[arch-dev-public] [signoff] initscripts-2011.07.1-1
by Tom Gundersen 27 Jul '11

27 Jul '11

Hi guys, It has been almost two months since the last initscripts release, and a lot of small changes have been merged (and a few big ones). In particular, I'd like to point out a last minute addition by Dave: a new script, /usr/lib/initscripts/arch-tmpfiles, which is ran at boot to clean and create files and folders in non-persistent directories (such as /run and /tmp). Daemons that needs this functionality (such as udisks) can get it by putting a .conf file in /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/. This should allow us to support /var/run and /var/lock being symlinked to /run and /run/lock. Please test and signoff. As usual, I'll wait a few extra days before moving to core. Cheers, Tom Changes to rc.conf ------------------ The VERBOSE parameter no longer has an effect, use the kernel's loglevel= parameter instead. Most p If HARDWARECLOCK is empty we will read the value of UTC/LOCAL from hwclock's adjfile instead. To av interacting with the hardwareclock set HARDWARECLOCK="IGNORE". 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 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.

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] iptables 1.4.12-1
by Dan McGee 25 Jul '11

25 Jul '11

Upstream version bump, but much more worthy of testing due to the initscripts getting an overhaul. * No longer do we do manual clearing of rules, instead, empty state files for each table are used by iptables-restore now to clear out the tables. Please test stop/start/restarting of both iptables and ip6tables to make sure it works as appropriate. * Fix https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/24466 and resetting of ip_forward variable; this is now a deprecated feature in this package and we will never touch this value when stopping iptables. -Dan

[arch-dev-public] kernel 3.0 changes
by Tobias Powalowski 23 Jul '11

23 Jul '11

Hi guys, everything is prepared and committed to linux/trunk. Changes: - Rename the package kernel26 -> linux - Added replaces everywhere - Removed old comments and vercmps from .install file - Removed old comments and replaces from PKGBUILD - added compatibility symlinks for vmlinuz26 and initramfs filenames in PKGBUILD, in order to not break bootloader entries. Now stuff to discuss before uploading to testing: - kernel name: vmlinuz-linux or vmlinuz-ARCH - initramfs name: initramfs-linux.img or initramfs-ARCH.img same for fallback of course. - naming it $pkgname (which would be linux, would make it easier for custom kernel building imho) anything else I missed, shout out now :) greetings tpowa -- Tobias Powalowski Archlinux Developer & Package Maintainer (tpowa) http://www.archlinux.org tpowa(a)archlinux.org
