Please don't force packagers to have to bug upstream about what changed. Unless another set of Fedora people
want to dig for that information to update the packager. Some of us don't have the time to nag upstream about what they changed.
Be happy you GET a package, don't be greedy :)

Proposal Enhancements for the Fedora Packaging Guidelines
by Jochen Schmitt
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hello,
because I'm reviewing some python relating packages I have got a look
on the Python Packaging guidelines.
I have to find out, that this guidelines doesn't explaints, that you
have to add a BuildRequires: python-devel
for packages which are written in the C programming language.
I want to suppose the extenting of the packaging guildelines for a
explaination about when you have to
add a BuidRequires: python-devel. This may be helpful for newcommers
which plan to going to package
or review python relating packages.
Best Regards:
Jochen Schmitt

The latter, being packaged and included in fedora, is pretty much a
prerequisite for consideration, so... the sooner the better.

Problems with ssh-add
by Horst H. von Brand
Rawhide x86_64 Gnome
For something like a week now each time I run ssh-add it works fine, but
then trying to use the ssh key ssh complains
$ ssh quelen.inf.utfsm.cl
Error reading response length from authentication socket.
vonbrand(a)quelen.inf.utfsm.cl's password:
After that, ssh just asks for the password, and:
$ ssh-add
Could not open a connection to your authentication agent.
I got lost in this whole business of who exactly is the autentication agent
now, so I don't know who to BZ against.

xorg.conf - what to do for an input device
by Paulo Cavalcanti
Hi,
I was looking at xorg.conf on Fedora 10, and
my question is: what is the correct approach,
when an input device does not work as it was supposed to?
In my case, I have an old tablet (Genius) that was detected,
but its surface area is not mapped correctly onto the screen.
Moving the stylus less than half an inch, makes the cursor cross
the entire screen.
In the past, I used an alternative driver, which was configured
in xorg.conf. Now, this same driver has an undefined external
reference "xf86errno" in F10.
Even if I fix the driver, since the input devices are detected
automatically,
the only way (I see) of using the alternative driver is including
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "AutoAddDevices" "false"
EndSection
in xorg.conf. But this will force me to specify all other
input drivers one by one, in xorg.conf, that is, it is an
"all or nothing" approach. Is that correct?
The other option is trying to make the detected driver
use the correct mapping, by suppling some parameters.
According to the instructions available here
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/EvdevInputDriver
I would have to look at this file:
/usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-tabletPCs.fdi
However, I did not see anything that I could change
to fix my problem.
Any suggestion?
Thanks.

how to show upstream changes to the user
by Dan Horák
Both sides in the "Lack if update information" thread are true. The
presented information about changes is almost useless for the user, but
rewriting the upstream changelogs into bodhi is a superfluous burden for
the maintainers. There is, in my opinion, a technical solution for this
issue that can make both sides happy.
And it is new "ChangeLog" tag in RPM. It should be an URL pointing to
upstream changelog and GUI package management tools can open a browser
window to show the content, like they do for the home page.
pros:
- low overhead for maintainer
- can provide complete info to the user even when he/she skips some
updates
- allows changelogs per sub-package
cons:
- slightly larger metadata
