[Guidelines change] Changes to the packaging guidelines
Just this one change, but it has implications for many packages. The Scriptlet guidelines have received several changes regarding the installation of shared libraries and ldconfig. Use of the new macros is detailed, and there is a new section on the scriptlets required when linker configuration files are installed. * https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Shared_Libraries * https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Scriptlets#Shared_Libraries * https://pagure.io/packaging-committee/issue/654 Please note the following before attempting to use the new macros outside of rawhide builds: 1) The updates for F27 (redhat-rpm-config-70.1.fc27) and F26 (redhat-rpm-cponfig-64.1.fc26) which provide the new macros are currently on their way to stable and will hopefully be generally available in a day or so. 2) The epel-rpm-macros updates for EPEL7 and EPEL6, which provide the new macros for those EPEL releases, are in the testing repositories and need more karma before they can be pushed to stable: * https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2018-c5ae067f71 * https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2018-580a31cb75 ___ devel-announce mailing list -- devel-announce@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-announce-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
[HEADS UP] Package wireshark-gtk going away
Hi, the wireshark-gtk is no longer supported by the upstream since wireshark-2.4.0. You may have noticed that there is new GUI based on Qt since wireshark-2.0. This GUI will become default and the GTK-based GUI will be dropped and no longer provided. This change should appear in Fedora 29. -- Michal Ruprich Associate Software Engineer Email: mrupr...@redhat.com Web: www.cz.redhat.com Red Hat Czech s.r.o., Purkyňova 115, 612 00, Brno, Czech Republic ___ devel-announce mailing list -- devel-announce@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-announce-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
Call for users of darkserver
Good Morning Everyone, The week before DevConf, a number of the members of the Fedora Infrastructure met in Brno to discuss states and plans for the infrastructure. One of the question that raised was about darkserver. This application is available at: https://darkserver.fedoraproject.org/ and is meant to: enable developer tools to identify exact package builds from which process images (e.g. core dumps) come. This can enable their analysis, debugging profiling, by finding out where the rpm / elf / dwarf files may be found, so they can download them. (This is even better than abrt-action-install-debuginfo-to-abrt-cache because that apparently cannot query files no longer indexed by repodata.) Source: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Darkserver However, it seems this application has not been working for a long time now and not many people asked about it. So, is anyone using this service? If there is little interest for this project, we will likely decommission it in the coming weeks (say end of March). Thanks for your attention and your feedback, Pierre For the Fedora Infrastructure team signature.asc Description: PGP signature ___ devel-announce mailing list -- devel-announce@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-announce-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
