Implementation of credential delegation in pyKerberos
by Joshua Warburton 08 Apr '14

08 Apr '14

Hi there, I'm not sure that this is the correct place to be posting this, but it's the closest I can find. I've implemented an extra function for python-kerberos that allows credentials to be cached and then used to authenticate to other services using said credentials. I am interested in pushing these changes upstream so that others can use this functionality and I was wondering how I'd go about doing this. Thanks, Joshua Warburton Irax Ltd.

PyKerberos status
by Rob Crittenden 14 Mar '14

14 Mar '14

Are there plans to do another PyKerberos release? I'm using this in the FreeIPA project and I'm currently using the released 1.1 version plus some patches but it would be nice to have an updated official release since quite a lot has changed since 1.1 There aren't a ton of open tickets right now, but some have patches (including one of mine). I'm the packager in Fedora so I can go ahead and push my patch there but that makes it harder to run FreeIPA on other platforms without making other maintainers carry this patch as well. thanks rob

What client library does Apple's AddressBook use
by Sriram Karra 14 Mar '14

Can anyone comment on what webdav library/wrapper Apple's AddressBook uses? I would assume it is CalDAVClientLibrary, but I notice subtle differences in the code which make me doubt that theory.

Mailing List for release announcements?
by Rahul Amaram 10 Mar '14

Hi, Is there any list where release announcements are made? It would be good to have release announcements posted to calendarserver-dev as well (I believe this is currently not being done). Regards, Rahul.

Error with Files backend in Debian Jessie
by Rahul Amaram 05 Mar '14

05 Mar '14

Hi, I am trying to run calendarserver 5.0 on Debian Jessie. While postgresql backend seems to work fine, I have been facing issues with files backend (I have user_xattr enabled). Could some feedback be provided on this? I am attaching the error.log for reference. The errors with timestamp 18:31 popped up as soon as I started calendarserver. The errors with timestamp 18:33 were encountered when I tried to authenticate to calendarserver. Early response would be much appreciated so that I could push the new Debian package to testing. Thanks, Rahul.

Debian updated package 4.2
by Fredrik Unger 05 Mar '14

05 Mar '14

Hi, I updated my personal package to 4.2. https://tree.se/debian/ There were three minor changes, fixing a few SQL statements for 0.1.4, adding python-psutil as dependency, debianizing PGSOCKETDIR. I will improve on packaging, this was the first attempt. The server starts and http://localhost:8008/ works in the browser. Not tested any further. Not a SAFE upgrade path, and it might eat your cat. It is for testing on a empty server without any important data. With regards to the SQL patch. Looking at trunk some of these SQL statements are OK for 0.1.4, some are not. It is the same problems with 'primary key(' and 'unique(' as in Ticket #759. http://trac.calendarserver.org/ticket/759 Example from current trunk (r10297) is line 186 vs 192. http://trac.calendarserver.org/browser/CalendarServer/trunk/txdav/common/da… Still not a big deal and calendar server does not support 0.1.4, but 0.1.2 http://trac.calendarserver.org/browser/CalendarServer/trunk/support/build.s… Not sure it makes sense to open a bug against the SQL issue as new code got added with 'primary key(' sql. It is after all a sqlparse bug. Better for packagers to patch it I think, as the distribution is using the "wrong" version. To fix it is just to add a space, and the issues is now well known. Thanks /Fred

error in CalDAVClientLibrary
by Atli Thorbjornsson 01 Mar '14

I'm not quite sure how to issue pull requests (not much of a svn user). I found a bug in browser/commands/query.py where there was no way to actually set end date via -e. Please find attached svn diff output. Only too happy to submit via other means if need be. Atli.
