[arch-announce] primus_vk>=1.3-1 update requires manual intervention
by Arch Linux: Recent news updates: Giancarlo Razzolini 25 Nov '19

25 Nov '19

The primus_vk package prior to version 1.3-1 was missing some soname links. This has been fixed in 1.3-1 so the upgrade will need to overwrite the untracked soname links. If you get an error like: primus_vk: /usr/lib/libnv_vulkan_wrapper.so.1 exists in filesystem primus_vk: /usr/lib/libprimus_vk.so.1 exists in filesystem when updating, use: `pacman -Syu --overwrite=/usr/lib/libnv_vulkan_wrapper.so.1,/usr/lib/libprimus_vk.so.1` to perform the upgrade.

[arch-announce] New kernel packages and mkinitcpio hooks
by Arch Linux: Recent news updates: Giancarlo Razzolini 10 Nov '19

10 Nov '19

All our official kernels: linux, linux-lts, linux-zen and linux-hardened, do not install the actual kernel to /boot anymore. The installation is done by mkinitcpio hooks and scripts, as well as removals. There is no need for any manual intervention. The intention is to make the kernel packages more self-contained, as well as making the boot process more flexible, while also keeping it backwards compatible. As of now, only mkinitcpio has hooks for handling kernels installations and removals. We do not ship any for dracut yet, but it will have similar hooks in the near feature.

[arch-announce] Clarification regarding recent email activity on the arch-announce list
by Arch Linux: Recent news updates: Giancarlo Razzolini 25 Oct '19

25 Oct '19

Today, one email was sent to the arch-announce mailing list that was able to circumvent the whitelisting checks that are done by the mailman software. This was not due to unauthorized access and no Arch Linux servers were compromised. We have implemented measures to make sure this does not happen again, by using mailman's poster password feature. We are also making sure, these simple whitelist checks are not used anywhere else. URL: https://www.archlinux.org/news/clarification-regarding-recent-email-activit…

[arch-announce] Required update to recent libarchive
by Arch Linux: Recent news updates: Christian Hesse 16 Oct '19

16 Oct '19

The compression algorithm `zstd` brings faster compression and decompression, while maintaining a compression ratio comparable with `xz`. This will speed up package installation with `pacman`, without further drawbacks. The imminent release of **pacman 5.2** brings build tools with support for compressing packages with `zstd`. To install these packages you need `libarchive` with support for `zstd`, which entered the repositories in September 2018. In order for `zstd` compressed packages to be distributed, we require all users to have updated to at least **libarchive 3.3.3-1**. You have had a year, so we expect you already did update. Hurry up if you have not. If you use custom scripts make sure these do not rely on hardcoded file extensions. The `zstd` package file extension will be `.pkg.tar.zst`.

The `base` group has been replaced by a metapackage of the same name, we advise users to install this package (`pacman -Syu base`), as it is effectively mandatory from now on. Users requesting support are expected to be running a system with the base package. URL: https://www.archlinux.org/news/base-group-replaced-by-mandatory-base-packag…
