Hey #Fedora community. A friend of a friend is looking for a Fedora10 pin and/or a sticker or some other merch with the Fedora10 branding on it. Can you help me with that? I know 2008 was ages ago:)

I tried the Fedora Atomic Cosmic Desktop iso and it was very impressive. Cosmic is the most responsive UI I’ve used that isn’t called Workbench. Sadly, Steam had some issues with controllers and while it seemed solvable, it didn’t seem like a clean solution. I’m going to miss Cosmic and will definitely check it out again once it is really done because it is super cool. Now, Bazzite is installing away.

I bought an inexpensive mini-PC that came with Ubuntu pre-installed. That's fine, but I have no interest in running that; I want to run Fedora. Preferably Silverblue. But every attempt I've made to install Silverblue ends up with the error the commmand 'ostree admin --sysroot=/mnt/sysimage deploy --os=fedora fedora:fedora/42/x86_64/silverblue' exited with the code 1 which leads to

I suspect the tutorial that is needed is not how to install Linux, but rather how to install anything that wasn’t already there when you bought your computer.

Another post on #Quansight PBC blog: "BLAS/LAPACK #packaging"
#BLAS and #LAPACK are the standard libraries for linear algebra. The original implementation, often called Netlib LAPACK, developed since the 1980s, nowadays serves primarily as the origin of the standard interface, the reference implementation and a conformance test suite. The end users usually use optimized implementations of the same interfaces. The choice ranges from generically tuned libraries such as OpenBLAS and BLIS, through libraries focused on specific hardware such as Intel® oneMKL, Arm Performance Libraries or the Accelerate framework on macOS, to ATLAS that aims to automatically optimize for a specific system.
The diversity of available libraries, developed in parallel with the standard interfaces, along with vendor-specific extensions and further downstream changes, adds quite a bit of complexity around using these libraries in software, and distributing such software afterwards. This problem entangles implementation authors, consumer software authors, build system maintainers and distribution maintainers. Software authors generally wish to distribute their packages built against a generically optimized BLAS/LAPACK implementation. Advanced users often wish to be able to use a different implementation, more suited to their particular needs. Distributions wish to be able to consistently build software against their system libraries, and ideally provide users the ability to switch between different implementations. Then, build systems need to provide the scaffolding for all of that.
I have recently taken up the work to provide such a scaffolding for the Meson build system; to add support for BLAS and LAPACK dependencies to Meson. While working on it, I had to learn a lot about BLAS/LAPACK packaging: not only how the different implementations differ from one another, but also what is changed by their respective downstream packaging. In this blog post, I would like to organize and share what I have learned.
