[arch-dev-public] [signoff] + help needed readline rebuilds
by Aaron Griffin 01 Jul '09

01 Jul '09

So I finally pushed the core readline/bash packages to testing. The reason it took so long was a) a mkinitcpio issue which was fixed a few weeks in, and b) the fact that I couldn't keep up with the extra packages in my limited freetime. So, I've just built the core packages, and put them in testing for a signoff. These packages are: bash readline device-mapper heimdal inetutils lvm2 sqlite3 There are LOTS of packages in extra and community that need rebuilds. The original output from Allan's script is as follows: abiword-plugins abook afterstep amule bc cdcd clisp ecasound evms fluidsynth freeciv fvwm fvwm-devel genius gftp gnokii gnuchess gnupg gnupg2 gnuplot gnutls gphoto2 guile gutenprint hugs98 jack-audio-connection-kit kdeedu koffice lftp libgda libqalculate librep libxml2 lua maxima mono-debugger mysql-clients ntp ocfs2-tools octave pal parted php pilot-link postgresql postgresql-libs python python24 r ruby smbclient socat swi-prolog texlive-bin tftp-hpa twinkle uml_utilities unixodbc vice wvstreams xine-ui I'm going to slowly work through these throughout the day, but if someone can help, that'd be great. Let me know if I broke anything - been using bash 4 for some time with little or no problems

[arch-dev-public] The [community-testing] repository
by Thomas Bächler 30 Jun '09

30 Jun '09

I think this has been requested and discussed a few times and I talked to several people about it, so I want to outline my ideas here: When moving the community db scripts to the new svn-based scripts, a community-testing repository should be created. With the new scripts, handling this is incredibly easy. And here is why: Rebuild sprees. We have the problem now with readline: libreadline.so.6 is in testing and community packages are built against .so.5. [testing] users cannot use everything from [community] and once we move everything to core and extra, it takes too much time for [community] to catch up. The [community-testing] repository will solve that: While the dev team does rebuilds in [testing], the TUs do the same in [community-testing]. When everything is done, a developer can move the core/extra and community packages simultaneously. This is not only useful for SONAME bumps, but also for kernel updates (there's a few kernel modules in [community]). I suggest this should be set up as soon as [community] is moved to SVN-based scripts, as the upcoming libjpeg rebuilds will break too many packages and we need to rebuild not only the [extra] but also the [community] packages in time. That's how I see it, opinions?
