Just a FYI: If you use Fedora and using Wezterm, the latest version of wezterm from COPR is an empty package due to some buggy spec change; you have to install wezterm-gui and wezterm-mux-server to make it actually installed

there is already an issue created here that you can follow: https://github.com/wezterm/wezterm/issues/7502

256k packages were downloaded from my #Linux #kernel vanilla #copr repositories[1] for #Fedora Linux 41 during its lifetime, which ends today, as it becomes EOL.

That's ~30k more than for Fedora 39, and 20k less than Fedora 40[2].

[2] I guess is due to a subpackage being separated and thus not shipped in my coprs anymore

Either someone found the vanilla #linux-next builds fpr #s390x useful, which I enabled a few days ago in my #Fedora Linux #copr[1] – or it was just some AI crawler that made the number in the download stats go up from 0 to 32. 🤷

These days you never know. #moderntimes #kernel #LinuxKernel

Amazing! The #Fedora #COPR is one way to try it, even on #AtomicDesktops like #uBlue

Some things that come to my mind:
- adjustable size
- padding to left/right so it doesnt take up all the screen
- nice show/hide functionality with a button, swiping, dynamically
- functional keys (Ctrl, Alt, Super, Arrows, Fn keys, ...)

Woo! Grateful for the #Fedora #COPR repos! I know installing things from third party repos willy nilly is a bad idea, but I was having trouble figuring out how to install the #wezterm I'd build from source (You can't really set cargo run --bin wezterm as your default Terminal Emulator!) and I was happy to see that I could just dnf install it with desktop integration and all the bells and whistles in place.

@cgwalters we started using bootc images for Copr builders and so far everything works great.

Copr builders powered by bootc

As of today, all Copr builder virtual machines are now being spawned from bootc images, which is no small feat because the builder infrastructure involves multiple architectures (x86_64, aarch64, ppc64le, s390x), multiple clouds (Amazon AWS, IBM Cloud), and on-premise hypervisors. It scales up to 400 builders running simultaneously and peaking at 30k builds a day.

Updated #TaskJuggler to the latest version in my #COPR repository for @fedora :

https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/ankursinha/rubygem-taskjuggler/

TaskJuggler is an Open Source project management tool. It's full of great features---scheduling, resource allocation, gannt charts, reports and reporting, all of it. See the documentation here: https://taskjuggler.org/documentation.html

I use it to manage all my work projects, and it's a real boon. Give it a go!

Any #DataScience people here?

I have a huge #BeaconDB dataset here, recorded with #NeoStumbler.

I would like to play around with it a bit, display densities of radio devices on a map.

I know #QGis, is it reasonably easy to import a CSV file there, assign the coordinates to some columns etc?

Alternatively I know a bit of #R, but #RStudio is #Electron now, so that could get a hassle XD

Btw, there is a #Fedora #COPR for R-Cran packages, how is the situation on #NixOS?

Syslog-ng also thrives on IBM #POWER. When it comes to #RedHat Enterprise Linux (or compatible), my packages are built on @fedora #Copr:

Copr: build your Fedora / RHEL packages for POWER

I’m often asked, how can I be an IBM Champion for POWER, if I do not own an IBM POWER server or workstation. Yes, life would definitely be easier if I had one. However, I have an over 30 years history with POWER, and there are some fantastic resources available to developers for free. Both help me to stay an active member of the IBM POWER open source community. Talos II POWER9 mainboard Last time I introduced you to the openSUSE Build Service.
