---- Appointment to the Fedora Board ----

Jared K. Smith announced[1]:

"The Fedora Board consists of five elected seats and four appointed seats. As part of the normal Board succession process[2], one Board appointment is made before elections and the other is made after the election cycle.

I'm happy to announce that Toshio Kuratomi has accepted the responsibility of serving on the Fedora Board. Toshio is a great contributor to open source in general, and has been actively collaborating with people throughout the Fedora Project for many years. I have no doubt that he'll work tirelessly to increase the level of trust, transparency, communication, and innovation within the Fedora community. I thank Toshio for his willingness to serve, and I hope the whole Fedora community will join me in welcoming him to the Board.

Toshio will fill seat A2 (see the Board History[3] for a list of the seats), which has been held by Colin Walters. I'd also like to take this opportunity to publicly thank Colin for the work he's done on behalf of the Fedora Board.

Elections for the two open elected seats on the Board (as well as FAmSCo and FESCo elections) will begin on November 20th at UTC 0001, as shown on the Fedora wiki's Elections page[4]. All community members are encouraged to cast their vote until the elections close at the end of the day on November 28th. After the end of elections, another appointment will be made for the remaining Board seat (seat A2).

---- Moving /var/run and /var/lock to tmpfs in Rawhide ----

Lennart Poettering announced[1]:

"Heya!

I hereby want to let everybody know that in the next days I will turn on /var/run and /var/lock on tmpfs on Rawhide/F15. This is in accordance with the following accepted F15 feature[2]

My current tests indicate that we will not run into too much trouble with this and most things should continue to work just fine. However, of course I run only a small subset of packages of the fedora archive on my machine. So here's what might happen and which might need fixing over the next weeks in various packages:

    * Not all packages might be able to create their directory in /var/run on start-up. Since SUSE and Ubuntu have already been shipping systems with tmpfs on /var/run and /var/lock for quite a while I expect the number of packages that are incapable of doing this to be very small. If your software nonetheless fails with this issue, then there are two options to fix this: a) patch the program in question, so that it is able to recreate the directories in /var/run, or b) ship a simple drop-in file for /etc/tmpfiles.d/ which recreates these directories on boot. (see below)

    * There might be permission problems, since the rpms might have set different perms on the subdirs of /var/run than the software itself might apply when starting up. In this case, a drop-in file in /etc/tmpfiles.d/ might help. (see below)

    * The SELinux policy might trigger AVCs and disallow creation of the dirs in question. In this case Dan will be of help of course, so make sure to file a bug. And I guess I don't need to mention this but temporarily falling back to permissive mode is a short-term workaround for this.

    * In some cases daemons might want to create more than one file/dir below /var/run which are supposed to be labelled differently. In this case the daemon can either be modified to fix its labels up itself, or a drop-in file in /etc/tmpfiles.d/ might help (see below).

    * Many .spec files currently own subdirs of /var/run. These need to be updated to %ghost those dirs only, so that the automatic removal of these files/dirs on boot doesnt cause rpm to complain. The list of packages which own such files/subdir you find on the aforementioned feature page. I will mass-file bugs against these packages later tonight, requesting the %ghosting of these entries. For more information on the %ghost directive in .spec files see this page[3]

Action items:

a) Lennart will mass-file bugs regarding %ghost usage tonight

b) Lennart will switch on /var/run and /var/lock on tmpfs either tomorrow or the day after tomorrow

c) YOU need to edit your .spec file and place a %ghost where appropriate.

d) YOU need to test if you package still works, and if necessary file AVC bugs, add an /etc/tmpfiles.d drop-in file to your program, or patch it so that it is able to recreate these directories beneath /var/run on its own.

On /etc/tmpfiles.d:

This is a new feature of systemd, but which is apparently very much liked by people outside of systemd, so this might actually find adoption even on systems which will not adopt systemd any time soon, since it actually is not specific at all to systemd. By dropping a simple configuration file in /etc/tmpfiles.d you can ensure that volatile files and directories are: a) created, deleted or emptied at boot b) their permissions/ownership fixed c) its directory contents cleaned up in regular intervals (a la tmpwatch) and d) it is properly re-labeled at boot.

As an example, here's how such a file might look like for the screen package (name it /etc/tmpfiles.d/screen.conf):

d /var/run/screens 1777 root root 10d

d /var/run/uscreens 0755 root root 10d12h

This encodes that two directories are created under the listed names, with automatic clean up after 10 days resp. 10 days and 12h.

For more details consult the man page[4]

Thank you for your attention!

--- Fedora 14 aka Laughlin Review (muktware) ---

Rahul Sundaram forwarded[1] another review of Fedora 14, which sums up their experience with:

"Fedora 14 is a good distribution. Parts of it may not be for the inexperienced, such as partitioning disk drives. It may also require more knowledge and understanding to add multimedia functionality to the system, but once everything is set up, the user is generally good to go"

--- Run Applications in Secure Sandboxes with SELinux (Linux.com) ---

Rahul Sundaram forwarded[1] an article in Linux.com about SELinux's sandbox approach to application security:

"SELinux runs a Firefox in a restricted session that doesn't have access to rest of the system. That includes the X session. Firefox will run in a nested X server (Xephyr), and you won't be able to even copy & paste from or to the Firefox session and other apps. /But/, it also means that Firefox is totally restricted from reading any other files on your system and that malicious Web pages or attacks on plugins like Flash are sandboxed as well."

--- Fedora 14: Strong follow-up to 13 still suffers from same niche appeal (Linux In Exile) ---

Rahul Sundaram forwarded[1] another blog review of Fedora 14:

"Don't get me wrong, Fedora 14 is a great installation in the Fedora time line. It builds upon the strengths of Fedora 13. My biggest problem is in what was left out. It is my belief that ALL Linux distributions (the exception being the likes of Puppy Linux and other small to tiny distributions - as well as rescue distributions) should ship with all the tools necessary to get to work out-of-the-box (on top of the standard and system tools)."

--- Fuduntu Is A Fedora 14 Remix For Netbooks And Laptops (webupd8.org) ---

Rahul Sundaram forwarded[1] announcement of a new Fedora 14 remix for Asus Eee netbooks:

"Fuduntu is a Fedora 14 remix (remaster) designed especially for Asus Eee (but you can of course use it on other netbooks and any laptop/desktop computer) and comes with some interesting performance tweaks by default. It was created by Fewt, the Jupiter (an hardware and power management applet for netbooks and Laptops) developer"

--- openrespect.org sorgt für Uneinigkeit (Pro-Linux.de Germany) ---

Henryk Heigl forwarded[1] another posting on openrespect in which he provides some rough English translation:

"Originally the declaration should be carried by several projects together. This can be inferred anyhow to minutes[2] of the last meeting of the Fedora executive committee. The Fedora executive committee appeared surprised that Bacon finally published its own version of the text despite the original offer to co-operation, and decided, not to support these. Individual members of the executive committee saw in the text a transparent attempt, criticism at Canonical, to the company behind Ubuntu to repel. Also the question, whether the text falsely equates politeness with respect, was raised."

--- Spotlight on Linux: Fedora 14 (Linux Journal) ---

Rahul Sundaram forwarded[1] Linux Journal coverage of Fedora 14:

"One of the determining factors in the popularity of distributions is the size of their community. That puts Fedora near the top of the list.

Another advantage is the level of quality found throughout the distribution. Fedora developers contribute not only to Fedora, but also to upstream projects, and cherish the highest standards of quality control. Bugs are everywhere in code and Fedora is no exception, but Fedora developers seem to rise just a bit higher than some other distributions."
