[arch-dev-public] db-remove slightly broken on x86_64
by Allan McRae 08 Sep '09

08 Sep '09

Hi, I was running db-remove on weechat in [testing] (the version in [extra] was updated and no longer needs a rebuild for ruby) yesterday and I got some weird output. [allan@gerolde ~]$ /arch/db-remove weechat testing i686 ==> Removing package 'weechat' from 'testing'... Checked out revision 51221. Removing from subversion Removing from testing DB file (i686) ==> Extracting database to a temporary location... ==> Searching for package 'weechat'... ==> Creating updated database file 'testing.db.tar.gz' Package files will be cleaned up automatically [allan@gerolde ~]$ /arch/db-remove weechat testing x86_64 ==> Removing package 'weechat' from 'testing'... Checked out revision 51222. Removing from subversion Removing from testing DB file (i686) ==> Extracting database to a temporary location... ==> Searching for package 'weechat'... ==> ERROR: Package matching 'weechat' not found. ==> No packages modified, nothing to do. Package files will be cleaned up automatically error: repo lock doesn't exist... something went terribly wrong! I'm guessing the PKGBUILD is sourced and the arch variable is overwritten... I am a bit busy to look into this at the moment so I am flagging it for someone else to look at. Allan

Hi due to changes in latest cups package this module is conflicting. Shall we advise the users to blacklist usblp or shall we disable it by default in kernel config?

[arch-dev-public] thunderbird 2.0.0.23
by Paul Mattal 06 Sep '09

06 Sep '09

Because of the security vulnerabilities fixed in thunderbird 2.0.0.23, I decided to build it for myself ahead of schedule. In so doing, I discovered it wouldn't build for me, and located a patch to fix it. I attach the modified PKGBUILD and the patch here, perhaps to save some others some effort. Built and running successfully on i686-- used to send this message, in fact. Provenance of the patch is Fedora, via this thread: http://groups.google.com/group/mozilla.dev.apps.thunderbird/browse_thread/t… - P # $Id: PKGBUILD 46668 2009-07-19 15:08:42Z jgc $ # Maintainer: Alexander Baldeck <alexander(a)archlinux.org> # Contributor: Dale Blount <dale(a)archlinux.org> # Contributor: Anders Bostrom <anders.bostrom(a)home.se> pkgname=thunderbird pkgver=2.0.0.23 pkgrel=1 pkgdesc="Standalone Mail/News reader" arch=('i686' 'x86_64') license=('MPL' 'GPL') url="http://www.mozilla.org/projects/thunderbird" provides=('mozilla-thunderbird') conflicts=('mozilla-thunderbird') replaces=('mozilla-thunderbird') depends=('gtk2>=2.16.5' 'gcc-libs>=4.4' 'libidl2>=0.8.13' 'mozilla-common' 'nss>=3.12.3' 'libxt' 'shared-mime-info') makedepends=('zip' 'pkgconfig' 'imagemagick>=6.5.3.10-1' 'libgnomeui') options=('!makeflags') source=(ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/releases/${pkgver… mozconfig thunderbird.desktop thunderbird-1.5-lang.patch firefox-2.0-link-layout.patch thunderbird-appversion.patch xulrunner-elif.patch thunderbird-2.0-visibility.patch) md5sums=('2e118fcf752ee60ce994f1471f9632d1' '17e3015259da53f40bc445b27078f693' 'ea4e3c3dee98e3891bef16409551eb6e' 'bc6f10a06407faee6494acad546aabf9' 'b933c00957ea793fe940f4d46a85e10e' '63dd0436e43e2de71abcf9160a1a6f44' '38457261a6355365079dbe5c2342ec68' '50345f0dc7b1fc59c3bb9fb49a19b7e5') build() { cd "${srcdir}/mozilla" patch -Np1 -i "${srcdir}/thunderbird-1.5-lang.patch" || return 1 patch -Np1 -i "${srcdir}/firefox-2.0-link-layout.patch" || return 1 patch -Np1 -i "${srcdir}/thunderbird-appversion.patch" || return 1 patch -Np1 -i "${srcdir}/xulrunner-elif.patch" || return 1 patch -Np1 -i "${srcdir}/thunderbird-2.0-visibility.patch" || return 1 cp "${srcdir}/mozconfig" .mozconfig if [ "${CARCH}" = "x86_64" ]; then echo "ac_cv_visibility_pragma=no" >> .mozconfig fi export MOZ_PROJECT=mail unset CXXFLAGS unset CFLAGS make -f client.mk build || return 1 make DESTDIR="${pkgdir}" install || return 1 rm -rf "${pkgdir}/usr/bin/defaults" install -m755 -d "${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications" install -m755 -d "${pkgdir}/usr/share/pixmaps" convert "${srcdir}/mozilla/mail/app/default.xpm" \ "${pkgdir}/usr/share/pixmaps/thunderbird.png" || return 1 install -m644 "${srcdir}/thunderbird.desktop" \ "${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/" || return 1 install -m644 "${srcdir}/mozilla/mail/app/default.xpm" \ "${pkgdir}/usr/lib/thunderbird-2.0/icons/" || return 1 rm -f ${pkgdir}/usr/lib/pkgconfig/thunderbird-ns{s,pr}.pc } diff -up mozilla/configure.vis mozilla/configure --- mozilla/configure.vis 2009-08-19 14:43:58.000000000 +0200 +++ mozilla/configure 2009-08-19 15:15:11.000000000 +0200 @@ -8015,7 +8015,7 @@ EOF if ${CC-cc} -Werror -S conftest.c -o conftest.s >/dev/null 2>&1; then if egrep '\.(hidden|extern_private).*foo_hidden' conftest.s >/dev/null; then if ! egrep '\.(hidden|extern_private).*foo_default' conftest.s > /dev/null; then - ac_cv_visibility_pragma=yes + ac_cv_visibility_pragma=no fi fi fi

[arch-dev-public] Away, wedding day...
by Eduardo Romero 05 Sep '09

05 Sep '09

I know, this is not development related, but my wedding is in a few hours and I'm a bit anxious. Oh, and I forgot, I'll be away until Monday, so the Arch Linux Magazine will be delayed a bit, but it will be worth the wait, this time I does really contribute to it. Guys, I'm a bit, nervous.
