Question about gcc test suite failures
by Tomasz Kłoczko
Recently I've been trying to trace some gcc issue so I've downloaded my gcc
src.rpm to try to build my own package.
During review build log I found a lot of test suite failures.
Initially I've been thinking that something is wrong with my devel env so
I've peaked on official gcc build logs and I found that I have even less
such failures than number of such issues on rawhide builders.
Mine package:
$ grep ^FAIL: -c gcc.out
780
Vs. official:
$ curl -s
https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/681/32910681/build.log |
grep -c FAIL:
1114
Some of those failures seems are expected as I'm able to find in my build
log fragments like:
=== gnat Summary for unix/ ===
# of expected passes 2976
# of expected failures 23
# of unsupported tests 3
However I found other like:
=== gcc Summary for unix/ ===
# of expected passes 143765
# of unexpected failures 101
# of unexpected successes 25
# of expected failures 554
# of unsupported tests 2225
Did all those unexpected failures are symptoms some not finished
modifications and/or not updated test units or those failures says that
something really is wrong with gcc?
At the moment I'm not sure but I think that similar situation is with
binutils but I think that generally during my build I saw a lot of
failures. All together all those tests have been ignored and package build
was successful.

authselect: owning configuration files under /etc/authselect
by Pavel Březina
Hello list,
Igor suggested in authselect pull request that authselect should own
configuration files in /etc/authselect.
See: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/authselect/pull-request/5
More specifically:
+ %ghost %{_sysconfdir}/authselect/dconf-db
+ %ghost %{_sysconfdir}/authselect/dconf-locks
+ %ghost %{_sysconfdir}/authselect/fingerprint-auth
+ %ghost %{_sysconfdir}/authselect/nsswitch.conf
+ %ghost %{_sysconfdir}/authselect/password-auth
+ %ghost %{_sysconfdir}/authselect/postlogin
+ %ghost %{_sysconfdir}/authselect/smartcard-auth
+ %ghost %{_sysconfdir}/authselect/system-auth
+ %ghost %{_sysconfdir}/authselect/user-nsswitch.conf
This makes perfect sense, however if authselect owns these files and
admin then uninstalls authselect, the system will be locked out because
pam configuration was removed.
I do not know any way how to own these files and yet leave them
untouched after uninstallation, thus I see only two solutions:
1) Do not own these files at all.
2) Remove symlinks to /etc/authselect/* and restore these files to their
original location (i.e. /etc/nsswitch.conf, /etc/pam.d/*).
Which do you prefer? Is there other way to do this?
Thank you,
Pavel.

Adding zstd support for mksquashfs
by Roberto Ragusa
Hi,
squashfs is now supporting the interesting zstd compression algorithm,
but the mksquashfs tool in Fedora doesn't support zstd.
The upstream code does, it is in the master branch, but there have not
been releases for years (version 4.3 since fedora 19).
https://sourceforge.net/p/squashfs/code/commit_browser
I tried compiling it and it went fine after adding a couple of
#include <sys/sysmacros.h>
not actually related to zstd.
Which is the correct way to get this into Fedora?
Regards.

RFE: fedpkgdiff?
by Richard Shaw
I'm curious to see if anyone else would find this useful...
What about a fedpkgdiff as a wrapper around pkgdiff (similar to
fedabipkgdiff) but just to see the difference between two packages (either
local or from the repos like fedabipkgdiff), specifically differences in:
- installed files (not contents)
- requires
- provides
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Richard
