You're not blaming Preupgrade for the partition being too small, are
you? If
you want a small root partition you should put /var/cache/yum on another
partition.

Do you mean Preupgrade didn't handle the lack of disk space well?

Bind mounts are fixed, as far as I know:

For NFS mounts, I believe it's fixed in commit
40728ffcc1e32eb6b5ccc0cd3b3ddb23216cf199, which was on June 7th. That
should
carry over NFS mounts listed in /etc/fstab if you are doing an upgrade.

Well, to my knowledge these are FIXED RAWHIDE, only.


* anaconda's depsolving failed when upgrading an FC10 + FC10-updates
system due to NEVR issues.


If you have any details of the failure, it would help.
Unfortunately no. I had not been involved into upgrading the system this 
had happened to from the beginning.


I was called to troubleshoot this upgrade. The situation I found was a 
partially upgraded system, stuck on upgrading yum due to a rpm conflict 
on yum itself. No idea how the person trying to upgrade managed to get 
into this situation.

 In addition there are four weeks in the Fedora 12 schedule for Alpha 
 (previously known as Beta) versus the three weeks in Fedora 11--this was 
 an oversight in the setting of the Fedora 11 schedule which did not 
 allow for three weekly snapshots.

Okay, the extra two weeks are to allow for (rel-eng?) people being
missing during plumbers and to allow for a third snapshot between alpha
and beta.

That makes sense on the face of it, but the end result for developers is
a release cycle split into a 49 day development period followed by a 99
day stablization period. That's quite conservative for a bleeding edge
distro.

Constructive suggestion for the next cycle - we should go back to a
shorter gap between Feature Freeze and GA.

Lack of perl(Glib::MakeHelper) module?

2009-07-27 Thread 梁穗隆
Now it is time to rebuild the packages for Fedora 12. I try to rebuild my
maintained package.

When I rebuild my perl-Gnome2-Wnck and perl-Goo-Canvas, it fails and shows
that it needs Glib::MakeHelper but it can not find. But in the past when I
submitted and build these two package, it is OK. I do not know whether
another perl module packages will meet this problem or not. As I see it, it
is possible that perl-Glib has a bug. But I can not make sure.

These are perl-Gnome2-Wnck and perl-Goo-Canvas build logs.
perl-Gnome2-Wnck:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=1523997name=build.log
perl-Goo-Canvas:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=1523891name=build.log


Is Glib::MakeHelper moved into perl-Glib-devel? But I think rpmbuild is able
to detect and add it into spec file automatically.

If it is really a bug, I will write a bug report on bugzilla.

At last, perl-Glib has announced 1.222 version. Please maintainer upgrade
it.

 You're not blaming Preupgrade for the partition being too small, are you?

 Well, to some extend, I am blaming it, because
 a) filling '/' may easily kill a system and may easily cause further damage
 (processes running in parallel to preupgrade might be malfunctioning due
 lack of diskspace).

 b) I expect an installer to be able to check whether sufficient space is
 available in advance, rsp. not to leave a system in an unusable state in
 case of something going wrong.

 In BZ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=503183
 I questioned whether using /var/cache/yum is a good choice for preupgrade's
 package cache. Though I meanwhile know that this BZ is was a side-effect of
 the nfs-parser bugs in anaconda, I still think using /root or /tmp would be
 better choices.

No, some people (me included) use tmpfs for /tmp , so this would
result into reboot, no packages found (if it did not hit a space
problem either).
/root is not supposed to be used by random apps.

 The basic idea goes something like this: We would like to do something to

 take cupsd to be a good case in point. If the attacker can find a vuln with

 prevent total compromise, but some people turn it off.)

We should put effort into improving SELinux rather than papering things 
over with new or previously discarded security schemes.

Capabilities are inherently problematic in that you can't meaningfully 
reason about overall system behavior with them.

e.g. what does CAP_SYS_ADMIN actually mean?

Here's where the symbol is found in the kernel source:
http://www.cs.fsu.edu/~baker/devices/lxr/http/ident?i=CAP_SYS_ADMIN

I challenge anyone to explain the boundary of privilege for any process 
which has this capability, and how the propagation of that privilege is 
bounded within the system as a whole.

We can do that with SELinux (in fact it's been somehwat designed for this 
purpose), and that's how we should approach the problem.

That's true.  anaconda is unique in that the only way a new one can be
released to fix installation issues for users is to generate new media.  If
the problem is confined to the second stage of the installer, we can put the
fix in to an updates.img.  We do this for common bugs when a release comes
out, but we cannot spend all of our time constantly releasing updates.img
files:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F11_bugs

We continue to fix problems reported against Fedora 11's anaconda in rawhide,
but for users needing the fix in the latest stable release, consider Fedora
Unity.  Fedora Unity generates new spins of the latest stable release
including backports of anaconda fixes:

http://www.fedoraunity.org/

No guarantees of what Fedora Unity contains, but I know they follow the
rawhide anaconda and pick out fixes that work for the latest stable release
and generate new installation media.  You also get the benefit of having all
current stable updates for F-11 rolled up in to the installation media.

Testing libsatsolver on Fedora

2009-07-27 Thread Michael Schroeder

Hi folks,

I'm the author of the libsatsolver library, a library solves
package dependencies with a SAT algorithm.
This library is currently used in SUSE by YaST/zypp. I'm currently
trying to make it less SUSE specific like adding support for package
coloring and different repo handling, but I'm pretty sure I didn't
catch all things where Fedora is different from SUSE.

To test things I've written a small application called solv that
works like a very tiny package manager. It's available via:

http://software.opensuse.org/search?baseproject=Fedora:11q=libsatsolver-demo

(To get the src rpm search for libsatsolver)

The package contains just a single file, /usr/bin/solv. It can
be run as normal user, but then the transaction can't be commited.
Also, the repository metadata caching mechanism needs write access
to /var/cache/solv. If it can't write there, it still works but
downloads the metadata again every time it is called.

So, if you have some spare time, could you give it a try and tell
me where it works well/ does stupid things/ doesn't work at all?

Thanks,
  Michael.

 Using the disttag can make it clearer that a package comes from epel as

 Er, I am not saying don't use dist, just that starting at 5%{?dist} instead
 of 1%{?dist} is completely fine.

Thanks for the advice; I'll leave it as 9-5%{?dist}.

(Sorry for any confusion - I wasn't going to remove %{?dist}.)

You're not blaming Preupgrade for the partition being too small, are you?


Well, to some extend, I am blaming it, because
a) filling '/' may easily kill a system and may easily cause further damage
(processes running in parallel to preupgrade might be malfunctioning due
lack of diskspace).

b) I expect an installer to be able to check whether sufficient space is
available in advance, rsp. not to leave a system in an unusable state in
case of something going wrong.

In BZ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=503183
I questioned whether using /var/cache/yum is a good choice for preupgrade's
package cache. Though I meanwhile know that this BZ is was a side-effect of
the nfs-parser bugs in anaconda, I still think using /root or /tmp would be
better choices.


No, some people (me included) use tmpfs for /tmp , so this would
result into reboot, no packages found (if it did not hit a space
problem either).

Your problem, if you are using a non-reboot persistant /tmp

On my machines, various subdirs of /var are nfs mounted and spread 
across a network.



/root is not supposed to be used by random apps.

This is not a random app permanently using a filesystem.

It is the user root running an application to set up a personal 
temporary filesystem to be used exclusively by him.

I don't care about the stuff in /tmp across reboots, and this has been

Well the best way to solve this is default to /var/cache/yum but make
it configureable for people that insists on another location.

Re: Testing libsatsolver on Fedora

2009-07-27 Thread Seth Vidal



On Mon, 27 Jul 2009, Michael Schroeder wrote:



Hi folks,

I'm the author of the libsatsolver library, a library solves
package dependencies with a SAT algorithm.
This library is currently used in SUSE by YaST/zypp. I'm currently
trying to make it less SUSE specific like adding support for package
coloring and different repo handling, but I'm pretty sure I didn't
catch all things where Fedora is different from SUSE.

To test things I've written a small application called solv that
works like a very tiny package manager. It's available via:

http://software.opensuse.org/search?baseproject=Fedora:11q=libsatsolver-demo

(To get the src rpm search for libsatsolver)

The package contains just a single file, /usr/bin/solv. It can
be run as normal user, but then the transaction can't be commited.
Also, the repository metadata caching mechanism needs write access
to /var/cache/solv. If it can't write there, it still works but
downloads the metadata again every time it is called.

So, if you have some spare time, could you give it a try and tell
me where it works well/ does stupid things/ doesn't work at all?



is libsatsolver supporting file deps as well?

Thanks!

# ls -l /bin/date

The file is 0755 and therefore is executable by anyone. DAC_OVERRIDE is not 
needed for anything but writing to the file as in yum update.

That would be a bad rule. The Apache example I posted only makes sense because 
Apache can be listening on pretty much any port anyway (every http deployment I

Hi all,

that's interesting, I have a question about the standard clipboard.
Highlighting some text in an app, may it be firefox, thunderbird,
tomboy, whatever and then pasting it to an existing xterm with middle
mouse button works. However if you open a new xterm _after_ you
highlighted some text the previously highlighted text is not being
pasted to the new xterm.

There might be some some security concerns I might not be thinking of
but it's not the behavior I would expect from a user perspective. What's
actually going on there?

Yes, it downloads filelists.xml.gz if a file dep is not matching the
standard filter regexps.

Btw, there are surprisingly many of such deps in fedora, like:

  /lib/lsb/init-functions
  /usr/include/infiniband/verbs.h
  /usr/lib/libz.so
  /usr/lib64/util-vserver/sigexec
  /usr/libexec/poker3d/underware

Re: Clipboard manager by default in Fedora 12

Seriously? Do you have any reference source for this information?

AFAIK, the real truth is that this behaviour is a a result of how X 
protocol is designed:

http://www.pixelbeat.org/docs/xclipboard.html

 Note it's the X application itself that maintains the storage for what 
it puts on the buffers, which makes a lot of sense when you think 
about it, especially considering X's network transparency. But that 
means when you close the application the content of the clipboard and 
selection buffer are lost.


You can get around this behaviour by using an external application to 
manage the storage for the clipboard, the standard one being xclipboard. 
Note this is the reason why it's awkward to get a command line program 
to paste to the clipboard. It has to fork and run until no longer 
required (someone else pastes to the clipboard). See xsel 
http://www.vergenet.net/%7Econrad/software/xsel/ for an example of this.

Re: Firewall rules using SELinux context (Was Re: RFE: FireKit)

 This is all fascinating conversation.  But the question still arises, 
 why can't anyone use SECMARK/IPTABLES rules on a Targeted policy system.  
 My opinion is that it is still too difficult.

Well, it's taken years to get all the basic technology into place 
(including CIPSO and Labeled IPSec), and no work at all has gone into 
usability as yet.

I envisage providing high-level abstractions in one of two ways:

a) Building network labeling into a project as a standard configurable 
aspect of that (e.g. virtualized secure networking for VM to VM 
communication), which is integrated into and managed by the existing 
management tool, like we have with sVirt.  No policy knowledge is 
required, just how to use e.g. virt-manager to configure sharing via the 
network.

b) Network design tools which let you visually design and manage protected 
communications paths between processes on different machines, e.g. for 
managing your DMZ.  This would generate policy and distribute it to 
systems on the network  really be something for advanced users, but 
domain-specific i.e. thinking in terms of network security vs. SELinux 
policy.

Note that there was never any intention for people to have to know the 
low-level SELinux policy (as far as I recall).  The high-level 
abstractions we're building with kiosk mode, svirt, sandbox etc. are some 
glimpses into where things are headed now that we have most of the base 
technology in place.

 We should put effort into improving SELinux rather than papering things 
 over with new or previously discarded security schemes.
 
 Capabilities are inherently problematic in that you can't meaningfully 
 reason about overall system behavior with them.
 
 e.g. what does CAP_SYS_ADMIN actually mean?
 
 Here's where the symbol is found in the kernel source:
 http://www.cs.fsu.edu/~baker/devices/lxr/http/ident?i=CAP_SYS_ADMIN
 
 I challenge anyone to explain the boundary of privilege for any process 
 which has this capability, and how the propagation of that privilege is 
 bounded within the system as a whole.
 
 We can do that with SELinux (in fact it's been somehwat designed for this 
 purpose), and that's how we should approach the problem.

I agree with this, with some caveats.

Capabilities are hard to reason about, and not just because they're
coarse-grained.  Practically speaking they don't get used, so kernel
developers are careless about picking the right capable() check for a
given action, since it ends up being a fancy way of checking
current-euid.

To pick a favorite example: CAP_SYS_RAWIO is documented to mean iopl,
ioperm, and /dev/kcore.  It actually means significantly more than
that.  It's effectively equivalent to root, though, because write access
to /dev/kcore means you can change your uid.  You might like it to mean
can do raw I/O to peripherals like the name suggests, but the one most
useful thing that could mean - r/w maps of PCI BARs - is covered under
CAP_SYS_ADMIN instead.  Which is not merely equivalent to root, but so
coarse that it's basically useless.  So it's hard for me to justify
trying to make X use capabilities, since I'm not meaningfully limiting
X's privileges in doing so.

Caps are also wrong in that they're effectively a partitioning of root's
privileges above those of a user.  You would like the ability to do more
than that.  For example, you'd like to be able to remove your ability to
clone() or exec().  SELinux can do this, kinda.

And, of course, at an implementation level caps are just a dword
bitmask, which is not nearly enough granularity.

However, the inheritance model is _not_ hard to reason about.  I find it
slightly easier to understand than selinux transitions, in fact.  And
capabilities have the notable advantage of being something I can drop
for myself when I don't need them, a safety model I'm used to from
setuid.  I would like to use SELinux as a defensive development
practice, but I'm not aware of any good way to do so.  All I have is the
hope that the user is running with the policy enabled.

I just wanted to drop a note saying that it was happening, the agenda

Fedora Packaging Committee Seat Filled

2009-07-27 Thread Tom spot Callaway
Thanks to everyone who applied for this open seat. We got a lot of very
qualified individuals who were interested in filling the open seat on
the Fedora Packaging Committee. After much
discussion and thought, I've asked Jon Ciesla to fill the open seat and
he has accepted.

I'm sure that we will have additional openings on the FPC in the future,
as people move on to other tasks, or get committed to various mental
institutions. ;) Please feel free to throw your name in the ring for
future openings!

A few points that I felt might be worth making:

* If you're not an active package maintainer in Fedora, it definitely
hurts your chances of being on the FPC, as we're always looking for
people who are intimately involved with Fedora packaging.
* If you haven't done many Fedora Package Reviews, it's a great way to
increase your visibility in the Fedora Packaging Community space, and
also is a good way to show us that you have a solid understanding of the
existing Fedora Packaging Guidelines. Plus, it helps us get new packages
into Fedora!

Thanks again to all who applied,

I don't think preupgrade is actually safe to use yet.


Preupgrade's process is to depsolve - using the same method anaconda
does, download the pkgs it solves out. Put them in a cachedir.
Download
a kernel and an initrd, Setup a ks.cfg. then reboot the machine and
allow anaconda to do the install.

You're not blaming Preupgrade for the partition being too small, are
you? If
you want a small root partition you should put /var/cache/yum on
another
partition.

Do you mean Preupgrade didn't handle the lack of disk space well?


* anaconda failing during reboots due not being able to process fstab
correctly (FC11's anaconda misparses fstab and is unable able to
process
bind-mounts nor nfs-mounts).


Bind mounts are fixed, as far as I know:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=496406

For NFS mounts, I believe it's fixed in commit
40728ffcc1e32eb6b5ccc0cd3b3ddb23216cf199, which was on June 7th. That
should
carry over NFS mounts listed in /etc/fstab if you are doing an upgrade.

Well, to my knowledge these are FIXED RAWHIDE, only.



That's true. anaconda is unique in that the only way a new one can be
released to fix installation issues for users is to generate new media.

Exactly = this bug is _not fixed_.



We continue to fix problems reported against Fedora 11's anaconda in
rawhide,
but for users needing the fix in the latest stable release, consider Fedora
Unity. Fedora Unity generates new spins of the latest stable release
including backports of anaconda fixes:

http://www.fedoraunity.org/
With all due respect to fedoraunity and you. To me it is a serious Fedora 
management and rel-eng mistake causing major harm to fedora's and RH's 
reputation to not provide updated media, thus to expose users to known bugs.


Openly said, I think this management mistake is one of the culprits for the 
poor shape of Fedora.


Another one is not having banned FIXED RAWHIDE/UPSTREAM.


The problem here is when do you stop generating new media to fix bugs in
F-11's installer and start working on F-12?  Never?  A week after F-11 GA?
What determines if an installer bug gets a fix in F-11 vs. not?

It's a gigantic waste of time for the installer team to release updates to
F-11's installer.  We can address those bugs in rawhide and have them fixed in
the next stable release.  Generating new media for an existing release is not
a great solution.  The mirrors are already synced up with the GA release.

Here's what we do and I think it works best for now given the incredibly short
(and damn near impossible to work with) planning and development windows for
Fedora releases:

1) Major installation problems are documented on the Common Bugs wiki page for
the Fedora release in question.  Either a workaround or updates.img file is
provided to fix the issue.

2) New bugs come in and we address them in rawhide.  Where we run in to issues
here is asking people to test the next build of rawhide.  Not everyone wants
to do that (or can, has time, etc).  But spending our time producing new media
and/or updates.img files for F-11 takes away from our time to work on F-12.
This is where I think Fedora Unity can bridge the gap.  They can pick up fixes
for F-11 installation problems and roll new media for users.  That provides a
non-rawhide solution for the reporter, lets the bug at least get some testing,
and frees us [installer team] from having to produce media or updates.img
files for F-11.

A larger problem we have is that we don't get the wide testing on the Alpha,
Beta, or Release Candidate releases of the upcoming Fedora release.  The same
group of people generally test things out and the QA team performs their
tests, but we never get the same testing exposure that a GA release does.
Most users are sitting around waiting for the GA release and when they find a
bug, it's too late for us to do anything about it in that release.

Maybe if we lengthened the development cycle for a Fedora release and renamed
Alpha, Beta, and RC to .0, .1, and .2, users would think differently of each
release.

Honestly, I always thought Fedora install images should be regenerated 
far more frequently.


I think back to my days as a Solaris sysadmin in the late 90's, where 
ordering the latest media kit (CD-ROM) from Sun meant I got a fresh 
installer, fresh kernel, and all recommended patches.


Even in the face of known Linux kernel bugs, people always seemed 
reluctant to regenerate the Fedora install images.  I think Fedora would 
better serve its users by being much more willing to update install 
images after initial release.

 Honestly, I always thought Fedora install images should be regenerated

 I think back to my days as a Solaris sysadmin in the late 90's, where  
 ordering the latest media kit (CD-ROM) from Sun meant I got a fresh  
 installer, fresh kernel, and all recommended patches.

And Sun was doing those media kits roughly every six to twelve months
from what I remember.  And our (major) release frequency is every six 
months, so ...

 Even in the face of known Linux kernel bugs, people always seemed  
 reluctant to regenerate the Fedora install images.  I think Fedora would  
 better serve its users by being much more willing to update install  
 images after initial release.

Regenerating the images is expensive -- it requires effort on the part
of the developers doing fixes, release engineering doing builds with the
fixes, QA testing the fixes, infrastructure (mirrors) carrying a
significant amount more bits[1], ... 

When our releases are at most six months apart, how much effort are we
willing to divert from the next release to make this happen?  It's not
going to happen for free.

fedora mini revisted

2009-07-27 Thread Peter Robinson
Hi All,

I'd like some thoughts, and some help so yes, I'm opening a can of worms :-)

A while a go jkatz put out a call about support for netbooks, and I
begun to step up and the idea behind Fedora Mini [1] was born before
being sidetracked by shiny things in the corner.

So I'd like to get things moving forward again, no matter how slowly,
for Fedora 12. At FudCon I started that moving [2] with the hope of
getting some form of support for Intel's Moblin [3] in F-12 and
there's a few package reviews [4] that I'd like some help with if
people have time to review them :-)

Moving forward I'd like to have some discussion about what people
would like out of Fedora Mini. What is the expectation of Fedora on a
NetBook/NetTop/MID style device? Is it worth having  separate mailing
list, or keeping the discussion on fedora-devel. My thoughts on that
last point are mixed. Moving it onto another list allows it to be
focused and while keeping the discussion clear of what ever the
current heated discussion is also keeps it clear of general mainstream
discussions where Fedora Mini can contribute or benefit.

My personal thoughts are it could be alot, whether it be a NetBook or
NetTop device like a eeePC, a mobile device based on the GNOME Mobile
stack, a set top box running elisa or a thin terminal running a web
broweser, voip client and some form of remote desktop technology.
I have 2 main Fedora Mini devices 1) OLPC XO and a eeePC so I can't
support it all so I'd like some help. I started to document some of
the NetBook hardware [5] and it would be great to get some form of
Hardware matrix together to see what's supported out of the box in
Fedora, what's supported through 3rd party repositories and what's,
well, not supported. Are people able to step up or help out here? My
wiki skills aren't the best and Fedora as a group probably has alot of
the Fedora Mini devices out there to document the hardware into as
nice I want a small device to do blah and I want it to run Fedora
what's my best option so we could probably do with one of the wiki
elite to do a basic working layout and to keep it sane and having
people with the various devices fill in the blanks.

So what do people want out of a Fedora Mini SIG?

Cheers,
Peter

BTW we have an irc channel at #fedora-mini. I'm on there most of the
time now and try to keep an eye on it as best I can while doing the
rest of my life so feel free to drop in and ask questions, I'll get to
them as I can :-)

I saw releases dated monthly, but I never saw releases that had actually

 They might have moved to quarterly in the 2000's, after the Internet

Except that the majority of our users don't do an install in that

 We should put effort into improving SELinux rather than papering things
 over with new or previously discarded security schemes.

 Capabilities are inherently problematic in that you can't meaningfully
 reason about overall system behavior with them.

 e.g. what does CAP_SYS_ADMIN actually mean?

 Here's where the symbol is found in the kernel source:
 http://www.cs.fsu.edu/~baker/devices/lxr/http/ident?i=CAP_SYS_ADMIN

 I challenge anyone to explain the boundary of privilege for any process
 which has this capability, and how the propagation of that privilege is
 bounded within the system as a whole.

 We can do that with SELinux (in fact it's been somehwat designed for this
 purpose), and that's how we should approach the problem.

 I agree with this, with some caveats.

 Capabilities are hard to reason about, and not just because they're
 coarse-grained.  Practically speaking they don't get used, so kernel
 developers are careless about picking the right capable() check for a
 given action, since it ends up being a fancy way of checking
 current-euid.

 To pick a favorite example: CAP_SYS_RAWIO is documented to mean iopl,
 ioperm, and /dev/kcore.  It actually means significantly more than
 that.  It's effectively equivalent to root, though, because write access
 to /dev/kcore means you can change your uid.  You might like it to mean
 can do raw I/O to peripherals like the name suggests, but the one most
 useful thing that could mean - r/w maps of PCI BARs - is covered under
 CAP_SYS_ADMIN instead.  Which is not merely equivalent to root, but so
 coarse that it's basically useless.  So it's hard for me to justify
 trying to make X use capabilities, since I'm not meaningfully limiting
 X's privileges in doing so.

 Caps are also wrong in that they're effectively a partitioning of root's
 privileges above those of a user.  You would like the ability to do more
 than that.  For example, you'd like to be able to remove your ability to
 clone() or exec().  SELinux can do this, kinda.

Put an example, thanks.

 And, of course, at an implementation level caps are just a dword
 bitmask, which is not nearly enough granularity.

 However, the inheritance model is _not_ hard to reason about.  I find it
 slightly easier to understand than selinux transitions, in fact.  And
 capabilities have the notable advantage of being something I can drop
 for myself when I don't need them, a safety model I'm used to from
 setuid.  I would like to use SELinux as a defensive development
 practice, but I'm not aware of any good way to do so.  All I have is the
 hope that the user is running with the policy enabled.

That means that you can take revisor, pungi or livecd-tools in your

That's good news. Thanks for doing it. Are these test packages available
publicly?


You'll have to ask Jeroen how he handles testing. Once he has a patchset
suitable for an F-11 update, he submits it for review and then we go from
there. The idea being that once we roll the update for F-11, he'll be ready
to pick it up and make images.



There a source repository online at:

- git://git.kanarip.com/anaconda, or
- http://git.kanarip.com/?p=anaconda

There's two YUM repositories online, and public;

- http://www.kanarip.com/anaconda/ - stable

- http://www.kanarip.com/anaconda-devel/ - unstable

The testing is handled by our very adequate friends in the test team of 
Fedora Unity.


Furthermore, by the time the updates are available in the official 
upstream repository, the product has already hit the streets.


It's the rest of the world that needs the update to be available in the 
official repositories; I can do what I want wrt. the Fedora Unity 
Re-Spins. However, I'm also upstream for that one other utility people 
use to Remix, Re-Spin, whathaveyou. To have them ask me again and again 
and again why things don't work, or why things can't be fixed, made me 
ship the stable anaconda fixes repository in every default Revisor 
configuration.


Now, I've requested anaconda commit access for stable branches since 
like forever, since the anaconda team does not want to touch these 
anymore, I've offered to be on the receiving end of bugs for these 
branches, so it wouldn't hit the upstream developers, I've requested GIT 
commit access years ago in order to be able to work with the upstream 
developers, but so far only David Cantrell and Hans de Goede are willing 
to help me. David pushes out an update to anaconda every now and then, 
and Hans reviews lists of commits I'm thinking about cherry-picking from 
rawhide to the stable fX-branch -because frankly that's all I do until 
I'm allowed to sink my teeth in it.

Hey, that's funny.

That's what I do.

Yes but I want in the official repository as an update. Fedora 11
Anaconda has been troublesome for many people due to the storage layer
rewrite. It would have been nice to avoid that issues in the first place
but since we are never going to be perfect, the next best thing would be
to push Anaconda updates into the repository so that people do images
with the updates rolled in can get it without going through Yet Another
Place.

Usually whenever I do a remix, one of the first questions I get is from
people who are using my kickstart file to do something slightly
different (change the package set, configuration et all). There is a
large number of people who would benefit from this.

Either Anaconda team has to do this by itself or if the workload is high
(which I assume it is), give other people commit access to push it into
the official repository as updates. Given that someone has volunteered
to do the work, our job would be to enable that to happen instead of
being a roadblock.  The need now is more than ever thanks to the growing
success of the push from the Fedora Project for spins and remixes.

OK, in which package can I find your mkimage script.



You mean /usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/mk-images (from the anaconda package)?


Well, this seems close. Any documentation?

notice how the mime type that is picked up is the wrong one ODF template

It is used for getting a user's info when you are not logged in similar
to the functionality of the bots in #fedora-devel.  Going to this link

works so the password change worked.

 lmacken and I realized that we probably hadn't changed Fedora

 production so I did that today.  But when I went to test it we
 couldn't
 figure out where it would actually be used::
 
   [10:00:02] lmacken abadger1999: hmm, I'm actually not sure if
 that
 account is getting used at all.  It looks like it is only used when
 the
 user is not logged in, but in that case they can't view users or
 anything FAS related as far as I can tell.  J5 would know for sure
 
 So, is the account being used?  If so how can I test that the
 password
 update worked okay?  If not, can we disable the account?

Re: AGPL Licensing: Another configuration file example

2009-07-27 Thread Ricky Zhou
On 2009-07-27 10:46:02 AM, Toshio Kuratomi wrote:
 This wsgi script also helps illustrate some of smooge's concerns about
 what happens when configuration information is mixed into a script.  It
 has two areas that differ between upstream's distribution and our own:
 
 The first is bad application design but I've seen this done frequently
 in PHP apps (and it sounds like Java frameworks like JBoss promote this
 as well).  The fact that our apps are doing it shows it can occur in any
 language although we should be able to change our apps to work around it
 fairly easily:
 
 The scripts that start up our web applications under mod_wsgi all seem
 to have a bit of config tweaking.  Historically, this is because we
 deployed with a start-app.py script that used the config file
 exclusively and started as a standalone daemon.  The app.wsgi script
 would load the standalone daemon config file and then make some config
 changes in the wsgi script before starting the application server.  This
 can be seen in the attached wsgi script in lines like this::
Another example of something that could be considered mixing code and
configuration in .wsgi files is the usage of WSGI middleware (in TG1 at
least, Toshio mentioned that things might be more cleanly separated in
TG2 now).  Right now, to add middleware to a TG1 application, we'd edit
the .wsgi to add code to wrap the application in middleware - it isn't
100% clear to us where this kind of change would fall from the license's
standpoint though.

Ricky
