Plan for ROSA Fresh future stabity and fixing

Moving /var/run and /var/log to /run as symlink to old place

Done: 80%

Reason: Moving this part to tmpfs need for upstream update

Problem: We need Usermode Change to properly work some instruments, like update, drakx utilites, etc

Solution:

Fixed filesystem package:

systemd:

Usermode change

Done: 80%

Reason: We need drop Mandriva changes and use more vanilla rules for Consolehelper. We need using vanilla config-utils, and Fedora-like service/utilites support.

Problem: Some tools, like update or drakclock need using running without root password and this not possible in vanilla code and drop mandriva-system-auth and mandriva-console-auth...

Solution:

We need fix this package:

  • drakxtools
  • drakx-kbd-mouse-X11
  • texlive-tlpkg (TODO: moving apps part to /etc/security/console.apps)
  • rpmdrake
  • drakx-net
  • userdrake
  • urpmi
  • system-config-samba
  • system-config-service
  • urpmi
  • mdkonline

More utilites/tools need using this PAM code

#%PAM-1.0
auth		include		config-util
account		include		config-util
session		include		config-util

But we need create file config-util-user with

#%PAM-1.0
auth 		sufficient	pam_permit.so
auth		sufficient	pam_timestamp.so
auth		include		system-auth
account		required	pam_permit.so
session		required	pam_permit.so
session		optional	pam_xauth.so
session		optional	pam_timestamp.so

And using in this utils

  • MandrivaUpdate
  • xfdrake
  • drakclock
  • drakfont
  • drakkeyboard
  • drakmouse
  • draknetcenter
  • xfdrake

pam file

#%PAM-1.0
auth		include		config-util-user
account		include		config-util-user
session		include		config-util-user

pm-utils replace via systemd

Done: 95%

Reason: Using pm-utils now is deprecated. For acpi part using systemd (poweroff, hibernate, etc). If we try using both, have any problems, like two step poweroff, sleep before poweroff and other. We need stop using pm-fallback-policy and replace needing rules by Fedora power.sh script

Problem: All DE need patching for using systemd. We will need investigate full drop pm-utils and pm-fallback-policy from repo.

Solution:

  • In pm-utils spec pm-fallback-policy now as Suggest
  • Acpid patched for using /etc/acpi/actions/power.sh and /etc/acpi/events/powerconf
  • All part tested in KDE4, Gnome3 and LXDE

Package acpid-2.0.17-3 (in repo) pm-utils-1.4.1-7 (in repo)
