[13:05] <clifford> but you can also go to https://www.rocklinux.net/submaster/smadm.cgi?a=list and search for 'SECURITY' with your browsers search function.
[13:05] <clifford> you can't apply it there.
[13:05] <clifford> You can apply it in subversion.
[13:06] <clifford> You have write permissions to the repository

[14:40] <daja77_> dunno, never had both types of packages
[14:42] <clifford> daja77_: according to our ''P'' thingy (I'm not writing the word out here ;-) you are supposed to write a security advisory now.
[14:43] <blindcoder> aaah, the evil word
[14:43] <daja77_> clifford: ok and where to?
[14:43] <th> rock-users for a start?
[14:44] <netrunner> why is linux24-header splitted as :dev?
[14:44] <daja77_> where can I read that P thingie btw
[14:44] <clifford> I'd say rock-users is ok.
[14:45] <clifford> daja77_: I think we don't have a written version of the current P thingie.
[14:45] <daja77_> oh ic
[14:46] <clifford> Documentation/Developers/POLICY is from 2003 ..
[14:46] <clifford> .. and pretty outdated.
[14:47] <daja77_> so only to rock-user?
[14:47] <clifford> I'd say for now it is most important that we do realease security advisories.
[14:47] <clifford> Its not that important how we do it atm.
[14:49] <blindcoder> bury them somewhere in the wiki *eg*
[14:49] <daja77_> no
[14:49] <daja77_> the question is if i should cross-post them to rock-dev
[14:49] <daja77_> hm but i could create a wiki page linking to the advisory mails
[14:50] <th> anyone knows how to create an ISO excluding tar.bz2 packages?
[14:51] <clifford> th: move the *.tar.bz2 files to a different directory, e.g.
[14:51] <th> hmm that would be too easy
[14:53] <clifford> ok. then create an extra dir for the gems, create hardlinks for the gems in this extra dir and patch isofs.txt
[14:54] <clifford> is that complicated enough?
[14:54] <clifford> (that's what the crystal target is doing because not all gems from crystal should go to the cd image)
[14:55] <th> sounds nice.

[15:05] Action: daja77_ waiting to be flamed
[15:09] <netrunner> some structure would be nice.
[15:11] <blindcoder> indeed
[15:12] Action: daja77_ adopting the suse structure
[15:13] <blindcoder> good idea
[15:14] <daja77_> do we want to have announcement ids?
[15:15] <daja77_> sth like RL-2006-03-21-01 ?
[15:15] <daja77_> or perhaps shorter
[15:15] <daja77_> RL-20060321-01
[15:15] <daja77_> would be nice as reference on the wiki too
[15:16] <blindcoder> hmm
[15:16] <blindcoder> RL-Crystal- ?
[15:17] <daja77_> the id would just state that it is one of our announcements, it should be in the announcement which sub distros, targets or whatever are affected
[15:18] <blindcoder> okay
[15:24] <netrunner> I don't think there would be an announcement that only affects crystal and not generic
[15:25] <netrunner> and all generic issues also affect crystal since you can use rock-src to build packages of generic not included in crystal
[15:25] <th> 237M for a bbs bootable cd is still pretty big

[15:39] <stf^rocklinux> th: ok. With it I could successfully create a initrd for QEMUs ARM emulation, and the kernel I build with ROCK boots as well :)
[15:42] <stf^rocklinux> I've tried creating an initrd and bootable kernel for other QEMU system emulations too, but so far I've got only x86 to work ...
[15:43] <stf^rocklinux> Booting x86 kernel and initrd on x86_64 also works ^^

[17:00] <daja77> netrunner: i'll commit security patches into trunk
[17:01] <daja77> if there is an issue pending because of problems, the advisory would of course not state to do sm sync in that case

[21:05] <blindcoder> and the postinstall script overwrites it runtime
[21:06] <th> so my current initrd (see journal) is an overwritten one?
[21:06] <blindcoder> this is so that a known-to-work initrd with current configuration is always present for new kernel version
[21:06] <th> or are you talking of another patch, that's not in yet?
[21:06] <th> (in as in "in my journal")
[21:07] <blindcoder> with fakes patch, yes, it will be overwritten postinstall
[21:07] <blindcoder> yes, it's already in

[21:09] <th> blindcoder: well so i have a postinstall version. and it's still broken. so that's because of stf's patch and has nothing to do with fake's patch.
[21:09] <blindcoder> probably. I haven't had time to study each initrd patch closely
[21:09] <blindcoder> the postinstall version fixes the libdl thing
[21:10] <blindcoder> and at least the one I have running still creates the /dev/fd symlink
[21:10] <blindcoder> the one in trunk doesn't anymore
[21:10] <blindcoder> and relies on /lib/udev/devices/fd to be present
[21:10] <blindcoder> which it seems not to be
[21:13] <th> if we do it postinstall - so we can remove all mkinitrd relevant stuff from linux.conf?
[21:14] <blindcoder> no
[21:14] <blindcoder> we still need a file to look at to decide if we need to recreate a new initrd or not
[21:14] <blindcoder> currently that's boot/initrd.img
[21:15] <blindcoder> which comes from linux26
[21:16] <stf^rocklinux> System.map and /lib/modules would be good triggers to
[21:17] <blindcoder> suggest it to fake
[21:17] <blindcoder> it's his patch after all
[21:18] <blindcoder> lib modules probably won't work
[21:18] <blindcoder> and I'm unfamiliar with system.map
[21:18] <blindcoder> it's just a symlink isn't it?
[21:19] <stf^rocklinux> yes
[21:20] <blindcoder> sounds good
[21:20] <blindcoder> even more so as initrd.img probably won't get overwritten anyway
[21:20] <blindcoder> since its checksum will have changed

[21:59] <blindcoder> stf^rocklinux: also, what's the difference between initrd_base and initrd_essential?
[21:59] <blindcoder> stf^rocklinux: example:
[21:59] <blindcoder> /etc/conf/initrd/initrd_foo contains:
[21:59] <blindcoder> /foo/        /foo/
[21:59] <blindcoder> /foo/ contains:
[21:59] <blindcoder> "/foo/abc def"
[22:00] <blindcoder> now, that for f in `find $file` will barf about not finding /foo/abc and not finding def
[22:00] <stf^rocklinux> th: first line bug was introduced in 2006031919444902232, so simply use 2006032121380929687 instead
[22:00] <stf^rocklinux> blindcoder: I see...
[22:00] <blindcoder> will become even funnier if "abc def" is a directory
[22:00] <blindcoder> stf^rocklinux: that's why I'm gonna clean it up a bit :)
[22:01] <stf^rocklinux> blindcoder: the problem with the approach find $file | while read f ; is that it's a subshell with it's own local $lib variable o_O
[22:01] <th> stf^rocklinux: so 2006032121380929687 is an alternative to 2006031919444902232? and not an incremental?

[22:04] <th> could you two work out an increment to 2006031919444902232?
