Slight change in how cvs notifications work
by Toshio Kuratomi 30 Jul '08

30 Jul '08

We've had some issues with notification emails being sent on cvs commits. Sometimes generating the list of email addresses to notify was slow, on other occassions it would fail altogether. To alleviate this we've changed from a dynamic determination of who is notified by querying the pkgdb to a static one by sending to an email alias generated from pkgdb information once an hour. There is one major difference (besides speed) to note in this: Before, the owner and people in the watchcommits acls received notifications that a cvs commit was made to a package. Now the owner and people onwatchcommits and watchbugzilla acls are notified. The aliases used to send these messages are all pkg-owner(a)fedoraproject.org in case you have mail filters you want to setup to handle it. Thank you, -Toshio _______________________________________________ Fedora-devel-announce mailing list Fedora-devel-announce(a)redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-announce

= Release planning meeting, 2008-07-30 = == Attendance == ''Present:'' Tom Callaway (Engineering/Legal), Paul Frields (moderator), Jesse Keating (RelEng), Jonathan Roberts (Marketing), Seth Vidal (Infrastructure), Karsten Wade (Docs) == Agenda == === Reiterating purpose === * Not policy setting, nor decision making * Progress reporting and schedule debugging only * Making sure that dependencies that affect releases are being satisfied across Fedora community teams * Any action items are potential only, until pushed out into the community space for discussion and follow-through === Current Alpha status (RelEng) === * Not finished ** Number of composes happening internally on f13's workstation ** Not enough got done during OLS/OSCON - not enough people doing anything with looking at bits ** We can't compose yet in PHX, which is why it happens on f13's station ** Chasing down issues with anaconda currently, hopefully on the last few now ** f13 hopes to have a candidate release tree ** New problem in installer right now * Not yet in danger of slipping ** If we don't have a tree by tomorrow, that's not good === Infrastructure === * uncomfortable problems in existing BT server, it keeps dying (serverbeach1) ** Might be routing, or hardware... testing to figure it out ** skvidal is going to keep a very close eye on making sure the old and new servers are sync'd '''DEBUGGING:''' Should f13's routine change? No. * Space issues? 261GB available on netapps ** many terabytes coming back online "soon" ** drives hopefully coming in next week, then it's just reconfiguring, no onsite required === Docs === * Alpha and Beta release notes are a one-sheet on the wiki ** Living document, can change after release day ** QA, Desktop, and RelEng have done a great job of adding some important content ** Priority is to let testers know what you want them to do with the Alpha '''DEBUGGING:''' We need a list of pre-approved URLs for release announcement * Docs can handle the majority of the text for the release announcement email, and check URLs, so releng can concentrate on sending it out when final * Release notes production is hopefully going to change with F10 to use an in-distro tool, publican, to build === Marketing === * Not much on plate for Alpha in particular * Geek news will be all over the Alpha, are we doing anything to publicize it? ** Paul has been working with Kara on e.g. a press blog entry ** Our announcement should also serve as testing recruitment === Legal === * Nothing at this time == Next meeting == * Post-partum Alpha meeting would probably be useful ** if no agenda items, no meeting * Definitely one a few days ahead of Beta freeze ** Announcements to go to fedora-devel-list _______________________________________________ Fedora-devel-announce mailing list Fedora-devel-announce(a)redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-announce

Hi All, When run command scsi_id on my RedHat4.6 Linux box, I got some messages with "no match". In /etc/scsi_id.config, there is a line *options=-b* There is a valid line in configure file, I can not understand why there is a "no match" message when treat this line? *Is this a bug*? more detail outputs and the whole scsi_id.config have been listed as below. ------------- [root@wjiang-RHEL4-32-1 ~]# scsi_id -v -s /block/sda set_options: option 's' arg '/block/sda' scsi_id: target_path /sys/block/sda scsi_id: class_dev 0x0x9a044a8; class_dev_parent 0x(nil) create_tmp_dev: (/sys/block/sda) sysfs_get_attr: /sys/block/sda/dev get_major_minor: dev value 8:0 create_tmp_dev: tmpdev '/dev/tmp-scsi-maj8-min0-20880' sysfs_get_attr: /sys/devices/platform/host0/target0:0:0/0:0:0:0/vendor sysfs_get_attr: /sys/devices/platform/host0/target0:0:0/0:0:0:0/model get_file_options: vendor='DGC '; model='RAID 5 ' get_file_options: config file line 28: vendor '(null)'; model '(null)'; options '-b' *get_file_options: no match* get_file_options: config file line 33: vendor 'someone'; model 'nicedrive'; options '-g' *get_file_options: no match* scsi_id: per dev options: good 0; page code 0x0; callout '' scsi_id: buffer unaligned 0x0x9a047f8; aligned 0x0x9a04800 [root@wjiang-RHEL4-32-1 ~]# cat /etc/scsi_id.config ... # If you normally don't need scsi id's, or might be attaching devices of # an unknown functionality, black list everyone.

GTKEntry and all that uses it don't have a default transparent background
by Mark 29 Jul '08

29 Jul '08

Hi, Before i get the messages again like: have you made a bugzilla report? Yea: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=536121 And got marked as duplicate of: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=534611 Now what is the issue? ------------------------------------------- Ever since i see rounded entry fields in linux i keep seeing a damn gray stroke around it that fills the entry till it's... not round anymore.. With some themes that doesn't make a difference and still looks nice but as soon as a theme stasts using just gradient and just one gtkentry widget or one that's related of it you will notice the annoying gray border around it. The bug report itself is "just" 2 months old but the issue itself is visible for far longer. Not understanding the following --------------------------------------------- What i don't understand is that some widgets have this issue and some don't For example a radio widget doesn't have this bug. So to me that comes like: "see we can make it right but refuse it for other widgets".. now why exactly in understandable terms is this bug (that's what is it) still in GTK? The solution?? -------------------------------------------- In the bugzilla report Matthias Clasen (RedHat employee) says: "...and it is still a theme issue. This border is drawn by nodoka, clearlooks or whatever theme you choose." Now to say that is fine. perhaps he is right perhaps not. But because he also is a GTK developer and this issue is so wide spread at the moment (visible in every distribution that uses gnome and rounded corners.. Fedora, Ubuntu.. you name it.) so to quote myself on what i had to say about it: "Why do you say it's a issue of the theme engines? your a GTK programmer so you can tell the engine developers what they do wrong and how to fix it. But because big distributions like Fedora (you know all about it ^_^) and Ubuntu are released with those ugly borders and while they both have more then enough resources to adjust the theme engine to show those borders normally.. So How to fix this issue that all theme engine developers encounter and can't fix when they use rounded borders?" Do i need to say more? Why do i care about this? -------------------------------------------- Well.. i said it more often here. I want to learn c++ and it's finally gonna happen in about a month then for about 4 months to start. I already looked at QT and GTK to develop Linux application. For me QT is fine but seems so much and hard to learn.. (i know.. looking at it way to early but just looking at what i need to learn). GTK seems more friendly to learn but i absolutely hate the small little bugs that are in it and open and probably easy to fix. It's just 2 bugs a.t.m. that really bother me. 1 is solved: line truncating and saying like 2 lines then truncate the rest. Which is a bug that was open for 7 years or so!!! and still not in Gnome!! (really something to be ashamed of. i did even got it working here but then encountered other issues.. so the gnome people should just take a look at it.. for them it's probably a 5 minute job and a 7 year old bug can be closed) and the other one is this bug. Just minor really but does give me a nasty feeling about GTK. Another annoying point is that bugs stay unconfirmed for so long while they are just confirmed or even solved! For me.. i still don't know if i need to start learning QT or GTK or even abandon those 2 completely and try wxWidgets.. And that's why i care. I don't want to learn a "product" that's (sorry) poorly maintained or where i get the feeling that filling bugs is useless (got both with Gnome and GTK). Why did i posted this here? -------------------------------------------- I wanted information of this and give it some attention. GTK is mostly developed by redhat people and fedora is using the latest GTK version. And because Fedora is now in development for version 10 this is the perfect time to look at that darn bug as well. That's why i post it here. My goal -------------------------------------------- First just to get the attention of this bug! Second to get this bug fixed! once and for all with the next fedora release. Anything i said above is just how i feel about it. It might not be the case for others! Don't take anything personal. (oke, the part about Matthias Clasen excluded). cc's him just in case.

Orphaning 8Kingdoms
by Hans de Goede 29 Jul '08

29 Jul '08

Hi All, I've just orphaned 8KingDoms, as I've been receiving several bug reports about crashes left and right, upstream is dead and I have other priorities then fixing bugs in a dead code base for a fun but nothing really special game. So if anyone wants it, take it please, I've accumulated all the bugs here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=456844 Regards, Hans
