quilt has builtin support for spec files.  You only need to run quilt

 It's way more than just common.

You can set any branch as default via origin/HEAD, and some do.  It is
also easy to make origin/devel an alias for origin/master.

 So what's an alias?

See git-symbolic-ref(1).  HEAD is an example.

 If that's so, that's a much better solution than a symlink.

They used to be implemented with a symlink.

 This one looks serious. Are you using the f12/rawhide TL repo on a
 rawhide system? If so, I need to separate the F12/rawhide repositories because
 of the glibc change in rawhide. So F12 and rawhide binary packages are
 no more compatible.

libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.11)(64bit) is provided by both f12 and rawhide glibc.

 What's wrong with proving support for core fonts as a fallback?  That's
 what Emacs is doing, for example.

 The problem here is your fallback is going to be less robust than your
 primary path. Also it is not needed at all. Every single major GUI app
 uses the new (in 2003 sense of new) font backend, so if it fails
 you're not going to fallback individual apps you're going to switch to
 the console to fix the system.

I don't understand.  Emacs uses the fallback for example to display
characters from the Korean KSC charset, in my case using
-daewoo-minco-medium-*-ksc5601.1987-0 fonts.  What's the approved way
to do that?

Re: Deltarpm xz problem with PPC generated rpms?

2009-09-14 Thread Andreas Schwab
Ben Boeckel maths...@gmail.com writes:

 When I was playing around with xz after it came out, it detects
 the processor and memory available to it and defaults to a
 different compression quality based on that. Maybe if the
 compression quality and memory usage is set in the command line,
 you'd get the same output.

By default xz sets its memory limit to 40% of the physical memory, but
limits above about 90Mb don't change the output any more, and it's still
different between x86 and ppc.

 2. xz generates different compressed files when run on different
 architectures

The problem is that the encoder uses different hash functions depending
on the endianess.  The hash functions are defined in
liblzma/lz/lz_encoder_hash.h, and are based on the values in
lzma_crc32_table[0].  This table is different between big end little
endian.

Some older implementations searched the current directory for the
