KDE team needs your help
------------------------

Due to inactivity and other responsibilities within Gentoo's KDE team[1],
they are currently seeking out new recruits from the community. Interested
parties who are currently developers can add themselves to the herd and
start squashing bugs. Interested members of the community can also help. If
you want to help out, contact the KDE team[2] for more information.

Upcoming removal of mail-mta/qmail
----------------------------------

The Gentoo qmail team[3] would like to announce the removal of
mail-mta/qmail. It has been superseded by mail-mta/netqmail which is stable
on the same architectures as the older mail-mta/qmail. The new ebuild,
mail-mta/netqmail, consists of only upstream provided patches[4]. One of the
reasons for the switch is the massive cleanup efforts that have made the
newer ebuild. Users wanting custom patches can use the QMAIL_PATCH_DIR
variable in make.conf, specifying a directory containing patches to be
applied before compilation. Be aware that the qmail team will not support
installations using custom patches.

   3. qmail-bugs@g.o
   4. http://www.qmail.org/netqmail/

The mail-mta/qmail package will be removed on or around April 15, 2007,
after being masked on or around March 15, 2007. Please migrate to the new
package before this date.

2. Developer of the week

Matthias Schwarzott, aka zzam
-----------------------------

Figure 2.1: Matthias Schwarzott, aka zzam
http://www.gentoo.org/images/gwn/20070205_zzam.jpg

Matthias Schwarzott[5] is a 25 year old developer. He lives in Erlangen,
Germany with his girlfriend Charlotte. Matthias studies technomathematics,
which is basically an expensive word for mathematics and technology, at the
Friedrich Alexander University of Erlangen-Nuremberg. There he studies Java
programming, working with algorithms, programming computer graphics in C++,
and Electrical Engineering.

   5. zzam@g.o

Matthias has worked at Siemens, where he was a C/C++ programmer, and
currently works part-time as a Systems Administrator for a company that
operates web games. When Matthias is done with his studies, he hopes to be
able to start working as a programmer.

Though he's pretty busy with school, work, and Gentoo, Matthias still finds
some free time for his hobbies. He enjoys classic dancing (e.g.
cha-cha/waltz/etc.), cooking, and exercising. Matthias’ interest in dancing
developed at school, where he took dance classes, and was rekindled when he
and his girlfriend started taking classes together. His favorite recipes
include streusel cake and pizza.

Matthias started using Linux in the summer of '97 after growing tired of
Windows 3.11. He read about SUSE 5.0 and decided to give it a try, later
moving on to Debian, and finally settling on Gentoo in the 1.4 days. After
buying a DVB card to setup a VDR box, he started to gain interest in
becoming a Gentoo developer. He used to compile programs by hand, then tried
using ebuilds, and started sending his own contributions to Stefan
Schweizer[6]. After his recruitment process, zzam became the VDR project
lead. He reflects back upon the substantial growth the VDR project has
enjoyed and is anxious for what the future may bring. He is looking for
active contributors to implement patches and help maintain the existing
patch sets. He attributes his developer drive to the simple fact that he
enjoys helping users.

More fancy desktops: Metisse

Figure 3.1: Metisse X-Server screenshot
http://www.gentoo.org/images/gwn/20070205_metisse.jpg

Hanno Boeck[7] recently added Metisse[8] to his subversion overlay. Metisse
is the answer from Mandriva[9] to compiz and the whole 3D-desktop craze.
Metisse has some features that give it the ability to transform the shape of
windows, including rotating, scaling, and zooming. It is even possible to
make a parallelogram from a window! Mettisse runs on its own X server, which
is luminocity/Xgl-like and a modified variant of fvwm.

   7. hanno@g.o
   8. http://insitu.lri.fr/metisse/
   9. http://www.mandriva.com

Currently, Metisse only works on x86, but upstream is working on support for
amd64 and other architectures. A new version should be released soon to
resolve some of the known bugs. For more information on where to get the
sources, and how to start the environment, please read Hanno's original blog
post.

deleted ._cfg files

Kamen TOMOV was worried because he had deleted his ._cfg files from a recent
update. The answer was the use of the --noconfmem option to emerge. With
--noconfmem, portage will "forget" that it has already made a ._cfg file for
a CONFIG_PROTECT file, thus causing portage to reinstall the ._cfg file
needed for updating.

Migrating gentoo to a new machine

Seo Boon had happily used Gentoo on his old notebook for some time and over
time had developed a set of packages installed that he very much liked.
However, he recently got a shiny new notebook and on that notebook he wanted
the exact same package set he had on the old notebook since it had served
him so well. He soon figured out though that a simple copy of
/var/lib/portage/world from the old machine to the new one did not work. The
list eventually settled on taking the old world file and running the
following on the new machine.

+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Code Listing 3.1                                                          |
| Duplicating world                                                         |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| # emerge -va --noreplace $(cat old_world_file)                            |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+

This command will install all of the files in the old_world_file while also
adding them to the world of the new machine. The --noreplace was added in
case some packages had already been installed, in order to avoid repeating
one's self.

[RFC] Maintainer Timeout

Timothy Redaelli opened a discussion about perhaps adding some official
"Maintainer Timeout" in which there would be an official amount of time that
a maintainer of a package would have to respond to a bug report before any
developer would be able to jump in and fix the bug themselves. While an
interesting idea, consensus seemed to center around a post by Grant Goodyear
describing the proper application of common sense. Many devs agreed that
they have mixed feeling on the ownership of ebuilds, and that if a developer
can fix a problem and know they can do so within the realm of using their
common sense to not make a problem worse, that they should go ahead and fix
the problem.

4. Gentoo in the press
======================

IBM DeveloperWorks (31 Jan 2007)
--------------------------------

Martyn Honeyford writes about how to accurately measure the amount of memory
in use on a Linux system, as well as giving practical advice on how to
reduce your memory requirements. In the article, Gentoo is recommended for
the ability to recompile applications with user-specified CFLAGS to reduce
memory usage, and for USE flags that can greatly reduce the size of needed
libraries.

KSirc: Denial of Service vulnerability
--------------------------------------

KSirc is vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack.

For more information, please see the GLSA Announcement[10]

  10. http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-200701-26.xml

ELinks: Arbitrary Samba command execution
-----------------------------------------

ELinks does not properly validate "smb://" URLs, making it vulnerable to the
execution of arbitrary Samba commands.

For more information, please see the GLSA Announcement[11]

  11. http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-200701-27.xml

thttpd: Unauthenticated remote file access
------------------------------------------

The default configuration of the Gentoo thttpd package potentially allows
unauthenticated access to system files when used with newer versions of
baselayout.

For more information, please see the GLSA Announcement[12]

7. Gentoo package moves
=======================

This section lists packages that have either been moved or added to the tree
and packages that have had their "last rites" announcement given to be
removed in the future. The package removals come from many locations,
including the Treecleaners[13] and various developers. Most packages which
are listed under the Last Rites section are in need of some love and care
and can remain in the tree if proper maintainership is established.
