[offtopic] Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams
by Arthur Pemberton 09 Jan '07

09 Jan '07

Hi guys, I apologize ahead of time for the offtopic nature of this thread, and if desired, I will cease any continuation. Threads over on fedora-extras-list have brought my attention to the e-dissappearance of one "Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams". This guy has helped me out many times over of #fedora, and was always online, despite me changing time zone twice - to the point where I asked if he was a bot. He seemed to have also had a large load in package maintaince. Fedora being partly about the community, I have to ask: does anyone know what happened to this guy? His online presence seems to have simply ceased as of May-2006. I searched Gmail for emails from him, the last was in May. His blog (http://www.ivazquez.net) seems also to have gone quiet as of May. Just felt that the guy has helped me enough to at least care if he suddenly died or something. Peace. -- To be updated...

Move Evolution to Extras?
by David Woodhouse 03 Jan '07

03 Jan '07

Evolution is fairly much broken in FC5, and there's little movement even on the 'this mail crashes Evolution' bugs, let alone the "Evolution is totally unusable with IMAP" bugs. What are we going to do about it? One option might be to move it to Extras in the hope that someone will actually start to look after it there. Or perhaps just drop it entirely? Any better ideas? Volunteers? -- dwmw2

Eclipse on Linux Distributions eclipse.org project approved
by Andrew Overholt 09 Dec '06

09 Dec '06

Hi, At EclipseCon 2006, Ben Konrath and I met Matt Ryan from Novell. We talked about the general issues hurting Eclipse adoption in the Linux and FOSS communities. Matt took the lead out of our conversations and along with “Eclipse people” from other major distros, we proposed [1] the “Eclipse on Linux Distributions” project at eclipse.org. Last week, the project had its Creation Review [2] and it was a success! I’d like to see most, if not all, of the work that our group is doing — ChangeLog, autotools, specfile editing, packaging tools, etc. — get more visibility as part of this project. We’re also looking forward to collaborating with developers and packagers from other distributions. Having this work under the eclipse.org umbrella will give it better exposure and hopefully help in achieving our goal of bringing Eclipse technology to Linux distribution users. As usual, everyone is invited to join in our work. We hope to see some of you on IRC (#fedora-java), fedora-devel-java-list(a)redhat.com, the upstream mailing lists (linux-distros-dev(a)eclipse.org ... at least for now - it may change to be linuxtools-dev(a)eclipse.org but that's yet to be finalized), etc. Thanks, Andrew [1] http://www.eclipse.org/proposals/linux-distro/ [2] http://www.eclipse.org/proposals/linux-distro/LinuxDistrosCreationReview.pdf

removing termcap
by Miroslav Lichvar 09 Dec '06

09 Dec '06

Hi, I would like to see termcap and libtermcap removed, and to use ncurses everywhere. termcap is an obsolete system for describing terminal capabilities, it has annoying size limitations for the description and libtermcap is an old, unmaintained code. The ncurses library has a termcap emulation which is internally using terminfo database. It isn't 100% accurate (see curs_termcap(3)), but should be ok for most applications. libtermcap's API and ABI are compatible with ncurses. So what would be required to replace completely libtermcap with ncurses? - Move libncurses.so.* and/or libncursesw.so.* to /lib{,64}. - Move the most important entries in the terminfo database to /etc/terminfo or /lib{,64}/terminfo. Binary files don't fit /etc well, but the second option isn't much better as it will duplicate the entries on multiarch. - Rebuild packages currently using libtermcap against ncurses. It would be good to choose one of libncurses{,w} and link all binaries with it; linking with libncursesw will probably require more patching of configure scripts as some of them are prepared for libncurses already. Any thoughts?

Static linking considered harmful
by Jakub Jelinek 04 Dec '06

04 Dec '06

Hi! We should more proactively discourage static linking in FC7+, for reasons for that see http://people.redhat.com/drepper/no_static_linking.html Removing libc.a would be most effective, but I'm afraid we still need a handful of statically linked binaries for boot time initialization and system recovery utilities. So, I think it would be best if we could analyze what in FC7/FE7 is linked statically, why, if it really needs to be linked that way and what *.a libraries does it link in and kill all other *.a libraries (unless the library is only in *.a form, examples libbfd.a, libc_nonshared.a, libpthread_nonshared.a, libsupc++.a, libgfortranbegin.a) and kill all other libraries. E.g. ideally we'd drop libpthread.a, librt.a, libstdc++.a, libgfortran.a, libboost*.a, all GUI libs that have also *.so libs, etc. Thoughts? Jakub

Xorg 7.2 RC2 and rawhide
by Joachim Frieben 30 Nov '06

30 Nov '06

>Adam Jackson ajax at nwnk.net >Mon Nov 13 15:51:56 PST 2006 > >I've seen distressingly few reports against 7.2. It looks good to >me, but I have notoriously poor judgement, so I would appreciate >other people with poor judgement chiming in and saying it works >for them as well. Referring to the above citation from the Xorg mailing list I wonder wether/when we can expect Xorg 7.2 RC2 [RC3] to hit rawhide. It would multiply feedback before the final release dramatically, so it's a pity that we are still stuck with Xorg 7.1. Anything in the pipeline?

The "recent" proposals.
by Ahm ed 30 Nov '06

30 Nov '06

Hello, I am Ahmed. I just wanted to voice to the devs my excitement at the recent news (recent for me) of merging extras and core, as well as the news about pungi and pilgrim (especially about pilgrim). I think these tools will provide us with more versatility. I have also heard of a sysv replacement that may or may not be in FC7 (any news?) also sounds like an excellent advancement. I understand that many of these are currently just being tossed around and I wanted to voice that yes indeed these tools all sound very useful and I believe they would be an excellent addition to fedora core (or is it Fedora Complete?). In general I believe you guys have done a great job, and I applaud your resolve in continuing to provide an excellent distro based on FOSS and free of the binary proprietary junk that other distros are starting to pump into the kernel. (I have found that it leads to far greater stability.) Good luck to you all and thank you for your hard work. p.s. Sorry for the lack of order in this, I am currently swamped w/ school, I just felt it necessary to voice my support for the recent "developments".
