If you can't connect then you may have some network configuration issue, or 
potentially the keyserver is busy at this moment.  However, this would only be 
a temporary problem and you report you've been getting this regularly.

Do you see if port 443 is open from where you are?

$ nc -v -z keys.gentoo.org 443
DNS fwd/rev mismatch: keys.geodns-europe.gentoo.org != trogan.gentoo.org
keys.geodns-europe.gentoo.org [89.238.71.4] 443 (https) open


Alternatively, do you also have a problem using rsync?

BTW, I use rsync and do not have 'app-crypt/gentoo-keys' installed.  Instead I 
have 'app-crypt/openpgp-keys-gentoo-release' which is how Gentoo portage keys 
are propagated:

The patch spqr-1.2.3-autotools.patch is broken, it includes two

Deleting the first (and adjusting the patchlength: '@@ -0,0 +1,54 @@')

The same is with julia-1.4.0-r1.

And I forgot to mention that in spite I am trying to build the GR
package inside Julia REPL, it actually downloads it.
However, I mentioned it on the discourse at the link provided above.

Re: [gentoo-user] Is Hardened profile and SELinux support active?

2020-04-09 Thread Nils Freydank
Hi Ihor,

myself I use only hardened profiles without SELinux on my machines, and 
AFAICT it mostly boils down *this* way to some default toolchain flags for
C/C++ and a nearly-default kernel (sys-kernel/gentoo-soures package)[a].

I dropped a note about your question on the IRC channel #gentoo-hardened on 
freenode[b] and got mostly instant responses from people telling they run 
SELinux fine on Gentoo (so it seems you're right and only our docs are a 
bit dusty) -- you might want to ask there for details ;-)

I'm top-posting here and Cc'ing one of the gentoo devs maintaing SELinux,
so he get's your original question aswell (he hasn't subscribed to this
list). 

hope this helps and from my side also a warm welcome to Gentoo!

[a] side note: it's similar to archs default kernel mostly vanilla upstream
only with security or bugfix patches and optional patches for
convenience, e.g. -march=native or systemd vs openrc.

Hmm ... odd.  It may be specific to nullmailer code, which I am not familiar 
with.  The sequence in /etc/hosts file is:

# IP_ADDRESScanonical_hostname  [aliases...]

  127.0.0.1  localhostmy_PC

Userspace applications ought to resolve 'localhost' to 127.0.0.1, which is a 
special hostname, rather than an alias.  You can read more about localhost in 
RFC 1912, starting at the bottom of page 13:

https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1912

Given the above I would expect an application to resolve "localhost" to 
127.0.0.1 and potentially fall over on some alias, depending how it parsed /
etc/hosts file.

I guess... from reading the man page.

There is a simple test to verify my clain for vfork():

bosh may easily be configured for various behavior. If you like a bosh that
does not use vfork() just call:

cd sh
smake clean
smake COPTX=-DNO_VFORK

If you run tests like:

CONFIG_SHELL=$shell $shell ./configure

in the directory "autoconf" from the schilytools:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/schilytools/files/

(first run "rm *cache"), there is a significant performance win on Solaris
for the version that uses vfork() - 20% less kernel CPU time.

On Linux, there is a too little win for the same comparison.

On Solaris, a vfork() call (check with truss -c) is takes only 1/3 of the time 
of a fork(), on Linux the win is only 30%. The total performance win for bosh
executing configure using vfork() on Solaris is 10-15%, on Linux the total win 
is only 3%.

Note that Linux copied the Solaris concept to implement a normal fork() with 
copy on write mmaps to the parent. So the only difference between fork() and 
vfork() is the handling of the address space description for the processes 
in the kernel.

I would be happy, if there could be a way to get the same vfork() performance 
win 
on Linux as seen on Solaris.

BTW: I forgot to mention that the unit tests for bosh are used this way:

-   first compile schilytools by running smake from top level.

-   Then chdir to "sh" and call "smake tests", see the global code
in $SRCROOT/tests and the specific code in sh/tests

interesting.  i had (no work):

but it only worked when i swapped order of `myhostname`:

  `127.0.0.1myhostname localhost`

What errors?

There is bug 716434[1] where julia fails because it tries to download
more tarballs (yes, during compilation). An ebuild change was made to
address this, so it might be worth syncing the tree and trying to emerge
again.

I have not configured nullmailer to know its internals, but assuming you have
