While I was too young a developer when this thread first appeared, I now have a few things to report in this relaunch ;) On the NX servers side: * servers based on NX 2.1 code are now in portage, including the binary free edition from Nomachine (the NX developers), and freenx 0.6 * both of these servers now work on ~amd64 (multilib only though) * 2x terminal server and client are now in portage: GPL (even the NX client) and based on Nomachine's 1.5 code base * 6 (old) packages were removed from the tree, replaced by net-misc/nx * NX overlay provides a native 64-bit nx/freenx for the adventurous * bugzilla NX bugs count is down to 3 :) With fellow dev grobian, I've also started to get GNUstep in Gentoo back in shape (i.e clean, easy to use, up to date, ...). You can check the progress in the new gnustep overlay: http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/gnustep/wiki Improvements include: * support for new gnustep-make 2.0 * heavy rewrite of the gnustep eclasses and base ebuilds * less polluting of the user profile (no more need to source exernal scripts that tinker with the linker path) * easier-to-write ebuilds * version bumps everywhere (and a few new packages, as a promising-looking cairo backend) * under-the-hood fixes and enhancements here and there -- Voyageur NX and GNUstep Gentoo developer -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

We stabilized kernel-2.6.21 yesterday as older versions failed with gcc4, and we're working on getting gcc-4.1.2 stabilized while we do the security bugs.

Over in the council, we've been doing some status updates of this similar nature, mainly so we all know where we are at (for all the core things that each of the council members are doing, not just limited to council business). The last two meetings have been packed with other stuff, so we've missed that then, but I'm hoping to get back on them with the meeting later this week. Various Gentoo things I'm working on presently, outside of the regular everyday work of ebuild work and infra work: - GLEP on bug-wrangling process (nailing down the good and the bad of what our wranglers like Jakub are doing, so would-be wranglers can have a good idea of what to do). - Series of GLEPS on signing the tree/Manifests. So far it's 5 GLEPs in the set (the series working title is 'Security of distribution of Gentoo software'): 00 - Overview and Background Information 01 - Infrastructure to User distribution - MetaManifest 02 - Developer processes 03 - Handling of GnuPG for developers and keymasters 04 - Manifest2 hash policies and security implications Of this series, 00, 01 and 04 are pretty much complete, but 02 and 03 need a lot more work still. - Infra work for inbound SMTP servers (two of our older boxes being repurposed) since the existing box is overload with mail processing. - Slightly outside of Gentoo, but still relevant, I've been working on some things with Git so that it's closer to a working solution for CVS migration (the history slicing feature that we require is completed, and subtree slicing is in progress). -- Robin Hugh Johnson Gentoo Linux Developer Council Member E-Mail : [EMAIL PROTECTED] GnuPG FP : 11AC BA4F 4778 E3F6 E4ED F38E B27B 944E 3488 4E85 pgpVB0K6CXr2u.pgp Description: PGP signature

Odd that dbus would crash/restart - hald uses dbus, not the other way around - however, dbus should be restarted to read the new (possibly) hald.conf - the real fix would be for the apps that use hal to NOT bomb when hal is yanked out from under them.

Glad it was fairly painless for you. Is there any way stopping the kernel from inotify-ing a directory? Couldn't find one yet. So we could add a test to the ebuild, whether it is a upgrade from 0.5.9 and prevent reloading of the files until the next reboot. Maybe this could find it's way into an eclass, because other applications/daemons like dbus will surely suffer from the same problem when having the next $PV_MAJOR upgrade, so we could use the functions global. Should I open a bug for tracking this issue? And it is good to know that some people are using KNetworkManager - I don't have a machine currently with KDE installed (my KDE machine died) and so I haven't tested it at all recently. KNetworkmanager works really fine here, except of some troubles concerning ipw3945+WPA which should be fixed in the next NetworkManager release (I hope it gets released soon, currently, my WLAN is only WEP encrypted :-/ ).

So, fellow devs, what's new with development? For those interested, genlop has migrated into gentoo as a project with the permission of upstream, which no longer maintain it. Um...any new tools or projects people are working on? Anyone? My current projects include: block_sync glep: really..I'm still working on it..it's almost done, this will enable developers to block the cvs-rsync sync to repair major tree damage. hopefully end of the month for this. Project Leads Glep: This is a new idea, mostly making tiny bits of work for project leads so we can get an idea of what is going on within Gentoo. Still in the 'soliciting initial feedback' phase. I'm also working on the app needed to support this idea (writing it in ruby for now). LDAP Improvements: Slowly working on learning ruby-activeLDAP and using it to punt perl_ldap because I think perl_ldap sucks. Once the newer shinier app is written I plan on writing up some training for it. This is for the overall move of data into ldap which is then used to generate things like userinfo.xml and other web-based data. One place for updates folks.. Gentoolkit: I just ported the new portage namespace to these tools and fixed a few bugs. Sadly I also wrote a broken patch to echangelog that got the newest rev of gentoolkit masked. Fixing echangelog is on my list of things to do. If you are better than me at perl (probably true for many of you) I could use some help here ;) Portage Unit Tests and /etc/portage: These are on the backburner for now but there are nice OO based classes for /etc/portage config files; this means if you were so inclined you could store that data in a db and write classes to read from the db instead of from files. This functionality is not yet enabled in trunk as I have no idea how to bolt it on to portage.config yet; but I'm working on it. The /etc/portage config rewrite is to enable me to test large classes like portage.config that read from tons of files (reading from files is generally a cardinal sin in unit testing). The testing of course is to enable the portage team to make changes and not break stuff. Most of the new features I've been working on are driven using Test Driven Development (TDD) and involve gutting old n busted functions; replacing with new ones. Still need more tests though. Ugh, and I thought I was trying to do less... Oh Summer of Code...reviewed nearly all of the apps. Voting is on Sunday? -Alec -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list

We're currently sitting at 4 patches and that number will probably move to 5 over the next few days. They're fairly straight forward and not to difficult to manage. Another thing we've done with HAL is move over to using quilt (dev-util/quilt). Anyone can join in the HAL patch fun by emerging quilt and following the simple steps. $ cd ~ $ tar zxf /usr/portage/distfiles/hal-0.5.9.tar.gz $ cd hal-0.5.9 $ ln -s /usr/portage/sys-apps/hal/files/0.5.9/ patches $ quilt push Now you'll see it apply our first patch. Keep doing quilt push until you're at the top then do a simple $ quilt new my_uber_l33t.patch Edit your files and you should have a nice patch to submit to bugzilla which is guaranteed to apply so we won't have the issues of user submitted patches not applying and taking a lot of work to make them apply.

I've already seen a lot of requests for help passing this thread, covering a wide range of topics. I suppose these direct requests will certainly attract more people, who don't really know where to start contributing, to the Gentoo community.
