Join us on irc.freenode.net in #fedora-meeting-2 for this important meeting, wherein we shall determine the readiness of the Fedora 20 Beta. This is the third attempt to release Fedora 20 Beta. Currently, RC5 is under validation, please help if you can [1]. Two new blocker bugs are proposed. Thursday, November 07, 2013 17:00 UTC (12 PM EST, 9 AM PST, 18:00 CET) (Beware of time change - now in the US!) Before each public release Development, QA and Release Engineering meet to determine if the release criteria are met for a particular release. This meeting is called the Go/No-Go Meeting. Verifying that the Release criteria are met is the responsibility of the QA Team. For more details about this meeting see: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Go_No_Go_Meeting In the meantime, keep an eye on the Fedora 20 Beta Blocker list: http://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/milestone/20/beta/buglist [1] https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/test/2013-November/118688.html ___ 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 Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct

F21 System Wide Change: Python 3.4
= Proposed System Wide Change: Python 3.4 = https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Python_3.4 Change owner(s): Slavek Kabrda bkab...@redhat.com Update the Python 3 stack in Fedora from Python 3.3 to Python 3.4. == Detailed description == Python 3.4 adds numerous features and optimizations. See the upstream notes at http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0429/#features-for-3-4 and http://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/3.4.html. == Scope == Compare with the Python 3.3 feature page [1]. We need to wait for Python 3.4 to reach feature freeze (planned for 3.4.0 beta 1: November 24, 2013), so that the bytecode format for .pyc files is frozen, together with the ABI for extension modules. At that point we can rebase python3 to the latest release candidate of that code. We would then need to rebuild all python 3 packages. See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Python3#Python_3_already_in_Fedora For bonus points, we ought to tell file and rpmlint about the new bytecode format for .pyc files. Note that the suffix of some files should change, and this may require slight packaging tweaks in the various packages that ship Python 3 code: * bytecode files changing from .cpython-33.pyc (and .cpython-33.pyo) to .cpython-34.pyc (and .cpython-34.pyo) * extension modules changing from .cpython-33m.so to .cpython-34m.so and .cpython-33dm.so to .cpython-34dm.so Notes about porting from Python 3.3 can be found at http://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/3.4.html#porting-to-python-3-4. Proposal owners: This change is isolated to Python 3 stack, which is not yet crucial for Fedora. Still, as the time of moving Fedora to Python 3 is hopefully approaching, we need to do this very cautiously. I will prepare Python 3.4 prerelease RPMs in a private repo and will do a test rebuild of all Python 3 dependent packages, filing bugs/sending patches to upstreams. This will give us a good notion of how drastic this change will be and whether or not we really want to undergo it. Overall, the change should have roughly this schedule: * After change is accepted: Start building Python 3.4 prereleases in a private repo, continuously upgrading with latest upstream prerelease versions. * November 24, 2013 (3.4.0 beta 1: feature freeze): Start rebuilding Python 3 dependent packages in the repo. * February 23, 2014 (3.4.0 final) If everything goes well (meaning that all essential packages in Fedora build and work with Python 3.4) up to this point, merge into F21. Other developers: I'll gladly accept any help with rebuilding/porting/patching/bug reporting of dependent packages as well as suggestions for Python 3.4 packaging itself. When we're sure that we really want to do the transition, it'd be great if package owners rebuilt their packages themselves. Release engineering: Nothing. Policies and guidelines: None.

Consequences of library bundling (was: Re: OpenH264 in Fedora)
On 11/06/2013 08:52 PM, Adam Jackson wrote: Again: don't stop the solution short based on what the current code happens to implement. If we're building the bundles - and there's reasons we would want to - then we know the patches we need to apply. Despite significant efforts, we still have some trouble doing precisely that in the current environment. Ensuring that critical changes are applied to all relevant branches pretty much relies on individual developer effort and attention. From a birds-eye view, we perform bundling at the distribution level. Carrying patches back and forth is not easy. We've been dealing with this for a decade or more, yet supporting technology is still scarce. This has little to do with RPM and its limitations because it's about making sure that dist-git (both Fedora and further downstream) have the required or best possible versions of the code base. At this stage, the lack of multiple RPM database, multiple versions of the same package, etc. does not come into play. There are some constraints due to the processes involved, but everyone is free to use the data that is just out there and start their own side project to tackle this problem. Yet this hasn't happened. There have been some research efforts, but nothing came out of that which actually had a chance of integration. (Other distributions face the same challenge.) That's why I'm fairly convinced that the delivery mechanism isn't holding back a solution.

This is very early release (following release early, release often). First of all, this service works in simple set-up, where resulting yum repos are *not* backed up. Yet. This is not yet officially part of Fedora infrastructure, so when Copr fails, it can take several hours to be restored. And yes, our WebUI is not perfect. It's work in progress. And since Copr can build packages already, I decided to publicly announce it, so you can experiment with it.

Re: Draft Product Description for Fedora Workstation
Le Mer 6 novembre 2013 19:24, Josh Boyer a écrit : I'm just having trouble wrapping my head around the intense focus on a new app packaging technology when the entire distro is making massive changes to how it's produced. Because all distributions can and do ship the same software and the main thing that differences distributions is attention to packaging. What build the Fedora brand is in huge part the hard work of packagers over the years and careful definition of packaging guidelines. There have been many people that claimed this process was awful in the past and their alternatives all sank. Mainly because they were addressing developer problems (freedom to take all the shortcuts that make integration hard and users miserable) and thought they would win marketshare this way (hint: you do not win marketshare by solving developer problems you win marketshare by solving user problems. Users always voted with their feet and rejected the developer-friendly solutions that made their own life harder). So what makes this initiative different? I guess that's because it promotes itself as making it possible to get software in Fedora, competing with and disparaging the work of packagers while hijacking the brand they helped building. Get this thing its own name. Let it win or lose user confidence on its own merit, and don't confuse users with in Fedora claims when you're absolutely *not* offering the same thing in Fedora means now. Right now this proposal has the potential to ruin user trust and become the same thorn nvidia drivers are for xorg and kernel people now. Of course people who build this trust do not like it.

Because all distributions can and do ship the same software and the main thing that differences distributions is attention to packaging. What build the Fedora brand is in huge part the hard work of packagers over the years and careful definition of packaging guidelines. I think you missed the point of my question. It might have been too subtle. It wasn't what is wrong with sandboxed/containerized apps?. See the follow ups. There have been many people that claimed this process was awful in the past and their alternatives all sank. Mainly because they were addressing developer problems (freedom to take all the shortcuts that make integration hard and users miserable) and thought they would win marketshare this way (hint: you do not win marketshare by solving developer problems you win marketshare by solving user problems. Users always voted with their feet and rejected the developer-friendly solutions that made their own life harder). Users want apps. Developers are increasingly not caring at all about distros. I think there's a middle ground to be had here. As I've said before, just saying this is bad without even thinking about if it has some positives and how it could work just seems shortsighted. So what makes this initiative different? I guess that's because it promotes itself as making it possible to get software in Fedora, competing with and disparaging the work of packagers while hijacking the brand they helped building. Get this thing its own name. Let it win or lose user confidence on its own merit, and don't confuse users with in Fedora claims when you're absolutely *not* offering the same thing in Fedora means now. And yet, now we have Coprs. Which lets people easily upload unreviewed, possibly bundled application SRPMs for easy distribution outside of the main Fedora repos. Everyone seems to think Coprs are awesome, but they can be used for the same things you deride containerized apps for. Right now this proposal has the potential to ruin user trust and become the same thorn nvidia drivers are for xorg and kernel people now. Of course people who build this trust do not like it.

Where's the benefit of creating a handful of workgroups that now have some sort of power over the distribution? After reading all of the emails in the past week I have yet to see any benefits of this Fedora.next process. I agree Fedora needs to continue to evolve, but this process appears to shake the foundations of Fedora. Specifics: Different kernels per product, app sandboxing (lib bundling). Will the DVD/Live ISOs currently created cease to exist F21+? Fragmentation of Fedora into Cloud/Workstation/Server products? I'm just randomly spitting out ideas in my head that come to mind, but you cannot expect that silence equates to agreement in your favor. It strikes me as odd at the large number of @redhat accounts and small number of non-@redhat accounts in favor of this new process. Who is in charge of evolving Fedora at this point? I do value Red Hat involvement, but I don't want the common myth of Fedora = Red Hat beta to become a fact.

Re: Draft Product Description for Fedora Workstation
Hi Frank, They will, although in some sense I am the wrong person to ask this question as it will be up to the people developing and packaging these DE's just like it is now. The difference from today here though will be that there will be some requirements for being available for the workstation as the PRD states. The main one here that I foresee is that you can't conflict in terms of library requirements or binary names with the standard desktop of the workstation. I don't think that has been a big problem historically so it will likely have minimal impact, but it is now going to be a formal requirement as the PRD currently stands. I expect there will be other requirements defined too, but I want to make it clear that the goals of these requirements is not to make it impossible or even hard to package alternative DEs for the workstation. But what it will mean is that for instance it will be 100% clear that the responsibility to stay available rests on the alternative DEs packagers and developers and not on the core product developers. Of course with this also comes extra responsibility of the Workstation working group to ensure that development plans are shared as early as possible, to give everyone a chance to port over in time (ref. the recent Bluez discussion). But it all comes back to what I mentioned in an earlier email. The 3 products is a attempt at moving from primarily packaging upstream projects, to having concrete independent development targets for each product and to have engineers work on those independently of upstream priorities. So in some sense when people install alternative DEs that will to some degree mean that they are no longer using the Workstation as at least a subset of the features developed and announced as the big new features of a given release will not be available simply because they where features implemented or bugs fixed in the primary desktop. That is of course not specific to the Workstation product.

Hello, I have recently joined the Red Hat Security Technologies Team, and will help co-maintain the gnutls and nettle packages. My primary area of focus is security and cryptography and I'm working on few such projects (e.g. gnutls). I'd also like to bring in ocserv [0], an SSL VPN server. I hope there will be someone interested in reviewing and give feedback.

Re: unaccessability
Hi, The core principle of the installer is that it operates on an application level and not a package level. The current way it determines if something is an application is by looking for a .desktop file. So in theory you could put a bitchx.desktop file into the bitchx package and it would appear in the installer. That said I don't think it is generally a bad idea if command line/terminal applications are installed from the command line, but there is no hard policy blocking such applications from making themselves available in the installer.

It might be a good idea to rethink this strategy. I don't have a problem with using yum but I am not going to fire up the installer just for gui packages and fall back to command line to install command line applications. It is a confusing approach. Perhaps instead of ignoring them entirely, you can just sort the results or having a secondary view Click here for command line applications that match your search results etc can be considered. Rahul A thought as we move into the future: if we continue with the installer, end users may one day forget about the yum command and all the awesome packages out there; they may forget about the command line altogether.

I think it is a basic requirement for students (at least for me). Maybe we should add a that a student should be able to play videos and listen to music. It should be easy to install required codes (free/nonfree/patente) if they are available in the repositories (yes, I mean rpmfusion) This would require approval beyond the WG, as it goes against Fedora's policies. Note, I am not saying you are incorrect, just that it's a conversation to be had elsewhere first. Ensuring that it's possible/easy to install plugins from third party repositories when appropriate if those third party repositories are defined is not, I don't believe, against any policies, or we could not have the automatic codec installation mechanisms in Totem and Rhythmbox. (Which, as I read it, is the kind of thing this comment was about). The codec search only works if you have repositories configured that have packages that match the Provides (as far as I understand). Fedora policy says that we do not promote or install such repositories. This is the don't talk about RPMFusion rule. So sure, we can have software that will pull things in if the user has done some manual intervention. We just cant, currently, do that thing for them. Right, that's exactly what I was saying. I just think this is all the _original poster_ was talking about, not any kind of automatic configuration of such repositories. (Or at least, you can read it that way). OK. I guess that's fine, but it seems like a non-goal to me. I mean, it already works that way. All adding it to the PRD would do would make an easy thing to check off the list as met. I suppose we should go back to the OP and ask for clarification of exactly what the idea was, at this point :) All I was asking for is the status quo. 3rd party repositories must be installed manually, but once they are installed automated codec installation should work. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct

Re: unaccessability
Well the installer is work in progress and there are a lot of features missing still, and there are still questions that we need to figure out the answer to in terms of installing various things. We are trying to nail down the core design first before adding support for 'everything', but there will be the need for a .desktop file and an appdata file for anything that wants to be in. Maybe long term we want to filter terminal applications into a separate 'tab' or similar, but regardless of long term presentation if you maintain a package with a terminal application and want it to show up in the installer the solution is to create a .desktop file and a appdata file for it.

Fair enough but if you want all the applications (including command line ones) to include a appdata and desktop file, you would need a lot more time to get package maintainers and upstream to do that and filtering apps based on appdata for Fedora 21 would be premature until there is a public roadmap that gives enough time to get everyone on board.
