My long-running repository at ThatFlemingGent [https://www.thatfleminggent.com/rpm-packages] (or “Enlartenment” for those who haven’t caught up) is live and ready for use. As releases have progressed the list I offer has become smaller, as many have been pulled into Fedora proper (either by me or other Fedora

I did my bit: [http://admin.fedoraproject.org/voting] I really do like where things are headed and I’m sure the good work will continue ? There’s been some lively debates on the mailing lists of late, but it’s worked out smoothly and courteously in this humble hacker’

Obligatory Laugh-and-head-shake digression: I’ve been fighting email spam for 12 years plus, and I still see stupid spammers – pardon the tautology – indiscriminately junkmailing abuse@ role addresses. Idiots. Why not just offer crack to a cop? With that thought out of the way… Mike McGrath’s memcached plug [http://mmcgrath.

Techie Happenings: I’ve been tinkering with more XMPP (Jabber to you oldies) messaging in general, as it happens. I’ve had a look at the python Yahoo transport and found it a little lacking – it’s config is a little too different to the python MSN / ICQ / AIM transports

After moving what seems to be several mountains at the workplace over the last few weeks, I’m finally on holiday. Additionally, my girlfriend is back from interstate, which makes me even happier. Alas, nature doesn’t like us and lo, as soon as she stepped off the plane it

Sam released 4.5.0 today (and maildrop 2.1.0, which I’m trying to package up now and having an interesting time tracking a compile problem with the db/gdbm stuff) – I’ve updated my packages for CentOS/RHEL and Fedora in the usual places [https://www.thatfleminggent.

If it’s not notifications / oddly explained failures to build from gcc itself (hello davfs2 [http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/davfs2] on CentOS/RHEL5, where did that fail? Insights welcomed as the build.log is charmingly opaque. Cheers) or flex & bison (Hello vulcan [http://www.fzort.org/mpr/projects/

Hey Yaakov, make that four users [http://loupgaroublond.blogspot.com/2009/05/fedora-devshell-is-now-packaged-in.html] once I’ve set it up, I certainly do like the looks of it. A good tool that makes any job easier is a winner in my book, and that looks like a good one indeed.

When upgrading versions of Fedora, it’s almost never a bad idea to force a SELinux relabel on reboot (or via fixfiles if it’s a little too late ;-)) I yum-upgraded my doorstop-cum-network box without doing so, then had a momentary headscratcher relating to why Dovecot failed to start

I had a bit of free time – and a half-day at work yesterday to boot – so I thought I’d modernise my set of hacked-up shell scripts (calling mock/createrepo/rsync+ssh) and install the all-singing & dancing Koji [http://fedorahosted.org/koji/wiki] suite. Now I’ve done this

ObFedoraContent: I have now permanently retired the Fedora 7 and Fedora 8 sections of my repository. As I mentioned a few nights ago, those with older releases should really consider upgrading to a supported release or move to RHEL/CentOS. Cheers. Skip the rest if you’re only wanting things

A novice once came to a systems software roshi seeking wisdom: “I am troubled. My project has become large and I am having trouble reproducing the environment across test servers. I have all my sources and I’ve installed them from source in the ways our forefathers have, but some
