I didn't think that this affected any other packages, but apparently, at least one (testdisk) links to libntfs. So, this is your heads-up. :) ~spot From dennis at ausil.us Tue Dec 4 16:30:12 2007 From: dennis at ausil.us (Dennis Gilmore) Date: Tue, 4 Dec 2007 10:30:12 -0600 Subject: fedora-packager Message-ID: <200712041030.17904.dennis@ausil.us> Hi All, I created a new hosted project at https://hosted.fedoraproject.org/projects/fedora-packager/ with one simple goal. make it easy for people to setup a fedora package maintainer environment. Right now all that is currently in place is fedora-packager-setup.sh used to setup your certs and configs for koji and plague and a new script fedora-cvs that will checkout from cvs modules for you using your FAS account. Why am i telling you this? well for one fedora-packager-setup.sh is no longer in the koji package its in fedora-packager and two I want your help. Do you have a script that you find really useful to help you maintain your packages? want to share them? then please help make fedora-packager better. We also now have a new comps group fedora-packager. so there is two easy ways to get your development environment setup on a new box "yum groupinstall fedora-packager" and "yum install fedora-packager" both will do the same thing. then run fedora-packager-setup.sh and your on your way.

I also think we can get a better turnout at bar camp if it is on Saturday. What we want to know is: does this totally mess up anyone's plans? None of the dates actually change, just the agenda a little bit. Let me know off-list. If there's no major concerns, we'll turn this from 'proposal' to 'official' on Monday and update the main barcamp page.

That leaves ppc3,4 and hammer2 to convert. Builds are processing though. We are finding a few issues here and there with the new code sets and will be fixing them as quickly as possible, as well as other issues such as static-repos not being reachable right now. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- All my bits are free, are yours? -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

New kernels are on all the active builds. You should no longer see mysterious build failures due to missing files (that were actually there on the file system). -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- All my bits are free, are yours? -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
