Fedora 19 - Zoneminder 1.26-4 Selinux issues.

[jimm01]

Testing indicates that Selinux in enforcing mode still is causing some issue's on Fedora 19
for tthese issue to be resolved a bug report to redhat bugzilla is required so that the selinux denial can be resolved
otherwise is stays in the package for other users to get caught up on. For other issues at the moment have a
look at known problems for previous versions in the Bugzilla and some solutions to the problems.

The service file for Zoneminder in Fedora 19 does not work and the README.Fedora file at
https://github.com/ZoneMinder/ZoneMinder/distros/Fedora should be followed for this and
other installation issues.

A Fedora 19 Spec file is also available that has been tested to produce a version 1.26-4 rpm
for anyone who wants to test out this version, All the files required except the Jcalender , mootools and ffmpeg are in the distro/fedora directory.

At this stage the Fedora packagers are little time to package the new version but their is hope that it will be done.

We have been working with the Fedora team to development a better zoneminder experience.
They have acknowledged issues with selinux, and right now solving that is in their court. I'm waiting for them to tell me if there is anything to be done on the zoneminder side.

Note that changes to the distros/fedora folder on github are frequent. Check often.

I'm also working with mastertheknife on cmake related enhancements. For example, if you want to compile zoneminder and place the files into Fedora compliant folders, then in the future you will be able to do something like this:

Code: Select all

cmake -DZM_TARGET_DISTRO="f19" .

Cmake is also capable of building its own rpm during the install process. In time, I'll add that functionality as well.

Here is where I am keeping the latest Fedora RPM/SRPM's:
