[HEADS UP] Upcoming soname change for libtirpc
by Steve Dickson 30 Oct '15

30 Oct '15

Hello, Well place sources tell me in the upcoming libtirpc release the soname will be changing due to some API changes. The API changes will make the Linux version more compatible with litbirpc implementations Obviously this change will just go in rawhide but how do I 1) request the build rpm go be added to the build root? 2) find and rebuild all the dependencies? 3) anything else I need to do? tia, steved.

At the second round of Fedora 23 Final Go/No-Go Meeting, that just ends, was agreed *not to release* the Fedora 23 Final.

Third run of the Go/No-Go meeting is going to be planned on this Friday 2015-Oct-30. There are currently no changes in the schedule of F23, and GA is still expected on Tuesday 2015-Nov-03.

System V to systemd unit migration
by Stephen Gallagher 28 Oct '15

28 Oct '15

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 At the FESCo meeting on October 14th, it was decided that the time has come to finally complete the migration away from System V init scripts. What does this mean for you as a packager? When we branch from Rawhide for Fedora 24 (currently scheduled for February 2nd, 2016), we will be immediately retiring any package in the Fedora collection that relies on a System V init script instead of a systemd unit file to start. We will consider reasonable requests to delay this action on a case-by-case basis for anyone who submits a ticket to FESCo no later than 23:59 UTC on January 12, 2016. There is no plan to remove System V compatibility from Fedora, due to the necessity of supporting legacy third-party software. We are also not making any changes at all to the EPEL project. EPEL packages may continue to use System V init scripts (in the case of EPEL 5 and EPEL 6, there is no other option). We will be going through the Wiki packaging documentation over the next month and updating all related entries to reflect this change in policy. This will be the first such announcement. The Change Wrangler will be sending additional reminders from now until February 2nd, so no one will be surprised by this event. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iEYEARECAAYFAlYxEAAACgkQeiVVYja6o6NmxwCeI7gSKCwmQ7AtBqoM3MoB8Q7a SlgAniagJ8mrWWmr/BTqEyltF21FRbBd =U6rs -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
