I have been running various incarnations of Heisenbug on my office machine for about a week now without problems. Against my better judgement, I decided to try running RC4 on the machine that runs omen.com. At the same time I switched from Sendmail to Exim, something I should have done a long time ago.
Omen.com runs on an Intel i5-3550 with 32GB memory on an Asus P8Z77-VPRO.
For the first try I installed Heisenbug on a spare machine with a 4TB SATA drive in a removable bay, then moved this drive to the omen.com server. This didn't meet my expectations, so I tried to reinstall Heisenbug on the server using netinst on a USB drive. As with my office machine, booting the RC4 netinst with UEFI didn't fly. I booted netinst without UEFI but kept getting "unknown errors". So I took out the new HD and restarted an older version of Fedora.
Back to the spare machine. I cleared the partition table with parted and used the RC4 to install the development and creative workstation. I then used Yum to install Xfce and other stuff I use on Omen.com. That HD with Heisenbug is now the boot drive on omen.com.
I have encountered a change or bug in PHP that breaks PHP scripts that have been in use for quite some time. The following script no longer generates the vlf6.plt file as it used to. The ds5 program works properly when invoked from the shell.
<?php $command = "ds5 +2000 -0.25 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 >/u/h/vlf6.plt 2>/dev/null"; system($command); $command ="cd /u/h; tek2gif vlf6.plt 2>/dev/null"; system($command); ?>

Can you please file a bug? The concerned maintainer may or may not be watching the QA mailing list.

Ten to one it's a change in upstream PHP. I would check that before filing any bugs.

Apparently httpd is now suid apache. I changed some ownerships and permissions and now the old scripts run again.
This mini flag day should be mentioned in the release notes.
