 New this go-round is that we are also blocking packages that have

 The following packages are currently orphaned, or fail to build. If
 you have a need for one of these packages, please pick them up.

 If not claimed, the packages will be blocked on Monday, July 25.

Re: 'milkymist' group in comps?

 1) When you added this to F14/F15/EL6, you added a typo; this
 broke the F-14 branched compose and the EPEL updates push.
 *Please* verify your changes before pushing.

Sorry I missed it

 2) Aside from that... how does this merit a separate group?

 - We already have the electronic lab group
 - If we add a group each for developing for any embedded/custom
  board, we're going to run into group explosion really quickly

Well it does merit a separate group and we differ in terms of goals.

Fedora/Free Electronic Lab focuses primarily on ASIC design. We were
pretty bad in terms of knowhow in the embedded environment, until
Shakthi joined us. Hence our solutions for embedded tool are
improving. But our FEL goal is not only provide to but also to foster
a community around it.

Milkymist community builds and enhance their own toolchain (currently
not fully supported by Fedora). They have contributors who contribute
for tools such as gcc, qemu, other libraries (too software for FEL
goals). They have many patches that need to push to upstream.
Milkymist founder and I believe that we can collaborate as the
milkmist community is situated between FEL and Fedora, in terms of
tools and upstream patch-push. It is a win-win situation for everyone.

Having a separate group will prevent flooding ASIC engineers (existing
FEL users) with non-useful tools. Having a separate group will
strengthen RedHat/Fedora focus on patch submission for important tools
such as gcc, qemu,.

In short, that was it. It's sad though you can differ FEL goals from the rest.

 OK, that's clear. But I am worried that if we go down this road, we'll
 eventually have 20 or 30 groups for different SoCs for embedded use,
 and that seems like it will eventually be problematic. Is there some
 generic moniker that could be used for this usage?

To be honest that would be a great idea. But I don't know any other
active and vibrant community like milkymist and openmoko alike. I
suggest that, let it be like this. If it gets momentum and other HW
communities pop in, we can rename it, I won't object.

From a strategy perspective, let's bring forces together and show that
this model works. It does, then good for us and our efforts brought
several communities into our wagon. What do you think, let it be its
roadmap ?

Lookaside failure. Check your cert.

2010-09-27 Thread Chitlesh GOORAH
Hello there,

I'm having the following error with some of my packages (iverilog and
perl-Verilog-Perl) since last week, even after updating my certs.

$ fedpkg import
/home/chitlesh/rpmbuild/SRPMS/iverilog-0.9.20100928-1.el6.src.rpm
Uploading: d004408ea595b13780c4c036f8188b66  verilog-0.9.3.tar.gz
Could not import srpm: Lookaside failure.  Check your cert.

However, I managed to build verilator on koji somehow.

Can you please tell me what it may cause this ?

Be excellent would be that guy to drop me a mail stating my package is
being updated to a new version. This is respect !

Similarly my package perl-perlilog is now part of RHEL-6, I haven't
got any email from its RH maintainer whether he cares to co-maintain
it with me on fedora as well. Where is that sense of friendship Fedora
once had ? This is disgusting !

I FULLY support Ralf Corsepius's comments.

2010-07-01 Thread Chitlesh GOORAH
Hello there,

I would appreciate if someone else who is NEITHER a co-maintainer NOR
FESCo member don't version bump my packages, without notifying me.

Petr Pisar seems to mess with my packages.

It's simply disgusting !!
