spins in f19
by Kevin Fenzi 08 Feb '13

08 Feb '13

So, we had a fudcon session about spins, but it was merged with the talk on Fedora Formulas and we didn't really decide anything about spins. Formulas aren't going to fully replace spins, and even if they do, they likely won't be ready for f19 anyhow, so we need to figure out what we do for f19 now. a) what about the new spins that didn't get added in f18? If their spin owners are actually active, they should chime in and commit their ks to git and update the f19 spins page with their size and so releng knows to produce them. b) Any new spins need to SUBMIT THEIR KS FILES ASAP so we can avoid problems where things don't make it. c) There's no meetings, Christoph is swamped, how do we want to handle the day to day business of the sig? I was thinking we should require at each freeze point that any spins we promote on spins.fedoraproject.org have at least 2 people sign off that they tested them and they basically work. If 0 people do this sign off, we should still produce them, but they sit in alt and don't get promoted anywhere. If a spin doesn't get any testing for an entire cycle, we drop them completely. Thoughts? counter proposals? kevin

Re: [Fedora-spins] polkit changes in f19

If you want or need support for js rules, you need to pull in the polkit-js-engine package. I've just made this change for the desktop spin. It would probably have been useful if you'd emailed the spins list about there changes. Also is there any documentation as to why we'd need the polkit-js-engine what functionality it provides, and more importantly what we'd lose by not including it? Peter

Login screen issue happened after I built design suite iso (currently 1.2GB without LibreOffice) for testing purpose. After pressing enter to authenticate, the session will return to the login screen. I looked at the design ks file from git master and it appears the bugs is from either fedora-live-base or fedora-live-base ks. It is very similar to the issue reported by an user for F18 design spin. I also successfully reproduced the same issue after rebuilding the Live Desktop spin locally. Luya

comps.xml entry for audio related packages
by Brendan Jones 31 Jan '13

31 Jan '13

Hi, we are considering submitting a change request to add the "core" audio packages for inclusion in the comps file. Other distributions have a Multimedia group, but I was thinking we should have one which is only audio related. I'm unsure what to call this group - the spin is Fedora Jam, but I was thinking we should just opt for "Audio" as the name. However, there is also the use case for multimedia which could pull in the video side of things as well as Audio. What do people think? We will probably look at including these packages as a base, however I'd recommend removing some of the soundfonts as they are quite large [1]. Should we be looking to cull it further? OTOH, we could just call the group "Fedora Jam" and leave as is, but I worry that the name is not intuitive at install time. Should we submit multiple groups (ie Audio and /Fedora Jam) regards, Brendan [1] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_jam#Included_Packages

Adding spins-kickstart permission issue.

Following the instruction from the wiki[1], I hit a permission denial below: $ scp spin-kickstarts-*.tar.gz fedorahosted.org:spin-kickstarts The authenticity of host 'fedorahosted.org (66.135.62.201)' can't be established.
