[gentoo-user] [Extremely OT] Ansible/Puppet replacement
Hi, I've been working on my own replacement for Bcfg2 - bossman[1] - over the past few months, and it's finally ready to be released in the wild. I would be honored if anyone on this list who's thinking of trying puppet, chef, ansible, bcfg2, etc. would try out bossman instead. bossman has an incredibly simple syntax; no ruby DSLs or XML. My main motivation for writing it was dealing with bcfg2's XML config on a daily basis. Additionally, bossman has a (hopefully) great 'pretend' mode and checks for a lot of errors. If you are already using another solution and have some time to check out bossman, I would love feedback. The only config manager I've used in practice is bcfg2, so getting perspectives from those using other solutions would be fantastic. bossman is written in C99 and is built with CMake. I don't recommend it for production deployments quite yet, but I plan on actively working on it. It currently only supports pulling configuration from a mounted filesystem (i.e. local disk, NFS, etc.), but HTTP support (and a deployment tutorial/guide) will be added in v0.2. I'm sorry to spam gentoo-user, but I'm not sure who else would be interested in something like this. Also, feel free to email me with bugs in the code or documentation, or open something in GitHub's issue tracker.

[gentoo-user] Rkhunter now showing Warnings for two files: /bin/egrep fgrep
Hello all,
Been on rkhunter 1.4.2 for a while, no changes made to its config file,
been running nightly for years without these warnings...
I recently did some Gentoo updates after almost 2 months of no updates
(was out of town), and now, even after running --propupd, I continue to
get these warnings:
# grep Warning /var/log/rkhunter.log
[03:10:32] Info: Emailing warnings to 'root' using command '/bin/mail
-s [rkhunter] Warnings found for ${HOST_NAME}'
[03:10:45] /bin/egrep [ Warning ]

[03:10:45] /bin/fgrep [ Warning ]
[03:10:45] Warning: The command '/bin/fgrep' has been replaced by a

Anyone know if this is due to something changing in Gentoo?

As stated in the previous response to your original thread, /bin/[ef]grep
come with the grep package:
file `equery -q f grep|grep /bin/`
/bin/egrep: POSIX shell script, ASCII text executable
/bin/fgrep: POSIX shell script, ASCII text executable
/bin/grep: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV),
dynamically linked, interpreter /lib/ld-linux.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.16,
stripped
The shell scripts in question call the grep binary with the flags shown
below:
grep exec /bin/[ef]grep
/bin/egrep:exec $grep -E $@
/bin/fgrep:exec $grep -F $@

Upstream changed egrep and fgrep from binaries to shell scripts.

After exactly 2 years , I'm trying to update my Asus EEE netbook.

I've already updated to libpng-1.6.16 , so libpng16.so.16 is installed.
Thanks for the various suggestions.
I solved the problem by unmerging Gtk+ Mesa Cairo Libdrm Xorg-server,
after which Libdrm compiled successfully.
BTW there's a rather bizarre dependency :
the stable Mesa-10.2.8 requires the testing Cairo-1.12.18 .
I've never seen this before.
It's not like that here; something must still be skew-whiff:
prh@wstn ~ $ eix -Ice mesa
[I] media-libs/mesa (10.2.8{tbz2}@28/12/14): OpenGL-like graphic library for
Linux
prh@wstn ~ $ eix -Ice cairo
[I] x11-libs/cairo (1.12.16@22/11/14): A vector graphics library with
cross-device output support

Upstream changed egrep and fgrep from binaries to shell scripts.
This happened a while ago on testing portage but the version with the
change only hit stable at the weekend.
You can tell rkhunter to ignore them.

I tried to re-add this stuff with partial success (works, but still SIGILLs sometimes) and it's very hard to clean all pieces. Looks like they're slowly abandoning x86 and older hardware at all. Actually, I can't say that I'm too much of a fan of chromium either. I'm more than happy using vimb, sometimes also midori and firefox. Chromium mostly only sits here as a last resort when some site doesn't seem to work right in one of the other browsers (which, fortunatly, only happens with a frequency that is rapidly approaching never). There are many things I don't like in Chromium, but there is one feature so important, that I can overlook all disadvantages of chromium: this feature is security. Unlike other browsers (I don't consider chrome or chromium forks here as a separate browsers) chromium is secure by design: it isolates tabs and plugins, supports various namespaces, seccomp sandboxing, yama framefork. Other browsers don't: tabs are not isolated, plugins have poor isolation (it seems firefox is working in this direction at least), thogh they work fine on my yama-enabled systems. So the fact that I don't care about chromium too much, with the added fact that my main machine is a lower-range laptop and takes quite a while to build chromium, is also the reason why I can't be bothered right now to re-build in order to try out various things or otherwise try to collect debugging information. distcc will help you here, that is the way how I maintain older boxes. Of course, you should use ccache too. Best regards, Andrew Savchenko pgpS22Eu7owem.pgp Description: PGP signature
