fwupd license change
by Richard Hughes
Hi all,
Just a small unimportant notice that I'm required to do: fwupd changed
license from "GPLv2+ AND LGPLv2+" to just "LGPLv2+". The library was
always the LGPL bit, so this doesn't affect any other things linking
to libfwupd.

Detecting building package on rawhide
by Jan Pazdziora
Hello,
I try to create SWID Tags for Fedora and I'd like to be able to
distinguish when running the rpm build on rawhide, as opposed to
"released" version.
Checking rpm --showrc, I can see rawhide sets %{fedora} to 29 and
there does not seem any mention of rawhide in the showrc output.
What would people recommend to distinguish rawhide from non-rawhide?
For now I'm running the builds in copr but eventually I'd like for
it to work in koji as well.
Thank you,

Retire loki-lib
by Sergio Pascual
I would like to retire loki-lib.
It's a C++ library that hasn't been updated in nearly 10 years. It FTBS for
some releases (circa F23)
Repoquery says that nothing in Fedora depends on it.

QA/Development downtime 2018-06-07 2300 UTC - 2018-06-08 0300 UTC
by Stephen John Smoogen
Outage: db-qa server - 2018-06-07 23:00 UTC
There will be an outage starting at 2018-06-07 23:00 UTC, which will last
approximately 4 hours.
To convert UTC to your local time, take a look at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/UTCHowto
or run:
date -d '2018-06-07 23:00 UTC'
Reason for outage:
Currently the database server on the fedora qa network has only 2 CPUs
and limited ram. This is causing problems with waiverdb/resultsdb and
other tools needing to get builds in place. The databaseserver will be
moved to a different virtual server and given 8 additional cpus and
more ram.
Affected Services:
Bodhi -
Waiverdb
Greenwave
Resultsdb
Taskotron
OpenQA
QA Services
Unaffected Services:

Improving mactel-boot support for retina mac
by Harry Mallon
Hello all,
I am making some headway improving the Fedora look in the Mac firmware picker on Retina screens.
1. Providing retina scaled text
The text (as an image) is provided by fedora-logos and linked into /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/.disk_label by mactel-boot. To support retina screens a double scale one should be provided.
1a. fedora-logos
I cannot see a README about how the current bootloader/fedora.vol file was created. I have managed to make one with grub2 tools and DeJavu Mono but perhaps it was made with another method? Would fedora-logos take a pull request to add a fedora_2x.vol and fedora.vol.contentDetails file? Would it be preferred to be made with Linux tools (maybe even in the Makefile) or just made in macOS and copied to the git?
1b. mactel-boot
I cannot find an official upstream repo for mactel-boot. I have the source from the SRPM though and could provide a patch. Not sure where to send it.
2. Providing retina scaled images (fedora-logos again)
This is also something I am working on. I will have a patch for fedora-logos at some point. Currently a utility from libicns is used. At the current release version it doesn't support retina images, but in the master branch they have another tool that should work. However, they haven't done a release for years (I have requested one). This file is made in the Makefile so I think it is best if we continue to render this file in the Makefile. Is this something fedora-logos would take a pull req for? Would fedora-logos be happy with a custom c++ or python util which would assemble the icns file (using imagemagick as currently for the image conversion) if libicns is non responsive?
Best,
Harry
