Re: [Fedora-spins] [spin-kickstarts] #5: Desktop Live CD Oversized
by Jens-Ulrik Petersen 07 Nov '08

> Part of the goal for the desktop livecd is to be as universal as > possible - this means supporting as many languages as possible. Well not just fedora-live-desktop but all main spins IMHO. That is why we have @fonts and @input-methods in fedora-live-base now. There is no reason to install all Korean fonts for example for all users. (And unfortunately that is what we are doing in the F10 Desktop spin currently :-/) The lang support groups are just duplicating @fonts and @input-methods and pulling in packages that should be optional for general users. > As a side benefit, it avoids us having to host 20 language spins > by default. In fact largely the local spins are just removing fonts and input-methods and adding some of their own optional packages: which is exactly what the language support groups are for. :) Jens

[spin-kickstarts] #13: Drop fedora-livecd-desktop-default.ks in favor of fedora-livecd-desktop.ks

#13: Drop fedora-livecd-desktop-default.ks in favor of fedora-livecd-desktop.ks ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: kanarip | Owner: kanarip Type: task | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Fedora 11 Alpha Component: kickstart pool | Keywords: ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Drop fedora-livecd-desktop-default.ks in favor of fedora-livecd- desktop.ks. Besides a few fonts being removed in fedora-livecd-desktop-default.ks, there is no reason to keep a separate kickstart around as there's no @*-support groups included anymore and thus dropping the fedora-livecd- desktop-default.ks and integrating with fedora-livecd-desktop.ks does not prevent localization based on fedora-livecd-desktop.ks (which including the @*-support groups previously did). -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/spin-kickstarts/ticket/13> spin-kickstarts <https://fedorahosted.org/spin-kickstarts/> Kickstarts that the Spin SIG reviews, tests, maintains and releases (as a package).

[spin-kickstarts] #12: revert @input-methods from base kickstart file since other required changes did not land in time

#12: revert @input-methods from base kickstart file since other required changes did not land in time ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Reporter: petersen | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Fedora 10 RC Component: fedora-live-base | Keywords: ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- I failed to commit the majority of my input-methods cleanup patch in time for the F-10 branch so would like to simply revert the change below from fedora-live-base.ks and continue using fedora-livecd-desktop-default.ks for the default F10 spin as has been done through the whole devel cycle. Patch to be reverted: http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/spin- kickstarts.git/F-10?p=spin- kickstarts.git;a=commit;h=bd870f59d70eacb0362462976444381a7924f067 The alternative would be to touch nearly all the other local and flavours of spins to adjust the listing/filtering of input-methods, as on the master branch, but I don't think this is desirable any more after the devel freeze. (The complete input-methods patch has since been applied to master branch so I agree with Jeroen we should drop fedora-livecd-desktop-default.ks for f11. For f11 input-method handling should be much improved.) -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/spin-kickstarts/ticket/12> spin-kickstarts <https://fedorahosted.org/spin-kickstarts/> Kickstarts that the Spin SIG reviews, tests, maintains and releases (as a package).

This was making the Engineering and Science group show up for just this one package. commit 51ac1c77e5f408df9685856e7f1b97fefc40a5b9 Author: Jesse Keating <jkeating(a)redhat.com> Date: Wed Nov 5 18:52:59 2008 -0800 Add the fedora-packager group. It was showing up anyway due to shared packages, and it's useful to have with the other dev packages. commit 60d370c6be6b9a82168d5647af789cd561c75491 Author: Jesse Keating <jkeating(a)redhat.com> Date: Wed Nov 5 18:52:22 2008 -0800 The default size is now 695 instead of 670. The last one is just a documentation in comment change. The default setting was actually done in pungi itself. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/spin-kickstarts/ticket/14> spin-kickstarts <https://fedorahosted.org/spin-kickstarts/> Kickstarts that the Spin SIG reviews, tests, maintains and releases (as a package).

Broken spins not going out as part of Preview
by Jesse Keating 05 Nov '08

The Developer and Games spin both fail to compose due to missing packages. They will not be shipped as part of Fedora 10 Preview, and run the risk of not being part of Fedora 10. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating

[spin-kickstarts] #11: Please merge new fedora-livecd-kde.ks into F-10 branch

#11: Please merge new fedora-livecd-kde.ks into F-10 branch ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: svahl | Owner: kanarip Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: kickstart pool | Keywords: ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- The removal/split of solar-backgrounds has freed some space on the KDE live images (more than 30 megs). So to fill up the unused space I've added some more packages: digikam, konq-plugins, pavucontrol, kdeedu-kstars. The x86_64 image is only 690 megs here. So it shouldn't conflict with the language based kde spins which depends on this kickstart (if they've removed the scim-packages).
