%{valgrind_arches}
by Florian Weimer
I had occasion to look at the valgrind use in spec files because we
might have an architecture regression downstream. I noticed that a lot
of packages have hard-coded lists of architectures on which valgrind is
available. Starting with Fedora 24, this lists is also available in the
%{valgrind_arches} macro provided by redhat-rpm-config.
%{valgrind_arches} is always safe to use if you do not run valgrind
during build, but only need valgrind-devel because it accurately
reflects the availability of these packages.
If you run valgrind during build (BuildRequires: valgrind), you may
encounter scenarios where it is supported only on a subset of
architectures for your tests due to valgrind limitations. Here is what
we use in glibc to set the valgrind support status:
# Default: Always run valgrind tests if there is architecture support.
%ifarch %{valgrind_arches}
%bcond_without valgrind
%else
%bcond_with valgrind
%endif
# Restrict %%{valgrind_arches} further in case there are problems with
# the smoke test.
%if %{with valgrind}
%ifarch ppc64 ppc64p7
# The valgrind smoke test does not work on ppc64, ppc64p7 (bug 1273103).
%undefine with_valgrind
%endif
%endif
(There are probably ways to express this in a less clumsy fashion.)
The idea is to never go beyond the set of architectures listed in
%{valgrind_arches}.
Thanks,
Florian

HEADS UP: /usr/bin/cython(ize) is now in python3-Cython
by Miro Hrončok
Cython-0.28.4-3.fc29 has landed in rawhide.
It moves all stuff in /usr/bin to pytyon3 package only, because the
functionality is the same on whatever Python version.
This might break your package if you BR Cython.
Here are some tips that should be Fedora/EPEL version agnostic:
If you need to use /usr/bin/cython (or /usr/bin/cythonize) during build,
BR /usr/bin/cython (or /usr/bin/cythonize).
If you need to use Cython from Python (from cython import...), BR
pytnonX-Cython or pythonXdist(cython) (for X={2,3} as needed).
If you would like to use Cython from the command line and explicitly use
a Python version (e.g. not to drag an unnecessary dependency on the
other Python version), you can use %{__pythonX} -m cython or pythonX -m
cython.
I'll give it some time to settle and later I will scratch build all
packages that BR Cython and see if we broke them, will apply fixes.
Packages that use Cython at build time:

[heads up] SELinux support for boltd service
by Lukas Vrabec
Hi,
I saw several bugs where boltd daemon runs as unconfined_service_t. I
have prepared new SELinux module for it.
I'll push it to Fedora Rawhide and also Fedora 28 soon. This module will
be in permissive mode, which means policy for boltd won't be enforced by
kernel, just AVCs will be logged even if the whole system will be in
Enforcing state.
If you'll find some AVCs related to boltd, please use this bugzilla[1]
to report them.
[1] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1607974.
Thanks,
Lukas.

enabling KCM in the Fedora kernels
by Kaleb S. KEITHLEY
Hi,
How would one go about requesting this be enabled by default?
Upstream NFS-Ganesha devs have been playing with it a bit and got a
modest performance boost.
It's conceivable that GlusterFS could utilize it too.
Thanks,

Updates to mathematical software
by Jerry James
Hello everyone. Months ago, I started working on updates to a couple of
our mathematical packages. But they, in turn, required other packages to
be updated, and those updates required other packages to be updated, and
the whole thing kind of snowballed. I believe that I have finally reached
a point of closure, where I can update the whole pile and have everything
still work afterwards.
I propose to do the following updates and builds in Rawhide in about a
week. If maintainers of any of these packages object, please let me know
the nature of your objection.
The only explicit soname bump in these updates is libntl.so.35 to
libntl.so.36. However, there are a few other libraries that changed ABI
without a corresponding soname bump (typically with an soname of
libfoo.so.0, sigh), so I will rebuild all consumers.
Changes:
- arb: update from 2.11.1 to 2.13.0
- brial: update from 0.8.5 to 1.2.3. Build for both python 2 and 3.
Add a %check script.
- cbmc: rebuild for glpk 4.65
- coin-or-lemon: rebuild for glpk 4.65
- eclib: update from 20170815 to 20171002
- fflas-ffpack: update from 2.2.2 to 2.3.2. Drop all patches.
- flint: rebuild for ntl 11.0.0. Attempt to work around bz 1555151 on
arm.
- gap-pkg-float: rebuild for libfplll 5.2.1 and mpfi 1.5.3
- gfan: build libgfan as a shared library and distribute it in a new
subpackage, which obsoletes the erroneous gfanlib subpackage of Singular.
- giac: rebuild for libfplll 5.2.1 and mpfi 1.5.3
- givaro: update from 4.0.2 to 4.0.4
- glpk: update from 4.61 to 4.65. Add a patch slated for 4.66, needed
by sagemath. Build with ODBC and MariaDB support.
- latte-integrale: rebuild for ntl 11.0.0 and glpk 4.65
- libfplll: update from 5.1.0 to 5.2.1. Drop the rounding patch, fixed
upstream.
- libgap: require the GAP default packages (silences startup warnings
about missing packages).
- linbox: update from 1.4.2 to 1.5.2. Drop upstreamed fplll patch. Add
gcc8 patch as recommended by upstream to fix a C++ issue.
- Macaulay2: update from 1.9.2 to 1.11. Drop upstreamed verbose_build,
givaro, pari, and endian patches.
- mpfi: update from 1.5.1 to 1.5.3. Drop the aarch64 patch, fixed
upstream.
- normaliz: update from 3.4.0 to 3.5.4. Drop all patches.
- ntl: update from 10.5.0 to 11.0.0
- octave: rebuild for glpk 4.65
- openms: rebuild for glpk 4.65
- pari: backport ellratpoints and hyperellratpoints from pari 2.10
alpha, needed by sagemath. The alternative is to update pari to an alpha
version, which makes me very uncomfortable.
- polymake: update from 3.1 to 3.2r3. Drop upstreamed gcc7 patch.
- ppl: rebuild for glpk 4.65
- pynac: update from 0.7.8 to 0.7.16. Drop arch conditionals for giac,
which is now available on all supported arches.
- python-cvxopt: update from 1.1.9 to 1.2.0
- python-cypari2: update from 1.1.3 to 1.1.4. Drop upstreamed offbyone
patch.
- python-cysignals: update from 1.6.4 to 1.7.1
- python-flask-autoindex: update from 0.4.1 to 0.6. Drop upstreamed
tests patch. Build for both python 2 and 3. Build and package the
documentation.
- python-flask-silk: update from 0.1.2 to 0.2. Do not bundle
flask-sphinx-themes. Build for both python 2 and 3. Build and package the
documentation. Add a %check script.
- python-fpylll: update from 0.2.4dev to 0.4.0dev for libfplll 5.2.1.
- python-gmpy2: update from 2.0.8 to 2.1.0a2. The alpha version has
some functions required by the latest sagemath. Since the only consumers
of this package currently in Fedora are sagemath and sympy, which is
consumed by sagemath, I figure that if the sagemath team is going to
require an alpha version, they are only hurting themselves if something
goes wrong.
- sagemath: update from 8.0 to 8.2. Numerous changes were necessary to
make this work.
- shogun: rebuild for glpk 4.65. Add two patches to fix FTBFS. The
sources use some deprecated json-c macros, which are no longer defined by
default; the first patch includes the relevant header. The second patch
works around a bug in pybtex, which has already been reported to upstream
pybtex and fixed in git. If a new pybtex release is made soon, I will
build it and drop this patch.
- Singular: drop the mistakenly exposed gfanlib package; build with
libgfan instead. Rebuild for ntl 11.0.0 and polymake 3.2r2. Drop the
sequence-point patch, which patches the libgfan sources.
NOTE ON MPFR: There is an update to mpfr 4 in the works:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/mpfr-4.0.0. The above updates help
that effort in the following ways:
- The mpfi update brings in a version that is compatible with both mpfr
3 and 4, so when the time comes, simply rebuilding against mpfr 4 will work.
- The sagemath update brings in a version that wants mpfr 4. For now, I
will patch it to use the old mpfr 3 interface. Once we have mpfr 4
available, all we have to do is remove that patch and rebuild.
Let me know of any concerns you might have about this pile of updates. As
usual with this particular set of packages, some builds take many hours, so
the rebuilds will probably span multiple days. Expect broken deps reports
out of Rawhide while in the middle. They will disappear once the entire
stack has been built.
Regards,
