Ah!  With custom partitioning,
anaconda needs to be explicitly told
the EFI partition is the EFI partition.

Anaconda needs to have all the partitions you are going to install to 
mounted and to be told what the partition format is, hence you would 
need to tell anaconda to mount the efi partition as /boot/efi and its 
format is efi. Having done that don't specify to format that partition 
as with Windows installed, Windows is potentially also using that 
partition as its efi partition.

[OT] plasma6

2024-04-03 Thread Mike Wright

Hey all,

If anybody is curious about KDE's new Plasma6 on Wayland you can install 
Fedora-KDE-Live from rawhide to get a sneak-peak at Fedora 41.  Spoiler 
alert: it's nice.

with Wayland not allowing 4K resolution on a 4K monitor being rectified before 
they do so, or has it been rectified already?

I have a Dell 4k monitor that works in 4k under kde plasma wayland on f39 and 
f40.

What gpu do you have? What drivers are you using?
If your monitor has bad EDID then linux will have provlems.
You may see errors in dmesg about this.
Thanks Barry. I just tried Wayland on KDE plasma and it does set the 
resolution to 4K, but it has its scaling of the taskbar horribly wrong. 
Having scaled the display to 150% so that things can be read, in the 
system tray, before the twistie to show hidden icons, I have 6 icons 
displayed (wifi, audio, bluetooth etc) which X11 shows as a single row 
of 6 and the taskbar sized accordingly. In Wayland those 6 system tray 
icons are displayed as 2 rows of 3, with the taskbar scaled to double 
the height of what it is under X11, this then scales all the throbber 
and pinned application icons to double size as well as the system date 
and time and the desktop peek icons.


regards,
Steve

F40: mock fails with (some) explicit paths in BuildRequires:

2024-04-03 Thread Sam Varshavchik
I cannot mock-rebuild packages that have /some/ BuildRequires: with explicit  
file dependencies, for F40. I have no idea why just /some/ of them are  
rejected.


I'm using mock to rebuild SRPMS in an F40 chroot, and it fails thusly:

Updating and loading repositories:
updates100% | 286.7 KiB/s |  23.8 KiB |  00m00s
fedora 100% | 229.3 KiB/s |  19.7 KiB |  00m00s
Repositories loaded.
Failed to resolve the transaction:
No match for argument: /usr/include/ltdl.h
No match for argument: /usr/lib/rpm/macros.d/macros.systemd

These are absolute file paths referenced by BuildRequires:.

I replaced the problematic BuildRequires: with package names, libtool-ltdl- 
devel and systemd-rpm-macros. This allowed the build to proceed.


But here's a head-scratcher. Here's (a part of) my diff:

--- a/courier-authlib/courier-authlib.spec.in
+++ b/courier-authlib/courier-authlib.spec.in
@@ -54,7 +54,7 @@ BuildRequires:redhat-rpm-config
BuildRequires:  courier-unicode-devel
BuildRequires:  %{__make}
BuildRequires:  shadow-utils
-BuildRequires:  %{_includedir}/ltdl.h
+BuildRequires:  libtool-ltdl-devel

That %{__make} is still there. Somewhat unneeded, but it's there. And this  
built fine.


So, can anyone tell me why %{_includedir}/ltdl.h, which is  
/usr/include/ltdl.h, got rejected by mock+dnf5, but %{__make}, which is  
/usr/bin/make was just peachy?

It is already part of fedora 40.
What is it that the rawhide builds providing that is not in f40?
