I know a workaround fedora-easy-karma --fas-username --
but that does not work for me either.

when I login the terminal shows all updates, even if i did not install them. (installed 0 days ago)

@frantisekz I know you're using a different username. Could you please look into this and fix the documentation if it's incorrect?

done

@jpbn If you want us to help you, you'll need to improve the quality of your comments. What is "done"?

@jpbn You've sent your reply encoded in base64. I assume you replied from your email and something broke along the way. Please don't do that, use the website interface.

Also, I did not ask you to change the wiki, I asked @frantisekz . I reverted the change for the moment, because your advice was incorrect. Please just stand by and wait.

Hello @jpbn , thanks for reporting the problem, but please do not change the documentation when the behaviour of the application is different from it. The problem might be in the application itself and needs fixing instead of saying in the documentation that it does not work.

I have tried myself on Fedora 32 and there seems to be two problems:

1. in incorrect handling of .fedora.upn
2. in Bodhi communication

I did the following:

• Created a new user kikina whose login name is different from my FAS account.
• Created the ~/.fedora.upn file and put name@mail.com (not exactly this, but my FAS has a similar form) in it and ran fedora-easy-karma from the CLI.
• The script asked me for a password and I put it there.
• Got Warning: Authentication error for user: kikina which means that the value in .fedora.upn was not taken into account.
• The script offered to enter another FAS account, so I used my real FAS account and the corresponding password.
• Got an Python exception raised:

My f-e-k version is fedora-easy-karma-0-0.44.20200427git6fc0f39.fc32.noarch .

@frantisekz , do you need some more info from me?

@frantisekz is now on vacation for the next 8 days or so.
@lbrabec Could you perhaps look into the code instead? Thanks!

@kparal, can you check the PR #18 - I fixed it.

The Bodhi problem was caused by incorrect FAS, because I used name@mail.com where it only accepts name.

@lruzicka So, are you saying that if you fail to authenticate using your current username, FEK asks you to input a new username, and if you provide it correctly, it works just fine? (On current devel branch, without any patch).

@kparal , what is a current devel branch? In the repo, I only see master and three feature branches?

@kparal

on Fedora 33 with updates-testing enabled I installed FEK using dnf install fedora-easy-karma and then ran it with fedora-easy-karma --fas-username username and yes, it is working as expected.

In the PR, I added a feature that looks into the ~/.fedora.upn file and uses the FAS from there, so you can omit the --fas-username switch.

I believe that this is what @jpbn wanted.

See my comments in #18 for details on the ~/.fedora.upn file handling

Thanks,
on Fedora 33 with updates-testing enabled I installed FEK using dnf install fedora-easy-karma and then ran it with fedora-easy-karma --fas-username username and yes, it is working as expected.
That works for me too. So That is a help for me.

Waiting for a solution on the fedora.upn file. (KEF is not updated yet I see)

Thanks again.

@jpbn ,
we are currently discussing the way how the feature will be enabled correctly to let you store your FAS in an external file. This will take some time, so you are free to use the --fas-username as a workaround for the time's being.

Commit bd04bd5d fixes this issue

Commit 36408d14 fixes this issue

This is now fixed and will be part of the next program release. FEK will again be able to read ~/.fedora.upn.

This issue has been migrated to Fedora Forge:
https://forge.fedoraproject.org/quality/fedora-easy-karma/issues/17

Please continue any further discussion there.
