cddlib-094f-10.el5 (FEDORA-EPEL-2010-2448)
A library for generating all vertices in convex polyhedrons
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
The C-library cddlib is a C implementation of the Double Description Method of
Motzkin et al. for generating all vertices (i.e. extreme points) and extreme
rays of a general convex polyhedron in R^d given by a system of linear
inequalities: P = { x=(x1, ..., xd)^T : b - A x >= 0 } where A is a
given m x d real matrix, b is a given m-vector and 0 is the m-vector of all
zeros. The program can be used for the reverse operation (i.e. convex hull
computation). This means that one can move back and forth between an inequality
representation and a generator (i.e. vertex and ray) representation of a
polyhedron with cdd. Also, cdd can solve a linear programming problem, i.e. a
problem of maximizing and minimizing a linear function over P.

clipsmm-0.1.0-3.el5 (FEDORA-EPEL-2010-2401)
C++ interface to the CLIPS expert system C library
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
The clipsmm library provides a C++ interface to the CLIPS C library. CLIPS (C
Language Integrated Production System) is an expert system development tool
which provides a complete environment for the construction of rule and/or
object based expert systems. Created in 1985 by NASA at the Johnson Space
Center, CLIPS is now widely used throughout the government, industry, and
academia.

dbus-cxx-0.7.0-1.el5 (FEDORA-EPEL-2010-2453)
C++ bindings for the DBus library
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
dbus-cxx is a C++ wrapper for the dbus library http://dbus-cxx.sourceforge.net
===== 0.7.0 ===== This release primarily features code cleanup, but in doing
so there were several minor feature additions, added documentation, bug fixes
and minor API changes. == New Documentation and Tutorial == A quickstart
guide has been added to the documentation. This will take you through a simple
client/server example. The quickstart tutorial can be found in the
documentation or on the dbus-cxx website here: http://dbus-
cxx.sourceforge.net/quick_start.html Also, documentation has been added for
many of the m4 generated templates. == Cleanup == A significant portion of
the cleanup related to the headers. As the library grew and evolved the headers
became messy, from old includes that are no longer needed to templates that had
very touchy include orders. These have been significantly cleaned up and
several key template headers have been split into two parts with the first part
declarations and the second part definitions and specializations. The
utility.h header had also grown to include many things beyond simple utility
functions. The dbus typing functions have been split out into types.h and the
introspect() function has been properly incorporated into the DBus::Connection
class. The functions related to signatures in utility.h have been moved into
the header signature.h along where DBus::Signature is. == New API == * In
cleaning up the macros that generate the sigc++ slot based DBus::Method
templates support for void methods has been added. * A force parameter was
added to DBus::Object::add_child() to allow a child with a similar name to be
forced into the hierarchy replacing the old child == Key API Changes == *
DBus::Dispatcher's constructor is now protected; use DBus::Dispatcher::create()
to allocate a smart pointer * When a named object interface doesn't handle an
incoming message, the default interface is tried before failing.

bacula-2.4.4-2.el5 (FEDORA-EPEL-2010-2433)
Cross platform network backup for Linux, Unix, Mac and Windows
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
This update introduces bacula 2.4.4 into EPEL5. There are no known
incompatibilities (database and configuration can be used without changes) but a
lot of bugs are fixed. Also 2.4 is believed to be compatible with newer bacula
clients (e.g. 3.x, 5.x). More important, this update also fixes bad packaging
of the currently deployed bacula 2.0.3. It has a special fix to ensure that
bacula director/storage works even after the upgrade.

Another puppet 25.4 EL4 issue
by Len Rugen
It appears the Ruby 1.8.1 version isn't up to the new puppet task:
info: Caching catalog for <snipped node>
/usr/lib64/ruby/1.8/yaml/rubytypes.rb:315: [BUG] Segmentation fault
ruby 1.8.1 (2003-12-25) [x86_64-linux-gnu]
This is http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/2604
I updated Ruby 1.8.5 packages ruby, ruby-dev & ruby-libs. After
installing those, puppetd works except it has lost the ruby-shadow function:
info: /User[root]: Provider useradd does not support features
manages_passwords; not managing attribute password
I tested a few EL4 systems, but didn't have this problem. This system
is x86_64, not sure, but I may have tested only 32-bit.

Hoping to maintain python26 in EPEL5
by David Malcolm
I'm interested in maintaining a build of python 2.6 for EPEL5,
parallel-installable with the system "python" (2.4 in EL5, which I
comaintain within RHEL).
I've adapted Fedora 13's Python specfile (which I comaintain), using
that specfile's ability to be built as a secondary Python version (with
"main_python" set to 0). This sets "python26" as the name of the
package, and leads to it
owning /usr/bin/python2.6, /usr/lib(64)/python2.6, etc.
I've filed a review request for this package here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=573151
but I wanted to give this a broader circulation, as I'm aware that a few
EPEL5 users already build their own python 2.6 RPMs, and I want to avoid
breaking those.
Some areas of possible clashes/incompatibility:
- filesystem paths. In my package I've taken the standard locations
(/usr/bin/python2.6 /usr/include/python2.6, etc), and so it's very
possible that my package will collide with pre-existing work in this
area
- RPM names: similarly, this package is "python26", "python26-devel",
"tkinter26", etc
- unicode: this package is built with "wide unicode" (UCS4), following
what we've done in RHL, RHEL and Fedora (and indeed, I believe since Red
Hat Linux 8), rather than the upstream default of UCS2. This affects
ABI: if you've got extension modules built with UCS2 they won't work
with UCS4 (and vice versa).
Having said that, I'd expect that other RPM builds of "python26" built
with wide unicode (and without --py-debug) ought to be ABI-compatible
with this build (the devil may be in the details).
Would people find this useful to have in EPEL5?

Upgrade hack for bacula in EPEL5
by Felix Schwarz
Hi,
== summary ==
The current bacula package in EPEL is faulty. I built an upgrade hack so that
we don't require manual intervention by sysadmins. In order to get it right
this time, an rigorous review is desirable.
== background ==
The bacula package (storage+director) in EPEL5 which is shipped since
September 2007 contains a nasty bug in the %post/%postun scriptlets. If the
package is ever updated, a symlink will be missing and bacula will not start
anymore. This can be fixed e.g. by a manual install/uninstall of the bacula
package.
This error was present in Fedora but was fixed there a long time ago.
== current situation ==
We can not update the bacula package (e.g. for security reasons) without
breaking a lot of installs.
== plan for attack ==
The old package will remove the symlink generated by alternatives during
%postun unconditionally (also during upgrade). Therefore we replace the
symlink in the new package with a copy of the real file, alternatives won't
touch it and the user is happy.
After some time when everyone ("almost everyone") upgraded, we ship another
update which reverts this ugly hack.
== current implementation ==
I have a series of spec file patches which implement the fix:
http://www.felix-schwarz.name/files/misc/2010/bacula_upgrade_hack/
Also I built some test scripts which check some install/uninstall/upgrade
procedures. I wrote at least some lines how to use them in 'how_to_test.txt'.
Scratch builds:

== roadmap ==
I would like to gather as many reviews as possible on that issue:
- Is this issue worth tackling?
- Is my plan of action sane?
- Any other issues?
1) Wait for reviews+suggestions (1-2 weeks)
2) Commit/build (assuming that the plan is approved)
3) Push a new bacula to testing (2 months)
4) Push bacula to stable
5) Revert upgrade hack

puppet update broken?
by Dennis Jacobfeuerborn
Hi,
I just installed a new machine in our infrastructure but I can't get the
puppet package to work. I see it has recently been updated to 0.25.4 while
the previous version i EPEL was 0.24.8. The other machines that are still
running 0.24.8 are all doing fine but on the one with the new puppet
version I just get a "Reopening log files" in the syslog. On the other
machines this is followed by "Starting Puppet client version 0.24.8" but on
the new one nothing happens.
Starting puppet manually with "puppetd --no-damonize -d" looks good but
ends with the following output:
...

After that nothing happens.
I also noticed that the previous version has been deleted on the EPEL
servers. Was this intended? That makes any rollback to a previous version
impossible in case someone updates his machines and runs into similar problems.

Packages where EPEL and redhat.com SRPMS conflict
by Stephen John Smoogen
Ok I think I sent this a while back, but in case I didn't here are
packages that were in the two SRPMS list. Some of the packages were
moved over and such. I have also included a list of SRPMS that are in
rhel-5 that we could look at for blocking in EPEL-5.
blktrace
dstat
gnupg2
libassuan
libksba
log4cpp
nedit
perl-Config-General
perl-Net-Telnet
pinentry
