add dbus to base comps group

2010-01-21 Thread Colin Walters
Hi, We'd like to remove the dependency of the dbus-libs package on dbus (which will run even if the app doesn't need the daemon). As part of this though we need to ensure the bus is available if you've done a default workstation (desktop needs it) or server (want admin tools etc. to use) install.

Good day all, As a side effect of looking into the xqilla FTBFS bug, the new xqilla maintainer and I found that xerces-c is terribly out of date. We're shipping xerces-c-2.8 and Apache has been shipping xerces-c-3.x since 2008. The last 2.x release was in 2007. The xqilla maintainer is also goin

[RFC PATCH] use sulogin in single-user mode

2010-01-21 Thread Bill Nottingham
We have an existing bug where if you're in single-user mode, and SELinux is active, various commands don't print to the console. The root of this is the single-user shell isn't running in the right SELinux context, as there's nothing to distinguish this from the 'normal' shells run during bootup.
