Write a script to download jGrasp from http://www.jgrasp.org/dl4g/jgrasp/jgrasp203_05.zip and install it to the appropriate directory in /usr/local/

@axk4545 @ct-martin When installing TigerOS GNOME edition to my physical laptop, the bootloader fails to install properly.

When I select the exact same configuration on the official Fedora 26 distro, the installation goes fine.

Is the copyright held by an individual or the club? If it is an individual, who is it?

• Move CI scripts to a new /build-scripts folder
• Move /design to /packages/tigeros-logos and /packages/tigeros-backgrounds
• In the design folders, there should be an assets/project files folder for the SVG and Krita files (for example, /packages/_design-assets or something
• Move /scripts to /packages/tigeros-scripts
• Move the src rpms to /packages/_src-rpm

This will make life easier by structuring directories similar to the packages, making the CI conversion easier as well and making life easier for the end user by removing all the CI stuff from their face.

The lock screen is still using the default Fedora one on the LiveCD, we should change it to the TigerOS one if we can

When using the removal script on IT/WMC, error occurs:

firewall-cmd: error: unrecognized arguments: --del-port=22017/tcp

This can currently be fixed by using firewalld to open port 27017 up for mongodb instead of semanage

The dnf install command needs a "yes"/"quiet" flag in the install command (creates more prompts for install). Also, @axk4545 has more bugs with this (will add later).

Implement testing of builds. Fedora contributor Ben Williams suggested openqa

Support greater user base (Debian+Ubuntu)
Part of CI in #29
Should not be a major time investment

We have a few options:

1. Fedora custom iso generated with kickstart(current state)
   • Allows custom iso so any configs and changes can be included in image, minimal work for user. essentially a remaster
2. Ubuntu minimal iso and kickstart based install
   • slightly less flexible. cannot embed customizations in image, maybe limited as kickstart is the RedHat autoinstall method
3. Ubuntu minimal iso and preseed install
   • slightly less flexible. cannot embed customizations in image, minimal work for user but would require learning how to make a preseed on our end.
4. Ubuntu minimal iso and ansible playbook to customize system
   • easiest approach however all of the custom stuff would be done post install, more work for user.
     There are of course a few other options. Let me know what you think.

Currently there is code in the ks that should trigger postinstall to run on first login. This is still being debugged and could be improved. We also need to work out how we want to trigger the enablerpmfusion script (maybe in postinstall before the case statement?)
@Tjzabel @Josh1147582 any help is appreciated.

I am thinking we should include the RITFOSS and RITLUG stuff and rit.edu. What else should we add?

adding --ignore-missing to the removal script at least on lines 69 and 84

postinstall script calls spin.sh and alloy.sh in the SE installation area, but they are never actually installed for the user in the kickstart.

Current location set for spin.sh:

/usr/local/bin/se/spin.sh

Current location set for alloy.sh:

/usr/bin/tigeros/se/alloy.sh

Currently RPMs are updated, built and added to the repo manually. It would be nice to script this funtionality so that we can have changes pushed to github trigger rebuilding of RPMs and updating of the repo.
The GH sources affected are those for the scripts and possibly the branding.

For help ask about Fedora SOP in #fedora-admin and #fedora-devel on freenode

Need to redo travis.yml to run script in docker container of Fedora 25 x86_64

• GNOME Dark Theme by default (arc-dark?)
• Paper icon theme (by default)
• Better/different default font (Overpass?)
• Dash to dock defaults all working

My notes:

• Rumor of issues with dark theme and Firefox. Also, does this affect 57?
• Liberation Sans as default Document font

This may just be a syntax issue with gsettings. I will look into it.

What packages would be useful to the RIT community (students, new Linux users, professors,etc) and should be included in our distribution?
below are some suggestions I have. Currently I am envisioning that the base image will include very few packages and we will specify what to add.

• Base: wget, libreoffice, thunderbird, gimp, inkscape, rhythmbox, htop, vim, zsh, nano, wine, hexchat, lynx, evince, firefox, chrome, grscreenshot, vbox, openjdk

• IST/WMC: mysql/mariadb, mongodb, apache, nodejs, php, jGrasp, filezilla, subversion

• NSSA/CIT: wireshark, python, git, jGrasp

• CS: Intellij, Pycharm, racket, prolog, logisim jar, my wget script to fetch assignments https://github.com/axk4545/linux-stuff/blob/master/fetch, JFLAP(http://www.jflap.org/jflaptmp/may15-2011/withoutSource/JFLAP.jar) see license http://www.cs.duke.edu/csed/jflap/jflaptmp/aug28-09/license.html for conditions

• SE: java, ruby, Alloy (http://alloy.mit.edu/alloy/download.html), Spin (http://spinroot.com/spin/Man/README.html, sqlite3, eclipse

• Base packages added

• IST/WMC

• NSSA/CIT

• CS

• SE

The website's "Download" buttons point to tigeros.ritlug.com. Since we moved the site, the downloads are going to be moved elsewhere. The website download buttons should point to the new download source.

Work with upstream Fedora and parallel project Korora to get a permanent fix for the issue with UEFI boot and the anaconda-installclass related to the location of grub boot files.

They are currently in /boot/efi/EFI/fedora and are placed there by the grub2 package from upstream Fedora. This prevents dualbooting Fedora with TigerOS as that directory is used by both OSes and installing either after the other overwrites the files in that directory.

We have temporarily accepted that dualbooting is not possible with this set up but would like to work with Korora and Fedora to make this easier to do in the future.

We should either have Dash to Dock depended by a ui-tweaks package or similar (so gets added to builds, however, we decided that the repackaging should be pure and that config stuff for repackaged packages should be in another package, such as a ui-tweaks/similar).

see #4
We need a script to install/setup the packages based on user choices in our postinstall script. alternatively we could do these thing in the overall post install script. Input welcome @RITlug/rit-linux-team

Using this post install script as a base create a script to revert each of the changes made in each case statement. eg rm files that were manually copied, dnf remove packages, clean up or backup configs. Let me know in Telegram or IRC if you have questions.

Custom branding and wallpapers. Branding should be implemented as an RPM package per #12

Reminder issue to track progress of CI and remember to remove/merge nightly branch once the CI is stable and ready to deploy to our main build server

Summary

We need to follow up with some third-party projects about their plans for packaging and if we can include the software in TigerOS before the first release.

Background

Earlier, we reached out to various third-party projects that RIT uses for software in labs. Some of them had licensing issues or weren't packaged yet for Fedora. Some of them gave hard, "yes" "no" answers, others were interested but needed follow-up later.

Details

We need to follow up with some of these projects about any changes or updates before the next release. It will be helpful if we can include software that students are already familiar with, and if the upstream projects are cooperative, then we can help make it happen. To do this, we need to follow up with those projects.

Action

1. Identify projects to follow-up with
2. Find contact info for those projects, email asking for update on licensing / usage for TigerOS
3. If positive answer, work on packaging apps for Fedora, to be included in TigerOS (whether packages proper or via COPR)

Modify and rebuild this package to include custom bookmarks.
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=798930 it will be hosted in the same place as our branding RPM

Given that the RIT wireless network connection is generated by the connect-rit script on a completed install, how do we want to manage wifi during the install? should we have instructions on the wiki or should we use the script and just copy the config file to the new system after the install or something else? @RITlug/rit-linux-team

Create script to install following packages.

• Intellij
• Pycharm Edu edition
• racket(wget source from here and build
• prolog
• logisim jar
• my wget script to fetch assignments https://github.com/axk4545/linux-stuff/blob/master/fetch
• JFLAP(http://www.jflap.org/jflaptmp/may15-2011/withoutSource/JFLAP.jar) see license http://www.cs.duke.edu/csed/jflap/jflaptmp/aug28-09/license.html for conditions

Script to download and install below packages to /usr/local/ subdirectories as appropriate
http://alloy.mit.edu/alloy/downloads/alloy4.2.jar
http://spinroot.com/spin/Man/README.html#S1a

Putting in an issue until I get a chance to do them

• Fix order of JS scripts
• Make the header background a real image embed instead of CSS trickery
• Make Popper JS from a CDN

Looking for opinions. Will crop out black border & get at a better resolution in the final versions.

Summary

The TigerOS website needs to be hosted on the public web so we can point people at our project in time for Mini Maker Faire on Saturday, Nov. 18th.

Background

@jrtechs helped create our website in #69. All background details for the website are found in that PR.

Details

The website is a helpful resource to point people at in an exhibition hall, and also is a more "friendly" takeaway for a visitor than our GitHub repo. I want to get this hosted in time for the Maker Faire so we can point people at our project and to help us gain some momentum there.

I've assigned @Serubin to this issue to help with infrastructure concerns. Ideally, this should be run on Titan. I'm not sure what the preferred way to do this is, so Solomon should be able to answer.

Even though #72 open, I don't consider that a blocker for getting the site up by Maker Faire.

Action

Please discuss this at the next TigerOS meeting (or earlier) and plan to have the website hosted by the Maker Faire.

@axk4545

looking in /usr/lib/systemd/user I saw redshift.service (0513 iso)

however, a look at the file shows there is no argument assigned or invocation of the gtk package (redshift-gtk) for selecting any of the cool configurations for redshift.This lack of arguments even a --help or similar to let the user ( assuming not all students would be familiar with redshift or its numerous functions/arguments just solely on use of TigerOS or attendance at RIT :). I'd almost argue providing a README or linkage to it would be valuable in the ExecStart as a one time script/mention for redshift.service.

tigeros-bookmarks package is being installed during build but the bookmarks are not present in the installed copy of Firefox. I have cleared the firefox data and reinstalled the bookamrks package and the issue still persists. any ideas?

We can pull upstream releases from here and write a spec like this

So can categorize topics, such as "User Docs," "Building," "Internal/Meeting Notes"

Setup a mirror to download isos on titan. We will also need an rpm repository to host the packages for our logos and branding to replace the generic branding. @Serubin

@ReginaTL mentioning since you are doing branding.

Summary

Make the three logos we use at the bottom of our website (RITlug logo, GitHub, Open Source Initiative) all the same size

Details

The size of the three images isn't consistent and it makes the spacing a little old when they're viewed horizontally.

The three images should all be the same size so the boxes are symmetrical.

Action

Set the same width and height on all of the images (or find alternatives for the logos if they don't scale correctly)

Dev docs are no longer up to date, once #29 is done they should be rewritten.

Black and dark grey @ct-martin @ReginaTL whoever wants it... (low priority)

on the postinstall run (which still needs a explicit invocation on 0513), you see:

Error: This repository does not have any builds yet so you cannot enable it now.
Last metadata expiration check: 0:02:17 ago on Sun May 14 00:32:46 2017.
No package pycharm-community available.
Error: Unable to find a match.

reason stems from the repo presently being a metadata only repo as evidenced with the repo file contents: proof highlighted by >>> <<<

[phracek-PyCharm]
name=Copr repo for PyCharm owned by phracek
baseurl=https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/phracek/PyCharm/fedora-$releasever-$basearch/

gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/phracek/PyCharm/pubkey.gpg

this is due to soem recent dist-git/copr outages/failures NOTHING to do with the script itself.

as a temporary workaround point the script at:

and optionally the -doc / -plugins rpms in the same directory.
