[arch-dev-public] The docs/!docs thing again
by Dan McGee 09 Nov '09

09 Nov '09

What are we doing this month with docs? I ask because I was rather shocked to see this: dmcgee@kilkenny /usr/share/doc/gtkmm-2.4 $ pacman -Si gtkmm | grep Size Download Size : 14396.06 K Installed Size : 61660.00 K dmcgee@kilkenny /usr/share/doc/gtkmm-2.4 $ du -sh . 50M . That means ~80% of this package is stuff almost no-one is ever going to look at. That seems a bit overkill to me to include in our packages. -Dan

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] openssl 0.9.8l-1
by Pierre Schmitz 08 Nov '09

08 Nov '09

Moin, you might have heard from the possible MTM attack against TLS. Openssl has released a new version which disabled the affected renegotiation feature. We should move this to core soon. For more information see http://extendedsubset.com/?p=8 and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=CVE-2009-3555 Please note that this is more or less a protocol design flaw which means that every SSL implementation should be affected, not only openssl (e.g. Firefox uses nss and there is also gnutls). So we should have a look at those packages, too. Pierre -- Pierre Schmitz, https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] mdadm-3.0.3-1
by Tobias Powalowski 07 Nov '09

07 Nov '09

Hi downgrade in testing repository due to potential dataloss problems: http://marc.info/?l=linux-raid&m=125748985908870&w=2 Changelog: http://neil.brown.name/git?p=mdadm;a=blob_plain;f=ANNOUNCE-3.0;hb=7f0066ba7… Please update and recreate your initcpio after upgrading. One thing i observed, when using a custom /etc/mdadm.conf file our rc.sysinit will run mdadm --assemble --scan, which will always give exit code 2, due to devices busy. greetings tpowa -- Tobias Powalowski Archlinux Developer & Package Maintainer (tpowa) http://www.archlinux.org tpowa(a)archlinux.org

[arch-dev-public] Vacation Nov 7th - 14th
by Aaron Griffin 07 Nov '09

07 Nov '09

Hey all, I'm heading to Jamaica for a week (next week) and will basically be out of touch for that time. The only internet access I will have will be in random cafes. I will bring my Eee with me just in case. But, if you need anything, I'm fairly certain you guys can handle it. All of you doing admin type work seem competent enough to deal with anything that comes up, so I will not have anything to worry about. If, for some random reason, people need to get a hold of me, I can get incoming text messages for free. Dan knows my number. If anyone else wants it, let me know. Anything that needs doing before I go? You have until Friday :) Cheers, Aaron

[arch-dev-public] Arch Devs at ArchCon
by Dusty Phillips 06 Nov '09

06 Nov '09

Hey guys, I don't belong on this list anymore, but nobody had the good sense to delete me, so here I am emulating a Travis. As some of you are likely aware, we're planning to host an ArchCon in Toronto in July. I'm estimating a two day conference, maybe three, but we need people to make it interesting. Dan's already considering doing about fifty talks, 42 of which should be pretty awesome. If the rest of you could all do another fifty, it'd be real nice, y'know? Well.... no, but seriously, if anyone thinks they can make it and can do a talk or two on packaging or developing, or namcap or cat herding, or whatever, it'd make things much cooler. I know it's a long way for Europeans and Aussies to come, but a few North American developers presenting would be nice. Toronto is relatively central to the continent, so it shouldn't be too bad a trip for a lot of people. I'd love to offer some financial assistance as incentive to come, but I don't think we can afford it. There will be a reduction in registration fees, but those aren't going to amount to much compared to hotel, driving, or flight expenses. (Your primary benefit for doing this will be the chance to meet me. I'll let the people who have had that displeasure describe how you don't want to miss out on that experience.) On that topic (money, not meeting me), does anyone here object to donating a few hundred dollars of donation money to supporting the conference? Or Schwag money (which is kind of the same thing eventually, I dump it in donations to Aaron if I don't spend it on more schwag, conferences, or maybe a new system for myself...)? Also on that topic, if you know a company that may be interested in having their name plastered all over the archcon site, the walls at the conference, and any schwag shipped with the conference in exchange for more monetary support, let me know. I'm only looking for a few hundred dollars each from a few different sponsors, it shouldn't break anyone's bank, and I don't expect anyone huge like google or oracle to be interested. Dusty
