[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] pciutils 3.1.7-4
by Jan de Groot 04 May '11

04 May '11

Please signoff for both architectures. This update cleans up the PKGBUILD in a way that uses all possibilities that are present in the Makefile: - PREFIX="$pkgdir/usr" is replaced by using DESTDIR - install-lib target is used instead of copying files around This release contains both shared and static libraries. As I don't have any overview of what still needs this static library (default is to ship only static), I decided to keep it in for a while. As we're using the install-lib target, a .pc file is also shipped now.

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] [signoff] mkinitcpio 0.6.9-1
by Thomas Bächler 05 Apr '11

This release fixes some, but not all known bugs. It adds support for xz compressed initramfs. It also includes some massive performance improvements from Dan, which you should especially notice on crappy CPUs like Atom. Please sign off. Shortlog: Dan McGee (8): Move output functions to top of functions file Add new helper functions Use new get_module_name function Use new helper functions instead of system commands Short circuit add module if it already exists in image Add bash in_array function Keep an array of added modules to prevent expensive lookups Use install instead of mkdir/cp Dave Reisner (1): Set pipefail before running get_init_cpio Thomas Bächler (9): Enhance sleep hook to watch for device availability poll_device: Remove -h Remove some obsolete 'export's Revert "mkinitcpio: mount real root device instead of symlink" Use in_array instead of grep -w when checking SKIPHOOKS. poll_device: use 'echo' instead of 'msg'. Improve compression in mkinitcpio Simplify root file system detection Release mkinitcpio 0.6.9 Tobias Powalowski (3): add DAC960 scsi module to scsi hook again add loop module to avoid error messages from btrfs device scan remove loop from btrfs again, not needed

[arch-dev-public] [dbscripts] [PATCH] Add signature files to update/move/remove targets
by Rémy Oudompheng 02 Apr '11

02 Apr '11

Signature files are optional and the previous behaviour is unchanged when signatures files do not exist. Signed-off-by: Rémy Oudompheng <remy(a)archlinux.org> --- This patch was already posted with very slight differences on the mailing-list by Allan. It needed several changes to fit the current state of dbscripts. I hope this one will allow to move forward. Still nothing in the test suite: we would need to run gpg after the extra-*-build invocation and extra checks for the presence/absence of signature files in the repos. cron-jobs/ftpdir-cleanup | 10 ++++++++-- db-move | 3 +++ db-update | 7 +++++++ 3 files changed, 18 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/cron-jobs/ftpdir-cleanup b/cron-jobs/ftpdir-cleanup index 09e8a49..bb1661a 100755 --- a/cron-jobs/ftpdir-cleanup +++ b/cron-jobs/ftpdir-cleanup @@ -10,9 +10,12 @@ clean_pkg() { if ! ${CLEANUP_DRYRUN}; then for pkg in "$@"; do if [ -h "$pkg" ]; then - rm -f "$pkg" + rm -f "$pkg" "$pkg.sig" else mv -f "$pkg" "$CLEANUP_DESTDIR" + if [ -e "$pkg.sig" ]; then + mv -f "$pkg.sig" "$CLEANUP_DESTDIR" + fi touch "${CLEANUP_DESTDIR}/$(basename ${pkg})" fi done @@ -100,7 +103,10 @@ if [ ${#old_pkgs[@]} -ge 1 ]; then msg "Removing old packages from the cleanup directory..." for old_pkg in ${old_pkgs[@]}; do msg2 "${old_pkg}" - ${CLEANUP_DRYRUN} || rm -f "${CLEANUP_DESTDIR}/${old_pkg}" + if ! ${CLEANUP_DRYRUN}; then + rm -f "${CLEANUP_DESTDIR}/${old_pkg}" + rm -f "${CLEANUP_DESTDIR}/${old_pkg}.sig" + fi done fi diff --git a/db-move b/db-move index ced90a3..ff1b0e2 100755 --- a/db-move +++ b/db-move @@ -96,6 +96,9 @@ for pkgbase in ${args[@]:2}; do cp ${pkgpath} ${FTP_BASE}/${PKGPOOL} fi ln -s "../../../${PKGPOOL}/${pkgfile}" ${ftppath_to}/${tarch}/ + if [ -f ${FTP_BASE}/${PKGPOOL}/${pkgfile}.sig ]; then + ln -s "../../../${PKGPOOL}/${pkgfile}.sig" ${ftppath_to}/${tarch}/ + fi add_pkgs[${tarch}]+="${FTP_BASE}/${PKGPOOL}/${pkgfile} " remove_pkgs[${tarch}]+="${pkgname} " done diff --git a/db-update b/db-update index 5bdce5e..4b9c78f 100755 --- a/db-update +++ b/db-update @@ -64,6 +64,13 @@ for repo in ${repos[@]}; do mv "${pkg}" "$FTP_BASE/${PKGPOOL}" fi ln -s "../../../${PKGPOOL}/${pkgfile}" "$FTP_BASE/$repo/os/${pkgarch}" + # also move signatures + if [ -f "${pkg}.sig" ]; then + mv "${pkg}.sig" "$FTP_BASE/${PKGPOOL}" + fi + if [ -f "$FTP_BASE/${PKGPOOL}/${pkgfile}.sig" ]; then + ln -s "../../../${PKGPOOL}/${pkgfile}.sig" "$FTP_BASE/$repo/os/${pkgarch}" + fi add_pkgs[${#add_pkgs[*]}]=${pkgfile} done if [ ${#add_pkgs[@]} -ge 1 ]; then -- 1.7.4.2

[arch-dev-public] [devtools] [PATCH] commitpkg: upload signature if found
by Rémy Oudompheng 01 Apr '11

01 Apr '11

Also move some rsync options to $rsyncopts to help with readability. Signed-off-by: Rémy Oudompheng <remy(a)archlinux.org> --- This patch was part of a patchset posted by Allan two weeks ago. Only one of his patches was merged, this is the second one, which include remarks made by Dan. Along with the dbscripts patch, it would allow current developers to begin signing their packages, and have the signatures transferred to mirrors with a smooth workflow even if signature checking is not fully integrated in pacman. commitpkg | 12 +++++++++--- 1 files changed, 9 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/commitpkg b/commitpkg index dfc2bd1..b478989 100755 --- a/commitpkg +++ b/commitpkg @@ -104,9 +104,9 @@ for i in 'changelog' 'install'; do done # see if any limit options were passed, we'll send them to rsync -unset rsyncopts +rsyncopts="-p --chmod 'ug=rw,o=r' -c -h -L --progress" if [ "$1" = '-l' ]; then - rsyncopts="--bwlimit=$2" + rsyncopts="$rsyncopts --bwlimit=$2" shift 2 fi @@ -134,8 +134,14 @@ for _arch in ${arch[@]}; do continue 2 fi + sigfile="${pkgfile}.sig" + if [ -f "${sigfile}" ]; then + echo "WARNING: No package signature found" + sigfile="" + fi + echo -n 'uploading ' - rsync -p --chmod 'ug=rw,o=r' -c -h -L --progress $rsyncopts --partial "${pkgfile}" -e ssh "$server:staging/$repo/${pkgfile##*/}" || abort + rsync -e ssh $rsyncopts --partial "${pkgfile}" ${sigfile} "$server:staging/$repo/${pkgfile##*/}" || abort done archrelease $repo-${_arch} || abort done -- 1.7.4.2

The packages that need to be fixed are: avahi consolekit cups dbus-core dmraid hal minbif networkmanager sane udisks Some might already be creating the required files on their own, I'll investigate this and update the bug report. At any rate, fixing the remaining packages should be trivial. Cheers, Tom
