List server mis-configured?
by Emmett Culley 22 Jul '25

22 Jul '25

I noticed recently that each time I send an email to the kde(a)lists.fedoraproject.org mailing list I get up to three failed DMARC reports from other email servers. The list is sending email "from" me with the source address: Source-IP: 38.145.60.11 (bastion-iad01.fedoraproject.org) Which, of course, does not match up with my email server's IP address, so SPF fails, It also appears that DKIM signature also does not match. I've had my server's DNS set up to request DMARK failure reports for a few years and haven't seen any reports lately except via this list. So I am wondering if something is mis-configured on this list server. Emmett

time to orphan/retire unmaintained uncommon kde4 language bindings?
by Rex Dieter 07 May '25

07 May '25

Looking over some broken deps reports, I came across some old packages: kdebindings smokeqt smokekde qyoto (csharp/mono) kimono (csharp/mono) ruby-qt ruby-korundum perl-Qt Of these, the only one that's not a pure leaf package is perl-Qt (debconf- kde depends on it). any comment or objection to considering orphaning most (all minus smokeqt/perl-Qt) or all of these ? -- Rex

Logitech mouse
by Emmett Culley 08 Apr '22

08 Apr '22

I have a logitech mouse that has been working well for a long time. Except that every once in a while it suddenly won't scroll one line at a time and instead requires multiple turns of the wheel to move a page. I've been putting up with this as I am able to fix it by running solaar and toggling scroll wheel resolution off then on again. Only a couple of mouse clicks. Now it seems to have gotten worse, or I am finally tired of having to stop my workflow to fix it. It seems to be related to the mouse going to sleep during inactivity, though it is random enough so I cannot be sure. I am on the latest fedora 34 code, and I have been seeing issue since before 32. Any ideas where to look for a solution? Emmett

Fedora 36: KDE blockers and priorities
by Adam Williamson 01 Apr '22

01 Apr '22

Hey folks! Just wanted to sync up on the Fedora 36 Final process. First, some key dates: 2022-04-05 (1400 UTC): Final freeze starts 2022-04-14: Go/No-Go meeting We would want to have all known blockers addressed by 2022-04-11 at the latest in order to have sufficient time for validation testing. Any update that wants to go stable after 2022-04-05 1400 UTC will need to be a fix for a blocker or FE bug, so if there are updates you folks want included in Final that are *not* blocker/FE fixes, please ensure they're submitted in good time. If there's an issue getting sufficient karma for an update, please let us know on the test@ list or the QA IRC/Matrix channel. Quick note, I'm mostly on PTO from Saturday (April 2) to April 17. I will be checking in periodically but won't be anywhere near as around as I usually am. Please treat pings/pokes from the rest of my team with as much priority as you do or don't usually treat pings/pokes from me. :D coremodule (Geoffrey Marr) and Frantisek Zatloukal will be handling blocker herding duties. There's currently only one outstanding blocker for KDE, but it's been sitting for a while: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2057563 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=447958 , was marked as dupe of: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=448784 It's a bug where hitting the About button in Discover causes the app to stop responding, apparently due to some kind of loop in the UI code. Aleix seems to have diagnosed the problem in upstream #448784, but that was last month and I don't see a fix yet. Thanks folks! -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA IRC: adamw | Twitter: adamw_ha https://www.happyassassin.net

Building from a Kickstart file - out of space error
by Philip Rhoades 30 Mar '22

30 Mar '22

People, I am trying to build from a ks file but I keep getting errors about not enough space on / - but there is plenty of space: /dev/sda3 183G 31G 143G 18% / Is the error about / on the image that is being created? I have tried removing all non-critical packages - which reduces the number in the error message but I don't understand why I am getting it all . . Here is what I get: [lots of errors like this]: installing package NetworkManager-config-connectivity-fedora-1:1.37.3-1.fc37.noarch needs 296MB more space on the / filesystem Error Summary ------------- Disk Requirements: At least 296MB more space needed on the / filesystem.

2022-03-28 @ 16:00 UTC - Fedora 36 Blocker Review Meeting
by Adam Williamson 26 Mar '22

26 Mar '22

# F36 Blocker Review meeting # Date: 2022-03-28 # Time: 16:00 UTC # Location: #fedora-blocker-review on irc.libera.chat Hi folks! We have 6 proposed Final blockers and 2 proposed Final freeze exception issues to review, so let's have a review meeting on Monday. Remember, Europeans, if DST kicks in for you this weekend, the meeting time will change for you this week, back to the time it usually is except for this one weird intermission every year. :D If you have time this weekend, you can take a look at the proposed or accepted blockers before the meeting - the full lists can be found here: https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/ . Remember, you can also now vote on bugs outside of review meetings! If you look at the bug list in the blockerbugs app, you'll see links labeled "Vote!" next to all proposed blockers and freeze exceptions. Those links take you to tickets where you can vote. https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review has instructions on how exactly you do it. We usually go through the tickets shortly before the meeting and apply any clear votes, so the meeting will just cover bugs where there wasn't a clear outcome in the ticket voting yet. **THIS MEANS IF YOU VOTE NOW, THE MEETING WILL BE SHORTER!** We'll be evaluating these bugs to see if they violate any of the Release Criteria and warrant the blocking of a release if they're not fixed. Information on the release criteria for F36 can be found on the wiki [0]. For more information about the Blocker and Freeze exception process, check out these links: - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_blocker_bug_process - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_freeze_exception_bug_process And for those of you who are curious how a Blocker Review Meeting works - or how it's supposed to go and you want to run one - check out the SOP on the wiki: - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_Blocker_Bug_Meeting Have a good weekend and see you on Monday!

Dpi in libreoffice on Wayland
by Jan Simonson 19 Mar '22

19 Mar '22

Hello, I use Fedora 35 fully up to date. My monitor is 32 inch with a resolution of 4k. When I try to use libreoffice on a Wayland session everything becomes very tiny. Almost all other programs adapt well to the rather high dpi. When I try X11 instead the libreoffice display is normally sized. I have searched for a dpi setting in libreoffice without finding any. Why is the result so different in X11 and Wayland using the same settings? What can I do to solve the problem? Best regards Jan

# F36 Blocker Review meeting # Date: 2022-03-21 # Time: ** 16:00 ** UTC # Location: #fedora-blocker-review on irc.libera.chat Hi folks! We have 1 proposed Beta blocker, 1 proposed Beta freeze exception issue, and 4 proposed Final blockers to review, so let's have a review meeting on Monday. Remember DST started in North America last week, and check the meeting time carefully! If you're in North America it's at the same time as always, if you're anywhere else it's likely earlier (when DST starts in Europe it'll be back to the 'usual' time there). If you have time this weekend, you can take a look at the proposed or accepted blockers before the meeting - the full lists can be found here: https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/ .
