================================================================================
mksh-46-1.fc17 (FEDORA-2013-7232)
MirBSD enhanced version of the Korn Shell
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
R46 delivers these changes:
* [tg] dot.mkshrc: prevent lksh from running it
* [tg] Add the lksh manual page to the mksh distribution
* [tg] Make both lksh and mksh interpret numbers with a leading digit zero (‘0’) as octal precisely iff “set -o posix” is active
* [tg] Point out the octal digit and the integer arithmetic differences from POSuX verbosely in the manual pages (point people who need octals to “set -o posix” and who need longs to lksh) and elaborate on the horrors of ISO C Undefined Behaviour which is allowed to delete all your data
* [tg] Unbreak “set -o” (list flags) in lksh on LP64 machines
* [tg] Implement Emacs mode PgUp as Vi insert mode Cur↑ for Yofuh
* [tg] Allow setting both “set -o sh” and “set -o posix”, if done in the same command; shuffle around compatibility levels (mksh/lksh, with -o sh, with -o posix) again; permit a /bin/sh to set either or both
* [tg] Sync lksh manual page with the exact code ifdefs
* [tg] Change more use of signed integer to use unsigned instead
* [tg] Implement “set -o pipefail” like AT&T ksh93 and GNU bash do
* [tg] dot.mkshrc: provide hd(1) in Pure mksh™ for fallback
* [tg] Implement VALSUBs (value substitutions): ${|REPLY=foo;}
R45 comes with this bag of changes:
* [tg] Make “set -x” print the commands run in escaped form
* [tg] PS4 in dot.mkshrc is now timestamped
* [tg] The &> GNU bash I/O redir is no longer parsed in -o posix, -o sh modes, lksh (breaks valid scripts)
* [tg] Implement ${ …;} more efficiently (deleted-open files)
* [tg] For shf, %#s (if you can get it past GCC’s printf format attribute) calls print_value_quoted, ignoring field width and precision
* [tg] Catch “typeset =” (regression) with better error message
* [tg, Tonnerre Lombard] add “doch” alias to dot.mkshrc which just repeats the last input line with sudo(8)
* [tg] Use unsigned integers for all calculations, to avoid ISO C “Undefined Behaviour” (and implementation-defined behaviour) throughout (most of) the code; emulate signed integer arithmetics using unsigned; not-lksh only
* [tg] Emulate signed modulo naïvely, for correct sign of the result
* [tg] Add <<< and >>> for ROL and ROR (rotate left and right, respectively) operations, <<<= and >>> assignments; bitwise AND the RHS of a shift/rotate op with 31 (not for lksh)
* [tg] Remove a warning by working around a workaround found in dietlibc which works around a bug in broken software such as GNU tar (really!)
* [tg] Correct and simplify list and categorisation of built-in commands as POSIX special and “everything else” plus a flag to keep assignments
* [tg] Handle ((foo)) as “let]” internally to avoid a conflict with user-defined functions called let (LP#1156707)
* [tg] Clean up the code

python-workerpool-0.9.2-4.fc18 (FEDORA-2013-7463)
Multithreaded job distribution module
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
The workerpool module for python is a simple framework for easily distributing jobs into multiple worker threads. Examples of usage can be found in the unit tests and the samples provided. This module facilitates distributing simple operations into jobs that are sent to worker threads, maintained by a pool object.
It consists of these components:
* Jobs - single units of work that need to be performed.
* Workers - workers grab jobs from a queue and run them.
* Worker pool - keeps track of workers and the job queue.

QA:Testcase_desktop_updates proposal
by Bob Lightfoot
Dear Testers:
I have run the test at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_desktop_updates several fimes
recently and would like to propose the following clarifiction addition
for others who might run this test.
How to Test step 5 reads "Wait for more updates to become available,
manually downgrade some packages so updates for them are again
available, or re-install "
I wish to add a box note like the "Tip for shortening the waiting time
to the updates notification" called "Tip for manually downgrading
packages".
"Tip for manually downgrading packages".
To find a package to downgrade the following steps can be taken:
1. Open a terminal and login as root or use sudo for the following commands.
2. Run command <yum history list> to deterime the instance number of the
last yum update, most likely it will be 2.
3. Run command <yum history info #instance-number#> #instance-number# is
the last instance from yum history.
4. Choose a package or packages from the info list, it may be necessary
to pipe the output to less or more to view.
5. Run command <yum downgrade /path_to_package/packagename.rpm and let
yum downgrade the package.
Sincerely,
Bob Lightfoot

Request for focused testing on containers (LVM, btrfs) in F19 Beta TCs
by Adam Williamson
Hi, folks. I wanted to pass along a special request from the anaconda
team for those of you who are helping to test the Beta TCs (for which,
thanks!)
There are some substantial changes to the handling of containers in
custom partitioning that landed just prior to the TCs starting up.
Containers are LVM volume groups and btrfs volumes, basically. We don't
really need to go into much detail on the changes, but here's what would
really help:
Please, just exercise the code, and file bugs if you hit crashes or
failures. UI feedback is nice but we're mostly after bugs, here. Of
course, the usual advice not to install on production systems goes
double here, but if you have test systems or VMs, use 'em! We need to
try stuff like containers that span multiple disks, resizing containers,
changing various properties of them, trying to set up LVM-on-RAID (which
now ought to be possible, I believe). It'd be ideal if people can focus
on 'plausible' cases - it is useful to get bugs like 'if I go back and
forward 20 times then try to create a 500 petabyte container on my 40GB
SSD, it crashes', but the best bugs are ones that people are reasonably
likely to hit when trying to do something practical.
It would be helpful if you could put 'newui-container' in the 'Devel
Whiteboard' field in Bugzilla when filing your bugs - that way the devs
can identify them as related to this testing effort. If you have the
relevant powers, you can also assign them to dlehman AT redhat,
otherwise we'll go through and do them periodically.
Thanks a lot, folks!
