Mass rebuild - emacs broken
by Richard W.M. Jones 01 Feb '19

emacs isn't installable at the moment, so any package that needs emacs fails to build, eg: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=32380321 Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones Read my programming and virtualization blog: http://rwmj.wordpress.com virt-top is 'top' for virtual machines.

Can't figure out how to build flatpaks
by Pete Walter 01 Feb '19

01 Feb '19

Hi, I've noticed that someone created a flatpak build for one of my packages (feedreader), but it's horribly out of date: flatpak has 2.5.1 vs rpm has 2.7.0. I've been trying to update the flatpak build, but not much luck here. The documentation is pretty verbose, but seems to miss some crucial steps and nothing really works. I've been following https://fishsoup.net/misc/fedora-docs-flatpak/flatpak/tutorial/ Specifically, I've typed the following commands: # dnf install flatpak-module-tools fedmod $ fedpkg clone modules/feedreader $ cd feedreader $ fedmod fetch-metadata Up until here everything seems to check out and download correctly, but then when I do: $ flatpak-module local-build --install 2019-01-31 17:11:52,388 - MainThread - moksha.hub - WARNING - Cannot find qpid python module. Make sure you have python-qpid installed.

Next, I thought I'd try building it in koji. Not sure how to do that, the docs are fairly vague, mentioning 'git push origin master' but I don't have anything really to push, the existing git doesn't seem to refer to package versions or anything. I figured that maybe it somehow magically connects it to dist-git rpms/feedreader and gets the sources there so I've tried just 'fedpkg module-build' without pushing anything to modules/flatpak, but that fails again with the familiar missing buildrequires error: $ fedpkg module-build Submitting the module build... Could not execute module_build: The build failed with: None of the base module (platform or bootstrap) streams in the buildrequires section could be found Is the flatpak building actually working for anyone? What am I doing wrong? How do I specify what version to actually build? Thanks, Pete

F30: Self-Contained Change proposal: Firefox Wayland By Default On Gnome
by Ben Cotton 01 Feb '19

01 Feb '19

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Firefox_Wayland_By_Default_On_Gnome == Summary == Firefox is going to run natively on Gnome Wayland session and won't use XWayland/X11 Gtk+ backend. This change affects Gnome only and won't be enabled for other Wayland compositors (KDE Plasma, Sway). == Owner == * Name: [[User:stransky| Martin Stransky]] * Email: <stransky(a)redhat.com> * Product: Spins / Workstation * Responsible WG: Desktop == Detailed Description == Firefox with native Wayland backend has been available for last two Fedora releases as an optional package. It grown over the time and we can deploy it now as a default to bring all Wayland benefits to Fedora users. == Benefit to Fedora == Running Firefox natively on Wayland is generally faster and smoother on Wayland enabled sessions like Gnome Wayland and better supports HiDPI displays (respects desktop scale) . == Scope == * Proposal owners: Firefox already uses Wayland as a default backend on Fedora 30 / Gnoma Wayland session. * Other developers: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Release engineering: [https://pagure.io/releng/issues #Releng issue number] (a check of an impact with Release Engineering is needed) ** List of deliverables: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Policies and guidelines: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) == Upgrade/compatibility impact == N/A (not a System Wide Change) == How To Test == Run Firefox on Gnome Wayland session and check any issues you may see. == User Experience == * Faster Firefox run on Gnome Wayland session * Smoother font rendering compared to non-Wayland Firefox version * Honor display scale, better user experience on HiDPI and semi-HiDPI desktops. == Dependencies == N/A (not a System Wide Change) == Contingency Plan == * Contingency mechanism: Switch back default X11 backend. * Contingency deadline: Beta Freeze * Blocks release? No * Blocks product? product No == Documentation == * Mozilla Firefox Wayland Bug tracker: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=635134 * Mozilla release calendar: https://wiki.mozilla.org/RapidRelease/Calendar -- Ben Cotton Fedora Program Manager TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis
