Yeah, indeed, the maintainer screwed up big time there. :-/ He didn't talk 
to us at all before pushing that ktorrent update. :-( He used to be on 
#fedora-kde from time to time, but not anymore. He apparently didn't read 
our announcement about the KDE 4.3.0 buildroot override on the mailing list 
either.

BTW, the update notes for that update are also completely worthless, when 
upstream even summarized the changes nicely in their newsitem (so there's 
really no excuse for not pasting them in).

I took this one. If you like I can also take care of F11 and F10. So if
 you orphan them, I'll take ownership of these, too.

I'm not sure what the right way is. If you want to maintain it, I'll be 
happy to orphan F10 and F11 too, I just thought that if no-one showed up I 
could handle maintenance til F12.
I'll orphan them right now.

Now that I look closer, the text gets it right everywhere.  It's just

No, the XEmacs locations have needed the "lisp" part for a long time.
See the very bottom of this page, and notice the copyright dates:

http://www.xemacs.org/Documentation/packageGuide.html

My suspicion is that whoever wrote the wiki page did a copy&paste from
the Emacs version and overlooked the "lisp" portion of the path.  I
actually noted this once before and thought from the response I got
that it would be taken care of.  Ah, perhaps it was.  Item #7 in the
Executive Guidelines on the wiki page gets it right.

This change is appropriate for every distribution with a post 2000
release of XEmacs.  Prior to that, it used site-lisp like Emacs
anyway

popcorn sound with kernel 2.6.29.6

2009-08-21 Thread Chitlesh GOORAH
Hello there,

I am experiencing some random popcorn sound while playing mp3 and
while assisting flash based webinars with the kernel-2.6.29.6.

However I am not experiencing this with kernel-2.6.29.5. By random I
mean, I don't get this popcorn sound everytime I play the same mp3 and
at the same timeframe. This popcorn sound seems to attenuate the gain
of the music and at the same time it speeds the play.

Has anyone encountered this issue with kernel-2.6.29.6 or any means to
troubleshoot it ? I was hoping to see this fix in the latest fedora
release but the problem is still there.

regards,
Chitlesh

I use bodhi every day.  I have yet to find all it's limitations.  There are
known limitations that aren't even documented.  I think it's a bit far
reaching to say that maintainers should just know, when there is no good way
for them to know without either reading the code or excessive use.

That's decent advice, but it will not catch quite a number of the problems
that we see come up.

It's broken (we've had some fun with that with the KDE grouped updates too, 
we learned to be careful about what we push when), but a maintainer should 
know how to use our tools, which includes being aware of their limitations. 
Double-checking things both before and after filing an update (e.g. checking

Sorry but the fail here is 100% on bodhi's side , why does a single
package obsolete a complete group update?
That is just broken, and this example clearly showed it.

The new behavior is probably that Bodhi will just make a big mess if you 
push that update (like thinking that the older version in the group is 
"newer" if it gets pushed later for whatever reason). Or at best you'll get 
an error. So I think my advice to get the group edited to include your new 
build instead is still sound.

Oh, that's interesting. I guess you're right, then. Sorry - I was going
off references from the VAAPI site, I didn't check with the actual
driver package.

http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/vaapi lists VIA / S3 Graphics
Accelerated Linux Driver under 'Drivers (back-ends) that implement VA
API'.

Maybe it does both...

Thank you for your explaination. I think we should make a distinct betwenn
a regquirement which must install on the same machine and another
requirement
which is provides by a remote system.

I think this is a faulty generalization.

X is a network protocol.  vdpau and xnvctrl applications can be
perfectly functional running on a Fedora machine with no nvidia driver
installed, if they happen to be talking to some _other_ machine
somewhere in the world that does support those extensions.  One might
argue that this is a trivial distinction, and that it still requires
some non-free blob to be made to work, but to make that assertion you're
basically saying that interoperability is only acceptable if there's
some free implementation of what you're interoperating with.  If you
follow that idea through, you end up removing pilot-link, libgpod...

The emulator rule-of-thumb makes sense to the extent that the emulator
itself is the end goal.  If the only reason you could want it installed
is to play some arcade game ROM then there's pretty clearly no
interoperability argument to be made.  But libvdpau isn't the end goal;
the VDPAU app is the end goal.  libvdpau is just how you get there.

The emulator RoT also assumes that the copyright holder of the magic
bits doesn't _want_ you to use them.  NVIDIA clearly wants people to use
VDPAU.

I'd blame the bad workflow and the unexpected beheaviour of bodhi. Btw.
all your steps are not documented in the Package Update Howto[0] and are
probably not valid anymore, since the auto obsoletion is disabled now.
But I do not really know how Bodhi would behave now.

- From my point of view. This cases demostrate, that we need a
clarification about
the requirements which a package has to fullfill for inclusssion into
Fedora.

Package which are only useable if you have installed a package which
is not part
of Fedora may not allow for Fedora. This is the argument why we not
contributes
eumulators. In common emulators requires special ROM images which contains
copyright content.

A made dicision may not be valid forever. If we will have got a
opensource package
which allow the usage of vdpau with the close source driver from
nvidia we can change
this dicision.

I think there's precedents for accepting it for Fedora:

- libXNVCtrl, another X extension library that happens to only do
anything when the user is running the nvidia binary driver, but which is
itself MIT-licensed.

- gstreamer-plugins-flumpegdemux, which allows you to separate the audio
and video streams from MPEG files, even though the decoding itself is
off-limits for Fedora

It happens that only nvidia implements VDPAU at the moment, but so what?
Any other vendor could too.

Multiline values in bodhi.template

2009-08-21 Thread Pavel Alexeev (aka Pahan-Hubbitus)
I'm believe before this works fine, but now I try put multiline comment 
into notes field like:


# Description of your update
notes=- New version.
- Name directory in tarball sim instead of trunk.
- Step to lzma source packaging.
- For BUG#478341 fixing add R kdebase3-libs

and got error:

Why? Can I provide multiline notes at all? How?

As far I understand this package itself is open source but has a
dependency to the properitary nVidia video driver which is
provides by rpmfusion.org.

For this reason I vote agains the inclusion of this package into
Fedora because I introduce a requirement reference to a
third-party repository.

Wouldn't it be better to have texlive-csplain%{_isa} shipping the arch
dependent bits and a texlive-csplain-common.noarch shipping the arch
independent stuff? That would be more in line with other packages.

I'd blame the tomboy maintainer for the chaos there. Before you push an 
update to a package, you MUST check for previous updates for the package 
(possibly filed by somebody else, Bodhi will NOT mail you about them, even 
if you are the maintainer!), and if it's a grouped update, you CANNOT push a 
new update for your package, you MUST get it updated in the group instead.

Wouldn't texlive-csplain-libs or texlive-csplain-bin be more compliant to 
our guidelines?

It's not. It's entirely acceptable to bump a soname if there's a good reason 
to and dependent packages WILL have to get rebuilt. It would be impossible 
to update something like xulrunner for security fixes otherwise.

That said, in this case, IMHO there are too many dependent packages to force 
such a global rebuild.

Right, see also the hackery we do to allow kdelibs-devel and kdelibs3-devel 
to coexist.

Ah, I meant listing both mutter and mutter-moblin, rather than just
mutter-moblin. Slip of the fingers, when both parts of the name starts
with the same letter and have the same length!

There is no "moblin" package as such. In fact mutter-moblin is the
main desktop env package. I need to sit down and got through the
package list and work out the exact dependency tree. I know it mostly
from packaging everything up but there's no doubt something I'll miss.

No thinking needed. he definitely meant that yesterday was a busy day :)
