April 2006 - devel - Fedora Mailing-Lists

by MJang

Folks, I see Tripwire has been removed from FC5 extras, but per http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/FC5Status , it's probably going to get a new maintainer soon. Will it be available in FC5 Extras after it gets the new maintainer, or will it go someplace else like Extras-Development? I've tried posting this to the Extras list, with no response. That list seems dedicated to bug discussions, so I'm not surprised that my question there was ignored. Thanks, Mike

updating stage2.img

by Aggarwal, VikasX

Hi, I am trying to insert a utility into stage2.img for FC5-test3, this utility will be run by slightly modified anaconda installer (version 10.12.14). So far I could not get my utility inside stage2.img. 1) I tried it doing manually but "buildinstall' will replace it. 2) If I try to update stage2.img manually after running buildinstalll, then NFS boot from boot.iso complains that install-tree does'nt match. Timestamp changed ? 3) Adding my utility in upd-instroot script should make it available in stage2.img, I tried but add to my frustration its not there when I boot from install disk1. Please provide me with the procedure for building the custom distro for fc5, I need to insert a tool into stage2.img and installer will run that utility. Appreciate your help in this Thanks -vikas aggarwal

how do I integrate patches and get updated rpms to users

by Michael Christie

Hi, sorry of this is the wrong list. Maybe it should go to the maintiner list but I am not yet on that. I packaged the iscsi-initiator-utils rpm and have some fixes I need to integrate. I think I know how to update cvs and the spec file and that stuff from this doc http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/developers-guide/ But how does the update get propagated to the user so when they do a yum command they get the newest version? Do I have to send mail to someone or another list or does someone watch the cvs commits or is there some magic in the build system? And one other question about updating packages. Should I assume someone will be running the current kernel? If a new kernel is released and it lets say a sysfs file is removed or has some new behavior or the netlink interface has changed, should I build in the userspace application (in this case iscsid and iscsiadm) the ability to support all Fedora kernels or just the current one? Thanks

by Prarit Bhargava

Hello, A set of CD ISOs and a DVD ISO based on the March 20, 2006 image of the ia64 Fedora development branch (also known as rawhide) are available from http://oss.sgi.com/projects/fedora The CD set consists of FC5-ia64-disc1.iso FC5-ia64-disc2.iso FC5-ia64-disc3.iso FC5-ia64-disc4.iso FC5-ia64-disc5.iso, and the DVD iso is FC5-ia64-DVD.iso These ISOs are not officially supported by the Fedora Project, however, a tracking bugzilla has been opened for the fedora-ia64 project here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=fedora-ia64 In order to track issues found with the ia64 Fedora development branch or issues with the ISOS, please enter "fedora-ia64" or 163350 in the "blocks" field of new bugzillas. You can contribute by signing up on the fedora-ia64 mailing list here: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-ia64-list Enjoy, Prarit.

pilot-link.org: Anonymous CVS Removed indefinitely

by Gilboa Davara

I'm just posting this, so -please- don't shoot the messenger: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Submitted by desrod on Mon, 03/27/2006 - 01:50. Since the Fedora Linux distribution (always problems with Fedora, sigh) has decided to ignore the FAT GLARING WARNING about NOT packaging up pilot-link 0.12.x in their releases, I’ve taken anonymous CVS down indefinitely, and hourly snapshots will also be removed. Those who wish to use the code, will have to wait until official releases are made. Sorry, but this has happened way too often with Fedora (and previously with the Red Hat packagers) to ignore time and time again. Their ignorance has increased our maintenance headaches, and I’m frankly tired of dealing with the support issues. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem is: pilot-link AND gnome-pilot are semi-broken on FC4 and completely broken on FC5. Now that CVS is shut, until pilot-link 0.12 is released (and there's not tables for that) there's little chance that FC5 will be fixed. My question is: Will it be possible to roll-back all patches and go back to 0.11? Please? Pretty please? Gilboa

Re: '-Wunused-param' in kernel compiles?

by Bojan Smojver

Have you tried any of these: http://ftp.cvut.cz/vmware/ For instance: http://ftp.cvut.cz/vmware/vmware-any-any-update101.tar.gz PS. I haven't tried VMware on current Rawhide yet, so the kernel API may have been changed again to the point where the above patches don't help. -- Bojan

GCC ADA compiler driver failure for recent Fedora Core kernels

by Joachim Frieben

I have a problem with both (current, i.e. fully updated updated) FC5 *and* FC6/rawhide: I install the system from scratch. All volumes get formatted, no additional or customized dot files, one stock test user account. My default shell is "csh" but "bash" makes no difference. My local ".rpmmacros" file reads: %_usrsrc /home/test/build %_tmppath /home/test/build/var/tmp and the corresponding directory tree has been created in test's home directory in order to avoid building the package as "root". Result after installing FC5 w/o any updates: "checking for gnatbind... gnatbind checking whether compiler driver understands Ada... yes" After fully updating the system as of 04/04/06 or [updating to/installing] FC6/rawhide from scratch and booting the system again, the Ada driver stops working (!): "checking for gnatbind... gnatbind checking whether compiler driver understands Ada... no" In the first case, the system boots "kernel-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5", in the second case "kernel-2.6.16-1.2080_FC5" or FC6 rawhide kernel respectively. After rebooting the [updated/rawhide] system again and booting "kernel-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5", case #1 occurs, thus no error message. Rebooting the system several times confirms that for the original FC5 kernel, the configure script passes successfully when checking Ada support, whereas for update kernel and current FC6/rawhide kernels, the script fails. I had posted a bug report at: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=187687 It had been closed as "WORKSFORME" but I had reopened it after finding out that the issue actually depends on the kernel version (!) as described above. Any similar observations? Any clues?
