[arch-dev-public] [signoff] netcfg 2.6.6-1
by Rémy Oudompheng 30 Jul '11

30 Jul '11

Hello, I have prepared the netcfg 2.6.6 release. I have let go the previous signoff thread because of several outstanding issues, which I think are now resolved. NEWS except ----------- version 2.6.6 - fix wrong rc scripts names in suspend hook (FS#20330) - fix wireless failure when using wpa-config and a custom ctrl_interface path (FS#24949) - bash-completion: add -r to option list (FS#25188) Regards, Rémy.

[arch-dev-public] [prerelease] util-linux-2.20-rc1
by Tom Gundersen 30 Jul '11

30 Jul '11

Hi guys, A new and very exciting release of util-linux is imminent. Even though we only have an -rc1 so far, I thought it might be worthwhile to put it out there so people can try it out (in case we want anything fixed before the final release): <https://dev.archlinux.org/~tomegun/util-linux-2.20rc1-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz> <https://dev.archlinux.org/~tomegun/util-linux-2.20rc1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz> I enabled libmount support in mount, but this will probably be reverted before the final release unless we have good reason to believe it to be safe. Major changes: - agetty gets most of the features from mingetty. - dmesg gets lots of new filtering capabilities - mountpoint moves here from sysvinit (we probably have to manually remove it from the sysvinit package). We still patch hwclock to move the adjustment file from /etc to /var. I'm not a big fan of this, and hope to have a backwards compatible patch to sort things out before 2.21 is released. Cheers, Tom Util-linux 2.20 Release Notes ============================= Release highlights ------------------ agetty(8): - mingetty features have been merged to agetty chrt(1), taskset(1): - supports new command line option "--all-tasks" to set or retrieve the scheduling attributes of all the tasks (threads) for a given PID dmesg(1): - supports new command line options: --clear, --console-on, --console-off, --ctime, --decode, --facility=<list>, --level=<list>, --show-delta, --notime, --kernel and --userspace fdisk(8): - improved dialogs to be more user-friendly findmnt(8), partx(8), lsblk(8) - support new command line option "--pairs" to enable key="value" output format findmnt(8): - supports new command line options "--poll" and "--timeout" to monitor /proc/self/mountinfo changes ionice(1): - supports human-readable scheduling class names, for example: ionice -c best-effort $PID kill(1): - supports new command line option "-q <sigval>" to use sigqueue(2) - supports real-time signals in formats RT<n>, RTMIN+<n> and RTMAX-<n> libmount: - the API officially stable lsblk(8): - supports new columns: TYPE - device type RQ-SIZE - queue request size STATE - device state (e.g. running, suspended) DALIGN - discard alignment offset DISC-GRAN - discard granularity DISC-MAX - discard max bytes DISC-ZERO - discard zeroes data - supports new command line option "-D" to print device discard topology lscpu(8): - improved support for s390 boxes mkfs.minix: - supports minix version 3 mountpoint(1): - this NEW COMMAND is libmount based re-implementation of mountpoint(1) from sysvinit suite simpleinit: - this set of deprecated utils has been REMOVED Wall(1): - support new command line option "--timeout" to specify write timeout to terminals in seconds. It's not supported to link with external (e.g. from e2fsprogs) libblkid and libuuid any more.

Apparently there is a "security" table in addition to the nat/mangle/raw/filter tables (FS#25272). This just adds a reset file for that as well. Please signoff. -Dan

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] krb5-1.9.1-3
by Stéphane Gaudreault 29 Jul '11

Apply a patch derived from Fedora to fix krb5-config : * Make krb5-config suppress CFLAGS output when called with --libs In unpatched krb5, the output of "krb5-config --libs" contains the current value of the CFLAGS : # CFLAGS="SOME CRAP" krb5-config --libs SOME CRAP -Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Wl,--as-needed -lkrb5 -lk5crypto -lcom_err Now : # CFLAGS="SOME CRAP" krb5-config --libs -Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Wl,--as-needed -lkrb5 -lk5crypto -lcom_err * Omit extra libraries because their interfaces are not exposed to applications by libkrb5, unless do_deps is set to 1, which indicates that the caller wants the whole list. # krb5-config --libs -Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Wl,--as-needed -lkrb5 -lk5crypto -lcom_err instead of # krb5-config --libs -Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Wl,--as-needed -lkrb5 -lk5crypto -lcom_err -lkeyutils - lresolv -ldl Please test and signoff Stéphane

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] initscripts-2011.07.3-1
by Tom Gundersen 29 Jul '11

29 Jul '11

Hi guys, A few more fixes has been added to initscripts, and it should now be ready to go to [core]. Please signoff. I did not revert the loglevel stuff, as the old behavior can easily be obtained in many new ways. Two of which are outlined below. Thanks too all who tested so far. -t Changes to rc.conf ------------------ The VERBOSE parameter no longer has an effect, use the kernel's loglevel= parameter instead. Most people probably wants to pass 'quiet' to the kernel. Alternatively, a new init hook could be added to /etc/rc.d/functions.d/dmesg: sysinit_start () { dmesg -n 3 } If HARDWARECLOCK is empty we will read the value of UTC/LOCAL from hwclock's adjfile instead. To avoid interacting with the hardwareclock set HARDWARECLOCK="IGNORE" (this should never be needed, and might be removed in the future). We now support (optionally) setting the broadcast address in the new network config. Behavioral changes ------------------ We no longer silence errors thrown by udev. In particular, if udevadm --settle times out, we get an error message. We no longer adjust the rtc on boot, as it is unreliable, we only make corrections for the timezone. We no longer mount /run as noexec. Misc changes ------------ Cleaning up of /tmp and friends is now done by an external tool. This tool is intended to allow pac kages to maintain {/var,}/run{/lock,} in the absense of rc scripts. General refactoring which should make maintenance and writing custom hooks easier. Revert the NEED_ROOT functionality. It is now off by default, and has to be enabled by the rc scripts that wants to force root.

[arch-dev-public] Buggy krb5-config script
by Jan de Groot 28 Jul '11

28 Jul '11

This morning when Ionut was trying to update gtk3, he noticed that the CUPS print backend would pull in libgcrypt, which is no longer needed, as GnuTLS depends on nettle now instead of libgcrypt. This bug was quickly resolved with a short patch from Fedora. After fixing CUPS, we found out that CUPS would pull in a lot of other libraries and weird CFLAGS in the cups-config output: $ cups-config --libs -lcups -march=x86-64 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe -I/usr/include/dbus-1.0 -I/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include -DDBUS_API_SUBJECT_TO_CHANGE -Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Wl,--as-needed -lgssapi_krb5 -lkrb5 -lk5crypto -lcom_err -lkeyutils -lresolv -ldl -lz -lm -lcrypt Notice the weird CFLAGS that are copied into the LDFLAGS now. These flags don't come from CUPS, but from krb5: CFLAGS=test krb5-config --libs $ CFLAGS=test krb5-config --libs test -Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Wl,--as-needed -lkrb5 -lk5crypto -lcom_err -lkeyutils -lresolv -ldl So it turns out krb5-config is plain wrong here. Fedora has a patch for this: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=krb5.git;a=blob;f=krb5-1.9.1-buildc… Another quite useful patch would be this: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=krb5.git;a=blob;f=krb5-1.7-nodeplib… I'm not sure about the whole library fixup things they're doing in the first patch, but most important will be the first section of the part that is applied to krb5-config.in. OK to apply this? As krb5 is a dependency of quite some packages, this would reduce lots of unneeded libs those packages.

[arch-dev-public] KDE 4.7 hits [testing]
by Andrea Scarpino 28 Jul '11

28 Jul '11

Hi arKers, KDE 4.7 has been released[1] and our packages are ready in [testing]. As you already know KDE is (slowly) moving to GIT. With this transition some KDE module has been splitted into subprojects, and the remaining modules should be splitted before KDE 4.8. The result of this is that some package (e.g. kdegraphics-libs) is now splitted in several packages and each new package conflicts with the old kdegraphics-libs, so you have to remove it when pacman asks for its removal during the update. Here some info about the splitted modules: - KDE Workspace: wallpapers are now in a separate package named kde-wallpapers, this reduced the kdebase-workspace package download size by 70%. - KDE Graphics: kdegraphics-libs is now splitted in kdegraphics-ksaneplugin, kdegraphics-strigi-analyzer, kdegraphics-svgpart, kdegraphics-thumbnailers, libkdcraw, libkexiv2, libkipi, libksane. Our official packages which depends on kdegraphics-libs have been updated to depend on the new libraries; the upgrade should work without any issue, otherwise please report it to our bug tracker. - KDE Edu: kdeedu-libkdeedu and kdeedu-data have been dropped and libkdeedu will replace them. - KDE Bindings: every subproject has been splitted in two parts: one for the qt bindings and one for the KDE bindings. The old packages have been remove and the new one are: kdebindings-kimono, kdebindings-kross-java, kdebindings-kross-python, kdebindings-korundum, kdebindings-perlkde, kdebindings-perlqt, kdebindings-qtruby, kdebindings-qyoto, kdebindings-smokegen, kdebindings-smokekde, kdebindings-smokeqt. - KDE Accessibility: kdeaccessibility-colorschemes and kdeaccessibility-iconthemes are dropped and replaced. Have a nice update! [1] http://kde.org/announcements/4.7/ -- Andrea
