For years I've used mailman (first mailman2, now mailman3) on Fedora to administer mailing lists. In mailman3, you also need postorius to provide a web interface to users and hyperkitty to provide mail archive support. On Fedora 35, mailman2 isn't available anymore, so that's when I switched to mailman3. The original Fedora 35 did not have postorius, but that became available later. Hyperkitty on the other hand is not available on fedora 35. I use an rpm that I built myself. On Fedora 36, mailman3 can be installed, but both postorius and hyperkitty (there it is in the repository) cannot. They both depend on a too old version of django. On Fedora 37 (I know, not released yet, so any complaints should go to the testing list) none of the packages can be installed since they all depend on python 3.10 and F37 will come with 3.11. The packages are actually the unmodified F36 packages. Do people use mailman3 on Fedora? If so, how? Sadly those packages are difficult to keep working and they have fallen behind. :( I'm sure the maintainers would welcome help though if you can work on them or help test fixes. Should I invest time in getting it to work in a python virtual environment? And how would that work with SELinux? Well, up to you, but it would be nice to contibute to the packages and get them working again. This very mailing list (users@lists.fedoraproject.org) is managed with mailman3, but does the system on which it runs run Fedora? Nope, it's running on a RHEL7 vm. ;( We would very much like to move it to a newer version however, and if the Fedora version became available/working again we could look at that. kevin I bit the bullet and took the challenge. I have created RPMs for mailman3, hyperkitty, and postorius and got them to work on Fedora 36. (Fedora 37 is a bridge too far at the moment because it uses Python 3.11. This information is of course irrelevant for this list at this time ;-) ). To get it to work, I had to update a lot of other RPMs as well. This is the complete list: hyperkitty-1.3.5.9-1.fc36.noarch.rpm hyperkitty-doc-1.3.5.9-1.fc36.noarch.rpm mailman3-3.3.5-0.1.fc36.noarch.rpm postorius-1.3.6.9-1.fc36.noarch.rpm python-django-haystack-docs-3.2.1-0.fc36.noarch.rpm python-rjsmin-docs-1.2.0-0.fc36.x86_64.rpm python3-django-compressor-4.1-0.fc36.noarch.rpm python3-django-haystack-3.2.1-0.fc36.noarch.rpm python3-django-mailman3-1.3.7.9-1.fc36.noarch.rpm python3-flufl-bounce-4.0-0.fc36.noarch.rpm python3-flufl-i18n-3.2-0.fc36.noarch.rpm python3-flufl-lock-5.1-0.1.fc36.noarch.rpm python3-mailman-hyperkitty-1.2.1-0.1.fc36.noarch.rpm python3-mailmanclient-3.3.3-2.fc36.noarch.rpm python3-mailmanclient-3.3.3-4.fc36.noarch.rpm python3-mistune-2.0.4-0.fc36.noarch.rpm python3-rcssmin-1.1.0-0.fc36.x86_64.rpm python3-rjsmin-1.2.0-0.fc36.x86_64.rpm All of these are based on the Fedora 36 source RPMs, but with updated sources and the occasional change in the patches used. The hyperkitty and postorius versions are not based on official releases but just the latest sources. I think perhaps the most problematic change is the update to the python3-mistune package. F36 comes with 0.8.4 but mailman requires 2.0, and that's an incompatible rewrite if I understand correctly.

Re: Request for testing: fail2ban 1.0.1 update
I saw a similar problem in my f36 system. 100% CPU usage for the fail2ban-server process after upgrading to 1.0.1-1. I also tried removing the sqlite database with no impact. fail2ban-server was so busy it would not receive connections from fail2ban-client. I enabled DEBUG logging, but that just showed that the process was so busy that everything was moving slower (e.g. jails that normally start immediately when the server starts did not start for minutes or longer). I downgraded to 0.11.2-11 and all is good again. Given the success of moving forward again reported here, I'll try the upgrade again this afternoon. I'm all ears for advice on how to determine what the server is doing. I didn't see any child processes and didn't immediately see any hints from open files that the process had.

Re: Tool to live duplicate a small area of the screen on a separate window
It might be overkill for this but obs-studio will do it. You have to create/add a screen grab and pick a window or do screen capture and once picked and working in the preview window right click on the preview and click windowed preview and size and place it.

If firefox is coming from the fedora package, and you just updated, then there should be no updates to firefox, as it will be fully up to date. If there is some kind of churn, it must be something else. It is good practice to shut down firefox before updating, and restart it after the updates are done. That way, if a library it depends on has changed, it will get the new version. Weird things can happen if you run a program that was started with an older version of a library, if you run it with a newer version, and it has changed. Not always crashes. Gnome has mandated shutdown after update (reboot) to be sure that this problem doesn't occur. I just update from a console with some programs closed, and haven't had any issues, but they have a valid point. Try creating a new user, and running a generic firefox after an update.

The latter is what allowed it reban past events. Everything went fine as I reenabled my sshd and all the various apache jails. Finally, I did my dovecot jail. Bang! As soon as I did the fail2ban restart on it the fail2ban server process went to 100%. Right now I assume something is wrong with the dovecot jail. I then stopped fail2ban. I disabled just the dovecot jail and restarted fail2ban. It seems to be working as expected. I'll let it run overnight and check in in the morning. Then I'll see if I can figure it out. At first glance the latest fail2ban dovecot.conf has a new macro called _auth_worker_info. There may be more but I'll check that more thoroughly tomorrow.

How do I build a custom kernel with modules signed.
I am building a kernel from the fedora `kernel.spec` file and SRPM. It works as good as the official kernel, but nothing in it is signed. I know that I can sign the kernel RPM package, but what about the kernel itself (for secure boot). The Fedora kernel is signed on a separate system, but I can not find any docs for it. I know that I cant use Fedora's keys, but what about signing it with my keys, then adding those keys to the shim. I am trying to make it so that a user starting on a fresh install can use the kernel by adding the public keys to the shim, then installing the kernel RPM. I also want the modules to be signed with my key (I don't care if it is the same key that used for the rest of the kernel). I do not mean signing the RPM packages, but the binaries that are installed from the RPM package. I also do not want to have to signed the installed binaries with a per install key locally. tl;dr: I want to make kernel RPM package that is exactly the same as the Fedora package, but I compile it, and it uses my signing keys. I also want to be able to distribute this in the same way as the Fedora package, but with the user adding the key to the shim. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
