GNU ChangeLog Format: <> or []?

[Chris Marusich]

Hi all,

I've noticed that the GNU Standards indicate [] should be used for
conditional changes, and <> should be used for identifying the part that
changed.  However, in Guix, I've noticed that people tend to use [] not
to indicate conditional changes, but rather to indicate the part that
changed.  Is there a reason for this?  Does it matter?

Relevant sections in the GNU Standards are:

(standards) Conditional Changes
https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Conditional-Changes.html#Conditional-Changes

(standards) Indicating the Part Changed
https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Indicating-the-Part-Changed.html#Indicating-the-Part-Changed

Thank you,

Re: SELinux log

[Laura Lazzati]

Hi!

More info after having my fresh install.

First, I ran semode, and checked with -Z option my /gnu dir successfully.
After that, I created the file and rebooted. While rebooting this time I
got the message telling me that the system was being relabeled. Then, I ran
restorecon and set SELinux to Permissive mode. Tried it doing a guix search
hello.

My audit log showed:

type=AVC msg=audit(1560131803.485:381): avc:  denied  { search } for
 pid=8177 comm="bash" name="guix" dev="dm-0" ino=679365
scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023
tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:guix_daemon.guix_daemon_conf_t:s0 tclass=dir
permissive=0

After that I SELinux to Enforcing to see what message I got i the CLI, and
it was a Permission Denied, and now I am getting that guix is not
installed, double checking with  `which guix` :S

I am trying installing guix again with the script, and it reaches the point
where I get:
mv: cannot stat '/var/guix': Permission denied

Any ideas?


Regards!
Laura

Hi!

Me neither. I will delete my VM and have a fresh install, to see if I did
sth wrong in between, following the same steps. At least we know that in
Fedora/RHEL we deactivate SELinux and Guix works fine up to now :/

Yes, I wish I did sth wrongly and it works on my new VM. Will answer back
here!
