No. People that know about different desktop are able to find them, but showing a list of spins to new users that cannot make an informed decision would just confuse them. Ah, the standard question and the standard answer in the ever recurring thread (no offense!). Let me continue with the typical follow up so we don't break the balance in the galactic symmetry: The Fedora board clarified the vision statement and the user base back in 2009 [1]. Accordingly, Fedora targets: - Voluntary Linux consumer - Computer-friendly - Likely collaborator - General productivity user Well... Users with such characteristics will likely not get confused by a list of spin choices. User that don't get confused can and will find the list anyway (or probably will use the DVD and select the desktop of their choice). So why make it harder for one type of users to save the other type one click? Does not sound like a worthy trade off to me. I feel urged to finish with another standard proposal: Why don't we rotate the default desktop spin on each release between the major DEs? Because that's nonsense. Changing the default every release makes us look incompetent. Also I don't see what kind of problem such a rotation is going to solve. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

I'm concerned that in the effort to sync with cups-1.6 and upstream, mostly just the mechanics of finding a printer and getting a page out are being tested. This is just scratching the surface. How are you going to evaluate quality? I'm concerned about the rasterization changes, the filter changes. Hopefully 1.6 may solve some of the image-quality regressions I've been seeing. 'How to test' needs to be enhanced, yes. 4) In the past, I've found it difficult to debug cups filters step by step. Especially with so many rasterization/filter changes. As part of the move to 1.6, will things like: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_debug_printing_problems be updated? These instructions are still valid with cups-1.6 cups-filters. I would love it if issues like what driver am I using could be re-integrated into the UI, or perhaps an admin level of the ui. Also, what filters did I run to get to this point of output in a log file. What UI do you have in mind ? system-config-printer ? Will the running cups filters by hand thing be updated? Maybe later when we have 1.6 in all releases. I don't see a reason at the moment. The example there is just an example and what filters are run depends on the PPD. 5) integration with common printing dialog. (IMHO localhost:631). I think integrating Fedora's print dialogs with the wider user communities on macos and ubuntu would be very useful. Not sure what you mean with Fedora's.

Ideally, VoIP should be fully federated, with no central provider other than perhaps the DNS. This feature aims to bring that vision closer to reality, by making it easier to start a SIP proxy in federated mode, using TLS by default for security/identity of external peers and benefiting from ENUM for legacy phone numbers. ___ devel-announce mailing list devel-annou...@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel-announce -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

But this requires to know the syntax of iptables and the rules are not permanent. With the rich language more complex firewall rules can be created in an easy to understand way. The language will use keywords with (sometimes multiple) values and will be an abstract representation of ip*tables and ebtables rules. Services and zones can be configured using this language, the current configuration will still be supported. A mixture of the old and new configuration of services and zones might be possible, but this needs to be verified. With the possibility to use the rich language in services and zones, the configuration will also be permanent. The configuration with files will be available for Fedora 19.

Thus traffic from one or more VMs can be combined and sent out of the machine via the physical interface. This setup is currently done either manually using ifcfg files and ifup/ifdown, or by a tool like libvirt/netcf.

Re: Proposed F19 Feature: New firstboot
Hi, the this should be not a problem. The intended logic here is requiring enabled root OR user(s). We might add ssh keys as a valid option if needed too (but I am not sure about entering the key, typing it manually is probably not a good idea). Moreover, initial-setup has a working quit button. Martin - Original Message - From: Stephen Gallagher sgall...@redhat.com That said, the current firstboot allows you to just walk through and skip user creation, last I checked. So I'm not sure why you need to cancel it. If you just don't enter anything in the username and password fields, it doesn't stop you. Exactly right, and that's all I'm asking for out of the new firstboot -- preferably with a keystroke or click from the initial firstboot dialog. I just want to avoid what happened for a few old Fedora releases (10-13 ish) where you were not allowed to skip user creation/joining a domain short of having to go out out of your way by booting into a non-default run-level, removing firstboot, etc. -- John Florian -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Static Analysis: tweaks to data model and added cpychecker support
Short version: Updates to mock-with-analysis [1]: (a) changes to the data model (b) cpychecker support added Longer version: I've been hacking on mock-with-analysis, my tool for running static code analysis as a side-effect within a regular srpm rebuild (see [1]). I've tweaked the data model (the firehose XML format [2]): before, we were outputting one XML file every time an analysis tool found a problem. This approach doesn't capture coverage: we wouldn't know which tools were run on which code. So I've reworked things so that each XML file represents a run of an analysis tool on a source file, and contains zero or more issues (all in a common XML format). It also can contain stats e.g. the wall-clock time of how long the analysis tool on that file. We probably should extend it to capture other metadata like what arguments were passed to GCC (e.g. the -W options). I've also been working on the cpychecker analyser [3] that's part of my gcc-python-plugin. This is an analyzer for C code. It looks for common mistakes in usage of the CPython extension API, such as reference-counting bugs. The firehose branch of the gcc-python-plugin [4] now uses the firehose Python API as the internal representation format within cpychecker, and can thus natively emit XML files in our format, and I've hooked it up in mock-with-analysis so it gets run on all C code. So the mock-with-analysis prototype now has the following run in a mock build: * cppcheck * clang-analyzer * gcc warnings * cpychecker You can see an example of the output here: http://fedorapeople.org/~dmalcolm/static-analysis/2013-01-30/python-ethtool-0.7-4.fc19.src.rpm/ As before, it's the results from mock, with a new static-analysis directory containing XML result files, and any source files mentioned in the results (grep for FAKE-GCC in the build.log to see copious debug spew from the analysis tools). The raw XML results can be seen here: http://fedorapeople.org/~dmalcolm/static-analysis/2013-01-30/python-ethtool-0.7-4.fc19.src.rpm/static-analysis/reports/ though most of them are empty (most source files had no issues). To make things slightly easier to read, I wrote a primitive HTML summarizer, and you can see the (ugly) result here: http://fedorapeople.org/~dmalcolm/static-analysis/2013-01-30/python-ethtool-0.7-4.fc19.src.rpm/ugly-summary.html Note though that this output is really just for debugging. (In particular, it's violating my #1 UI requirement, which is that any time I see an analysis report, I want to also see the *code* so that a developer can easily determine if she needs to act on the report - though the sources have been captured - it's just a case of writing a nice UI to this). (Note that this version of cpychecker can emit reports showing a trace of execution needed to reach certain error, and this makes it into the XML - it's just that no such errors were present in this rpm). Next steps are to try running it on more packages, to make things more robust, and to build a good UI (e.g. to present a comparative view of two builds: what new warnings appeared? etc). If you're interested in getting involved, I've started making a list of things to try here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/StaticAnalysis#Tasks_seeking_volunteers Dave [1] see http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-January/176872.html and https://github.com/fedora-static-analysis/mock-with-analysis [2] https://github.com/fedora-static-analysis/firehose [3] https://gcc-python-plugin.readthedocs.org/en/latest/cpychecker.html [4] http://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/gcc-python-plugin.git/log/?h=firehose -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Bridging is commonly used to connect Virtual Machines to the outside world; a bridge interface is created, to which a physical interface (typically ethernet) is assigned as a slave, and a virtual interface (typically TAP) is created and also assigned to the bridge as a slave, and then given to the Virtual Machine. Thus traffic from one or more VMs can be combined and sent out of the machine via the physical interface. This setup is currently done either manually using ifcfg files and ifup/ifdown, or by a tool like libvirt/netcf.

There are projects that handle every bug report, and publish about bi-weekly bug fix updates in Fedora. There are also projects in which some members are quite public about never looking at the Fedora bugzilla mail.

Re: Proposed F19 Feature: CUPS 1.6
Thanks! 3) in how to test there is no mention of print quality regressions. I'm concerned that in the effort to sync with cups-1.6 and upstream, mostly just the mechanics of finding a printer and getting a page out are being tested. This is just scratching the surface. How are you going to evaluate quality? I'm concerned about the rasterization changes, the filter changes. Hopefully 1.6 may solve some of the image-quality regressions I've been seeing. 'How to test' needs to be enhanced, yes. 4) In the past, I've found it difficult to debug cups filters step by step. Especially with so many rasterization/filter changes. As part of the move to 1.6, will things like: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_debug_printing_problems be updated? These instructions are still valid with cups-1.6 cups-filters. I would love it if issues like what driver am I using could be re-integrated into the UI, or perhaps an admin level of the ui. Also, what filters did I run to get to this point of output in a log file. What UI do you have in mind ? system-config-printer ? No. I find system-config-printer cannot correctly render or otherwise limits many parts of these more complicated drivers. YMMV. I always end up going to the current cups universal interface, ie localhost:631. Say for print quality, I would check output against the following print queues. - whatever default thing Fedora suggests - whatever additional thing suggested via additional FOSS filters - stock pdfraster via ghostscript/cairo - espr raster (compat with Apple output) My questions, rephrased are: 1. How do I set this up on the GUI? How do I set this up on the TUI? Do the GUI/TUI/WebUI's sync? 2. If I have a test file, and want to print it on all the above configs on the same printer in the same setup to test quality, how do I do it? (Or any multi-config setup) How do I log the filter steps so I can pinpoint quality errors?

Nothing wrong with that except that in a distro there is also perl-IO-Compress-2.058-1.fc18.noarch, dated Tue 13 Nov 2012 which says: The following modules used to be distributed separately, but are now included with the IO-Compress distribution: * Compress-Zlib * IO-Compress-Zlib * IO-Compress-Bzip2 * IO-Compress-Base Due to versions the later is currently installed but quite possibly this ordering may flip in the future. So which of these should be there? It is not likely that a presence of all variations was really intended. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): perl-5.16.2-237.fc18 perl-IO-Compress-2.058-1.fc18 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Re: Proposed F19 Feature: CUPS 1.6
On Jan 29, 2013, at 11:10 AM, Benjamin De Kosnik b...@redhat.com wrote: This is just scratching the surface. How are you going to evaluate quality? I'm concerned about the rasterization changes, the filter changes. Hopefully 1.6 may solve some of the image-quality regressions I've been seeing. Quality evaluation needs test targets/documents, and eyeballs. Many test targets are free or easily produced and could be CC0 licensed or something reasonable. This is something I've briefly discussed with Richard Hughes, and also participants in OpenICC, that are needed not just for print, but also for display. Perhaps some OpenICC and OpenPrinting collaboration is appropriate for acquiring test metrics. Since CUPS itself doesn't rasterize, I don't expect you'd see changes in this area; but if there are filter changes, or an application decides to produce PDF job instead of PostScript, then it's possible, but probably not intended. If there are features or effects that need to be performed on a job after the application has produced the job, there are advantages to doing this on PDF than PostScript. But my expectation is even applications that today still use PostScript, they would be subject to the pstopdf filter, which in turn defers to Ghostscript on linux (Quartz2D by default on OS X) to turn it into a PDF. Such normalization of postscript to pdf is something that's been going on for many years, and is well tested (with many bug carcasses along the way). 4) In the past, I've found it difficult to debug cups filters step by step. Especially with so many rasterization/filter changes. Yes this is tedious. Figuring out the sequence for a job isn't so difficult. But in case of problems, it would be useful to break the sequence, i.e. get access to the print job in a particular state in between filters. I've got some material on how to do this, for the purposes of troubleshooting the OS X print pipeline which of course uses CUPS, but different print drivers, raster engine, and color management philosophy. be updated? I would love it if issues like what driver am I using could be re-integrated into the UI, or perhaps an admin level of the ui. Also, what filters did I run to get to this point of output in a log file. This is useful. At least on OS X each PDF print job also has a job ticket. I think this is a CUPS thing. Even once the job is complete, and the original document and raster files are deleted, the job ticket remains and it should contain all of this information. Making it more readable somehow might be useful. 5) integration with common printing dialog. (IMHO localhost:631). I think integrating Fedora's print dialogs with the wider user communities on macos and ubuntu would be very useful. I'm not sure what common printing dialog refers to here. If it's the CPD, that's dead as far as I know, unless it's been raised in the last 2 months. As for using Mac OS as a model for print dialogs, I'm happy to discuss exactly what areas I think this is useful and areas it's to be avoided. OS X for professional printing is nothing short of a clusterf|ck. It has been a huge PITA for me for ~8 years. Central to this problem is color, but also rather significantly is the UI/UX. We get *two* print dialogs for every print job with such applications due to lack of integration between the OS dialog and the application dialog. So we get an application dialog, and then later get an OS dialog, and they each contain mutually exclusive features, or settings that conflict between application and the OS. And the arbitration and assumption for this is not great, and not well documented. And this is aside from the separate interactions that occur with the print driver which does integrate with the OS dialog, but can itself have settings that conflict with the OS, or the application. The UI/UX part isn't much different on Windows, but the color management ideology is, and that actually helps rather significantly for those who actually care about such things. So the hopeful idea is to mimic the successes of these companies, and avoid the mistakes. Should be easy. Ha!

ARM arches in F19 and forward.
Hi all, This is just a note for a wider audience. the Fedora ARM has dropped support for software floating point going forward, we will only be building hardware floating point binaries from Fedora 19 on. it was discussed at FUDCon and on the arm list the FUDCon notes https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Meetings/FUDCon_Lawrence_2013#Future show that we were going to look at having F19 be the last softfp supporting release after further thought and discussion we are dropping from F19 and F18 will be the last release supporting sfp so those with sfp only devices, which the only supported ones are kirkwood based devices like the guruplug will get software support for about 1 year more. The Raspberry Pi will be supported by the efforts at Seneca College with armv6hl it will support hardware floating point. Longer term we will start to support aarch64 Regards Dennis ___ devel-announce mailing list devel-annou...@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel-announce -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

using rpms for non-root installs
Hi, This may be a long shot, but I am interested in repackaging some RPMs (for example, some of the Globus packages in EPEL, as well as grid software that my group builds) such that the software in them may be installed by unprivileged users, or into a non-standard location such as an NFS share. I'd like to use existing RPMs, preferably binaries, as a starting point to avoid duplicating work. (Naturally a lot of post-install scripting would be needed to fix binaries such that they'd work with the path they were installed into). Have there been any projects with this goal in mind? Have any of you had experience with this sort of thing and have tips, tools, etc. that might help me out in this?

My personal take on this (just that everybody seems to have to have an opinion on this): a) one of the most important conclusions from the last ten years of using Linux and participating in similar discussions (BTW, I think we should really change default SMTP daemon to postfix) is that adult people don't argue about defaults. Newbies don't care and non-newbies are able to switch them. b) of course, my deep suspicion is that Cinnamon developers want to use this trollfest as an advertisement for the mere fact that Cinnamon exists. Yeah, it does. I admit. Can we just stop this nonsense now? Matěj -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
