Summary: Review Request: beldi - Belug Linux Distribution Burner https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=249949 ------- Additional Comments From fedora@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 2007-09-19 10:11 EST ------- (In reply to comment #8) > Okay, I've to slap upstream.

Yes, it's an upstream issue, but it makes tracking changes for us (you as the maintainer) harder. :( > But Beldi should take $HOME/beldi or something per > default as only one user per machine normally really uses Beldi. And how do you want achieve this if not with userhelper? > Independent of > this, Beldi can given another parameter to use a common location for the files > it uses. $HOME/beldi is a bad idea I think, because it can interfere with system-config-users (in the unlikely case someone creates a user called "beldi") /var/lib/beldi is better and follows the FHS. If we use $HOME/beldi we _need_ to create the beldi user during %post. > Removing the qemu requirement again is nothing big. Removing qemu from Requires: is no big deal but it leaves us with the "Test with qemu" button. > Suid is what upstream would > like to avoid. Upstream prefers either separate directories or one directory > which is read-writable to all users. The last of these solutions is discouraged > in Fedora as I got from #fedora-devel. I wasn't suggesting to make beldi suid or creating a world writable directory but about using userhelper like we do for revisor and other tools. To me this is the best solution, the "fedora way": It guarantees that beldi always is executed as a certain user, so that all users can share a single beldi installation. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
