dvdstyler problem, segfaults
by Fred Smith 28 Feb '16

28 Feb '16

Hi all! This is in regard to a Fedora-20 system I use when converting VHS tapes to DVD. I would really rather NOT update to a later fedora--it is used for that one purpose only, and it took some effort to find andlearn the tools I needed to do the job. So, a year or so ago I converted probably a hundred tapes to DVD. Tedious, but doable without real trouble. The system sits idle for some months, then I come back to it to use it again, and I find that when I'm ready to create the ISO image, for which I have used dvdstyler, that dvdstyler segfaults early in its operation. I've not found a way to do what I need that doesn't segfault. This is weird, because it has hardly even been "yum update"-ed during the interval. what would have changed? I dunno... So, after a lot of head-banging I decided it is probably easiest to just recompile dvdstyler to see if that avoids the problem. (I've already tried reinstalling it...). I set up mock on the box and proceed to try a build, using this command: mock --rebuild dvdstyler-2.9.2-1.fc20.src.rpm after installing 156 packages, then ccache, it proceeds to give me this screen output: Getting requirements for 1:dvdstyler-2.9.2-1.fc20.src --> automake-1.13.4-6.fc20.noarch --> autoconf-2.69-15.fc20.noarch --> gettext-0.18.3.2-5.fc20.x86_64 --> byacc-1.9.20130304-2.fc20.x86_64 --> wxGTK-devel-2.8.12-9.fc20.x86_64 --> libgnomeui-devel-2.24.5-7.fc20.x86_64 --> dvdauthor-0.7.1-4.fc20.x86_64 --> systemd-devel-208-31.fc20.x86_64 --> genisoimage-1.1.11-22.fc20.x86_64 --> dvd+rw-tools-7.1-14.fc20.x86_64 --> libjpeg-turbo-devel-1.3.1-3.fc20.x86_64 --> libexif-devel-0.6.21-6.fc20.x86_64 --> Already installed : zip-3.0-10.fc20.x86_64 --> xmlto-0.0.25-7.fc20.x86_64 --> desktop-file-utils-0.22-1.fc20.x86_64 Error: No Package found for ffmpeg Error: No Package found for ffmpeg-devel Error: No Package found for wxsvg-devel >= 1.1.14 ERROR: Exception(dvdstyler-2.9.2-1.fc20.src.rpm) Config(fedora-20-x86_64) 1 minutes 49 seconds INFO: Results and/or logs in: /var/lib/mock/fedora-20-x86_64/result ERROR: Command failed: # /usr/bin/yum-builddep --installroot /var/lib/mock/fedora-20-x86_64/root/ --releasever 20 /var/lib/ mock/fedora-20-x86_64/root//builddir/build/SRPMS/dvdstyler-2.9.2-1.fc20.src.rpm --setopt=tsflags=nocontexts Getting requirements for 1:dvdstyler-2.9.2-1.fc20.src --> automake-1.13.4-6.fc20.noarch --> autoconf-2.69-15.fc20.noarch --> gettext-0.18.3.2-5.fc20.x86_64 --> byacc-1.9.20130304-2.fc20.x86_64 --> wxGTK-devel-2.8.12-9.fc20.x86_64 --> libgnomeui-devel-2.24.5-7.fc20.x86_64 --> dvdauthor-0.7.1-4.fc20.x86_64 --> systemd-devel-208-31.fc20.x86_64 --> genisoimage-1.1.11-22.fc20.x86_64 --> dvd+rw-tools-7.1-14.fc20.x86_64 --> libjpeg-turbo-devel-1.3.1-3.fc20.x86_64 --> libexif-devel-0.6.21-6.fc20.x86_64 --> Already installed : zip-3.0-10.fc20.x86_64 --> xmlto-0.0.25-7.fc20.x86_64 --> desktop-file-utils-0.22-1.fc20.x86_64 Error: No Package found for ffmpeg Error: No Package found for ffmpeg-devel Error: No Package found for wxsvg-devel >= 1.1.14 so I don't know how to solve this last thing. ffmpeg IS installed on the system, but not in the chroot. it looks like ffmpeg on the system came from rpmfusion, so i try adding rpmfusion to the list of repos mock knows about but that only gives me tons of other errors (I probably don't know the right syntax, I tried using modified lines from the /etc/yum.repos.d files for rpmfusion, to match the existing entries.) I'd appreciate some suggestions here, I'm not particularly fluent in mock. thanks! -- ---- Fred Smith -- fredex(a)fcshome.stoneham.ma.us ----------------------------- Show me your ways, O LORD, teach me your paths; Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, And my hope is in you all day long. -------------------------- Psalm 25:4-5 (NIV) --------------------------------

[Maybe OT] BackupPC Aborts Backup at 8GB on F23
by Tim Evans 28 Feb '16

28 Feb '16

I have just upgraded, to F23, a CentOS 6.7 system that has been reliably running BackupPC (http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/) to back up a Windows 7 system via SMB for several years. After the F23 upgrade, which also included an upgrade of BackupPC to version 3.3.1, backups are now always aborting at about the 8GB mark, with this in the error log: 2016-02-28 14:00:02 Started incr backup on pelican (pid=325, share=C$) 2016-02-28 14:18:37 Backup failed on pelican (tar:712 Total bytes received: 8287158228) Actual byte count varies a bit from one failed backup to the next, but stays at the 8GB mark. Not sure this if this is a BackupPC issue, or something else. Maybe filesystem-related? More (possibly complicating) info; The destination for the backups is NFS mounted on the F23 server from a ReadyNAS fileserver; local filesystems on the ReadyNAS are btrfs format. NFS mount shows: raptor:/data/win on /win type nfs (rw,relatime,vers=3,rsize=131072,wsize=131072,namlen=255,hard,proto=tcp,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,mountaddr=192.168.252.6,mountvers=3,mountport=60363,mountproto=udp,local_lock=none,addr=192.168.252.6) Where to look?

Chromium libusb errors
by Jens Neu 28 Feb '16

28 Feb '16

Dear all, anyone else seeing this since some days? /usr/bin/chromium-browser: symbol lookup error: /usr/bin/chromium-browser: undefined symbol: libusb_interrupt_handle_event I'm using repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/spot/chromium-stable/ on 23, everything is up-to-date. I'm aware of https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Chromium and the problems around, the error is the same on stable an the copr repo. My suspicion is, the libusbx from updates (1.0.21-0.1.git448584a.fc23) breaks something that libusbx from fedora-chromium-stable (1.0.20-101.fc23) is trying to get right? If you google the error, you get exactly one (!) hit, https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=266149 which is not particulary helpful. any thoughts? regards Jens

Scrolling through LO documents lets horizontal/verlitacl lines appear/disappear with some ati video cards
by Joachim Backes 28 Feb '16

28 Feb '16

Hi F23 users, Having problems with displaying Libreoffice documents using horizontal or vertical lines: If scrolling through such documents, rather often the lines disappear or appear again. Seems a displaying problem (such printed documents show the lines always!). I think id could be a problem with the video card: 1. VGA compatible controller:Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Cedar [Radeon HD 5000/6000/7350/8350 Series] 2. xorg-x11-drv-ati-7.6.1-3.20160215gitd41fccc.fc23.x86_64 I'm not running drivers from rpmfusion. Anybody has similar problems? Kind regards Joachim Backes -- Fedora release 23 (Twenty Three) Kernel-4.4.3-300.fc23.x86_64 Joachim Backes <joachim.backes(a)rhrk.uni-kl.de> http://www-user.rhrk.uni-kl.de/~backes/

27 Feb '16

Hi, I have a fedora23 system with a few web sites, and would like to generate some stats on them. What are people using for this these days? I'd like to find total hits, bandwidth used, geolocation info, etc. I used to use webalizer, but it appears it's no longer being developed... Thanks, Alex

Fedora infra services integration with gnome desktop
by Zoltan Hoppar 27 Feb '16

27 Feb '16

Hi, I am looking for connections, and possible integration with FedoCal, and other infra fedora services that can be added to my Gnome desktop. I have seen already OwnCloud solutions, but the question is: Is that would be possible to use OwnCloud calendar plugin, and others to be binded with our services? Zoltan -- PGP: 06853DF7
