Someone asked a place to get a good burger in Bradford. Easy... Bank Street.
Some folks are using old style ldconfig invocation in their RPM spec files. Please use the new way. fedoraproject.org/wiki/Chang…
Yes... I had a spring clean of git forks. Organising does help us not miss things. πŸ˜‰
Let's get back to @fedora 30 testing. Now @gnome 3.32.1 has been released, we can test and see where we are with general and blocker bugs.

Had to download and manually install @code. Seems we have a repo data issue as the RPM is on the server. [philwyett@ks-kenobi ~]$ sudo yum reinstall code Installed package code-1.33.1-1554971173.el7.x86_64 not available. Error: Nothing to do [philwyett@ks-kenobi ~]$ Whoops. πŸ™ƒ

This weekend will be some @fedora 29 to 30 upgrade path testing. We'll see what issues arise, if any.

Other news. Today I have been accepted as a volunteer trainer at the @HortonHousing training centre here in Bradford. Initially, I will be creating and delivering a beginners I.T. course and possibly other things as time progresses. Very happy with this opportunity.

Let's start with @gnome related issues and a little shopping later on.
Am I listening to way too many podcasts, when I spot in first couple words that we have entered @GEICO, @brushhero, @Wrangler or @Castrol adverts? 🀣
For the people who have asked. Yes, my @fedora email alias/forwarder address is kathenas@fedoraproject.org. This just forwards to philwyett@kathenas.org, so I never use it, no real need to.
Morning all. πŸ‘‹ A nights sleep that is an improvement over lately. Not a normal one or good, but not complaining and hope it improves further.
After days of pain and days of trying to manage that pain and carry on. It feels great to be sat doing things and relaxing in no pain whatsoever. πŸ“£πŸ˜€
No @gnome mutter 3.32.1 update as yet even the announce made. So let us build and test git master. 😎

Still waiting on @gnome mutter folks to drop 3.32.1 tarball. Need this with commit f0b9654d - core: Remove startup sequences after timeout. #fedoraiswaiting
