[arch-dev-public] crypttab support
by Tom Gundersen 15 Jul '12

15 Jul '12

Hi guys, I'm about to push a new version of initscripts in the next few days, but before moving it to testing I thought I'd bring it to everyone's attention as the change is likely to cause some questions/discussion. As discussed on the arch-projects ML [0], with this initscripts release we gain support for systemd's /etc/crypttab syntax [1] (which is used by debian and ubuntu in addition to all the distros using systemd). Furthermore, we deprecate the support for our old crypttab syntax (with a warning at boot), but retain the functionality for compatibility (in the same way we still have support for the old network syntax, this is likely to stay around for a while). While the syntax is different, the functionality does not change much. We gain a few minor features and lose the ability to read a decryption key from a removable device (i.e. one that needs to be mounted by the cryptsetup code). People who want to use this feature are advised to stay with the old syntax for now. The reason for making this change is mainly that we want to share the syntax of crypttab with as many distros as possible, in the same way as the syntax of fstab is shared. Furthermore, as systemd becomes more and more popular amongst arch users and devs it is a benefit that we don't need to keep around two syntaxes for the same functionality. Finally, I was never very comfortable with maintaining this code, as I hardly use it and it is rather fragile. With this move we are able to outsource almost all of the cryptsetup handling to systemd and should benefit from their testing and bugfixes. If anyone would like to take this for a spin, I uploaded it to gerolde [2]. When this eventually moves to [core], I'll put a news item highlighting the change to avoid to much worry about the deprecation warning. Cheers, Tom [0]: <http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-projects/2012-July/003067.html> [1]: <http://0pointer.de/public/systemd-man/crypttab.html> [2]: <http://dev.archlinux.org/~tomegun/initscripts-2012.07.1-1-any.pkg.tar.xz>

[arch-dev-public] KDE Package Guidelines (aka AUR plasmoids mess)
by Andrea Scarpino 15 Jul '12

15 Jul '12

Hi all, I just received a mail where the user ask me to rename a plasmoid package in AUR. He suggests to rename it as kdeplasma-addons-applets-$plasmoidname, but this is obviously wrong as kdeplasma-addons is the name of the *official* KDE package. If we would rename all our packages in that way, will be really difficult, for both users and maintainer, to understand if we are talking about an official kde plasmoid or not. So, I thought about two naming conventions: * kdeplasma-applets-$plasmoidname * plasma-applets-$plasmoidname Sincerely, I prefer the first one as all kde packages start with the kde prefix. I also wrote a simple KDE package guidelines page[1] taking this opportunity. Any suggestion is much appreciated. The absence of this naming convention created many duplicates on AUR, so let's start the AUR plasmoid cleanup! Thanks! [1] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/KDE_Package_Guidelines -- Andrea

[arch-dev-public] ISO test builds are back
by Thomas Bächler 14 Jul '12

14 Jul '12

I took the time to fix up the ISO build process. ISOs should now build again nightly. I removed AIF and added Dave's arch-install-scripts. These are incomplete and undocumented, so any installation you do with those images right now is done manually. Everyone who still wants to use the images can get them from the releng server [1] or boot them via netboot [2]. [1] https://releng.archlinux.org/isos/ [2] https://releng.archlinux.org/pxeboot/

[arch-dev-public] heads up: /lib removal
by Dave Reisner 14 Jul '12

14 Jul '12

Hey all, Allan pushed glib 2.16-2 into [testing] which removes /lib as a directory, replacing it with a symlink. A bit of advice... - In the simplest case, the upgrade can be done as simply as: pacman -Syu --ignore glibc && pacman -S glibc - Since nothing is ever simple, if the above still fails on installation of glibc (with a somewhat cryptic "/lib exists" error), you'll need to figure out what's still in /lib that doesn't belong to glibc. Generally this will end up being modules/. pacman -Qo /lib/* will pinpoint what needs fixing/removing. Deal with anything that isn't owned explicitly by glibc and complete the installation. It shouldn't need to be said, but I'll mention it anyways: Do. Not. Use. (the) --force. Obi-wan approves of this. d
