[arch-dev-public] X.Org 7.4 moves to extra
by Jan de Groot 30 Nov '08

30 Nov '08

X.Org 7.4 has been moved to extra. After sitting in testing for quite some months, it's time to move this package. This version fixes quite some issues present in the old version we had in extra. This version contains some important changes: - Input hotplugging is enabled by default now. See http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xorg_input_hotplugging for more information. - nvidia-71xx is no longer supported and has been removed from the repositories. Affected users should install xf86-video-nv or xf86-video-vesa, complaints can be sent to nvidia for not providing compatible drivers.

[arch-dev-public] Coming back
by Tom K 30 Nov '08

30 Nov '08

Hi all. Before I say anything else - my apologies for not only being inactive, but also for not keeping in touch. Life has been challenging recently, and remains so in many ways, but I feel that now would be a good time to get back to Arch business. Anyway, onwards. Welcome to the new guys - great to see you here. I've been reading the lists, so I think I'm up to date with most things. I see I lost a bunch of extra packages in that orphanisation incident - which is fine. I also see 1300+ orphans still left, so I reckon I won't be stuck for work. :) I still have 16 core packages, so I'll be looking at those first. In no particular order: renaming lzo2 to lzo - as brought up on this list last month. lzo is also out of date, so that works out nicely. openvpn - will need a rebuild because of the above, and is also the subject of four FRs in Flyspray. openswan - our package is 2.4.11, current release is 2.6.19... I may have missed one or two there... :P libldap - we've been using the 2.3.x releases, when we should be using the 2.4.x - latest stable release, and all that stuff. This will bring a soname bump, so I'll put together a To-Do for it when the time comes. portmap - rebuild to enable tcpwrapper support, as per FS#7096 I also have a minor BR about linuxdcpp, which is now orphaned and out of date, but I'll fix and update it anyway. After that, I think it should go to Community, unless anyone else here wants it - I don't anyway. If I find myself pining for anything that I used to look after, I may come looking. Feel free to say "Well, wtf were you when it needed updating??" :) One small housekeeping request: Aaron, could you authorise tomk(a)runbox.com for this list, and tom(a)archlinux.org for the arch-dev list? Thanks. That's it for now. Good to be back, see you around the water-cooler. Tom K.

[arch-dev-public] RFC: crda PKBUILD
by Thomas Bächler 30 Nov '08

30 Nov '08

Linux 2.6.28 will support a new wireless regulatory domain infrastructure. Instead of the limited number of hardcoded regulatory domains in cfg80211 (EU, JP, US), there will be a userspace daemon that manages regulatory domains. We could still enable the "old" regulatory domain in the kernel. However, I would like to disable it, so kernel26 will have dependency (or optdependency) on crda (as would compat-wireless, if someone builds it with the new regulatory framework enabled). The package includes the crda and regdbdump binaries, as well as a binary regulatory.bin database and a udev rule. John Linville's RSA public key is hardcoded in both crda and regdbdump, so they will only accept regulatory.bin files signed by him. (The build system allows to include other public keys and the data to build the regulatory.bin is publicly available.) I am attaching the PKGBUILD for crda. # $Id: $ # Maintainer: Thomas Bächler <thomas(a)archlinux.org> pkgname=crda pkgver=0.9.4 pkgrel=1 pkgdesc="Central Regulatory Domain Agent" arch=(i686 x86_64) url="http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/Regulatory/CRDA" license=('custom') depends=('libnl' 'libgcrypt' 'udev') makedepends=('python-m2crypto' 'git') source=(http://wireless.kernel.org/download/crda/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.bz2) md5sums=('dddd9c0f08e7e447a29fc5b8eed5179f') build() { # Install crda, regdbdump and udev rules msg "Compiling and installing crda ..." cd $srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver make crda regdbdump || return 1 make DESTDIR=$pkgdir install || return 1 # Install and verify regulatory.bin file msg "Downloading and installing the regulatory.bin file ..." cd $srcdir if [ -d wireless-regdb ]; then cd wireless-regdb git pull cd .. else git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-regdb.git fi install -D -m444 wireless-regdb/regulatory.bin $pkgdir/usr/lib/crda/regulatory.bin || return 1 if $pkgdir/sbin/regdbdump $pkgdir/usr/lib/crda/regulatory.bin > /dev/null; then msg "Regulatory database verification was succesful." else error "Regulatory database verification failed." return 1 fi msg "Installing license ..." install -D -m644 $srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver/LICENSE $pkgdir/usr/share/licenses/crda/LICENSE || return 1 }
