Upstream tip wanted: CI service for Big Endian acrhes
by Miro Hrončok
Recently I've reported some Big Endian related test failures to an
upstream project [0].
I was asked by an upstream project maintainer, whether I know some free
Continuous Integration services where they can easily run their
testsuite on Big Endian.
Any tips?
* Upstream uses Travis CI to test on x86_64 Linux (Ubuntu)
* Upstream uses AppVeyor to test on Microsoft Windows
* It's a pure Python project, noarch, but some changes need to be done
when loading/saving binary data (LE) with NumPy on BE system.
What I've considered:
* COPR (but there is no big endian arch)
* (Ab)using Koji (I guess that would be considered a bad practice?)
* using QUEMU on Travis CI [1]
Any better tips? Thanks

Server Side Public License (SSPL) v1
by Tom Callaway
After review, Fedora has determined that the Server Side Public License
v1 (SSPL) is not a Free Software License.
It is the belief of Fedora that the SSPL is intentionally crafted to be
aggressively discriminatory towards a specific class of users.
Additionally, it seems clear that the intent of the license author is to
cause Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt towards commercial users of software
under that license. To consider the SSPL to be "Free" or "Open Source"
causes that shadow to be cast across all other licenses in the FOSS
ecosystem, even though none of them carry that risk.
It is also worth nothing that while there is a draft for a "v2" of the SSPL:
A) It is not final.
B) It is not in use anywhere at this time (as far as we know).
C) The intent of the v2 draft text is not changed from the v1 license
currently in use.
We have updated our "Bad License" list to include SSPLv1. No software
under that license may be included in Fedora (including EPEL and COPRs).
Thanks,
Tom Callaway

Sorry---I'm not current with the wdune scenario. I assumed you meant
that you'd review it unofficially as part of the work to get sponsored
to the packagers group:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_get_sponsored_into_the_packager_gro...
I'm not a sponsor yet so I cannot sponsor you to the group myself, but
once you've done a few reviews, a sponsor will be happy to take a look
at them and guide you through the sponsorship process.
If you've submitted a review ticket for wdune already, I will be happy
to review it and provide comments.

Headsup: dbus 1.12.10-1.fc29 is missing systemd dbus.service file,
breaking almost everything
by Hans de Goede
Hi All,
Just a quick headsup for users following Fedora 29, the
dbus 1.12.10-1.fc29 build is missing the systemd dbus.service
file, breaking almost everything.
Instead it contains a dbus-daemon.service file, but the
dbus.socket file expects a matching dbus.service, not
dbus-daemon.service.
So either hold of on applying updates until this is fixed
or exclude dbus.
Regards,
Hans

Default editor for LXQt spin
by Raphael Groner
Hi,
writing to general devel list intentionally. No idea if all members of lxqt-sig list can read here, too and especially @zsun.
Is there any sense why @lxqt-sig is member of packaging for featherpad? LXQt SIG decided to have enki in the spin as the default editor. Featherpad is not part of LXQt upstream.
@lupinix Could you remove lxqt-sig from the members in pagure?

python-pep8 is orphaned
by iliana weller
Hello,
I've orphaned python-pep8. pep8 was renamed to pycodestyle in 2016; it
received its last release in 2017. It should be removed from Fedora in a
future release.
I unfortunately don't have time to proceed with the full retirement
process myself. If somebody would like to pick it up:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Orphaned_package_that_need_new_maintainers...
$ dnf repoquery --whatrequires python2-pep8
python2-autopep8-0:1.2.4-9.fc29.noarch
python2-pytest-pep8-0:1.0.6-15.fc29.noarch
python2-spyder-0:3.3.1-3.fc29.noarch
$ dnf repoquery --whatrequires python3-pep8
python3-autopep8-0:1.2.4-9.fc29.noarch
python3-hacking-0:1.1.0-3.fc29.noarch
python3-pytest-pep8-0:1.0.6-15.fc29.noarch
python3-spyder-0:3.3.1-3.fc29.noarch
