Someone from Sun used to be the maintainer and noone is doing it

interested in packaging it afaik.

More specifically look at:

https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/java-devel/2010-November/003980.html

Reason nobody picked it up is that is has relatively big dependency
chain and there was nobody interested enough (from maintainer
perspective).

I have investigated the build process of NetBeans and I can just can go
along with the fact that its dependency chain is quite long.
Nevertheless I would like to reactivate it. If anyone is interested in
helping, feel free to contact me.

It seems like, that also netbeans-platform was not updated since quite
a long time, which means that this package needs to be updated before.

 It's AppStream metadata.


Whould it not be a good idea to have it in a separate package, such kind of
metadata should not be included with the application package IMHO

Hi,

I saw this page, but I could not find out, if anybody actually is
working on this. All the TODO bugs are assigned to nobody and also the
wiki page was not updated for a long time.

Since you are the owner of this feature, is it okay to update it for
NetBeans version 7.4 and go ahead with working on it?

 Well yes, each time you try to force a change through which actually makes
 things worse, there WILL be resistance. In fact, this is already what is
 happening in this thread, the app proposal coming from (parts of) the
 Workstation WG.

I don't see many people forcing things through, I believe that the vast
majority of contributors either like the change or aren't bothered by it.
There's certainly no proof that it'll make anything worse. That doesn't
mean its going to be perfect or without teething problems as the changes
are made and things settle down.

The fact that you don't like change or don't understand it means that you
shouldn't try and project your opinion as that of the general community.

That you see a proposal as forcing things through is unfortunate. But I

 That is a valid point. I don't know what is better, 

Well, a Shell Function would be more readable, for example. It would
accept normal arguments to fill in variables -- instead of global RPM
macros, which are substituted in the entire spec file.

Fedora 20 Beta Go/No-Go Meeting #3, Thursday, November 07 @ 17:00 UTC

2013-11-07 Thread Jaroslav Reznik
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:

F21 System Wide Change: Python 3.4

2013-11-07 Thread Jaroslav Reznik
= 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)

2013-11-07 Thread Florian Weimer

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.  It's just a very difficult problem, no matter 
how you eventually ship your bits.

Copr

2013-11-07 Thread Miroslav Suchý

Dear developers and Fedora contributors,

let me introduce Copr:

http://copr-fe.cloud.fedoraproject.org/

Copr is a build system for third party repositories. It is intended for:
 * upstream teams - to make nightly and test builds
 * layered applications - if you build on top of Fedora, but you are not part 
of Fedora
 * packages not yet ready to be included in official Fedora repositories

How it works? You provide src.rpm, we will provide resulting yum repo for RHEL 
5,6 and Fedora 18, 19, 20... But see
WARNING on bottom of this mail.

I prepared quick tutorial for you:
 https://fedorahosted.org/copr/wiki/ScreenshotsTutorial
and FAQ:
https://fedorahosted.org/copr/wiki/UserDocs#FAQ

Everybody with FAS account can build there. If you want to use command line 
client, you should install copr-cli from
updates-testing.

If you have ideas, questions, comments feel free to use one of our 
communication channels
https://fedorahosted.org/copr/#Communications
(mailing list is prefered)

WARNING:
Please do not rely on this service in production. 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.

We are working on Copr on full steam and in upcoming days you can expect:
* improvements in WebUI
* ability to build Software Collections there

based on my testing it's unlikely to cause us any particular problems.

 I asked about this last week and the kernel devs didn't feel comfortable
 about switching after beta or trying to get a freeze exception to get
 3.12 into beta.

 I run rawhide nodebug kernels on three machines and am not seeing any
 regressions relative to 3.11.

I'm seeing system hangs with rawhide kernels now (oops on boot with the
latest one). No idea if it's a kernel hang or just dead input, and
journalctl's lack of handling of logs that were interupted by a reset is
not helping

503 is smaller than 624 and the screenshot is the wrong aspect ratio.
The reason we need a minim width is so we avoid *scaling up* the

The plan is to ship this with the other metadata (and downloaded by
dnf/yum) long term, but at the moment the metadata is shipped with the
package as we're still tweaking the metadata format and adding
extractor rules. I'm hopeful for F21 we can take this out the package.

Sorry to rain on your parade, but are you sure this (and with the fix for
the nested expansion, it becomes even more ugly) is compatible with the
spec files must be legible packaging guideline?


That is a valid point. I don't know what is better,

Well, a Shell Function would be more readable, for example. It would
accept normal arguments to fill in variables -- instead of global RPM
macros, which are substituted in the entire spec file.
Uhm, how can one this be done? Shell variables are substituted after 
macro expansion, so i.e.


function do_build {
arch=$1
qt_version=$2
%{mingw${arch}_qmake_${qt_version}}
}

would hardly work? Or are you suggesting passing the entire macros as 
arguments? I.e.


function do_build {
qmake=$1
make=$2
${qmake} args
${make} %{?_smp_mflags}}
[...]
do_build %{mingw32_qmake_qt4} %{mingw32_make}

Re: Draft Product Description for Fedora Workstation

2013-11-07 Thread Nicolas Mailhot

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.

Is that clearer?

[389-devel] Please review lib389 ticket 47584 (take #3): CI tests: add backup/restore of an instance

2013-11-07 Thread thierry bordaz

This review differs from previous with:

 * skip verbose option (use of log.level).
 * use glob.glob to retrieve files matching rather that os.walk
 * fix a bug in instanceBackupFS that did not return an already
   existing backup
 * add two functions to handle instance backup: clearInstanceBackupFS
   (to remove one or all backups of an instance), _infoInstanceBackupFS
   (just to keep path/pattern info of backup into a single routine)

I fail to see the point of discussing non-GNOME-specific problems on a
GNOME development list. A bit more logical to include people who actually
work on non-GNOME software and don't want to discuss non-GNOME app
distribution on a GNOME list.

Really, why do I have to write this at all? Fedora Workstation is not

F21 Self Contained Change: OpenCL

2013-11-07 Thread Jaroslav Reznik
= Proposed Self Contained Change: OpenCL =
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/OpenCL

Change Owner(s): Fabian Deutsch fabi...@fedoraproject.org

This change will bring basic OpenCL support to Fedora to support the 
development of OpenCL enabled software and the development of OpenCL 
implementations itself. The change includes enabling Mesa's OpenCL state-
tracker (in 9.3 with ICD support), packaging pocl - an CPU only OpenCL 
implementation - and the introduction of several other OpenCL related 
packages.

== Detailed description ==
The change is intended to give developers a starting point to be able to use 
OpenCL and to improve existing OpenCL implementations.

The change will include the following sub changes:

Add OpenCL implementations
* Enable OpenCL state-tracker in Mesa NEW
* Package pocl - CPU-only OpenCL implementation DONE
* Package beignet - Intel Ivy Bridge 1 only

Package implementation dependencies:
* Package libclc - needed by Mesa's state-tracker DONE
* Fix OpenCL path owenrship - Who owns /etc/OpenCL DONE
* Review Request: opencl-filesystem - OpenCL filesystem layout - A package 
owning shared paths DONE

 Package related packages
* Review Request: gocl - GLib/GObject based library for OpenCL - glib based 
OpenCL library DONE
* Review Request: clinfo - Enumerate OpenCL platforms and devices - A tool to 
query informations about the available OpenCL platforms DONE
* Review Request: erlang-cl - OpenCL binding for Erlang DONE
* Package ViennaCL - A math library whcih can utilize CPU (OpenMP) and GPU 
(OpenCL/CUDA) WIP
* Package pyopencl - A python library for accessing OpenCL BLOCKED BY rhbz 
#1002898
* Package ocltoys - A couple of OpenCL examples for testing NEW

* Update existing packages if needed
** gegl (to be investigated)
** ocl-icd (done)

* Potential projects to be packaged:
** Package khronos icd - probably not
** Package radeontop - To monitor a Radeon GPU (which supports OpenCL)
** Package piglit - This will be a testuite for the OpenCL implementations, 
has some non-fedora deps

* Other stuff:
** Add a new group to comps or a opencl-dev package?
** Add virtual provides to the opencl implementations - So a app requiring 
opencl just needs to require the virtual package (so any provider)
** Version opencl-headers

== Scope ==
Proposal owners: Mainly packaging 
Other developers: N/A (not a System Wide Change) 
Release engineering: N/A (not a System Wide Change) 
Policies and guidelines: N/A (not a System Wide Change)

 Dear developers and Fedora contributors,
 
 let me introduce Copr:
 
 http://copr-fe.cloud.fedoraproject.org/
 
 Copr is a build system for third party repositories. It is intended for:
   * upstream teams - to make nightly and test builds
   * layered applications - if you build on top of Fedora, but you are not 
 part of Fedora
   * packages not yet ready to be included in official Fedora repositories
 
 How it works? You provide src.rpm, we will provide resulting yum repo for 
 RHEL 5,6 and Fedora 18, 19, 20... But see
 WARNING on bottom of this mail.
 
 I prepared quick tutorial for you:
   https://fedorahosted.org/copr/wiki/ScreenshotsTutorial
 and FAQ:
  https://fedorahosted.org/copr/wiki/UserDocs#FAQ
 
 Everybody with FAS account can build there. If you want to use command line 
 client, you should install copr-cli from
 updates-testing.
 
 If you have ideas, questions, comments feel free to use one of our 
 communication channels
  https://fedorahosted.org/copr/#Communications
  (mailing list is prefered)
 
 WARNING:
 Please do not rely on this service in production. 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.
 
 We are working on Copr on full steam and in upcoming days you can expect:
  * improvements in WebUI
  * ability to build Software Collections there
 

Miroslav,
let me congratulate you and all the people working on Copr, this is an
awesome tool that I have already used in the past for development.

It makes developing changes to packages and letting other users test
them very easy, thanks a lot!

Simo.

 A lot of this is being based on technology that's not really available
 yet such as kdbus, Wayland, systemd bits. This has been discussed at
 GUADEC (GNOME conference):
 http://www.superlectures.com/guadec2013/sandboxed-applications-for-gnome
 
 Wayland and systemd strongly suggest no Ubuntu interoperability
 whatsoever.  Shouldn't this be a top priority for bundled
 applications?

Canonical does what Canonical wants to do. They already have their own
solution for something like this. It is just very distribution specific
and not as secure as what this is proposing AFAIK.

 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.

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.

 Is that clearer?

No.

Oh, I read it.  I find it odd that we can have a tool with a name
(Copr) that is officially part of the Fedora project and a tool
without a name (containerized apps) that doesn't even exit yet that
both solve similar issues and can be used in similar ways and somehow
have the name being the only thing that makes it acceptable.

So if we call containerized apps Appers and host it somewhere on
Fedora infrastructure and tell people about it, you'd be totally OK
with that?  People seem to already be jumping to conclusions that
Appers are going to somehow magically be THE WAY we deliver software,
but yet nobody had the same thoughts around Coprs.  The blinders
involved here are pretty large.

These things are tools.  They aren't the end-all-be-all solution to
software delivery.  I just wish people would calm down and stop
wasting so much energy fighting against something on grounds that
aren't even with existing tools and before anyone even sees what it
looks like.

Maybe that's because Coprs were never announced with huge rants about

It's not blinders it's the natural reaction of people to tactless

There's plenty of reasons why you haven't seen any negative feedback. I'll share 
my views on this subject since I'm in the not sure ballpark of this new process.


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.


I'm still going to keep my ears open and attempt at digesting what this new idea 
is bringing to the table, but it hasn't sit well on my stomach so far.

It's not that I can't see a way to fix it, it's that I can see that there is 
no way! The whole system relies on bundling, so it is provably impossible to 
implement it without getting the nasty drawbacks of bundling.

Re: Draft Product Description for Fedora Workstation

2013-11-07 Thread Christian Schaller
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. 

Christian

Please don't count me as everyone.

How is Coprs a benefit?
-Allows easy Fedora fragmentation. Why bother with package reviews ever again? 
Were Ubuntu's PPAs seen as such an advantage because they allowed every John Doe 
and Jane Smith to release packages put together with duct tape? I highly value 
Fedora's packaging guidelines and now to provide a service that does away with 
them is insulting.
-Who is going to police it? People will attempt at uploading binary packages. 
(steam, NVIDIA, skype, etc)
-What's this do over running mock on your local system? Anyone can generate RPMs 
on their own system the same way Koji/Coprs do.

You haven't established any such consensus at all.  On the contrary, I see

 That means it will exclude the most popular distribution out there.

If you are referring to Ubuntu, then yes. But then again, they already
have their own app packaging format based around .debs and
AppArmor. So yeah, we might be dicks by not supporting non-systemd
systems, but they were dicks first, by not supporting non-Ubuntu systems
for their app images. And that's quite some consolation, no? ;-)

Can you orphan those packages so I can become the owner?

Do you know if we should be looking for an update to Nagios 4 anywhere 
in the near future?  I'd like to do some testing on my end before that 
happens to see if my setup will seamlessly handle that upgrade.

introducing myself

2013-11-07 Thread Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos
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. 

[0]. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1027770

Best regards,
Nikos

 I fail to see the point of discussing a feature that is meant to allow
 upstreams to provide installable bundles that work in all linuxes if it
 is only to work in Fedora.
 
 I already talked about other distributions so your concern has been
 addressed already.

But I pointed out that you are leaving out the most popular one, and you 
responded by labeling me as off-topic when actually YOU were the one who 
started talking about other distributions.

You advertise distribution-independent packages, so your packages really 
need to work on ALL distributions. Assuming systemd is already a non-
starter.

IMHO, trying to support cross-distro packages is a failed endeavour from the 
outstart, Fedora RPMs are the way to go.

Thats one thing that puzzles me about this thread... this is all from: 

Work towards a system where applications can be installed inside a
container to improve security and simplify compatibility through
library bundling

Which basically says that the working group is going to work on that.
There's actually 0 technical details on how the implemetation will work
out, or even if it will. 

Perhaps we could move this back to productive and suggest that the
working group amend their PRD to have something like: 

Investigate the implementation and usage for application containers
and then we can discuss details when there actually are some?

Hi,
The core principle of the installer is that it operates on an application level

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

see all of this as advocacy for more than one approach.  Not replacing one

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.

Why do you want to differentiate between Mutt and sshd?  If a user wants to
install a specific piece of software, they search for it within a gui and
if it matches, they install it and move on.  If you really need some way to
differentiate, you can have some form of tagging via fedora tagger or
appdata which you can include in more than just gui packages.

When I want some software,  say Epiphany and Mutt, if I can only use the
installer for the Epiphany but I have to use yum for Mutt, I rather just
use yum for both where I don't have to switch between two different ways of
getting it.   I don't mind the focus on gui applications but leaving out
command line tools altogether forces me to think about whether say htop
would be considered a application by the installer or not which is not the
level I want to differentiate at all.  When I search for something within
the installer and it returns nothing, is it because there is genuinely
nothing that matches what I want within the repositories or is the
installer just excluding it based on implementation level details like
desktop files and appdata?  How would I know?  It is just too complex.

 If you are referring to Ubuntu, then yes. But then again, they already

No, calling each other dicks is overall not at all consoling.

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.

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.

 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.

We've been shipping a graphical package install tool since before we shipped
yum.  (As awesome as glint and glitter were) I, for one, am not going to
worry about this particular slippery slope.

[Test-Announce] Fedora 20 Beta status is Go, ongoing release schedule adjustments!

2013-11-07 Thread Jaroslav Reznik
At the Fedora 20 Beta Go/No-Go Meeting that just occurred, it was
agreed to Go with the Fedora 20 Beta by Fedora QA and Fedora
Development (with silent approval from me ;-).

Fedora 20 Beta will be publicly available on Tuesday, November 12,
2013.

!!!Schedule adjustment!!! 
Due to possible collision with holidays, FESCo approved [1] one
week shorter Beta to Final period with Final Change Deadline on
Nov 26. Be aware of this change and queue your updates on time!

Many thanks to everyone who helped with this release and fixing
all (heisen)bugs!

Meeting details can be seen here:
Minutes: http://bit.ly/1dQmqdr
Log: http://bit.ly/1bdSrZ3

I don't have a beef with r.f.o. They're no different from hosting a repo on a 
personal server. The top of the root page even contains a disclaimer.



How on earth do you get to 'does away with them' ?


It's a Fedora infrastructure server building non-Fedora packages. Why is it 
considered part of Fedora? Plus there is no disclaimer.



The copr maintainers? along with anyone who looks at them who wishes to
report something non distributable. Just like repos.fedorapeople.org


Good. I see that feature.


Sure they can. This just allows them a place to publish them and not
use local computing resources to build them.


I don't have anything wrong with creating a useful service if it respects 
Fedora's principles.

 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.  Thanks!

 There's actually 0 technical details on how the implemetation will work
 out, or even if it will. 

http://www.superlectures.com/guadec2013/sandboxed-applications-for-gnome

So there have been lots of thought and work going into this. But maybe
more needs to be written down in the proposal as you mentioned.
