[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

You should also remove the redland/raptor dependency in this case. Please let us know when we can move all packages to testing. -Andy

[arch-dev-public] Namcap 3.0 coming soon
by Rémy Oudompheng 13 Mar '11

13 Mar '11

Hello people, Namcap can still be found at the usual Git repository. I should release version 3.0 in a few days. Here are some highlights of what's new: * it works with Python 3.x (tested with Python 3.2) * it no longer outputs crazy contradicting messages about dependencies missing/unneeded at the same time (FS #15591 and #17166) * it finally can read split PKGBUILDs : a very basic rule has been implemented (FS #15027). It is however as poorly useful as the old depends module * it has a fairly extensive test suite (with currently 3 expected failures) * new rules have been implemented (FS#23003, FS#22881, FS#22929, FS#18852) * the help message gives more useful information about available options * the undocumented option "-r list" giving the rule list is now the documented option "-L" Big changes in code have been made : * it works with Python 3 * it uses the distribute module to build * the rules and the tests are derived from abstract base classes to help with code factorization * rules are in the rules/ subdirectory * the PacmanPackage class has a dictionary-API which avoids using hasattr/getattr/setattr everywhere and gives more Python-looking source code * none of the rules needs a complete extraction of a tarball. Only ELF files are written to disk because neither objdump nor readelf wantes to read from stdin. * parsepkgbuild is now a wrapper in /usr/bin and an auxiliary script in /usr/share which is run under "bash -r". -- Rémy.

Dear all, I have put dnsutils-9.7.3-1 in [testing]; it combines: - a minor upstream update; - support for IDN (from idnkit); - support for DNSSEC signature chasing. For example, it is now possible to do things like dig 例え.テスト and dig . DNSKEY | grep -Ev '^($|;)' > trusted-key.key dig +sigchase eurid.eu Please test and signoff. -- Gaetan

Major upstream update. Test well. There is no soname bump, but experience tells me that some rebuilds will probably be required to fix minor issues. Signoff both, Allan

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] util-linux 2.19-4 & co
by Ionuț Bîru 02 Mar '11

02 Mar '11

Hi, in util-linux 2.19-4 i disabled the experimental --enable-libmount-mount. FS#23014 kernel26 2.6.37.1-2 and mkinitcpio 0.6.8-2 has a versioned dependency for util-linux 2.19 to avoid the case when kernel initrd is regenerated without having any util-linux package. FS#23011 -- Ionuț
