Changes to 'f10-branch'
by Jeremy Katz 21 Apr '09

21 Apr '09

New branch 'f10-branch' available with the following commits: commit b10873be21ee4c64633db3134791b7676d637d0a Author: Jeremy Katz <katzj(a)redhat.com> Date: Thu Apr 2 16:57:13 2009 -0400 [BACKPORT] Use our syslinux's menu com32 modules (#492370) com32 modules in syslinux don't seem to have a consistent API, so let's workaround it by copying in the menu files from our syslinux when doing livecd-iso-to-disk. This is kind of kludgey, really :/ commit 3eb1a55398ec447d3e7c6ce5555f39320437f47d Author: Jeremy Katz <katzj(a)redhat.com> Date: Mon Mar 2 20:39:36 2009 -0500 Support syslinux having moved to /usr/share commit f158bdc7e3c107ff081afe3ac077ea6f0222a411 Author: Felix Schwarz <felix.schwarz(a)oss.schwarz.eu> Date: Sat Feb 7 12:01:30 2009 +0100 Patch for unicode error messages when I tried to build a custom live cd I noticed some problems in the error reporting when there were unicode error messages (e.g. some dependency was missing). Example: ... > anaconda-11.4.1.63-1.i386 von updates hat Abhängigkeitsauflöse-Probleme > --> Fehlende Abhängigkeit: booty wird benötigt von Paket anaconda-11.4.1.63-1.i386 (updates) > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "./tools/livecd-creator", line 140, in <module> > sys.exit(main()) > File "./tools/livecd-creator", line 132, in main > logging.error("Error creating Live CD : %s" % e) > UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe4' in position 42: ordinal not in range(128) My patch ensures that unicode error messages can be printed correctly every time. To get 100% unicode support, one should go through all log calls and ensure that all strings are unicode so that localized error messages are always shown correctly. With my patch, there should be no unicode exceptions anymore, even when the error message may be printed as 'Fehlende Abh\xe4ngigkeit' instead of 'Fehlende Abhängigkeit' (notice the '\xe4' in the first string). commit 52975f7527af30ddcbcb4b51add6bc82b8a44873 Author: Alan Pevec <apevec(a)redhat.com> Date: Sun Dec 7 22:08:01 2008 +0100 fix device command version check F8_Device is a FC3_Device subclass, so isinstance was always true Signed-off-by: Alan Pevec <apevec(a)redhat.com> commit 48ff59689082cc6217b1cf4fd01bdca242f2fc61 Author: Jeremy Katz <katzj(a)redhat.com> Date: Mon Nov 24 09:50:58 2008 -0500 Shell escaping commit 83373b045a24e223b1f56fa3dc509603fafe522e Author: Bryan Kearney <bkearney(a)redhat.com> Date: Wed Nov 19 12:50:35 2008 -0500 Fix macro name for excludedocs commit e44f9af68ba48117d64da1895f42c79d1d42f1a6 Author: Jeremy Katz <katzj(a)redhat.com> Date: Sun Nov 16 19:55:14 2008 -0500 Fix up --base-on (#471656)

Very basic question.
by Mick M. 17 Apr '09

17 Apr '09

Hi; I have been reading this list for a while. Is there a how-to or webpage for this group? I see people writing patches, but not how or where to apply them. What goes where? where did it come from? I am running F10 KDE. What file do I download, to where? Then how do you run patch? (the man page is confusing) I can program in C (dos 6 days). I just need to know how to get started. Thanks Mick M.

brasero-nautilus on live rawhide
by Williamson Grant 15 Apr '09

15 Apr '09

Hi, any one else seeing issues logging in to livecd when brasero-nautilus is installed. I am seeing a crash when gnome session starts. I see this on both i386 & x86_64 live media. Packages :- livecd-tools-022-1.fc11.i586.rpm brasero-libs-2.26.0-1.fc11.i586.rpm brasero-nautilus-2.26.0-1.fc11.i586.rpm This is on Fedora 11 rawhide,. Other things observed when I install from cd to disk, I no longer see the issue. removing brasero-nautilus solves the problem.
