Hi all, this is a minor update for xz. Please sign off. Changelog: * xz --force now (de)compresses files that have setuid, setgid, or sticky bit set and files that have multiple hard links.

[arch-dev-public] Server trash cleanup
by Dan McGee 31 Jan '11

31 Jan '11

Things we don't truly need, AFAIK: * gerolde: all of /srv/ftp/archive/pkgs * gerolde: /srv/ftp/iso and /srv/ftp/archive/iso What is our policy on this stuff? Nostalgic, sure, but usable or necessary? We have all sorts of full and base images, scsi-specific, etc. but outside of keeping arch-0.1 do we really want to appear like we care about previous releases? * gerolde: /srv/cvs * sigurd: Unfortunately not a lot here to kill, and our disk is hovering in that 85% range. * sigurd: /srv/cvs Pierre, can we adjust CLEANUP_KEEP down to 30? That is still a lot of time and would at least reduce the burden of space of some frequently updated packages. These are all suggestions, I am not opposed to keeping things if people have a valid reason. But this might also make any backup picture a bit more clear and give us more room and leeway to package some bigger things which seems to be the trend lately. -Dan

by Dan McGee 31 Jan '11

Likely that I won't hear much back, so I'll just move this in a week if nothing else. Just an old package refresh: * Change source location to a git blob URL * makedepends kernel26-headers -> linux-api-headers * Respect $LDFLAGS -Dan

[arch-dev-public] perl 5.12.3
by Ángel Velásquez 31 Jan '11

31 Jan '11

Hi, As you know yesterday a new minor version of 5.12 branch of perl were released. I've recently rebuilt perl 5.12.2 which is in [testing] waiting for signoff to fix a little bug with building with gcc 4.5. So, basicly we have to do the rebuild that we did the last month again for some packages, I can work with this if Kevin isn't available (cc'ing him) so ideally IMO we can start the rebuild of perl dependencies into [staging] then get into [testing] after the week of Feb 5th Opinions? ideas? -- Angel Velásquez angvp @ irc.freenode.net Arch Linux Developer / Trusted User Linux Counter: #359909 http://www.angvp.com

[arch-dev-public] Stop reopening old bug reports.
by Thomas Bächler 30 Jan '11

30 Jan '11

I had this a couple of times now: Some of my bug reports, which have been closed for a over year have been reopened. Please do not do this. While the symptoms are related, the problem is most of the time completely different, and having two issues in one report is only confusing, and it annoys me a lot. Please please, don't do this, tell the users to open new bug reports.
