[arch-dev-public] pidgin maintainer wanted/where is pizzapunk?
by Andreas Radke 21 Sep '09

21 Sep '09

several devs have bumped Pidgin in last few months because its maintainer "pizzapunk" is absent for months now and never giving any words in our discussions. we should find a new maintainer for this application. it's widely used in our community. I myself don't want to do this work. the new packager should think about moving in farsight2 from community to extra for adding video/audio support. but user feedback is still showing poor quality of that implementation (fedora also has it enabled in their devel tree). anybody interested? on the other site we should send again a ping out to all devs asking if they are still aboard. Alex(kth5) is also absent for years now and maybe more guys have silently left us. -Andy

[arch-dev-public] PHP 5.3 in [testing]
by Pierre Schmitz 17 Sep '09

17 Sep '09

Hi all, will move a first set of PHP 5.3 packages to testing.This is a major update which might break some scripts but at least the configuration file php.ini will need a manual update. And instead of abusing optdepends there are now separate packages for some optional modules like the one for postgresql etc.. Some notes: * update your php.ini * module path is now /usr/lib/php/modules * session, mbstring and zlib are now built in * the fileinfo module is now built in and no longer a separate package * mysqlnd is anabled; so libmysqlclient is no longer needed * Setting default-character-set in my.cnf causes encoding problems * Set date.timezone in php.ini * third party extensions need to be updated * the Suhosin 0.9.8 is included; please read http://www.hardened-php.net/suhosin/download.html * There are also new versions of the suhosin and apc extension make sure to review their configuration as well PHP was split into the following packages: php php-apache php-cgi php-curl php-enchant php-gd php-gmp php-intl php-ldap php-mcrypt php-odbc php-pear php-pgsql php-pspell php-snmp php-sqlite php-tidy php-xsl Note that for using php on a webserver you either need the cgi or apache sapi. The sqlite package includes the sqlite3 drivers; the legacy sqlite2 drive is included in the php package itself. Any feedback is welcome, Pierre -- Pierre Schmitz, http://users.archlinux.de/~pierre
