CVS outage
by Mike McGrath
The migration today went fairly well, few bumps but all infrastructure
should be back up now except for the CVS box. He's hurt, hurt bad.
The issue is with booting and because many things at the colo are
still in a transition right now we cannot access PDU's to restart it.
We will be addressing this issue first thing tomorrow morning (US
morning) when the techs are back in the data center.
Outages are never fun and we apologize for any inconvenience this has
caused but once everything is back up we will be in a better spot for
future expandability of the Fedora Project's infrastructure.

What about:
- Installed by default, but
- In a separate Anaconda/Pirut group so it can be easily de-selected
during installation?
(It would be oh-so-nice to have an "install these packages if the
hardware is present" capability to set an intelligent default for this
kind of thing).

yum seg fault

When running "yum update" for todays rawhide update, yum stopped with a

Anyone else see this? What can be done to complete the update?

pilot-link v0.12.0 has been released
by Dax Kelson
After a long wait, finally, pilot-link v0.12.0 has been released.
See:
http://www.pilot-link.org/pipermail/pilot-link-announce/2006-August/00001...
FC5 shipped with a pre-release version of pilot-link v0.12.0 that was
later reverted in an errata update to pilot-link v0.11.8.
It would be nice if FC6 could ship with v0.12.0. It solves major
problems (race conditions most notably) with it's libusb support, plus
it is much faster.
Back in March I benchmarked backing up 15,668KB of data from my Treo650
with v0.11 using the visor kernel module method and pre-release v0.12
with libusb.
The results were:
Using the visor method:
$ pilot-xfer -p /dev/ttyUSB1 -b /tmp/Treo650-backup-visor
Results: 415 seconds or 37.75KB/sec
Using the libusb method:
$ pilot-xfer -p usb: -b /tmp/Treo650-backup-libusb
Results: 201 seconds or 77.95KB/sec

bluetooth in default desktop install?
by Alexander Larsson
I see that gnome-bluetooth is now an optional package in the gnome
installer group, and things like nautilus-sendto-bluetooth isn't
included at all right now.
I think a lot of machines (laptops) these days ship with Bluetooth
support though, and a lot of people have mobile phones with Bluetooth
support. Maybe we should install packages like this by default so that
you can send a file to your phone in an out of the box FC6 install.
Opinions?

Evolution still crashes
by Kjartan Maraas
Hi.
I'm still seeing the same crashes in evolution that were discussed on
the list a couple of weeks ago before the glibc update was supposed to
fix them. I normally get them while fetching mail or updating the folder
summaries and the backtrace is exactly the same as I saw before updating
glibc to -23 and later to -25. Are we certain that the glibc fixes were
complete and that the bug is in evolution or underlying libraries?
I've filed a bug upstream with more information:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=352724
Cheers
