An introduction and a s390 effort
by Sascha Thomas Spreitzer 23 Mar '09

23 Mar '09

Hello contributors and OSS friends, (Who am I?) My name is Sascha Thomas Spreitzer and I live in the eastern outback of Munich in Bavaria Germany. I am 23 years old and started with C and GNU Linux in the early age of 13. (What am I doing?) Most time I spend in the office fixing Unix dependant problems. Since now at Germanys biggest stock broker "Baader Bank". In future (starting first of April) ill design and realize AIX and z/Linux environments for the government insurance sector. If I'm not in the office, I go out with my girlfriend Lisa and we enjoy the little time we have together. I used to do traditional Shotokan Karate in JKA style. But stopped it a year ago, because I had no time left to do it. In holidays I try to gain progress with my software development skills. (Why centos and what I'm up to?) I had a chance to get a look at IBM's z/Series in the past and it arouse my interest. Some years passed and now I have to face z/Linux in my new position. >From the skills I gained in the past and the skills i'll gain in future, I want to contribute back to the community. Since a decade I'm using OSS and I deeply esteem the freedom. It's time for me to contribute. PS.: you can can IM me via IRC or Jabber: irc.freenode.net: sspreitzer Jabber: icefox(a)im.relinked.org -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen, / with kind regards, Sascha Thomas Spreitzer http://spreitzer.name/

Forum migration: newbb_to_phpbb
by Alain Reguera Delgado 23 Mar '09

23 Mar '09

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Guys, During the last few weeks I've been working on a migration script (newbb_to_phpbb) based on a code provided to me by Marcus Moeller to move Xoops+CBB forums, topics and posts into phpBB system. The users are copied from xoops user table onto an LDAP server. More information in the wiki page: http://wiki.centos.org/WebsiteVer2/forums/newbb_to_phpbb It would be nice if you could test this application, and check the overall process so we can get what we need to migrate newbb to phpbb. The application's download link is in the wiki page above. Note that it is in a test mode yet and requesting for comments.

CentOS-2 key expired (resend)
by John Newbigin 23 Mar '09

23 Mar '09

I though I was going crazy because rpm would not accept my password to sign some new rpms. The problem is however that the gpg key has expired: pub 1024D/16FF0E46 2004-03-15 CentOS-2 Key <centos-2key(a)caosity.org> sub 2048g/63E158BD 2004-03-15 [expires: 2009-03-14] Who is looking after keys now? Do I need a new one or should I try and extend the old one? The caos key which was used to sign the key has also expired. Advice is most welcome. Thanks John. -- John Newbigin ITS Senior Analyst / Programmer Faculty of Information and Communication Technologies Swinburne University of Technology Melbourne, Australia http://www.ict.swin.edu.au/staff/jnewbigin

by Robert 20 Mar '09

20 Mar '09

Hi, I'm missing security updates for centos 5.2 since a few days. There is at least one security issue for apache, which is fixed in the upstream but not via yum for centos. Did I miss something? Regards Robert

Trac 0.11 Theme Customization
by Alain Reguera Delgado 19 Mar '09

19 Mar '09

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Guys, We have a theme customization for trac-0.11.3-1.el5.rf in: https://projects.centos.org/svn/artwork/trunk/Extras/Trac/0.11 and some screenshots in: https://projects.centos.org/trac/artwork/browser/trunk/Extras/Trac/0.11/Tou… It would be nice if someone could test it and comment about it. After that, I think that the Trac upgrade planned some time ago could take place if nothing else delays it.

Except that I want to install PG 8.2.9 (from testing), which appears to install libpq.so.5 Do you mean that postgresqlclient81-8.1.11-1.el5s2.x86_64.rpm is similar to the compat-postgresql-libs RPM I mentioned above? Is it happy to install without dependency problems alongside PG 8.2.9?

Spacewalk client tools inclusion
by Justin Sherrill 17 Mar '09

17 Mar '09

Hi All, I'm working on getting the rhn-client tools (that have traditionally been not included in centos) into the distro so it can be used with spacewalk more easily and invite any of those interested to help. Since 5.3 has already been released, we're targeting to include it in extras for now. I've created a wiki page to track the progress here: https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/CentPackages I figured a meeting would be good for interested parties to discuss what needs to be done and to divvy up the tasks. How about next Wednesday (3/25) at 21:00 GMT (5:00 pm EST). Thanks -- Justin Sherrill, RHCA 1801 Varisty Drive. Software Engineer Raleigh, NC 27603 Red Hat, Inc.

Postgresql RPMS in testing
by Michael Hall 16 Mar '09

16 Mar '09

I know everyone is probably flat out with 5.3 at the moment, but this is some feedback on the Postgresql 8.2.9 RPMS in testing. I've been struggling to install the httpd 2.2.8, php 5.2.6 and postgresql 8.2.9 RPMS in testing on a minimal CentOS 5.2 due to issues with libpq and apr-utils. I put these packages into a custom repo, assigned then to a custom group in comps.xml, and am working with kickstart. Anyway, it appears apr-util is a dependency of httpd. apr-util in turn depends on libpq.so.4, provided by postgresql-libs. The postgresql-libs 8.2.9 package installs libpq.so.5, so things go belly up and won't install (no apr-utils, therefore no httpd, therefore no php). If however I install the compat-postgresql-libs package from http://yum.pgsqlrpms.org/8.3/redhat/rhel-5-x86_64/repoview/applications.dat…, installation of all packages proceeds. This package obviously reconciles the lippq.so.4/libpq.so.5 conflict. So maybe something like this package is needed in testing? Thanks, hope the feedback proves useful, Mick

Re: [CentOS-devel] Automatic RPM dependencies based on egg metadata

DRY FTW! > > > regards, > -- I am not taking sides on this issue, but you would probably get farther with this if you submit the patches upstream. CentOS doesn't do a lot of patching to upstream code unless it is necessary for the build process. If you get this past RedHat, it will flow down to CentOS. That is the path you would need to follow. -- MailScanner is like deodorant... You hope everybody uses it, and you notice quickly if they don't!!!!
