JN getcap Interesting. That's in the libcap package, which is sort of oddly named because it includes executables. And of course it's multilib, but the binaries are arch-specific which I believe is a multilib conflict. Probably needs the executables split out into a libcap-tools packages. I notice that rpm supports that %caps() directive in the %files list to specify capabilities. I don't recall seeing that before; how long ago did rpm grow support for it? It looks like it came in around rpm 4.7, so all supported Fedora releases have it. However, I'm certain it's not in RHEL4 and I'm pretty sure it's not in RHEL5 either, so at least the EPEL folks will need to make a note of it. Yup, rpm 4.7.0 was the first one to support file capabilities. It's use is tracked with rpmlib(FileCaps) dependency, making packages utilizing the feature uninstallable with any older rpm versions, and of course trying to build such packages on older versions will barf out with a errors. It should be possible to have EPEL define a macro that turns %caps(foo) into an %attr() with SUID bit set, but blindly enabling SUID bits might not be such a hot idea... - Panu - -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
Re: Building boo against mono-2.8 problem

Not sure how this is a problem. Boo.Lang.Extensions.dll is only shipped by the boo package, right? And rebuilding boo does *not* pull in the old version, so where's the conflict coming from? Boo itself. It looks like it tries to pull in Boo.Lang.Extensions from the gac if its there and build against that - but can't. I'm saying looks like as upstream aren't that forthcoming with information, just a workaround. Sure; I'm not surprised that the problem is with Boo itself, but how could it find Boo in the GAC if this is a pristine mock / Koji install?

[Test-Announce] Announcing 389 Directory Server 1.2.7 Alpha 3 for testing
The 389 team is pleased to announce the availability for testing of Alpha 3 of version 1.2.7. This release contains some new features as well as many bug fixes. On those platforms which have OpenLDAP built with Mozilla NSS crypto support (Fedora 14 and later), the packages are built with OpenLDAP instead of the Mozilla LDAP C SDK. WARNING: If you are upgrading from a previous 1.2.6 release candidate, you will need to run fixfiles to fix some SELinux AVCs, or directory server will not start. See bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=622882 To fix, run this: fixfiles -R 389-ds-base restore If you are upgrading from 1.2.5 or earlier, or a stable 1.2.6, there is no problem. WARNING: If you are upgrading from a 1.2.6 alpha or release candidate, you will need to manually fix your entryrdn index files. See http://port389.org/wiki/Subtree_Rename#warning:_upgrade_from_389_v1.2.6_.28a.3F.2C_rc1_.7E_rc6.29_to_v1.2.6_rc6_or_newer for more information. If you are upgrading from 1.2.5 or earlier, or a 1.2.6 stable release, there is no problem. The new packages and versions are: * 389-ds-base 1.2.7.a3 * 389-admin 1.1.12.a2 * 389-adminutil 1.1.13 * 389-dsgw 1.1.6 * perl-Mozilla-LDAP 1.5.3 (Fedora 14 and later) ***We need your help! Please help us test this software.*** It is an Alpha release, so it may have a few glitches, but it has been tested for regressions and for new feature bugs. The Fedora system requires that packages go into Testing until verified and pushed to Stable. The more testing we get, the faster we can release these packages to Stable.

Re: Default partitioning
On Thu, 28 Oct 2010, Javier Prats wrote: Hello Stephen, On a default Fedora installation using encryption and LVM it partitioned a 50GB drive giving 44GB to the root partition and only 4GB to /home. In most environments saving things to the root partition is avoided and it seems there is more than enough room for applications. This is the first distribution I've seen do this, but it's also the first time using encryption on partitions. This is very well ignorance on my part, but is there a reason for that being the default partitioning scheme? Here is the bug regarding the installer creating a /home partition: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=150670 And the commit: commit 1952a27de7bf47c4a8243662d6e606194eba002e Author: Chris Lumens clum...@redhat.com Date: Thu Oct 29 10:53:57 2009 -0400 Modify autopart requests to include a separate /home (#150670). This modifies the default partitioning as follows: (1) For VGs = 50 GB, we will continue to make swap and / as normal. (2) For VGs 50 GB, / will cap at 50 GB and /home will consume the rest. 50 GB is fairly arbitrary, and was based on the fact that an Everything install of Fedora right now is ~ 40 GB, plus some room for expansion. Very few users are likely to do an Everything install so this should provide plenty of space for upgrades and future growth. Additionally, this is only a default partitioning suggestion and can always be overridden by the user. We discussed how /home would be created during automatic partitioning and based on the feedback from many people, the above algorithm was determined. So, the odd 4GB /home in your case is most likely due to your disk being on the 50GB line.

Is it worth adding a warning when the available space is rather marginally small (in addition to the above suggestions)? i.e. Tell the user: The install will continue but the available space for user data and additional packages is limited - continue (yes/no)? -- mike c -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

One fix would be to remove the dependency on Mail::SpamAssassin completely from the perl-Mail-Box RPM, in which case, people who try to use spamassassin functionality in perl-Mail-Box will simply get an error because of the missing module and know they need to install spamassassin. Another fix would be to split the perl modules in spamassassin into a separate RPM, e.g., spamassassin-perl, so they can be installed without the rest of spamassassin. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. -- Fedora Extras Perl SIG http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/SIGs/Perl perl-devel mailing list perl-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/perl-devel
