[arch-dev-public] [signoff] make-3.82-2
by Allan McRae 01 Jun '11

01 Jun '11

Upstream fixes for issues with make-3.82. This should fix all build issues reported due to make-3.82. Any remaining issues are probably not make's fault but need to be addressed in the software being built... Signoff both, Allan

[arch-dev-public] FYI: moved old isos to archive
by Pierre Schmitz 11 May '11

11 May '11

Hi all, just to let you know: I have moved isos from 2008 and older to our archives. They are of no use and recently we found out that at least one tier1 mirror had excluded them which caused some broken symlinks. Greetings, Pierre -- Pierre Schmitz, https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] shadow-4.1.4.2-4
by Ionuț Bîru 21 Feb '11

21 Feb '11

Hi, implemented FS#21391. is needed because > consolekit 0.4.2 changed the default policy and expects that a third party to authorize the user. That works out of the box with graphically login managers as GDM/KDM/LXDM. Note that ck-launch-session hack is still needed in ~/.xinitrc. Tested with gnome and xfce and mounting/reboot/shutdown works. exec ck-launch-session gnome-session exec ck-launch-session xfce-session -- Ionuț

[arch-dev-public] rsyslog in core+base?
by Thomas Bächler 17 Feb '11

17 Feb '11

Please have a look at [1], especially the summary in comment [2]. I'd like to know if anyone wants to maintain rsyslog in core as the new default. We would not add replaces= and move syslog-ng to extra, so this will only affect fresh installations. Anyone interested?

I figured out that the support was disabled cause I was trying to partitionate some tables :). Anyway I've rebuilt with abs the mysql and I have it for my machine, just I thought it was any reason in particular to don't add this. > -- > Andrea > -- Angel Velásquez angvp @ irc.freenode.net Arch Linux Developer / Trusted User Linux Counter: #359909 http://www.angvp.com

[arch-dev-public] towards namcap 2.8
by Rémy Oudompheng 03 Feb '11

03 Feb '11

Hello, Following an earlier discussion, I have stepped forward as a volunteer to continue namcap maintenance: in my personal clone at http://projects.archlinux.org/users/remy/namcap.git/ you may find several patches addressing issues reported in FlySpray. I have also tried to update the NEWS file in some sensible way. Can someone have a look at these? I'd also like to know more about the release process of namcap and the main directions of development? My next goal would be the support for split packages. Regards, -- Rémy.

by Thomas Bächler 02 Feb '11

Upstream update, updated configuration. One small change: Re-added halt/reboot/poweroff, so you can now call 'reboot -f' or 'poweroff -f' from the emergency shell to reboot or shut down (this doesn't work without -f). Please sign off.
