It may be difficult for users arriving at docs.fp.o to know where to start, especially if they are new to Fedora/Linux and are unfamiliar with some of the technical terms. A note on the landing page suggesting a sensible starting point for new users could help alleviate this problem. Eg: "New to Fedora? You can try Fedora on your PC without touching your existing installation by following the Live Image Guide." The end of the Live Image guide helpfully points users to the Installation guide if they want to install :) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.

[Bug 450331] New: lack of documentation on restoring from bare-metal (UUID problem)

I have found (see reference) that restore the root ("/") is not as simple as as just executing the restore command when running in rescue mode. With the current emphasis being place on use of UUIDs in both Fedora and RHEL, the whole business of UUIDs need to be better documented.

[Bug 595695] New: Direct links to RNs broken.

Please do not reply directly to this email. All additional comments should be made in the comments box of this bug. Summary: Direct links to RNs broken. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=595695 Summary: Direct links to RNs broken. Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: medium Priority: low Component: docs-requests AssignedTo: eric(a)christensenplace.us ReportedBy: eric(a)christensenplace.us QAContact: fedora-docs-list(a)redhat.com CC: stickster(a)gmail.com, kwade(a)redhat.com Classification: Fedora Description of problem: * Previously, the release notes were located at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ * Their location has changed to release specific URLs. * A link to the release notes is provided in fedora-bookmarks. * fedora-bookmarks are imported by the browser only on *first launch* so as to not overwrite user modifications. The new bookmarks layout causes two problems: 1. Nobody filed a fedora-bookmarks bug so Fedora 13 (and anyone on F-11 or F-12 etc) will default to going to http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ which is a 404. Since the bookmarks can only be imported on first launch, we cannot push an update to fix this if the user has launched the browser (which is extremely likely). 2. Even if I were to fix the bookmarks page to point directly to a specific release version (which again would take effect only if someone would yum update before launching Firefox), then if anyone updated to F-14, the bookmark would not change and would still point to e.g. F-13. So, I do not think that we should put version specific information into our bookmarks URLs. To solve both of the above problems, I believe we should try to do some User-Agent detection and redirection. Fedora browsers have an RPM NVR attached to them. For example: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; es-ES; rv:1.9.2.4) Gecko/20100517 Fedora/3.6.4-1.fc13 Firefox/3.6.4 This tells us that the user's installed language is es-ES and it's a Fedora browser, specifically running F-13. We should then redirect queries to http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ to http://docs.fedoraproject.org/es-ES/Fedora/13/html/Release_Notes/index.html If we cannot figure any information out about the Fedora release or language (or there are no relnotes in that language), I propose the default redirect should be to the en-US version of the latest Fedora release notes. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.

docs.fedoraproject.org inaccessible
by Walter Cheuk 04 May '12

04 May '12

Hi docs.fedoraproject.org is not accessible if the browser's accepting language is set to 'Chinese (Taiwan)' (zh_TW). And the translations done at https://fedora.transifex.net/ do not appear there. Regards, Walter Cheuk

Announce, Release Notes currently in translation
by Kévin Raymond 02 May '12

02 May '12

Hi translators, We have updated the Fedora 17 Release Notes POT in transifex.net, please, start translating them: https://fedora.transifex.net/projects/p/fedora-release-notes/ You'll notice that few files (Accounts, Entertainment, Boot, Dedication, Networking, Web_Servers) are not accepting translations, that's because we don't have those sections in the current RN. We will clean that later. You should be able to proofread online at http://fedorapeople.org/groups/docs/release-notes/ Please come back to the docs team if translations are not updated, I haven't checked if they are currently rebuilt daily (they should). Be aware that we could update the some bit of the Release Notes if feel the need to. I could already told you that Security.po will be lighter as the firewalld will probably be dropped (feature moved to F18). <= jjmcd, please? Sincere apologies for being this late to provides POTs, we still are setting the right process and writing some scripts… And the maitainers thought that we already had them on transifex. Best Regards, -- Kévin Raymond (shaiton) GPG-Key: A5BCB3A2

Release Notes Packaging
by John J. McDonough 30 Apr '12

30 Apr '12

I updated the page about pushing the release notes: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Getting_the_release_notes_to_Bodhi to reflect some of the d-p-r steps in a little more detail, particularly the edits to the spec file which I often forget. I also made some minor tweaks to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Preparing_the_Release_Notes_for_final_release to reflect the new URL for tx At 10,000 feet the steps are: 1. Update the revision history 2. Remove the draft tag 3. Build all languages to be packaged 4. Grab the specfile from fedpkg 5. Edit the specfile changelog and description 6. Run d-p-r using the edited specfile 7. Do a scratch build to double-check 8. Give fedpkg the tar and spec made by d-p-r 9. Go get karma Sounds like a lot but usually it takes about an hour. --McD

Error occurred when trying to make a draft release notes PDF
by Tiansworld 30 Apr '12

30 Apr '12

Hi guys, I was trying to make a draft release notes PDF by using the command: "publican build --embedtoc --publish --formats pdf --langs zh-CN" under my own translation git branch. An error occurs and prevents publican from completing the job. The error output is: "Validation failed: Cloud.xml:75: validity error : Element primary is not declared in title list of possible children" I checked xml file under en-US/Cloud.xml, but I don't know what to do. I don't know xml. The following steps were done before I did publican build 1. git pull git://git.fedorahosted.org/git/docs/release-notes.git master 2. tx pull -l zh_CN How can I solve the error? -- Regards, Tiansworld Fedora Project Contributor
