yum Environment Groups?
by D. Hugh Redelmeier
On my Fedora 18 system, when I do a "yum group list", I get three lists of
groups: Available Environment Groups, Installed Groups, and Available
Groups. I understand what the second and third lists are.
What is an Environment Group? Why is none actually installed (eg.
GNOME Desktop)?
The yum manpage mentions Environment Groups obliquely, but doesn't explain
what they are. My googling doesn't seem to yield anything helpful.
After I wrote that, I continued playing and discovered some more
surprises.
I installed a bunch of groups (but no Environment Groups). Now "yum
group list" shows an Installed Environment Groups list:
Infrastructure Server, Minimal Install. These had previously been
listed as Available Environment Groups.
Next, I installed Environment Group "GNOME Desktop". I'd have thought that
was the default. No matter. A small number of additional packages
were added. But yum list still shows "GNOME Desktop" as an Available
Environment Group, not an Installed Environment Group. How come?
Similarly, I did a yum install of Environment Group KDE Plasma
Workspaces. No packages actually got added since they were all
already there. Yet yum group list still shows KDE Plasma Workspaces
as Available, not Installed.

Thank-you. My apologies for not responding sooner. I got buried in company paperwork yesterday. Then Xerox (a) accepted my ticket, and (b) gave it priority 1. So I'm putting this on hold for a few days hoping they fix their rpm file. The Xerox engineer did not seem too confident, saying:
- This printer uses GDI-based drivers, so technically speaking, the
- standard print process with Linux environments wouldn’t work since
- they only use PostScript-based drivers or emulators. I’m sure
- engineering solved that problem somehow, but I don’t see how since
- the files the driver package includes are just ppds and a few filters.
But he's trying.
To answer your question, I did an "rpm -qp -l" on Xerox's 64-bit Linux .rpm file for this printer. I saw no PCL file.
Bill.

Documentation for colord-sane
by Joe Zeff
I've been trying to get the nVidia drivers to work again on my desktop,
using F 17. Instead of using the binary blob directly, and having to do
it again and again every time the kernel updates, I've been trying this
guide: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=204752 which
worked fine with my old nVidia card.
Alas, every time I've tried, the system hangs, with this as the last two
lines on the screen:
[ 37.160831] usb 1-4: usbfs: interface 1 claimed by usblp while
'colord-sane' sets config #1
[ 42.792091] usb 1-4: usbfs: interface 1 claimed by usblp while
'colord-sane' sets config #1
After this, the computer just sits there with no disk activity. I can
use ^Alt-F2 to get to a different terminal and log in as root just fine.
Top shows that nothing is going on. If I use yum to remove the
drivers and reboot, it works, as does booting into an older kernel using
nouveau. Once that's done, /var/log/messages has another set of the
above lines, followed by this:
khorlia colord-sane[665]: (colord-sane:665): CdSane-WARNING **: failed
to create device:
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.ColorManager.AlreadyExists: device id
'sane-Canon PIXMA MX410' already exists
I've done quite a bit of searching and haven't been able to find any
documentation on the service. In fact, I've even looked up various bugs
at Bugzilla, and emailed the person one of them was assigned to, asking
for a pointer to the info I needed, but haven't had a reply after well
over 24 hours. (Not a complaint; people get busy.) If anybody can
point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it because, if nothing
else, I might be able to learn how to get the trouble-shooting info I
need. And, while I'm thinking about it, there are no AVC alerts, so
it's not related to SELinux.

Fedora 18 network printer setup
by D. Hugh Redelmeier
I have a Brother DCP-7065dn printer scanner connected to my LAN.
Sadly, it requires a proprietary driver. I've installed that.
<http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public_s/id/linux/en/index.html>
I asked the System Settings: Printers to set it up (add the printer).
The SS:P found the printer (so it must have found its IP address) and
added it. But the SS:P was only willing to configure it with the IP
Address "localhost". Not surprisingly, printing didn't work.
I even tried telling SS:P the printer's IP address, but it ignored
that and used localhost.
I used SS:P to remove the printer again.
I used the CUPS web server to add the printer (as suggested on the
Brother page). That worked. My printer has a static IP address,
which made pointing Firefox at it easier.
Why would Systems Settings: Printers not be able to add this network
printer?

yum erase unused dependencies
by Bill Davidsen
I recall last year a discussion of using yum to remove unwanted packages, and
tell it to remove only dependencies which were used by no other package. I can't
seem to find how that was done in my notes, could someone give me a pointer to
the method?

Using Exim as a controlled relayer
by Gary Stainburn
I've managed to get the Exim + Pgsql setup working.
For the domains I'm hosting I have a set of records which contain an email
address within the domain and an delivery email address, e.g.
user(a)hosted.domain -> gary.stainburn(a)ringways.co.uk
When I test this using
exim -bt user(a)hosted.domain
it works fine, but when I try to send an email it fails
relay not permitted.
Obviously i do not want to turn on relaying, so how can I configure Exim to
allow emails that have matched a record in the user table to be forwarded?
