[Fedora-electronic-lab-list] Request for Trademark Approval (Fedora Electronic Lab Spin)
by Chitlesh GOORAH 18 Aug '08

18 Aug '08

Hello there, Yet again, Fedora Electronic Lab wants to be part of the huge feature list of Fedora's next release. Though, I believe everyone is familiar to FEL, I would welcome everyone to have a look at its feature page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/FedoraElectronicLab Thereby, I'm requesting Fedora Advisory Board's approval to use Fedora Trademark on the FEL spin (based on F10 Cambridge). The kickstart file (for the FEL's livedvd) can be found on the fedora hosted git repositories. Unfortunately, I can't access that url right now. But I assume you can find it easily :) Kind Regards, Chitlesh GOORAH

[Fedora-electronic-lab-list] Xcircuit in Fedora Repos very old
by Aanjhan R 15 Aug '08

15 Aug '08

Hi All, Is there any particular reason why xcircuit in the repos are 3.4.x series while the upstream has released 3.6.x series which has much much better stability and functionality? Cheers! -- Aanjhan

[Fedora-electronic-lab-list] Features Page Update
by Aanjhan R 14 Aug '08

14 Aug '08

Hi All, I am trying to help out with the Features Page[1] update required for Approval of Electronic spin. I remember a discussion sometime back regarding moving from LiveCD to LiveDVD and addition of new software packages. If someone could provide me such a list of additional packages or the kickstart file, I can update the #Packages section of the page. Also, do we have an update FEL_flyer ? Especially the last page of the current flyer [2] needs quite an update with the Technical support and mailing list detail updates.

[Fedora-electronic-lab-list] Fwd: [Fwd: [Fedora-spins] Developer and Electronic-Lab Spins]

I think this is an important mail to follow up. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Rahul Sundaram <sundaram(a)fedoraproject.org> Date: Mon, Aug 11, 2008 at 11:58 PM Subject: [Fwd: [Fedora-spins] Developer and Electronic-Lab Spins] To: fedora-india(a)redhat.com Hi, Whoever volunteered to do the developer spin should take care of this. Rahul Guys, you are lacking Feature Pages, and are therefore not yet approved by Release Engineering to be composed for the Beta. Create your feature pages and drop a note on both the fedora-spins mailing list, as well as the fedora-advisory-board for trademark approval, after which you can continue to move to the rel-eng mailing list at lists.fedoraproject.org to get your final approval. Most appropriate would be to do so in advance of the Beta Feature Freeze, coming up August 19th. Kind regards, Jeroen van Meeuwen -kanarip _______________________________________________ Fedora-spins mailing list Fedora-spins(a)lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/fedora-spins _______________________________________________ Fedora-india mailing list Fedora-india(a)redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-india -- Aanjhan ------------ http://www.tuxmaniac.com

[Fedora-electronic-lab-list] Fwd: [Xcircuit-dev] Seg faults when opening Library window
by Aanjhan R 11 Aug '08

11 Aug '08

Hello everybody, Can someone please build xcircuit on KDE and check whether the crash happens? The entire thread can be found in link 1. It refers to a bug[2] reported in Launchpad on Ubuntu and as Chitlesh mentioned before "a blocker" :P for the latest upstream version to enter the Fedora repos. [1] http://www.opencircuitdesign.com/pipermail/xcircuit-dev/2008/000387.html [2] https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xcircuit/+bug/134617 Thanks in Advance. -- Aanjhan ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Tim Edwards <tim(a)opencircuitdesign.com> Date: Mon, Aug 11, 2008 at 8:26 AM Subject: Re: [Xcircuit-dev] Seg faults when opening Library window To: Aanjhan R <aanjhan(a)gmail.com> Dear Aanjhan, > A hint I got is that the program crashes before > it reaches the "else" condition that is changed. Is that of any > significance? Yes, that's certainly significant. However, I cannot get the program to crash on my computer, and I can't figure out the sequence of events leading up to the crash. The program crashes when the mouse motion event handler is called. Apparently at that time, the memory location of the wire has become invalid, even though the startcatalog() routine has not yet been called. This is probably due to the window manager making X event calls, which may happen differently on your system than on mine. Tomorrow when I get my desktop computer back, I will try to reproduce the error under the gnome desktop, and see if that makes a difference. It may be necessary to force cancellation of mouse motion event handler callbacks in a different place. I'll let you know tomorrow or Tuesday if I can reproduce the crash on any computer that I have available.

[Fedora-electronic-lab-list] Alliance bug 368441 fixed!
by Aanjhan R 06 Aug '08

06 Aug '08

Hi Folks, The Alliance bug #368441 [1] is fixed now with the updates provided by lesstif maintainers in response to the bug #457469 [2]. Koji build [3] is also successful with this update. Now, is it that this build automatically gets archived into the rawhide repos or is there something else one has to do ? What about updates to current and past Fedora releases? (Lesstif folks have update till Fedora 8 the fixes)? I would be glad to help with these too.

by Chitlesh GOORAH 06 Aug '08

Hello Release engineers, As the CC: maintainer of gspiceui, I'm requesting the deletion (as soon as possible) of gspiceui-0.9.65-2.fc10.ppc64 in PPC64, because it's dependency gwave is not present for the PPC64 arch. Thanks, Kind Regards, Chitlesh
