by Red Hat Bugzilla 30 Nov '18

30 Nov '18

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1021605 Bug ID: 1021605 Summary: No Default Syslog Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Component: install-guide Keywords: Tracking Assignee: pbokoc(a)redhat.com Reporter: pbokoc(a)redhat.com QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org CC: brentrbrian(a)gmail.com, johannbg(a)gmail.com, jreznik(a)redhat.com, kvolny(a)redhat.com, mattdm(a)redhat.com, pbokoc(a)redhat.com, yjcoshc(a)gmail.com, zach(a)oglesby.co, zbyszek(a)in.waw.pl Depends On: 967521, 998573 Blocks: 1001355, 1001356 +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #998573 +++ This is a tracking bug for Change: No Default Syslog For more details, see: http://fedoraproject.org//wiki/Changes/NoDefaultSyslog No longer install a traditional syslog service by default. (Specifically, remove rsyslog from the @core or @standard groups in comps.) --- Additional comment from Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek on 2013-10-08 15:22:54 EDT --- http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/commit/?id=2b8f6883a17b --- Additional comment from Jaroslav Reznik on 2013-10-11 04:44:57 EDT --- This message is a reminder that Fedora 20 Accepted Changes 100% Completed Deadline is on 2013-10-15 [1]. All Accepted Changes has to be code complete and ready to be validated in the Beta release (optionally by Fedora QA). Required bug state at this point is ON_QA. As for several System Wide Changes, Beta Change Deadline is a point of contingency plan, all incomplete Changes will be reported to FESCo for 2013-10-16 meeting. In case of any questions, don't hesitate to ask Wrangler (jreznik). [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/20/Schedule --- Additional comment from Matthew Miller on 2013-10-15 14:38:53 EDT --- The basic change to implement this went in, although quite a few packages still bring in rsyslogd as a dependency. I think this feature is fine as it is, and we'll detangle that as part of making separate, targeted Fedora products. --- Additional comment from Jaroslav Reznik on 2013-10-16 06:56:42 EDT --- Ok, thanks, moving to ON_QA. --- Additional comment from Karel Volný on 2013-10-21 08:27:14 EDT --- just FTR, journal brings bug #967521 - how could we switch to this nonsense if that one is still unresolved? well, in fact, how could we even have this activated by default, maybe I'm just out of luck googling, but I see no approval for journal to be used? --- Additional comment from Jóhann B. Guðmundsson on 2013-10-21 08:59:21 EDT --- Just an FYI This feature is not as simple as no default syslog. We need to fix the entire syslog ( journal/rsyslog/syslog-ng ) implementation in the distribution, come up with virtual provide ( to sub package or not to sub package rsyslog/syslog-ng ) as well as fix roughly 600 packages. Now the proposal on how to do so has been stuck with FPC for 2 years now and until that has been done and fixed this feature can never be considered 100% complete... --- Additional comment from Matthew Miller on 2013-10-21 09:10:10 EDT --- (In reply to Jóhann B.

I agree that that's the target, and also that it will continue to be slow-moving. This feature was intentionally meant to slice off and accomplish a small portion of that. --- Additional comment from Brent R Brian on 2013-10-21 09:42:27 EDT --- My comments are not intended to be a remedy, fix, enoursement of a fix/remedy or anything other than a "data point". If you guys need a "lab rat", let me know. B --- Additional comment from Jóhann B. Guðmundsson on 2013-10-21 11:10:22 EDT --- (In reply to Matthew Miller from comment #7) > (In reply to Jóhann B.

This feature was intentionally meant to slice off and > accomplish a small portion of that. That is one of the core problem people really as in that feature and related work are just implemented up to the point it serves the feature requester need ( and is labelled as 100% feature completed ) as opposed to the actual work required to implement properly into the distribution. What we need to do is to keep distribute wide changes as these in a separated branch and switch all the components at the same time when the feature actually is 100% feature complete Referenced Bugs: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=967521 [Bug 967521] /var/log/journal breaks system startup https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=998573 [Bug 998573] No Default Syslog https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1001355 [Bug 1001355] No Default Syslog https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1001356 [Bug 1001356] No Default Syslog -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.

[Bug 1615744] New: Kernel module signing instructions for Secure Boot contain errors
by bugzilla＠redhat.com 14 Aug '18

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1615744 Bug ID: 1615744 Summary: Kernel module signing instructions for Secure Boot contain errors Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Component: system-administrator's-guide Severity: medium Assignee: pbokoc(a)redhat.com Reporter: adhenry.9(a)gmail.com QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org CC: swadeley(a)redhat.com Description of problem: At the following Documentation address: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora/f28/system-administrators-guide… There are a couple of syntax errors regarding listing keyrings and signing a kernel module. How reproducible: every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Reference to "keyctl list %:.system_keyring" is deprecated and should instead be: keyctl list %:.builtin_trusted_keys This can be verified by listing the keys: cat /proc/keys | grep keyring Note that this error is already discussed in Bug 1509714: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1509714 2. Secondly, the script syntax for signing a kernel module is wrong. In the documentation it says as follows: ~]# perl /usr/src/kernels/$(uname -r)/scripts/sign-file \ > sha256 \ > my_signing_key.priv \ > my_signing_key_pub.der \ > my_module.ko Running the above gives this error: Unrecognized character \ ; marked by <-- HERE after <-- HERE near column 1 at /usr/src/linux/scripts/sign-file line 1. But perl is no longer needed since kernel 4.3.3 and sign-file is now an executable, so it should read like this: ~]# /usr/src/kernels/$(uname -r)/scripts/sign-file \ > sha256 \ > my_signing_key.priv \ > my_signing_key_pub.der \ > my_module.ko Additional info: -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.

I noticed when torrenting a Linux ISO that maxed out my connection speed that gnome-system-monitor was claiming a transfer rate that was 2-3 times what the torrent client said as well as 2-3 times my FIOS bandwidth availability. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.19.3-100.fc20.x86_64 How reproducible: Easily. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Download a large file 2. Compare gnome-system-monitor Network History speeds to another tool 3. Actual results: gnome-system-monitor Network History speeds are 2-3 times reality. Expected results: Accurate values.

I setup /var on my system to be part of root. I ran into a problem. I received a warning that / was less than 1 gig from full. I did a du -h of /var and it's grown to 15gigs. The culprits are freedesktop, lots of icons, and loads of Gnome crap (from F26 forward). Gnome software updates are not cleaning up /var I cleared out 2 gigs of logs. It is my intention to separate /var to it's own partion away from my SSD drive to a hard disk. I sized /var to be 10gigs, but now my existing /var does not fit. Ergo so my warning message about partition full. What size is recommended. I ran a du -h /var and I am attaching a list of the Fedora /var contents less the zero byte entries. Although this is documentation, I will be posting a second bug against F28 gnome not cleaning up and along with freedesktop. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Development documents. How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info: -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.
