XMMS being removed |
12 |
------------------ |
13 |
|
14 |
As many of you are probably aware, XMMS is being removed from the tree next |
15 |
month. XMMS has many bugs and requires heavy patching, upstream development |
16 |
and bug-fixes have ceased in favor of the forthcoming XMMS2 and XMMS has no |
17 |
Gentoo maintainer. Audacious is compatible with existing themes and the |
18 |
various Audacious developers have been working with the Gentoo community to |
19 |
ease the transition. |
20 |
|
21 |
More information about this change can be found at |

#gentoo-uk under new management |
25 |
------------------------------- |
26 |
|
27 |
With the recent retirement of Gentoo developer Tim Yamin (plasmaroo), the |
28 |
the #gentoo‑uk IRC channel is now managed by Roy Bamford[1]. The #gentoo-uk |
29 |
IRC channel is an English speaking IRC channel mainly for discussion of |
30 |
Gentoo, Linux and other computer related topics. As it is a small channel, |
31 |
the topic rules are relaxed depending on the current business of the |
32 |
channel. However, #gentoo-uk has grown by 25% or so over the last year and |
33 |
as a result, #gentoo-chat has been created as an 'overflow' to allow |
34 |
otherwise off-topic conversations to be started or continued when on-topic |
35 |
chatter picks up in #gentoo-uk. This appears to be working well so far, with |
36 |
most users nudging one another to move to #gentoo-chat to allow on-topic |
37 |
conversations to have priority in the main channel. |
38 |
|

40 |
|
41 |
There are no residency requirements for dropping in or being a regular - the |
42 |
channel already has several continental contributors. As #gentoo-uk is much |
43 |
quieter than the main #gentoo English language support channel, new IRC |
44 |
users may find it a better place to get started than #gentoo - getting to |
45 |
know their IRC clients and make their mistakes within a small friendly |
46 |
group. It also works well for trying to resolve those protracted issues as |
47 |
there is less distracting material being posted. |

CJK team looking for help |
53 |
------------------------- |
54 |
|
55 |
The Gentoo CJK team is understaffed, most of the packages in the tree are |
56 |
old and not actively maintained (on the Gentoo side). As support for CJK |
57 |
languages is something Gentoo would rather not lose, Diego Pettenò |
58 |
(Flameeyes) asks that people interested in maintaining some of the packages |
59 |
contact the CJK team, so that eventual proxy maintainers can be appointed |
60 |
(and eventually lead to the mentoring of the most interested). |
61 |
|
62 |
Please contact the CJK team[2] if you're interested in maintaining a package |
63 |
already in portage or if you want to add a new package that might replace |
64 |
one already there. |
65 |

Scheme team looking for help |
69 |
---------------------------- |
70 |
|
71 |
The Gentoo Scheme herd maintainers are seriously understaffed at this time. |
72 |
Interested parties will either need to currently be a Gentoo developer, or |
73 |
be willing to become a developer to begin maintaining these packages. |
74 |
|
75 |
If you have an interest in Scheme and the Gentoo project, you are encouraged |
76 |
to contact recruiters@g.o and start working towards becoming a |
77 |
developer today. |
78 |
|
79 |
Turkish translation team needs your help |
80 |
---------------------------------------- |
81 |
|
82 |
The newly-revived GWN Turkish translation team is looking for help |
83 |
translating the GWN each week. Interested parties need good written English |
84 |
and Turkish skills and the availability to work on a weekly schedule. If |
85 |
you're interested in helping with the team, please contact the GWN at |
86 |
gwn-feedback@g.o for more information. There is also a Turkish IRC |
87 |
channel, #gentoo-tr, which could use soem more Turkish-speaking visitors and |
88 |
would be a great place to collaborate on the translations. |

97 |
date in emerge logs |
98 |
|
99 |
Jorge Almeida wanted to know if the cryptic numbers (e.g., "1161911504") at |
100 |
the beginning of each line in his emerge log were dates, and if so, how to |
101 |
render them human readable. Harm Geerts confirmed that the figure was Unix |
102 |
time ("the number of seconds elapsed since midnight UTC on the morning of |
103 |
January 1, 1970, not counting leap seconds") and suggested translating it |
104 |
using Python. |
105 |
|
106 |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
107 |
| Code Listing 2.1 | |
108 |
| Converting from UNIX time with python | |
109 |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
110 |
| $ python -c "import time; print time.ctime(1161911504)" | |
111 |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
112 |
|
113 |
Bo Ørsted Andresen suggested using awk, instead. |
114 |
|
115 |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
116 |
| Code Listing 2.2 | |
117 |
| Converting from UNIX time with awk #1 | |
118 |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
119 |
| $ tail /var/log/emerge.log | awk -F: '{print strftime("%D %X %Z", $1),$2}' | |
120 |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
121 |
|
122 |
Peter Ruskin amended this to be shorter and less internationally ambiguous |
123 |
in its output. |
124 |
|
125 |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
126 |
| Code Listing 2.3 | |
127 |
| Converting from UNIX time with awk #2 | |
128 |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
129 |
| $ tail /var/log/emerge.log | awk -F: '{print strftime("%c", $1),$2}' | |
130 |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
131 |
|
132 |
The last (and to Jorge most suitable) solution was Richard Fish's. |
133 |
|
134 |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
135 |
| Code Listing 2.4 | |
136 |
| Converting from UNIX time using date | |
137 |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
138 |
| $ date -d @1161911504 | |
139 |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
140 |
|
141 |
There were also suggestions for more portage-specific solutions: Neil |
142 |
Bothwick suggested emerging app-portage/genlop, an emerge log parsing |
143 |
application. Harm Geerts suggested qlop, which is part of the |
144 |
app-portage/portage-utils package. |

148 |
resolv.conf question/Editing /etc/init.d/net.eth0 to pass options to dhcpcd |
149 |
|
150 |
Two different users were having similar problems with dhcpcd and |
151 |
resolv.conf. When he booted, Matthew Lee's resolv.conf file was being |
152 |
overwritten by a version with no DNS nameservers in it. Michael Sullivan |
153 |
wanted dhcpcd not to overwrite his resolv.conf. |
154 |
|
155 |
Richard Fish suggested that Michael read /etc/conf.d/net.example. He pointed |
156 |
out that if Michael really wanted full control of his dhcp options, he could |
157 |
use something like dhcpcd_INTERFACE="DHCP PARAMETERS". However, an easier |
158 |
way to accomplish the goal would be generic dhcp parameters in the form |
159 |
dhcp_INTERFACE="nodns". |
160 |
|
161 |
Novensiles divi Flamen had the same suggestion for Matthew, while Vikas |
162 |
Kumar suggested dns_servers_INTERFACE=( "DNS SERVER 1 IP" "DNS SERVER 2 IP" ). |

gentoo-catalyst |
168 |
--------------- |
169 |
|
170 |
Finally getting around to building live CDs with Catalyst |
171 |
|
172 |
Ed Borasky is using catalyst to build a Gentoo-based live CD for advanced |
173 |
applied mathematics (see |
174 |
http://rubyforge.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/Rameau/Rameau.pdf?root=cougar&view=co ). During the course of building, he had to unmask the hard-masked |
175 |
sys-apps/gli, the Gentoo Linux Installer. He wanted to know if that was |
176 |
correct and also how to create a live CD without installer. |
177 |
|
178 |
To the first question, Andrew Gaffney suggested use of portage_overlay in |
179 |
the spec file or unmasking gli in Ed's snapshot. To create a non-installer |
180 |
live CD, gli should be removed entirely from the spec file. |
181 |
|
182 |
Ed also wanted to know how to install some testing packages and whether |
183 |
there was an overlay for make.conf. Chris Gianelloni said that there wasn't |
184 |
by design (since catalyst's purpose is creating releases, for which unstable |
185 |
software cannot be used). However, Ed could mark whatever packages he wanted |
186 |
stable in his snapshot. |
187 |
|
188 |
Ed responded that since he needed only a few unstable packages, this would |
189 |
work for him. |

Author Ben Drawbaugh details how to upgrade the hard drive in a Series3 |
199 |
TiVo. What software does he recommend to use when copying your data to your |
200 |
shiny new drive? Why, Gentoo, of course. Drawbaugh describes using the |
201 |
Minimal InstallCD and dd to copy the data. |

XMMS and friends: |

----------------- |
328 |
|
329 |
Due to the large volume of packages in the XMMS masking, they have been |
330 |
added into a section of their own. This is to ensure that they get proper |
331 |
exposure, as this affects many people and is a hotly-debated item. |
