Re: Heads Up: python2 is marked as deprecated

Miro Hrončok wrote:
> [2] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Deprecating_Packages

This policy is highly impractical. Any package can be deprecated without 
notice, in some situations even without any kind of approval (if there is 
nothing using it in Fedora yet). One needs to do a repoquery to even get the 
list of deprecated packages, because they are not centrally tracked. And if 
I package or review a new package, I am now supposed to check every single 
BuildRequires (and maybe also its transitive Requires closure?) for whether 
it "Provides: deprecated()"!? There is just no way I am going to do that.

Applying this policy to a language interpreter that is used by dozens of 
useful packages that are not yet packaged for Fedora makes it even more 
impractical. Let's face it: lots and lots of upstream software will NEVER be 
ported to Python 3. Yet, it is still useful, and may be the only way to do 
what the user needs to do. Banning all that software from Fedora is doing a 
major disservice to our users!

No, but googling "kinit 141" leads to
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1537866
which suggests trying the kinit command twice in a row.

Yet, I just see NO practical alternative to SOMEBODY doing just that. It 
just needs to be done, just as with GTK+ 1 and 2, and Qt 3 and 4. (Yes, all 
those are still in Fedora.)

We CANNOT just drop half of the distribution just because upstream 
arbitrarily decided to desupport its widely used language interpreter in 
favor of an incompatible new major version.

That probably means that ft8call copied a library or binary from
hamlib.  Check your ft8call buildroot for a duplicate with hamlib.

I have a Kerberos authentication problem.

On one computer running Fedora 27, I run kinit to authenticate to the

141. Then I run "fedpkg build", and get these error messages:

Kerberos authentication fails: (-1765328352, 'Ticket expired')

Build ID conflict?!?

2018-09-16 Thread Richard Shaw
First time I've run into this...

Working on a new package and tried to install it only to get:

Error: Transaction check error:
  file /usr/lib/.build-id/67/7d4bdbbde390cc49fddb539cceb06ccb80efd6 from
install of ft8call-0.6.4-1.fc28.x86_64 conflicts with file from package

hamlib-3.2-1.fc28.x86_64

It does build against hamlib...

It does explicitly say to contact maintainer, documented via bugzilla,

It does explicitly say to contact maintainer, documented via bugzilla,

I think we should actually make this the step 0. of the policy.

Erm, I have been quite active in august on bugzilla, for instance, I
helped fixing many python3 FTBFS.

Surprising for a project that had its last stable in 2015 and was
mostly dead since.
I hadn't touched it for a while, as it got updated regularly by the
desktop team.

Incorrect, I did answer and yes I forgot about this.
Did you ask for access? No

These needs co-maintainers, sexy should have been retired long ago,
I kept them around as other packages depends on it.
Again, if you want perms, just ask!

I missed these as they were not in the python37 FTBFS tracker.
I'll get them fixed today.

Needs a co-maintainer

This one has co-maintainers and was actively attended by the desktop team.

Co-maintainers are welcome, otherwise, I'll deprecate that.

The policy mention that you have to try contacting the maintainer
*first*, you never sent me an email or pinged me on irc.
I don't like this kind of passive-aggressive approach, had you
contacted me, we would have sorted this out quickly, co-maintainers
are welcome.

One more thing, when you want to contact someone in the project =>
@fedoraproject.org should always work.

Regards,
H.

Re: Orphan/retire gogoc

2018-09-16 Thread J. Randall Owens
I should have added, it's currently FTBFS, and has been since F25, so
any potential adapters would have to deal with that. It needs at least a
BuildRequires removed or updated, and a patch for the printf change of
that time, so you'd have to be able to fix at least that much.

Orphan/retire gogoc

2018-09-16 Thread J. Randall Owens
Hello,

gogoc is dead to the world upstream (the gogo6.com site is now a
nutritional supplement pusher!), and without gogo6's servers, gogoc is
fairly useless. It's still possible it could be used to TSP tunnel
through one's own servers to get IPv6, but as far as I know, there
aren't any more tunnel services out there that use it.

So, if someone would find it worthwhile to keep it around for their own
tunnelling needs, feel free to pick it up. Otherwise, I'll retire it in
two weeks.

Possibly non-responsive maintainer: hguemar

2018-09-16 Thread Fabio Valentini
Hi everybody,

There are many open bugs assigned to hguemar, which he is not
responding to at all. According to a quick bugzilla query, he doesn't
seem to have responded to any of the bugs assigned to him since
October 2017 (!).

Particularly important to me are the FTBFS reports for libgda, which
has last been successfully built on f24 (!):
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=2321

Since then, the package is essentially broken, and there are several FTBFS bugs.

for f26: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1423852
for f28: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1556039
for f29: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1604587

The maintainer has not responded to any of these bugs despite multiple
comments and needinfo requests. He also has not touched the libgda
dist-git repository in 5 years according to the commit log.

There are also other bugzilla bugs where other people have tried to
reach him, without success, for example:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1560212

Additionally, several of his packages failed the f29 mass rebuild, and
the bug reports have been sitting there unacknowledged:

python-yolk: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1606007
python-sexy: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1605903
python-setproctitle: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1605902

python-daiquiri: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1605649

gtksourceviewmm3: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1604292
glom: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1604130

Does anybody know how to contact Haïkel Guémar (hguemar), or has heard
from him recently? According to fedora-active-user, he is - somewhat -
active? If not, I will continue the non-responsive maintainer process
according to the Policy.

  I don't think copr is appropriate either,
  https://docs.pagure.org/copr.copr/user_documentation.html#faq

  To me, makes it pretty clear that if it can't be in fedora, it can't 
be in
  copr either.


  You need to go through the code (maybe use licensecheck -r to help) to 
see if all the code is acceptable. If so I'll defer to Neal on the COPR 
acceptability. Another alternative is until formal support is added to the 
kernel you can look at packaging it in RPM Fusion. If it's truly FOSS but just 
not acceptable because it's a kernel module it can go in the Free repository. 
If it's using proprietary code (even if the project is GPL licensed) then as 
long as it's redistributable, it can go in the Non-Free repository.



This looks like a standard realtek driver which realtek creates for Android 
devices
or some such. The code is not pretty (I really wish realtek would start 
contributing
proper drivers to the mainline kernel) but it usually is all GPL licensed, 
except
for the firmware for the NIC. I don't see firmware in the git repo, so the code
may need to be adjusted to use the kernels firmware-load mechanism (I assume
it has the firmware embedded atm).

The firmware files themselves may be distributed under this license:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree/LICENCE.rtlwifi_firmware.txt

Note I did not check the files in the git repo, I just took a quick peek
that it is a "standard" out of tree realtek driver.

Also IANAL and TINLA.


I also have to use this driver for a USB dongle that works very well
... when I remember to check dkms didn't fail to build on kernel
upgrade ...

There is no firmware needed apparently, but my dongle doesn't work with
driver 5.2 which is the latest, so maybe a firmware is needed but the
driver itself doesn't load it ?

It would be really nice to have this driver in the kernel though as a
huge amount of cheap dongles use this chipset family, what would be the
process to get it in ?


You can submit it for inclusion into drivers/staging, there are already
some realtek drivers for other chipsets there for similar reasons.

Real inclusion would require a complete rewrite of the driver mostly.


Sigh, and I guess there is no party (beyond Realtek) with enough
interest/time to do that ...


Well for some older chips Jes Sorensen did a new driver from scratch using
the GPL-ed Realtek code as hardware documentation, so it is possible for
a community member to do this if it itches hard enough for them.

You could reach out the Jes and ask him how much work this was and if
he perhaps can write a blog post or 2 (or 3) to summarize his experience
with this.

Regards,

Hans





Simo.
