just upgraded 'man' on one of my rawhide machines, and this
has obsoleted the old man package and installed man-db.

This appears to have changed how 'less' processes man page (nroff) files.

Previously, doing:

  less foo.1

would automagically process the file through:

  (echo ".pl 11i"; cat foo.1') | /usr/bin/gtbl | /usr/bin/nroff -c -mandoc 
2>/dev/null) | less

with the result that it would display the file with bold, underline etc.

Now, doing the same command still formats the file, but in a visually
less satisfying way, with plain text and without bold, underline and
so on.

Was this an intentional change, because I don't think it looks as good ...

Rich.

And I'll note that in addition to WebM it can also do H264 (with the
usual gst codecs from the third party repo mentioned elsewhere in this
thread installed) which makes a huge difference as a huge portion of
youtube videos hasn't been converted to WebM yet (not sure how many
exactly -- are there any stats available?).

And in regard to the original question. Have you tried swfdec-mozilla?
It used to work just fine on youtube for me (but I've switched to flash
from adobe long ago enough for things to have changed...).
