fedora-packager
by Dennis Gilmore
Hi All,
I created a new hosted project at
https://hosted.fedoraproject.org/projects/fedora-packager/ with one simple
goal. make it easy for people to setup a fedora package maintainer
environment. Right now all that is currently in place is
fedora-packager-setup.sh used to setup your certs and configs for koji and
plague and a new script fedora-cvs that will checkout from cvs modules for
you using your FAS account.
Why am i telling you this? well for one fedora-packager-setup.sh is no longer
in the koji package its in fedora-packager and two I want your help.
Do you have a script that you find really useful to help you maintain your
packages? want to share them? then please help make fedora-packager better.
We also now have a new comps group fedora-packager. so there is two easy
ways to get your development environment setup on a new box "yum
groupinstall fedora-packager" and "yum install fedora-packager" both will
do the same thing. then run fedora-packager-setup.sh and your on your way.

Heads up: openldap and openssl changed in devel
by Tomas Mraz
There are new versions of OpenLDAP (2.4.6) and OpenSSL (0.9.8g) with
different soname in rawhide. Please rebuild your packages, which depend
on openldap and openssl.

Beecrypt retired
by Tomas Mraz
Nobody stepped up to maintain this crypto library which is no longer
used by rpm or anything else in Fedora. So the next logical step is to
retire this package from rawhide (dist-f9).
I will do that tomorrow.

ntfsprogs change in devel
by Tom Callaway
I bumped ntfsprogs in devel to 2.0.0, this comes with a corresponding
soname bump. I didn't think that this affected any other packages, but
apparently, at least one (testdisk) links to libntfs.
So, this is your heads-up. :)
