[arch-dev-public] Warning: kde-unstable broken
by Pierre Schmitz 23 Jul '09

23 Jul '09

The package in kde-unstable for x86_64 are missing some meta information like deps, pkgdesc etc.. This seems to be a regression in makepkg; so be careful; It might be best to not update or install anything from kde-unstable-x86_64 for now.

The scripts now work flawlessly :) I think you can now safely remove the DBG messages from db-functions. F

Yay, it works! I have also tested other scenarios at home on a custom repo (extra file, out-of-date file, etc) without any glitch. Unless someone objects, I guess you can now update the cronjob for ftpdir-cleanup. F

Just tried them with another texlive pkg, and I get this: [francois@gerolde ~]$ /arch-new/db-update testing ==> Processing 1 new/updated arch-independent packages for 'testing'...

Validating package arch (any) texlive-latex3 Checking SVN for texlive-latex3 Updating DB for testing-i686 ==> Copying DB file from 'testing'... ==> Processing 1 new/updated packages for repository 'testing'...

Checked out revision 46883. Copying new files to '/srv/ftp/testing/os/any/' and symlinking error: repo lock doesn't exist... something went terribly wrong! However things appear to have worked: [francois@gerolde ~]$ ls -l /srv/ftp/testing/os/*/texlive* -rw-r--r-- 1 francois ftp-extra 59983 2009-07-20 13:15 /srv/ftp/testing/os/any/texlive-latex3-2009.14222-1-any.pkg.tar.gz -rw-r--r-- 1 francois ftp-extra 386464 2009-07-20 06:00 /srv/ftp/testing/os/any/texlive-science-2009.13945-1-any.pkg.tar.gz lrwxrwxrwx 1 francois ftp-extra 67 2009-07-20 13:15 /srv/ftp/testing/os/i686/texlive-latex3-2009.14222-1-any.pkg.tar.gz -> /srv/ftp/testing/os/any//texlive-latex3-2009.14222-1-any.pkg.tar.gz lrwxrwxrwx 1 francois ftp-extra 67 2009-07-20 13:15 /srv/ftp/testing/os/x86_64/texlive-latex3-2009.14222-1-any.pkg.tar.gz -> /srv/ftp/testing/os/any//texlive-latex3-2009.14222-1-any.pkg.tar.gz But the symlinks for texlive-science have disappeared! For sure they were there for both arches earlier today (I had made the one for x86_64 by hand, coz db-update had failed). I thus assume that those two symlinks were removed by some running cronjob. Idea? Both packages are still present in the db, however: [francois@gerolde ~]$ tar tf /srv/ftp/testing/os/i686/testing.db.tar.gz | grep texlive texlive-latex3-2009.14222-1/ texlive-latex3-2009.14222-1/depends texlive-latex3-2009.14222-1/desc texlive-science-2009.13945-1/ texlive-science-2009.13945-1/depends texlive-science-2009.13945-1/desc [francois@gerolde ~]$ tar tf /srv/ftp/testing/os/x86_64/testing.db.tar.gz | grep texlive texlive-latex3-2009.14222-1/ texlive-latex3-2009.14222-1/depends texlive-latex3-2009.14222-1/desc texlive-science-2009.13945-1/ texlive-science-2009.13945-1/depends texlive-science-2009.13945-1/desc So, something fishy is going on with the symlinks and the repo_unlock for x86_64... I have to leave now. But I might have a closer look later tonight. Cheers F

[arch-dev-public] Time to go forward with arch=any?
by Firmicus 20 Jul '09

I've just prepared pre-release packages of TeXLive 2009. They should be ready for release (upstream) within the next 4-8 weeks. Before that, I'd *really* love to benefit from arch=any. That would save considerable space on gerolde, as well as bandwidth, and would also speed up my task with building/uploading. Any prospect of making the transition to the new dbscripts soon? We could use the testing repo first to check that everything runs as expected. F

by Thayer Williams 20 Jul '09

A few bug fixes and a number of enhancements. See http://www.mutt.org/doc/devel/UPDATING for details. It looks like there are some optional deps listed as mandatory, but I didn't go mucking with them as I sort of borrowed this package *ahem*. Signoff please.

Please signoff both architectures. The new version fixes CVE-2009-0692 (https://www.isc.org/node/468). I have cleaned up the PKGBUILD and removes our patches. So please test it carefully and report any issue to the bugtracker or the ML. On works here on my PC, but it needs definitely more testing. Daniel
