sqlite over NFS (locking)
by Orion Poplawski
I just recently got bitten by issues accessing sqlite databases over NFS
(trying to run pungi on Fedora devel and putting the output on our F7
fileserver). Now, http://www.sqlite.org/faq.html#q5 explicitly states
that one should avoid this:
But use caution: this locking mechanism might not work correctly if the
database file is kept on an NFS filesystem. This is because fcntl() file
locking is broken on many NFS implementations. You should avoid putting
SQLite database files on NFS if multiple processes might try to access
the file at the same time.
Now, is NFS fctl() locking really broken going from Fedora devel to
Fedora 7? rpc.statd is running. Filesystem is exported "sync".

[RFC] /var versus /srv
by Casey Dahlin
Fedora has had the /srv directory in its default configuration for
awhile now, and I think its high time we used it. Under the latest FHS
specifications this is the correct place for /var/www and /var/ftp/pub
and the like.
Personally I think this is a long overdue change and its about time we
followed through on it. Service-provided files are very much on the
fringe of /var 's purpose (which tends to be application state info that
requires extended persistence). The location was no doubt chosen since
the media performance requirements tend to align (though after this
shift the average /var partition could probably be substantially smaller).
The counter argument is that we might well break some conventions
associated with individual packages. On this end the individual
maintainers will have to weigh in. httpd is a good choice for the first
thing to move, since the current directory structure supporting it
already deviate's widely from Apache's (horrifically awful) defaults.
Thoughts? Comments? Flames?

cvs access problem
by Paul F. Johnson
Hi,
Probably because I've not done anything for ages, my box doesn't like
cvs for fedora.
In my home directory, I've opened a terminal window and typed
export CVS_RSH=ssh
export CVSROOT=:pserver:my_user_name@cvs.fedoraproject.org:/cvs/pkgs
cd extras
cvs co common owners
cvs then throws back
no such user my_user_name in CVSROOT/passwd
(my_user_name is replaced with my actual user name)
Any ideas on what's going wrong?
TTFN
Paul

FYI: kernel 218 breaks iwl3945 and 4965
by Warren Togami

Please help to test kernels before they hit the nightly build.

I have untagged kernel-2.6.23-0.218.rc9.git1.fc8 because it is confirmed
to break WEP and WPA on iwl3945 on x86_64. iwl4965 showed similar
trouble. 218 didn't hit a public rawhide tree yet.
kernel-2.6.23-0.217.rc9.git1.fc8 works.

Fwd: Broken dependencies: sonata | gnome-python2-libegg
by Michał Bentkowski
Gnome-python2-libegg isn't in fact available in ppc64. However I took
a look into gnome-python2-extras spec file and it seems that
ExcludeArch: ppc64 is used only for gnome-python2-gdl subpackage. In
koji [1] I can see that no package is built under ppc64.
Does gnome-python2-extras need to be rebuilt or is it a bug in koji?
I don't want to ExcludeArch: ppc64 for sonata unless it's necessity.

printing problems with some applications
by Joseph Sacco
Evolution and evince no longer print after updating to the latest
version of rawhide [05-Oct-07]. Other applications print OK as does the
test page from the printer set up. I can also print text files from the
command line using lp.
Anyone else seeing this?

Mixing of macros and native commands in specs.
by Peter Lemenkov
Hello All!
Just for clarification - is it allowed to mix macros and native
command in spec-file? For instance
%make
make %{?_smp_mflags}
%install
%{_rm} -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT
make DESTDIR=%{buildroot} install
