[arch-dev-public] aur server - ssh key only logins
by Aaron Griffin 16 Jul '09

16 Jul '09

Just an FYI, because I haven't turned this on yet. We are going to switch sigurd to REQUIRE keys for ssh login. Right now password login is allowed, but solely because this is a new machine. If you don't have your keys on there that you need, do it now. Cheers, Aaron

[arch-dev-public] Putting php 5.3 into [testing]?
by Pierre Schmitz 16 Jul '09

16 Jul '09

Hi all, are thee any big rebuilds planned? Otherwise I would like to put version 5.3 of PHP into testing. There is still an issue with suhosin but this way people would have more time to check their scripts. We should also make sure that our Scripts (like AUR) work with the new PHP version. I could help here if there are problems. The good thing is that we don't provide packages with php scripts; so from our side everything is fine. ;-) But seriously: this version has great potential to break lots of especially very old PHP scripts.

[arch-dev-public] testing repo clear out

With no major rebuilds in the [testing] repo at the moment, it would be a good time to have a look at the packages there and see what we can move. Allan

Here's the advantages of 2.1: - More features - I use 2.1 exclusively, so if we switch to 2.1, someone would actively maintain and test openvpn (me) - The "release candidates" are as stable as you would expect a final release, they always work great. Should we switch to openvpn 2.1?

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] libevent-1.4.11-1
by Allan McRae 15 Jul '09

15 Jul '09

Minor upstream update. Changes in 1.4.11-stable: - Fix a bug when removing a timeout from the heap. [Patch from Marko Kreen] - Remove the limit on size of HTTP headers by removing static buffers. - Fix a nasty dangling pointer bug in epoll.c that could occur after epoll_recalc(). [Patch from Kevin Springborn] - Distribute Win32-Code/event-config.h, not ./event-config.h Signoffs needed for both. It was an out of date orphan that I don't actually use, so multiple signoffs would be good... Allan

Yes, from what you describe I think lastsync is overwritten by rsync when community is synced from sigurd. The lastsync file in the community folder on sigurd is 17 days old.
