F21 install experience on iMac (5K retina)
by Andreas Tunek
Hi Fedora
I just wanted to give my impressions on the F21 install experience on
an iMac (but I guess it is applicable for any mac).
I installed F21 workstation on an Retina iMac after I made half the
SSD "free space". The installer set up all partitions and I went with
the default. Everything worked and it didn't mess up my macos install.
(I am a bit jaded since a previous fedora upgrade (F17 -> F18 I think)
made another mac unbootable.) So far everything seems to work fine
(except for some stuff I'll mention below). So great work everybody
involved!
Problems
Linux can't find the correct resolution of the screen, see
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1184204
The computer seems to boot into Linux as default, it would have been
nice if you could choose that somehow.
Again, I am really happy with F21!

Python 3 as a Default - Status
by Bohuslav Kabrda
Hi all,
since the "Python 3 as a Default" change [1] has been accepted a while ago and is scheduled for F22, I'd like to share with you the status.
The proposed change [1] mentions several goals that should be reached to pronounce python3 the "default":
1) DNF is the default package manager instead of Yum, which only works with Python 2
2) Python 3 is the only Python implementation in the minimal buildroot
3) Python 3 is the only Python implementation on the LiveCD
4) Anaconda and all of its dependencies run on Python 3
5) cloud-init and all of its dependencies run on Python 3
Before I go through the 5 goals, let me explain the approach that has been taken so far:
There are basically two types of packages (from Fedora's point of view) that depend on Python: "libraries" and "applications" (note that the distinction is intentionally not very clear, there are packages that are both)
"Libraries" are, simply put, Python extension modules, those that live in %{python2_sitelib} and %{python2_sitearch} in python2 builds. "Libraries" were receiving both upstream and downstream care from the people working on the change - upstream porting and downstream python3- subpackage additions, to also put files in %{python3_sitelib} and %{python3_sitearch}. We could afford to do the subpackage additions downstream during F21 lifecycle, since this doesn't change anything, it's just one more binary RPM that's spit out of the SRPM build process.
"Applications" are stuff that users run (an important characteristic is that users don't care under which Python the application runs) - like Anaconda. "Applications" have been receiving some upstream patches, but weren't rebuilt with Python 3 yet. The reason for not rebuilding yet is that we first wanted to make sure that we've ported all "applications" upstream to be able to switch them all to Python 3 in Fedora at once - we wanted to be sure we wouldn't introduce both Python runtimes to livemedia, cloudimages, etc. As of now, Python 2 is still the suggested Python runtime to build "applications" against. We will start filing bugs to rebuild against Python 3 once we're sure that the switch can safely happen (which I think is now according to the points below).
Let's go through the 5 goals:
1) DNF will be the default package manager for F22 [2], so everything is ok here.
2) One of our goals was to not make minimal buildroot larger. The only package from minimal buildroot requiring python (python-libs to be precise) is gdb, which is compatible with python3 in upstream (but it's considered to be an "application", so it hasn't been rebuilt yet). So minimal buildroot is fine.
3) As for LiveCD, we now have more of these - Workstation, Server and all the various flavours and spins. Let me go through Workstation and Server:
Workstation:
Fedora LiveCDs have, since at least Fedora 20, included both Python 2 and Python 3 runtimes (the primary reason for having Python 3 back then was AFAICS speech-dispatcher, which is Python 3 only in upstream). Although we may not be able to port all libraries and applications (but we may, there's still chance!) from workstation livecd to Python 3, the fact that it already ships both runtimes makes me think that we should build as much apps as possible with Python 3.
Server:
Because of giants like samba and freeipa, I think we won't be able to achieve python2-free server livecd for F22. But as it is with Workstation, I think we should proceed and build as much with Python 3 as possible.
4) Anaconda is work in progress. I'm communicating with Anaconda devs quite regularly and everything looks promising.
5) cloud-init is a problem. Basically, Python 3 cloud-init is the only thing blocking the cloud images (*). Other packages are ready or being worked on. The problem here is that cloud-init upstream is really unresponsive about Python 3 porting (patch is submitted in their bug tracker [3]) - if someone knows these people, please help us by pinging them.
Attached to this mail, you'll find 3 files (fedora-cloud-base.txt, fedora-install-server.txt, fedora-live-workstation.txt). Each one of them is a result of automated script that tells with quite a good certainty what Python dependent packages are on a livecd/image generated by a kickstart with the same name.
The files have two sections: "Good" and "Bad". "Good" packages are either "libraries" that have python3- subpackage or "applications" that have already been built with Python 3. "Bad" packages are either "libraries" not having python3- subpackage or "applications" built with Python 2. Note that lots of applications are now "bad" even though their code is Python 3 compatible, they just haven't been built with Python 3 yet. Also, "Bad" contains packages that will not be ported at all and will disappear from livecd, e.g. pyliblzma or yum.
We're tracking all packages needed for Workstation and Cloud images at [4] - feel free to grab anything unassigned there or help us pushing our patches upstream. All help is welcome!
All in all, I think we're in a good shape and I suggest that we move on by building all current "applications" (those that are Python 3 compatbile in upstream) with Python 3. I already suggested a change to Python guidelines that all *new* "applications" should be built with Python 3 if possible [5].
(*) Assuming cloud images are created out of fedora-cloud-base.ks, which I'd like someone to confirm.

GNOME glitches in F21 - Should they be reported and against which components?
by Alexander Ploumistos
Hello,
A few days ago I upgraded my main workstation to F21 and I've noticed a few
annoying glitches, but I don't know if they are all worth reporting and
against which components they should be reported.
1. Window size and position:
While some applications start with their last window size and placement,
others do not; among them, most notable is firefox. It usually starts
maximized and then switches to something like a 7:2 ratio. When it is
maximized and then unmaximized, it never returns to its original size.
2. Random rearrangement of icons on the desktop:
I have organized my current projects and things to do in a dozen folders on
my desktop, arranged in a grid. So far, this has happened to me three
times: Upon logging in, some of them were taken out of the grid and
randomly placed all over the desktop.
3. Icon inconsistencies in the message tray:
Some icons are 48x48, others 22x22 and others are not displayed at all. In
this screenshot
https://alexpl.fedorapeople.org/screenshots/gnome_message_tray.png
there are actually 8 icons: a seahorse notification that a signature was
good, solaar, dropbox (I don't know if our package is to blame or theirs),
mail-notification, spideroak, gnote, nut monitor and easystroke.
Now, I know I should report this to the maintainer of each package and some
have already been reported in BZ, but given the upcoming change to GNOME's
notification system, will these issues persist? Is it worth their time?
4. Settings migration was inconsistent:
While most of my settings from the previous version of GNOME were preserved
after the upgrade to 3.14.2, others were not; e.g. the window action key
was preserved, middle click on the titlebar to lower a window wasn't.

libicu upgrade to 54.1 with soname bump in rawhide
by Eike Rathke
Hi,
I plan to upgrade libicu to 54.1 in rawhide end of this week or next
week, which as usual comes with a soname bump. David Tardon will help
with rebuilding the dependent packages.

autoreconf on build
by Richard W.M. Jones
I notice that Debian recently [since July 2014] started to recommend
that packagers run autoreconf on build. Their reasons are given here
and seem to be good ones:
https://wiki.debian.org/Autoreconf
In the interests of fairness I can think of two drawbacks too:
- newer versions of (especially) automake have not always been
improvements, and some upstreams may wish to stick with older ones
- autoreconf is slow
Debian have probably hit most of the bugs by now, and I think this is
a good recommendation that perhaps Fedora packagers should be
encouraged to follow too. What do you think?
Rich.

libmediaart soname and api change
by Yanko Kaneti
libmediaart in rawhide was upgraded to 1.9.0 (libmediaart-2.0) which
is an API/ABI incompatible break.
The dependencies - tracker and grilo-plugins have patches in upstream
git to adjust to the change and hopefully will be built for it in
rawhide later today.
Cheers

TBB rebase
by Petr Machata
Hello,
I'll rebase TBB to 4.3u2 next week. A scratch build is here:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=8665932
Client packages are as follows, their owners are CC'd.
adobe-source-libraries-0:1.0.43-23.fc22.src
freecad-0:0.14-5.fc22.src
gazebo-0:4.0.2-1.fc22.src
mrpt-0:1.0.2-10.fc22.src
openms-0:1.11.1-11.fc22.src
smesh-0:6.5.3.1-1.fc22.src
suitesparse-0:4.3.1-4.fc22.src
The soname didn't change. I reviewed the actual changes using abidiff,
and the only thing reported that I think is an actual ABI violation is
insertion of one virtual method. I don't think that's real however:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17861
So the current plan is to simply update TBB and not even bump and
rebuild clients, but if you could take your packages for a spin with the
scratch builds, and report back, that would be great.
Thank you,
Petr

F22 Self Contained Change: Vagrant
by Jaroslav Reznik
= Proposed Self Contained Change: Vagrant =
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Vagrant
Change owner(s): Josef Stribny <jstribny(a)redhat.com>
Provide Vagrant http://www.vagrantup.com/ with the libvirt provider
as a default.
== Detailed Description ==
Vagrant is an automation tool used to manage development environments
using virtualization and configuration management tools. It allows
developers and teams to work on their projects and test them in an
environment similar to production. Historically, Vagrant had a
dependency on VirtualBox, but the newer versions have a plugin system
allowing it to work with other virtualization technologies, including
libvirt. The plan is to package Vagrant with the support for libvirt
(coming as vagrant-libvirt plugin) replacing VirtualBox as a default
provider.
== Scope ==
* Proposal Owners: Initial work has been done in for Vagrant on F20
in a Copr repository. Patches and quick fixes should be cleaned up
or revisited. Also we need to depend on newer version of libvirt
through rubygem-fog. Some commits for that are already in upstream
repositories for vagrant-libvirt and fog. See upstream issue for
details.
* Other developers: N/A (not a System Wide Change)
* Release engineering: N/A (not a System Wide Change)
* Policies and guidelines: N/A (not a System Wide Change)
