Dealing with blockers - GSOC 2012 - Week 1
Week #1 has come to an end.
I had my engineering finals the week before this and I am glad to report that I am unofficially a Computer Science Engineer! :)
So anyway, this past week I had to deal with some small issues that were blocking my progress and had to finish a small task assigned to me by my mentor to better understand the Conductor codebase.
The issue I was facing was the image-warehouse service (iwhd) was failing due to a segmentation fault on F15. Restarting it was of no avail and the problem persisted. This prompted me to switch to F16 and re-install all Aeolus rpm’s afresh. This, thankfully, was an easy enough task and now I’m all set.
I completed the task assigned to me by Mo, my mentor, and have submitted my first patch. As of today, I’m awaiting it’s approval. This was meant to get me familiar with the git-workflow for submitting a patch. I will be posting the workflow in the coming week. :)
That’s it for now. Keep watching this space for more on my project!
