Berkeley Lab Checkpoint/Restart for Linux (BLCR)
This package implements system-level checkpointing of scientific applications
in a manner suitable for implementing preemption, migration and fault recovery
by a batch scheduler.
BLCR includes documented interfaces for a cooperating applications or
libraries to implement extensions to the checkpoint system, such as
consistent checkpointing of distributed MPI applications.
Using this package with an appropriate MPI implementation, the vast majority
of scientific applications which use MPI for communucation on Linux clusters
are checkpointable without any modifications to the application source code.
You must also install the %{name}-libs package and a %{name}-modules_* package
matching your kernel version.
A short description for the package (usually, the %description from the spec
file).
This is not eligible because it needs a kmod. I have packaged that separately
as blcr-kmod using akmods.

blcr-testsuite.x86_64: W: no-documentation
no-doc: Seems trivial
no-dependency-on blcr: I think this is correct. blcr is userland utils only.
devel depends only on libs because libs has the shared libs that devel needs.
Not linked against: This is a problem in upstream. They are aware of it and
say it will be fixed in the next version.
This is my first rpmfusion pkg.

kmodtool upstream
by Till Maas
Aloa,
is there an upstream place for kmodtool? And in which repository should it be?
And why is it not in Fedora (I cannot find it in Fedora and also there seems
to be no review request).
Regards,
Till

NVidia
by Richi Plana
I know this is more a livna question than an rpmfusion one, but since
the livna devs are here:
repoquery --whatprovides nvidia-kmod-common ?
I tried updating my kernel today in F7 to 2.6.23.14-64.fc7 but the
ensuing kmod-nvidia update keeps asking for nvidia-kmod-common that yum
can't seem to satisfy.

RPMFusion - interested
by Valent Turkovic
Hi, I'm just one curious fedora user and interested in how is
RPMFusion process going on. I was obviously very excited when I heard
of merger of these great repos into one - that is really what we users
need. So I thought just to ask how are you doing so fat and when can
we expect (no pressure) to try this wonderful new and full of nice
packages RPMFusion repo? :)
Thanks!
Valent.

infrastructure status
by Thorsten Leemhuis
Hi all!
It's has been silent a bit regarding the infra for RPM Fusion so I
thought it might be a good idea to give a quick status update:
During christmas I installed FAS (Fedora accounts system) on the CVS
box. FAS is no must for us, but in Fedora is the responsible for a lot
of things and thus might be nice to have.
The most important things we need FAS (or something else that does the
same) for: authentification for the look-aside cache, which is ATM the
things that stops us from starting (plague is ready, CVS is ready, but
we need to have the sources somewhere available).
But I'm not good in such things, so it took a while I'm not finished yet
(generating the upload certificate is not working yet); and I didn#t
even find time for it in the past two weeks. Jonathan Steffan offered to
help, but he has no account yet (I afaics can't create one).
That's one problem. The other one: the machine which hosts the xen
instances for cvs and plague seems to crash every few days. That now and
then prevented that I could work on FAS, because it more then once
happened just when I wanted to work on it :-/
I'm not sure how to move on (mainly because I haven't heard anything
from thias (who hosts the boxes) in the past weeks). But afaics we need
this:
- someone (or better two or three persons) with sysadmin, python and CVS
skills and more then a bit free time and who can set up and maintain the
CVS/FAS box (I tried (and will continue to try if no one else shows up),
but my skills are limited and especially my time is limited, as keeping
Livna and EPEL running properly consumes most of it already)
- I can continue to take care of plague (FYI: the configs can be found
in CVS these days)
- either fix the box that hosts the xen instances or find a different
box and move them over
