[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`.

[arch-announce] `base` group replaced by mandatory `base` package - manual intervention required
by Arch Linux: Recent news updates: Robin Broda 06 Oct '19

06 Oct '19

The `base` group has been replaced by a metapackage of the same name, we advise users to install this package (`pacman -Syu base`), as it is effectively mandatory from now on.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…

[arch-announce] astyle>=3.1-2 update requires manual intervention
by Arch Linux: Recent news updates: Antonio Rojas 26 Aug '19

26 Aug '19

The astyle package prior to version 3.1-2 was missing a soname link. This has been fixed in 3.1-2, so the upgrade will need to overwrite the untracked soname link created by ldconfig. If you get an error `astyle: /usr/lib/libastyle.so.3 exists in filesystem` when updating, use `pacman -Suy --overwrite usr/lib/libastyle.so.3` to perform the upgrade.

The tensorflow packages prior to version 1.14.0-5 were missing some soname links. This has been fixed in 1.14.0-5, so the upgrade will need to overwrite the untracked soname links created by ldconfig. If you get an errors like so `tensorflow: /usr/lib/libtensorflow.so.1 exists in filesystem` `tensorflow: /usr/lib/libtensorflow_cc.so.1 exists in filesystem` `tensorflow: /usr/lib/libtensorflow_framework.so.1 exists in filesystem` when updating, use `pacman -Suy --overwrite=usr/lib/libtensorflow.so.1,usr/lib/libtensorflow_cc.so.1,usr/lib/libtensorflow_framework.so.1` to perform the upgrade.

[arch-announce] mariadb 10.4.x update requires manual intervention
by Arch Linux: Recent news updates: Christian Hesse 27 Jun '19

27 Jun '19

The update to **mariadb 10.4.6-1** and later changes configuration layout as recommended by upstream. The main configuration file moved from `/etc/mysql/my.cnf` (and its include directory `/etc/mysql/my.cnf.d/`) to `/etc/my.cnf` (and `/etc/my.cnf.d/`). Make sure to move your configuration. Instantiated services (like `mariadb(a)foo.service`) are no longer configured in separate files (like `/etc/mysql/myfoo.cnf`). Instead move your configuration to configuration blocks with group suffix in main configuration file, one for each service. A block should look something like this: [mysqld.foo] datadir = /var/lib/mysql-foo socket = /run/mysqld/mysqld-foo.sock ... Like every mariadb feature update this requires the data directory to be updated. With the new configuration in place run: systemctl restart mariadb.service && mariadb-upgrade -u root -p URL: https://www.archlinux.org/news/mariadb-104x-update-requires-manual-interven…

by Arch Linux: Recent news updates: Antonio Rojas 14 Jul '18

The libutf8proc package prior to version 2.1.1-3 had an incorrect soname link. This has been fixed in 2.1.1-3, so the upgrade will need to overwrite the untracked soname link created by ldconfig.
