Important changes to software license information in Fedora packages (SPDX and more!)
by Matthew Miller 29 Jul '22

29 Jul '22

On behalf of all of the folks working on Fedora licensing improvements, I have a few things to announce! New docs site for licensing and other legal topics -------------------------------------------------- All documentation related to Fedora licensing has moved to a new section in Fedora Docs, which you can find at: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/legal/ Other legal documentation will follow. This follows the overall Fedora goal of moving active user and contributor documentation away from the wiki. Fedora license information in a structured format ------------------------------------------------- The “good” (allowed) and “bad” (not-allowed) licenses for Fedora are now stored in a repository, using a simple structured file format for each license (it’s TOML). You can find this at: https://gitlab.com/fedora/legal/fedora-license-data This data is then presented in easy tabular format in the documentation, at: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/legal/allowed-licenses/ New policy for the License field in packages — SPDX identifiers! ---------------------------------------------------------------- We’re changing the policy for the "License" field in package spec files to use SPDX license identifiers. Historically, Fedora has represented licenses using short abbreviations specific to Fedora. In the meantime, SPDX license identifiers have emerged as a standard, and other projects, vendors, and developers have started using them. Adopting SPDX license identifiers provides greater accuracy as to what license applies, and will make it easier for us to collaborate with other projects. Updated licensing policies and processes ---------------------------------------- Fedora licensing policies and processes have been updated to reflect the above changes. In some cases, this forced deeper thought as to how these things are decided and why, which led to various discussion on Fedora mailing lists. In other cases, it prompted better articulation of guidance that was implicitly understood but not necessarily explicitly stated. New guidance on “effective license” analysis -------------------------------------------- Many software packages consist of code with different free and open source licenses. Previous practice often involved “simplification” of the package license field when the packager believed that one license subsumed the other — for example, using just “GPL” when the source code includes parts licensed under a BSD-style license as well. Going forward, packagers and reviewers should not make this kind of analysis, and rather use (for example) “GPL-2.0-or-later AND MIT”. This approach is easier for packagers to apply in a consistent way. When do these changes take effect? ---------------------------------- The resulting changes in practice will be applied to new packages and licenses going forward. It is not necessary to revise existing packages at this time, although we have provided some guidance for package maintainers who want to get started. We’re in the process of planning a path for updating existing packages at a larger scale — stay tuned for more on that! Thank you everyone! ------------------- A huge thanks to some key people who have worked tirelessly to make this happen: David Cantrell, Richard Fontana, Jilayne Lovejoy, Miroslav Suchý. Behind the scenes support was also provided by David Levine, Bryan Sutula, and Beatriz Couto. Thank you as well for the valuable feedback from Fedora community members in various Fedora forums. Please have a look at the updated information. If you have questions, please post them to the Fedora Legal mailing list: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/legal@lists.fedoraproject.org/ -- Matthew Miller <mattdm(a)fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader

List of long term FTBFS packages to be retired in August
by Miro Hrončok 26 Jul '22

26 Jul '22

Dear maintainers. Based on the current fail to build from source policy, the following packages will be retired from Fedora 37 approximately one week before branching (August 2022). Policy: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Fails_to_build_from_source_Fails… The packages in rawhide were not successfully built at least since Fedora 35. This report is based on dist tags. Packages collected via: https://github.com/hroncok/fedora-report-ftbfs-retirements/blob/master/ftbf… If you see a package that was built, please let me know. If you see a package that should be exempted from the process, please let me know and we can work together to get a FESCo approval for that. If you see a package that can be rebuilt, please do so.

Automated reports redirected into a new mailing list: test-reports
by Kamil Paral 26 Jul '22

26 Jul '22

Hello testers and developers, please note that we've set up a new mailing list called test-reports [1] and we've redirected all automated compose/updates/test/etc reports into it. These reports were previously sent to the test list and devel list and created a lot of visual noise among regular conversations (especially in the test list). You can see test-reports archives [1] to see which emails I'm talking about. The only exception is the main rawhide compose report, which still goes to the devel list (as well as test-reports), because it was deemed useful enough to be kept there. If you're interested in receiving these reports, please subscribe to the new list. The default reply is set to go to the test list, where we can have conversations about any suspicious changes/outcomes, but you can of course start your discussion in the devel list, if you prefer. Cheers, Kamil Fedora QA [1] https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/test-reports@lists.fedoraproj…

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Mumble1.4 This document represents a proposed Change. As part of the Changes process, proposals are publicly announced in order to receive community feedback. This proposal will only be implemented if approved by the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee. == Summary == Update the Mumble voice chat application from 1.3 to 1.4. == Owner == * Name: [[User:carlwgeorge| Carl George]] * Email: carl(a)redhat.com == Detailed Description == Earlier this year the Mumble project released a new major version. The full list of new features can be found in the [https://www.mumble.info/blog/mumble-1.4.230/ upstream release notes]. This change also involves several notable packaging changes. * Enable the native PipeWire audio backend * Rename the Mumble server package from murmur to mumble-server, per upstream preference * Relocate Mumble server configuration file from /etc/murmur/murmur.ini to /etc/murmur.ini, per upstream preference == Feedback == == Benefit to Fedora == Mumble is a popular voice chat application. It is commonly used for gaming and podcasts. Updating the Fedora package to the latest upstream version ensures that Fedora Linux continues to be an attractive operating system for those communities. == Scope == * Proposal owners: ** Build version 1.4.x in carlwgeorge/mumble copr ** Test copr packages ** Build version 1.4.x in appropriate Fedora branches * Other developers: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Release engineering: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Policies and guidelines: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) == Upgrade/compatibility impact == The Mumble developers prefer distributions to name the server package mumble-server. Currently this is named murmur in Fedora. This change renames the server package to align with upstream. The required provides/obsoletes will be added per the packaging guidelines. The Mumble developers prefer the server configuration file to be /etc/murmur.ini. Currently this file is /etc/murmur/murmur.ini in Fedora. This change relocates that file in an RPM scriptlet to align with upstream. The old path will become a compatibility symlink to the new path. == How To Test == As Mumble is voice chat software, to test this change you will need a microphone and headphones/speakers. The carlwgeorge/mumble copr repository contains the updated packages. Install the mumble package to test the client. Install the mumble-server package to test the server. If you have other Mumble servers you routinely connect to, connect to them with the updated mumble package. If you are familiar with setting up a Mumble server, set one up with the existing 1.3.x packages and then update to the 1.4.x packages. Verify that the server configuration file gets relocated as described in this change. == User Experience == Users will have the 1.4.x version of Mumble available, with all the upstream features that provides. == Dependencies == N/A == Contingency Plan == * Contingency mechanism: revert to Mumble 1.3 with an epoch * Contingency deadline: beta freeze * Blocks release? no == Documentation == * https://www.mumble.info/blog/mumble-1.4.230/ == Release Notes == Mumble 1.4 is available in Fedora 37. -- Ben Cotton He / Him / His Fedora Program Manager Red Hat TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis

F37 proposal: Emacs 28 (Self-Contained Change proposal)
by Ben Cotton 18 Jul '22

18 Jul '22

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Emacs_28 This document represents a proposed Change. As part of the Changes process, proposals are publicly announced in order to receive community feedback. This proposal will only be implemented if approved by the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee. == Summary == Update GNU Emacs to 28.1 release. This release includes a wide variety of new features, including native compilation of Lisp files. == Owner == * Name: [[User:Bhavin192| Bhavin Gandhi]] * Email: bhavin192(a)fedoraproject.org == Detailed Description == The Emacs package will be updated to 28.1 release of GNU Emacs. This will have native compilation feature enabled, and will package additional natively compiled Lisp files. == Benefit to Fedora == This major version of Emacs has bugfixes and new features which also improve the overall speed of Emacs. == Scope == * Proposal owners: Upgrade the Emacs package to 28.1 * Other developers: N/A * Release engineering: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Policies and guidelines: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Alignment with Objectives: N/A == Upgrade/compatibility impact == Users might see some warnings while their installed Emacs packages get natively compiled after first launch post the upgrade. These warnings won't break any functionality, though the users are encouraged to update their Emacs packages. == How To Test == # Run dnf update emacs # Open Emacs and check if inbuilt functionalities and packages work as indented. == User Experience == https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/#Releases * Lisp files are natively compiled, this results in speed improvements for most of the functionalities * Much improved display of Emoji and Emoji sequences * New system for documenting groups of functions == Dependencies == N/A == Contingency Plan == * Contingency mechanism: (What to do? Who will do it?) N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Contingency deadline: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Blocks release? N/A (not a System Wide Change), No == Documentation == * https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/news/NEWS.28.1 * https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/emacs/pull-request/12 == Release Notes == The upstream release notes are available at https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/news/NEWS.28.1 These can also be accessed from within Emacs by doing `C-h n`. -- Ben Cotton He / Him / His Fedora Program Manager Red Hat TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis

F37 proposal: Haskell GHC 8.10.7 & Stackage LTS 18.28 (Self-Contained Change proposal)
by Ben Cotton 18 Jul '22

18 Jul '22

Note that this proposal supersedes the Haskell GHC 9.0 & Stackage LTS 19 proposal, which was deferred to F38. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Haskell_GHC_8.10.7 This document represents a proposed Change. As part of the Changes process, proposals are publicly announced in order to receive community feedback. This proposal will only be implemented if approved by the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee. == Summary == The GHC Haskell compiler will be updated from minor version 8.10.5 to 8.10.7, and Haskell packages will be updated to Stackage LTS 18.28 minor versions. == Owner == * Name: [[User:Petersen|Jens Petersen]] * Email: petersen(a)redhat.com * Name: [[Haskell_SIG|Haskell SIG]] * Email: haskell(a)lists.fedoraproject.org == Detailed Description == For Fedora 37, the GHC Haskell compiler will be updated from version 8.10.5 to 8.10.7 release (rebasing from the ghc8.10 package). Along with this, Haskell packages in [https://www.stackage.org Stackage] (the stable Haskell source package distribution) will be updated to the final LTS 18.28 minor release. Haskell packages not in Stackage will be updated to the latest appropriate version in the upstream [https://hackage.haskell.org Hackage] package repository. == Benefit to Fedora == Fedora users will have a newer more stable Haskell compiler, tools, and current Haskell packages from final Stackage LTS 18. GHC 8.10.7 contains a few important bug fixes (see the release notes linked in the Documentation section for more details). == Scope == * Proposal owners: ** rebase ghc to 8.10.7 ** update ghc-rpm-macros to the final version for F37 ** update packages to latest [https://www.stackage.org/lts-18 Stackage LTS 18] versions using cabal-rpm ** build all the packages in a Koji sidetag repo in dependency order using fbrnch ** push the sidetag through Bodhi to Rawhide before the mass rebuild [[https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-3ae019aee4 done]] * Other developers: no actions should be needed * Release engineering: * Policies and guidelines: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Alignment with Objectives: == Upgrade/compatibility impact == There should not be any significant upgrade impact. Users' Haskell projects will get built with ghc-8.10,7 when they next build. == How To Test == * install ghc and cabal-install * install pandoc, ShellCheck, ghcid, git-annex, hadolint, stack, xmonad * install ghc-*-devel or ghc-*-prof or ghc-*-doc * cabal-rpm builddep <favouritepackage>; cabal install <favouritepackage> * test upgrades of F36 Haskell packages to F37 == User Experience == Users will have the newer stable minor version of ghc and Haskell libraries and tools available to them. This makes it easier to build the recent versions of Haskell projects. == Dependencies == == Contingency Plan == * Contingency mechanism: (What to do? Who will do it?) ** Change owner can revert back to the versions in F36. * Contingency deadline: Beta Freeze == Documentation == * https://www.haskell.org/ghc/blog/20210814-ghc-8.10.6-released.html * https://downloads.haskell.org/ghc/8.10.6/docs/html/users_guide/8.10.6-notes… * https://www.haskell.org/ghc/blog/20210827-ghc-8.10.7-released.html * https://downloads.haskell.org/ghc/8.10.7/docs/html/users_guide/8.10.7-notes… == Release Notes == The Haskell GHC compiler has been updated from 8.10.5 to 8.10.7 with some important bugfixes. -- Ben Cotton He / Him / His Fedora Program Manager Red Hat TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis

F37 proposal: z13 as the Baseline for IBM Z Hardware (Self-Contained Change proposal)
by Ben Cotton 15 Jul '22

15 Jul '22

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/z13BaselineForIBMZ This document represents a proposed Change. As part of the Changes process, proposals are publicly announced in order to receive community feedback. This proposal will only be implemented if approved by the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee. == Summary == Move the minimal architecture level for IBM Z hardware (the s390x architecture) to z13 to benefit from the new features and better performance in the newer CPU. == Owner == * Name: [[User:sharkcz| Dan Horák]] * Email: <sharkcz(a)fedoraproject.org> == Detailed Description == Moving the minimal architecture level for IBM Z hardware (the s390x architecture) to z13 allows us to benefit from the new features and better performance in the newer CPU. The current minimum at zEC12 is targeting hardware that has been already obsoleted by the vendor. All Fedora infrastructure is already using the latest z15 hardware (builders and co and also our public resources for developers). But we still want to be able to use existing z13 and z14 hardware. Also the TCG (full-system/non-KVM) emulation in QEMU already allows running distros built with z13 as the baseline architecture. This change means updating the defaults in gcc and the build flags and in the kernel. == Benefit to Fedora == The primary benefit is being able to exploit vector instructions by default, which should increase performance. Plus take advantage of other architectural improvements. == Scope == * Proposal owners: ** update the minimal hardware level in the kernel config to z13 ([https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark/-/merge_requests/1907 MR#1907]) ** set default compiler flags to <tt>-march=z13 -mtune=z14</tt> in <tt>redhat-rpm-config</tt> ([https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/redhat-rpm-config/pull-request/207 PR#207]) and <tt>gcc</tt> ([https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/gcc/pull-request/25 PR#25]) * Other developers: * Release engineering: * Policies and guidelines: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Alignment with Objectives: == Upgrade/compatibility impact == Users with hardware older than z13 should stick with F-36 or older release. == How To Test == You shouldn't be able to start Fedora Linux 37 on system older than z13. == User Experience == The primary difference will be in the availability of the vector instructions and as a result better performance. == Dependencies == == Contingency Plan == * Contingency mechanism: (What to do? Who will do it?) N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Contingency deadline: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Blocks release? N/A (not a System Wide Change), Yes/No == Documentation == N/A (not a System Wide Change) == Release Notes == Starting with Fedora Linux 37 the minimal hardware level for the s390x architecture has been updated to z13. -- Ben Cotton He / Him / His Fedora Program Manager Red Hat TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis

As part of the Changes process, proposals are publicly announced in order to receive community feedback. This proposal will only be implemented if approved by the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee. == Summary == This ibus-libpinyin release includes new features for English input and Table input. == Owner == * Name: [[User:pwu| Peng Wu]] * Email: pwu(a)redhat.com == Detailed Description == The ibus-libpinyin package contains two new features for English input and Table input. * When user inputs some English words, the English word will be listed in the candidates. * After user imports a custom table file, they can use the table mode to input the phrases defined by the custom table file. == Benefit to Fedora == The two new features will improve English input and Table input when using the "Intelligent Pinyin" input method. == Scope == * Proposal owners: ** Release ibus-libpinyin 1.13 ** Update the Fedora ibus-libpinyin package to version 1.13.0 * Other developers: * Release engineering: * Policies and guidelines: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Alignment with Objectives: == Upgrade/compatibility impact == == How To Test == When user input some English word, the English word will display in the candidate list. * Choose some frequent English word, try to input the word in pinyin mode, the word may appear in the candidate list. * Input some English word with initial capital letter, the input method will switch to English input mode automatically. After user imported some table file, press 'u' or 'U', it will use the content of the table file to input the phrase. Here are the detailed steps: # Read the table file format description in the setup dialog # Prepare the table file and import the table file in the setup dialog # Press "u" to switch to table input mode # Input some character by table code defined in the imported table file == User Experience == The two features will speed up English input and table input in "Intelligent Pinyin" input method. == Dependencies == == Contingency Plan == * Contingency mechanism: (What to do? Who will do it?) N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Contingency deadline: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Blocks release? N/A (not a System Wide Change) Revert the ibus-libpinyin package to the last stable version. == Documentation == N/A (not a System Wide Change) == Release Notes == The ibus-libpinyin package will make English input and Table input in the "Intelligent Pinyin" input method easier. -- Ben Cotton He / Him / His Fedora Program Manager Red Hat TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis

F37 proposal: SELinux Parallel Autorelabel (Self-Contained Change proposal)
by Ben Cotton 15 Jul '22

15 Jul '22

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/SELinux_Parallel_Autorelabel This document represents a proposed Change. As part of the Changes process, proposals are publicly announced in order to receive community feedback. This proposal will only be implemented if approved by the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee. == Summary == After a system's SELinux mode is switched from disabled to enabled, or after an administrator runs `fixfiles onboot`, SELinux autorelabel will be run in parallel by default. == Owner == * Name: [[User:plautrba| Petr Lautrbach]] * Email: plautrba(a)redhat.com == Detailed Description == SELinux tools `restorecon` and `fixfiles` recently gained the ability to relabel files in parallel using the `-T nthreads` option. This option is currently not used in the automatic relabel after reboot. When users want/need the parallel relabeling they have to specify the option explicitly (e.g. `fixfiles -T 0 onboot`). With this change `-T 0` (0 == use all available CPU cores) will be the default for `fixfiles onboot` and users will have to use `fixfiles -T 1 onboot` to force it to use only one thread. The rationale is that when autorelabel runs, there are no other resource-intensive processes running on the system, so it's fine (and actually better) to use all available parallelism to speed up the task and get to a fully booted system faster. == Benefit to Fedora == Faster reboot after switching back to an SELinux enabled system or when triggering autorelabel explicitly. == Scope == * Proposal owners: ** Update `/usr/libexec/selinux/selinux-autorelabel` to use `-T 0` by default. * Other developers: * Release engineering: * Policies and guidelines: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Alignment with Objectives: == Upgrade/compatibility impact == == How To Test == # boot with SELinux disabled - add `selinux=0` to the kernel command line # reboot # store the time it took # run `fixfiles -T 1 onboot` # reboot # the latter reboot should take longer time == User Experience == Systems should be up and running faster after SELinux autorelabel. == Dependencies == == Contingency Plan == * Contingency mechanism: (What to do? Who will do it?) N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Contingency deadline: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Blocks release? N/A (not a System Wide Change), Yes/No == Documentation == N/A (not a System Wide Change) -- Ben Cotton He / Him / His Fedora Program Manager Red Hat TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/BIND_9.18 This document represents a proposed Change. As part of the Changes process, proposals are publicly announced in order to receive community feedback. This proposal will only be implemented if approved by the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee. == Summary == (not provided) == Owner == * Name: [[User:pemensik| Petr Menšík]] * Email: <pemensik(a)redhat.com> == Detailed Description == ISC BIND9 will be upgraded to new major release version 9.18.x. It introduces new features and changes. It will also remove some packages provided before. == Benefit to Fedora == The most recent major release will be provided, with some notable features: * Support to DNS over TLS and DNS over HTTPS servers. Both authoritative and resolver modes. * Reworked internal connection handling using libuv * RNDC channel does not support unix sockets [https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/-/issues/1759] * Zone transfers over [https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc9103.html DNS over TLS] were added, both incoming and outgoing. * dig is now able to send queries using DNS over TLS * dig is now able to send queries using DNS over HTTPS == Scope == * Proposal owners: The update required update of bind-dyndb-ldap package (part of Freeipa suite), but otherwise it is isolated change. * Other developers: Any developers * Change pull request: [https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/bind/pull-request/13 bind PR#13] * Release engineering: * Policies and guidelines: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Alignment with Objectives: == Upgrade/compatibility impact == Upgrade should be smooth from 9.16.x, without significant issues. Incompatibility existed with bind-dyndb-ldap, but that were resolved. === PKCS11 removal === Native PKCS11 builds in separate '''bind-pkcs11''' package and '''bind-pkcs11-utils''' will be not longer built. It used to read directly pkcs11 plugins, but it will be supported only indirectly using OpenSSL pkcs11 engine. Following commands would be removed: * pkcs11-keygen * pkcs11-destroy * pkcs11-list * pkcs11-tokens All their actions should be possible using ''pkcs11-tool'' from ''opensc'' package or ''p11tool'' from ''gnutls-utils'' package. * dnssec-*-pkcs11 commands would be removed too, but they have simple replacement using ''-E pkcs11'' parameter to their respective normal dnssec-* tool. === Python isc module === The utilities ''dnssec-checkds'', ''dnssec-coverage'', and ''dnssec-keymgr'' have been removed from '''bind-dnssec-utils''' package. Also '''python3-bind''' python module is no longer supported by ISC upstream and therefore removed from a bind package. DNSSEC features formerly provided by these utilities are now integrated into named. See the [https://bind9.readthedocs.io/en/v9_18_4/reference.html#dnssec-policy-grammar dnssec-policy configuration option] for more details. === Map file format === Support for the ''map'' zone file format (''masterfile-format map;'') has been removed. Use ''raw'' format instead, which has similar performance and less issues. === Removed options === Previously deprecated options were removed and are no longer accepted in ''/etc/named.conf''. Their full list can be found on [https://bind9.readthedocs.io/en/v9_18_4/notes.html#removed-features removed features] release notes in Upstream. == How To Test == (not supplied) == User Experience == * Users will get simple tools to query also encrypted DNS servers. * Recent improvements packaged. * Simplified DNSSEC maintenance of both keys and signatures via ''dnssec-policy'' == Dependencies == bind-dyndb-ldap would be built together with bind package. It were upgraded to version 11.10 to support BIND 9.18 release. == Contingency Plan == * Contingency mechanism: (What to do? Who will do it?) N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Contingency deadline: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Blocks release? N/A (not a System Wide Change), Yes/No == Documentation == N/A (not a System Wide Change) -- Ben Cotton He / Him / His Fedora Program Manager Red Hat TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis

F37 proposal: Public release of the Anaconda Web UI preview image (Self-Contained Change proposal)
by Ben Cotton 15 Jul '22

15 Jul '22

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Anaconda_Web_UI_preview_image This document represents a proposed Change. As part of the Changes process, proposals are publicly announced in order to receive community feedback. This proposal will only be implemented if approved by the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee. == Summary == The work on Web UI for the Anaconda installer has advanced enough so that it is possible to create and publish self contained preview images. == Owner == * Name: [[User:m4rtink| Martin Kolman]] * Email: mkolman(a)redhat.com == Detailed Description == Even though still very simple the new Anaconda Web UI is now far enough to support a simple installation workflow from a self-contained image while demonstrating all the main aspects of the new UI, such as: * flexible Wizard layout * responsive PatternFly components * new style built-in help * local and remote access to the Web UI For this we will create a self-contained boot.iso style image with a built-in tar-payload (so that the image can work even without network access) based on the latest Anaconda upstream code. We aim to have the image available for download just after the F37 release (so that the tar-payload can contain final F37 release content) and then updated automatically in regular intervals. That way the rather active Web UI development of the Web UI will be reflected in the up-to-date installation image, as well as any feedback and community PRs. == Benefit to Fedora == The Anaconda Web UI will provide modern responsive user interface based on a well known and widely used toolkit (PatternFly) and backed by proven Cockpit tooling. The screen layout is based on latest UX design guidelines as well as usability testing of the new interface and extensive mockup work. There are improvements in developer experience as well due to the more modern & more mainstream UI technology chosen and powerful Cockpit test tooling (rich unit-test as well as pixel-test framework). The stateless property of the Web UI allows almost live-coding style of UI development. This should make it easier to work on the Anaconda Web UI for not only the Anaconda team, addon developer but also for any interested contributors. Remote Web UI access should also provide a much better experience than the slow and inefficient VNC based remote GUI installation support Anaconda has today. Due to no need for local rendering remotely driven GUI installations on a constrained hardware with minimal installation images should become possible. == Scope == * Proposal owners: The Anaconda team will setup and maintain an automated Web UI preview image creation pipeline, with the image being available via a web server on the Fedora infrastructure. It will be a '''preview image only''', not an official Fedora deliverable and it will not influence Fedora release criteria in any way. * Other developers: Other developers and Fedora users are welcome to try the image once it is released and to provide feedback. * Release engineering: * Policies and guidelines: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Alignment with Objectives: == Upgrade/compatibility impact == (not supplied) == How To Test == Download the Anaconda Web UI preview image and boot it on VM or hardware that contains no important data. Install using the Web UI locally, alternatively try using the Web UI remotely. The installed OS should be functional but its testing or any issues with it are currently out of scope for the Anaconda Web UI preview image. To provide feedback use one of the Anaconda team communication channels: * IRC: [https://web.libera.chat/#anaconda #anaconda] on libera.chat * mailing list: anaconda-devel(a)lists.fedoraproject.org - https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/anaconda-devel@lists.fedorapr… * Github Discussion: https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/discussions == User Experience == Should be improved compared to the current GTK interface. == Dependencies == (not supplied) == Contingency Plan == * Contingency mechanism: If we hit some blocking technical issues, the image will be published later. * Contingency deadline: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Blocks release? N/A (not a System Wide Change), Yes/No == Documentation == N/A (not a System Wide Change) -- Ben Cotton He / Him / His Fedora Program Manager Red Hat TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis

List of long term FTBFS packages to be retired in August
by Miro Hrončok 12 Jul '22

12 Jul '22

Dear maintainers. Based on the current fail to build from source policy, the following packages will be retired from Fedora 37 approximately one week before branching (August 2022). Policy: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Fails_to_build_from_source_Fails… The packages in rawhide were not successfully built at least since Fedora 35. This report is based on dist tags. Packages collected via: https://github.com/hroncok/fedora-report-ftbfs-retirements/blob/master/ftbf… If you see a package that was built, please let me know. If you see a package that should be exempted from the process, please let me know and we can work together to get a FESCo approval for that. If you see a package that can be rebuilt, please do so.

Spins keepalive
by Gregory Bartholomew 06 Jul '22

06 Jul '22

FESco previously approved a requirement that Spin/Labs owners send a keepalive request in order to keep building the spin or lab. I have opened Pagure issues[1] for all Spins and Labs listed on the wiki[2]. If you are the owner of one of those spins and labs, please reply in the appropriate ticket by 19 July 2022 to indicate the spin should continue to be produced. If there is a spin or lab that does not have an open ticket, please create one[3]. The reasoning for this is to not ship spins that are not actively maintained. Future improvements to the release process that will allow for teams to self-publish solutions will eventually remove the need for these keepalives.

F37 proposal: Preset All Systemd Units on First Boot (Self-Contained Change proposal)
by Ben Cotton 06 Jul '22

06 Jul '22

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Preset_All_Systemd_Units_on_First_Bo… This document represents a proposed Change. As part of the Changes process, proposals are publicly announced in order to receive community feedback. This proposal will only be implemented if approved by the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee. == Summary == Systemd will execute the equivalent of '''systemctl preset-all''' when an unconfigured system is booted ([https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/machine-id.html#First%20Bo… "First Boot"] condition). This means that units will be enabled or disabled according to the preset configuration. We currently do the equivalent of '''systemctl preset-all --preset-mode=enable-only''', and this will be extended to also disable units, i.e. '''systemctl preset-all --preset-mode=full'''. Any units which are manually symlinked but presets say they shouldn't (which is against the packaging guidelines for packaged units) will be disabled. Note that this applies to "first boot" only, i.e. to boot from an image without ''/etc'' fully populated. In does not apply to systems that were installed using Anaconda. == Owner == * Name: [[User:jlebon| Jonathan Lebon]] * Name: [[User:Zbyszek| Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek]] * Email: zbyszek at in.waw.pl, jlebon at redhat.com == Detailed Description == Our [https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Scriptlets/#_syst… guidelines] say that units that are packaged in rpms must be enabled through macros (''%systemd_post'') and the preset system. Almost all packages conform to this, so effectively their enablement state follows the preset config. When the system is installed, or more precisely when ''systemd.rpm'' is installed, we do ''preset-all''. But for historical reasons, when booting an unconfigured system ("first boot") we only 'enable' units in this fashion. In Fedora and RHEL CoreOS, some symlinks are created in the golden image, but should be disabled in the local image after local preset configuration has been inserted. To make this work, the call in systemd will be changed to execute the equivalent of ''preset-all --preset-mode=full'', making enablement during "first boot" more like enablement during an Anaconda installation. == Benefit to Fedora == * CoreOS can insert local preset configuration through Ignition and this configuration will be applied on the first boot. * Users can do something similar with local preset configuration on distributed images. * The system is made a bit simpler and easier to understand, because we can say that "units are enabled/disabled after installation as specified by the preset system". * Users can call ''systemctl preset-all'' at any time to apply preset-configuration. If no local changes to configuration have been made, ''preset-all'' would make no changes to unit state. If units have been enabled or disabled, ''preset-all'' would return unit enablement to the pristine state after installation. == Scope == * Proposal owners: ** implement patch for systemd to configure preset-all mode on first boot (https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/15205) ** build systemd with this mode changed to ''--preset-mode=full'' ** provide pull requests for two packages which have been identified to not use the preset system for enablement to conform to the packaging guidelines (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2070862, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2070726) * Other developers: review and merge the pull requests * Release engineering: N/A * Policies and guidelines: none, this change is about following the guidelines more closely * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Alignment with Objectives: == Upgrade/compatibility impact == None. == How To Test == * On a newly installed system, with arbitrary set of packages: call ''systemctl preset-all''. This should result in no changes. * On a system which is booted from an unconfigured image (e.g. the new Server VM image should qualify, see [[Changes/Supplement-server-by-kvm-vm-image]]): before the first boot, enable some units manually that are disabled in presets. After booting, those units should be disabled again. == User Experience == In general this change will be a noop for users, because it only applies to "first boot", i.e. to the case when a system is booted from a distributable image without local configuration and is configured when initially booted. In case where Anaconda is used to install images, /etc is populated before the first boot and the "first boot" condition never applies, thus this change is irrelevant. On systems installed from a "golden image" such as Fedora CoreOS, units will follow the preset configuration more closely. Thanks to the fixes to make packages conform to packaging guidelines, users can call '''preset-all''' to return the system to defaults. == Dependencies == == Contingency Plan == * Contingency mechanism: (What to do? Who will do it?) Systemd maintainers: flip back the default in systemd, rebuild. * Contingency deadline: N/A (not a System Wide Change) This can be done at any time up to the release. * Blocks release? No. == Documentation == N/A (not a System Wide Change) -- Ben Cotton He / Him / His Fedora Program Manager Red Hat TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis

F37 proposal: Officially Support Raspberry Pi 4 (Self-Contained Change proposal)
by Ben Cotton 05 Jul '22

05 Jul '22

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/RaspberryPi4 This document represents a proposed Change. As part of the Changes process, proposals are publicly announced in order to receive community feedback. This proposal will only be implemented if approved by the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee. == Summary == The work around Raspberry Pi 4 has been on going for a number of years, but we've never officially supported it due to lack of accelerated graphics and other key features. A few of us have led the push to get the accelerated graphics work over the line upstream so it now makes sense to enable this in Fedora and make support for the Raspberry Pi 4 more official. == Owner == * Name: [[User:pbrobinson| Peter Robinson]] * Email: [mailto:pbrobinson@fedoraproject.org pbrobinson(a)fedoraproject.org] == Detailed Description == The support for the Raspberry Pi ecosystem has been an ongoing evolution. The aim of this change is to support the Raspberry Pi 4 including the 4B, the 400 and the CM4 with IO board. Upstream now supports accelerated graphics using the V3D GPU for both OpenGL-ES and Vulkan. There's also enhancement to wired networking with support for PTPv2 on the CM4/4B. This work will polish the support for the Raspberry Pi 4 and include some wider general improvements to the Raspberry Pis that we officially support which include the RPi3 series and the Zero2W. There are some minor caveats here: * Support for WiFi on the Raspberry Pi 400 is out of scope as it's dependent on the engagement (in this case the lack of) the vendor, Synaptics, of the WiFi module shipped on this device providing generic upstream firmware. * The Raspberry Pi CM4 is an a module designed for IoT, Edge and Embedded use cases. We will test and support the CM4 on the official IO board, it should work on other devices that incorporate the CM4 assuming the vendor has their support in the upstream Raspberry Pi firmware/overlays. * Further device support around audio and other such pieces will be reviewed as part of the process. == Benefit to Fedora == The Raspberry Pi 4 is a widely available, reasonably prices device. It has worked well in Fedora for some time in IoT and Server use cases, and now with a fully accelerated graphics stack available it's a great device from a price-per-performance perspective, and it has a wide ecosystem, so fully supporting this in Fedora makes a compelling case. == Scope == * Proposal owners: ** Ensure any patches required are accepted upstream ** Work with kernel, mesa and other maintainers to ensure everything is as it should be ** Test * Other developers: ** No direct impact, those already using the device in non-graphical use cases should see no impact. * Release engineering: [https://pagure.io/releng/issue/10872 #10872] * Policies and guidelines: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) == Upgrade/compatibility impact == There is no upgrade impact. Those running Fedora on the Raspberry Pi 4 previously will, depending on their use case, get an enhanced experience. == How To Test == * Buy a Raspberry Pi 4 (if you can) * Test your favourite aarch64 Edition, Spin in particular the desktop environments such as Workstation. == User Experience == The experience should now include fully accelerated graphics. == Dependencies == No external dependencies outside of specific work relating to the specified hardware. == Contingency Plan == * Contingency mechanism: None * Contingency deadline: GA * Blocks release? No. * Blocks product? No. == Documentation == Update the Raspberry Pi FAQ and other documentation including migrating it to docs.fedoraproject.org == Release Notes == Fedora now supports the Raspberry Pi 4! -- Ben Cotton He / Him / His Fedora Program Manager Red Hat TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis

F37 proposal: LXQt 1.1.0 (Self-Contained Change proposal)
by Ben Cotton 05 Jul '22

05 Jul '22

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/LXQt_1.1 This document represents a proposed Change. As part of the Changes process, proposals are publicly announced in order to receive community feedback. This proposal will only be implemented if approved by the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee. == Summary == Update LXQt to 1.1.0 in Fedora. == Owner == * Name: [[User:Zsun|Zamir SUN]] * Email: zsun#AT#fedoraproject.org  == Detailed Description == LXQt 1.1.0 released with a bunch of bugfixes and new features including but not limited to Qt6 integration, appearance changes etc. It's always good to keep Fedora users running on most recent software. Detailed LXQt release note is available [https://lxqt-project.org/release/2022/04/15/lxqt-1-1-0/ here]. == Benefit to Fedora == This change brings bug fixes and enhancements to LXQt in Fedora. == Scope == * Proposal owners: Update all the LXQt related packages in Fedora. * Other developers: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Release engineering: https://pagure.io/releng/issue/10870 * Policies and guidelines: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) == Upgrade/compatibility impact == N/A (not a System Wide Change) == How To Test == Install using the spin, netinstall or DVD. Or upgrade from older release. Then users should be able to test by doing any daily work. == User Experience == There will be a better user experience and some new features to explore. == Dependencies == This update is pretty self contained. == Contingency Plan == * Contingency mechanism: If I cannot make it happen, I'll just do not merge side-tag into f37 branch. * Contingency deadline: Fedora 37 Beta Freeze * Blocks release? N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Blocks product? N/A == Documentation == N/A (not a System Wide Change) -- Ben Cotton He / Him / His Fedora Program Manager Red Hat TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis

signing vault down (2022-07-04)
by Kevin Fenzi 04 Jul '22

04 Jul '22

Greetings. We were having some issues with the management interface on our primary signing vault. The server was power cycled, but the management is still not functioning, and now the server isn't processing signing requests further. Due to the US holidays there's no one on site right now, but we will hopefully have someone there early tomorrow morning to troubleshoot and bring things back up. Until this server is back up, builds will queue up in signing/pending koji tags and not move forward. This means they will not land in the buildroot or be available as updates. Once the server is processing again the backlog should be processed, so there's no need to do anything special. Thank you for your patience. kevin

F37 proposal: GNU Toolchain Update (glibc 2.36, binutils 2.38) (late System-Wide Change proposal)
by Ben Cotton 01 Jul '22

01 Jul '22

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/GNUToolchainF37 This document represents a proposed Change. As part of the Changes process, proposals are publicly announced in order to receive community feedback. This proposal will only be implemented if approved by the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee. == Summary == Update the Fedora 37 GNU Toolchain to glibc 2.36, binutils 2.38. The set of core GNU Toolchain packages for Fedora 37 are as follows: * GNU C Compiler 12 (first released in Fedora 36) ** Associated runtimes for C++ (libstdc++), Go (gccgo), OpenMP (gomp), Fortran (gfortran), D (phobos), Objective C/C++. * GNU Binary Utilities 2.38 (expected release in Fedora 37) * GNU C Library 2.36 (expected release in Fedora 37) * GNU Debugger 12 (immediately available in Fedora 35, 36, and 37) The glibc 2.36 change will be tracked in this top-level GNU Toolchain system-wide update. The binutils 2.38 change will be tracked in this top-level GNU Toolchain system-wide update. == Owner == * Name: [[User:codonell|Carlos O'Donell]] * Email: carlos(a)redhat.com == Detailed Description == The GNU Compiler Collection, GNU C Library, GNU Debugger, and GNU Binary Utilities make up the core part of the GNU Toolchain and it is useful for our users to transition these components as a complete implementation when making a new release of Fedora. The GNU C Library version 2.36 is expected to be released in the beginning of August 2022; we have started closely tracking the glibc 2.36 development code in Fedora Rawhide and are addressing any issues as they arise. Given the present schedule Fedora 37 will branch after the release of glibc 2.36. However, the mass rebuild schedule means Fedora 37 will mass rebuild (if required) before the final release of glibc 2.36, but after the ABI is frozen. The GNU Binutils version 2.38 was released in February 2022; and we have already been using this version of binutils in Fedora Rawhide successfully to build the distribution. Given the present schedule for Fedora 37 we will continue to use Binutils 2.38 for Fedora 37. == Benefit to Fedora == Stays up to date with latest features, improvements, security and bug fixes from gcc, glibc, binutils, and gdb upstream. The goal is to track and transition to the latest components of the GNU Toolchain. == Scope == * Proposal owners: Fedora Toolchain Team (gcc, glibc, binutils, gdb, ...) developers need to ensure that gcc, glibc, binutils, and gdb in rawhide are stable and ready for the Fedora 37 branch. * Other developers: Given that glibc is backwards compatible and we have been testing the new glibc in rawhide it should make very little impact when updated, except for the occasional deprecation warnings and removal of legacy interfaces from public header files. * Release engineering: A mass rebuild is strongly encouraged; [https://pagure.io/releng/issue/10865 #10865] * Policies and guidelines: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Alignment with Objectives: N/A == Upgrade/compatibility impact == Any source level changes required for glibc 2.36 will be noted here: https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Release/2.36#Packaging_Changes == How To Test == The GNU Compiler Collection has its own testsuite which is run during the package build and examined by the gcc developers before being uploaded. The GNU C Library has its own testsuite which is run during the package build and examined by the glibc developers before being uploaded. This test suite has over 6200 tests that run to verify the correct operation of the library. In the future we may also run the microbenchmark to look for performance regressions. The GNU Binutils has its own testsuite which is run during the package build and examined by binutils developers before being uploaded. The regression testsuite is run to verify the correct operation of the static linker and attendant utilities. The GNU Debugger has its own testsuite which is run during the package build and examined by gdb developers before being uploaded. The regression testsuite is run to verify the correct operation of the debugger. == User Experience == == Dependencies == All packages do not need to be rebuilt due to backwards compatibility. However, it is advantageous if a mass rebuild is performed during the Fedora 37 cycle. The mass rebuild would ensure all packages can be built with the newer compiler and core runtime. == Contingency Plan == * Contingency mechanism glibc: If glibc 2.36 proves too disruptive to compiling the distribution we could revert to 2.35, but given that Rawhide has started tracking glibc 2.36, no show-stopper problems are expected. At this point we can still revert to upstream version 2.35 if insurmountable problems appear, but to do so may require a mass rebuild to remove new symbols from the ABI/API. * Contingency mechanism binutils: If binutils 2.38 proves too distruptive to assembling and linking the distribution we could revert to 2.37, but given that Rawhide is using 2.38, no show-stopper problems are expected. At this point we can still revert if insurmountable problems appear, but to do so may require a mass rebuild if the defects involve generated binaries. * Contingency deadline: Fedora mass rebuild on 2022-07-20. * Blocks release? ** Yes, upgrading to glibc 2.36 does block the release. == Documentation == The gcc manual contains the documentation for the release and doesn't need any more additional work. The binutils manual contains the documentation for the release and doesn't need any more additional work. The glibc manual contains the documentation for the release and doesn't need any more additional work. The gdb manual contains the documentation for the release and doesn't need any more additional work. == Release Notes == The GNU C Library version 2.36 will be released at the beginning of August 2022. The current NEWS notes can be seen here as they are added: https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=blob;f=NEWS;hb=HEAD The GNU Binary Utilities version 2.38 was released February 2022. The current release notes can be seen here: https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2022-February/119721.html -- Ben Cotton He / Him / His Fedora Program Manager Red Hat TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis

F37 proposal: Linux Firmware Minimization (late System-Wide Change proposal)
by Ben Cotton 01 Jul '22

01 Jul '22

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Linux_Firmware_Minimization This document represents a proposed Change. As part of the Changes process, proposals are publicly announced in order to receive community feedback. This proposal will only be implemented if approved by the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee. == Summary == Split linux-firmware into more subpackages, and add the ability to automatically install firmware based on the hardware present == Owner == * Name: [[User:Salimma|Michel Alexandre Salim]], [[User:Dcavalca|Davide Cavalca]] * Email: michel(a)fb.com, dcavalca(a)fb.com == Detailed Description == The `linux-firmware` RPM is very large (175M src.rpm, 287M *.noarch.rpm per 20211027-126) that bundles most of the system firmware loaded by the kernel, regardless of whether it’s actually needed. Some additional firmwares are already split up into individual subpackages. This change would extend that, splitting out most firmare into appropriate subpackages. The Change would also make the subpackages `Supplements` the appropriate `modalias(...)` for the hardware they support and `Provides` `firmware(kmodname/firmwarefile.bin)` Candidates for splitting out: * CPU firmwares * GPU firmwares * Non-Intel wifi firmwares * Bluetooth firmwares Conversely some firmware could probably be grouped together, e.g. have iwlwifi-firmware that pulls in iwl*-firmware (corresponding to openSUSE's kernel-firmware-iwlwifi). We will also introduce `linux-firmware-all` that will pull in all subpackages; this will make it easier to manage the firmware packages in different Fedora variants. A DNF plugin will be written to make use of the `Supplements` metadata to automatically install the appropriate firmware packages based on the hardware present on the system (see openSUSE's `libzypp`: https://github.com/openSUSE/libzypp/blob/a34d857dbe3b16d4a7e0219cd213cc5a87… and https://github.com/openSUSE/libzypp/blob/7f345ea4892fd02345e8de47c2a08ab5b1…) == Feedback == == Benefit to Fedora == This would save a lot of disk space on Fedora installations, and make it easier to test individual firmware updates by replacing a single subpackage. It will also bring us into alignment with openSUSE (see their [https://code.opensuse.org/package/kernel-firmware/blob/master/f/kernel-firm… kernel-firmware.spec]). == Scope == * Proposal owners: ** Create test COPR with proposed changes ** Add some additional firmware subpackages ** Add the required metadata (supplements, provides) ** Write DNF plugin to make use of supplements ** Write libdnf plugin for PackageKit (and in the future, microdnf) ** refactor [https://pagure.io/fedora-comps/blob/main/f/comps-f37.xml.in#_2887-2903 comps for F37] * Other developers: ** Validate that installation works with iwl*-firmware replaced by iwlwifi-firmware ** Test the DNF plugin ** If it works well, preinstall the DNF plugin and stop installing iwlwifi-firmware or any of the iwl*-firmware * Release engineering: [https://pagure.io/releng/issues #Releng issue number] * Policies and guidelines: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Alignment with Objectives: == Upgrade/compatibility impact == No compatibility impact. == How To Test == * Enable the test COPR * Verify that after upgrading, no firmware subpackages are removed * Install the DNF plugin * Verify that the DNF plugin works: `dnf mark remove` a firmware package that is needed, then verify that `dnf autoremove` does not remove it * `dnf mark remove` all firmware packages, and verify that `dnf autoremove` only remove the unneeded packages == User Experience == More disk space available, no functional changes. == Dependencies == No dependency, `linux-firmware` is not required by any package == Contingency Plan == * Contingency mechanism: If the plugin is not ready in time, the other changes would preserve the status quo. So we can postpone shipping the DNF plugin to F38. * Contingency deadline:<br>Decide on whether to postpone the DNF plugin by beta freeze * Blocks release? No == Documentation == Documentation will be added in [https://hackmd.io/KnHbJ40pQ8eJjc1H80R10w this HackMD] == Release Notes == -- Ben Cotton He / Him / His Fedora Program Manager Red Hat TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis
