[arch-dev-public] syslinux update to 5.01
by Tobias Powalowski 05 Mar '13

05 Mar '13

Hi, ok syslinux 5.0 series should come to testing again. The problem with this release: You need to copy all .c32 modules to your /boot/syslinux path. - Those who used our shipped install script, will end up in a none menu based syslinux shell. - Manual installers need to do the same or it will stay on the old version. I think manual installers should know how to update a major version from syslinux. Do we need a install message? And yes what should it mention? Thanks for your input on this task. greetings tpowa -- Tobias Powalowski Archlinux Developer & Package Maintainer (tpowa) http://www.archlinux.org tpowa(a)archlinux.org

[arch-dev-public] [RFC] Migration to MariaDB
by Bartłomiej Piotrowski 04 Mar '13

04 Mar '13

Hello guys, Because Oracle is Oracle is Oracle(…) I would like to propose migration to MariaDB. Jokes aside, the biggest problem with MySQL situation is that it becomes more and more closed source. Oracle stopped publishing regression tests[1], informative security advisories, they even hide bug reports and not include them in release notes[2]. Very often their bzr repository is falling behind new releases[3]. On the other hand, MariaDB is truly open source (it doesn't have enterprise-only options) and has open development model. Security advisories are published first on the mailing list for packagers with a patch for current release and information when the bug will be fixed and when the information about security hole can be published (Another advantage for ricers -- some benchmarks show that MariaDB is faster.) From packaging side, MariaDB is (still) drop-in replacement for MySQL. Unfortunately they are not fully compatible[4] and I don't want to lie that I tested every package depending on MySQL before I pushed Maria to [community], but since April 2012 there has been no bug report about breakage. However I don't want to use replaces=, because clearly it won't work for everyone. Additionally switching now should be less problematic. MySQL 5.6 is already out and it is not as compatible with incoming MariaDB 10 as it was with 5.5 branch. While we keep Maria and MySQL branches in sync, it should be quite safe. To get back to the point… This is how I would see the migration plan: 1. Synchronize MariaDB and MySQL systemd units. 2. Move MariaDB to [extra]. 3. Rebuild packages depending on mysql/libmysqlclient/mysql-clients against its MariaDB counterparts. 4. Announce MySQL deprecation. 5. After month, drop MySQL to AUR. What do you think? Cheers, [1] http://blog.mariadb.org/disappearing-test-cases/ [2] http://ronaldbradford.com/blog/when-is-a-crashing-mysql-bug-not-a-bug-2012-… [3] http://www.mysqlperformanceblog.com/2012/08/16/where-to-get-a-bzr-tree-of-t… [4] https://kb.askmonty.org/en/mariadb-vs-mysql-compatibility -- Bartłomiej Piotrowski http://bpiotrowski.pl/

[arch-dev-public] qt4 replaces qt
by Andrea Scarpino 04 Mar '13

04 Mar '13

Hi all, a new qt4 package has hit [testing] and will replace the current qt package. qt4 doesn't provide 'qt'; you will need to rebuild EVERY package installed from AUR and replace qt with qt4 in the depends array. Also, I suggest to every maintainer in AUR to remove qt from the depends() array when there's qtwebkit or any package that needs qt: if you do that, this will require no rebuild as we updated every package in the official repositories to use qt4. Also, we ship the Qt 5.x series in [testing]. Qt 5.x is more modular than 4.x. This allow us to have these Qt 5.x packages: * qt5-base * qt5-declarative * qt5-graphicaleffects * qt5-imageformats * qt5-jsbackend * qt5-multimedia * qt5-quick1 * qt5-script * qt5-svg * qt5-tools * qt5-translations * qt5-webkit * qt5-xmlpatterns Generally you only need qt5-base. But, if you are a Qt developer or you want a full installation you can install the whole 'qt' group. When you install both qt5-base and qt4, qmake will refers to the 5.x version. To 'force' Qt 4.x, you can use the qmake4 symlink. There's also moc-qt4, uic- qt4 and rcc-qt4. We provide these symlinks as they are used by cmake and by the configure scripts to locate qt4. -- Andrea Arch Linux Developer

[arch-dev-public] [RFC] Add Wayland/Weston
by Sébastien Luttringer 03 Mar '13

03 Mar '13

Hello gentleman, Wayland is now in version 1.0.4[1]. I plan to move it to community to offer a first support of the wayland protocol into Archlinux. This will allow toolkit[2][3] packages to smoothly enable wayland support when maintainers wants and let users try this next-to-systemd-troll[4]. After Wayland I would add the demo compositor Weston to our community repositories. To do this we needs to: - enable wayland support into mesa ; - enable wayland support into cairo. If the both maintainers agreed to add support, we need to find a gentle developper which can move wayland to extra[5]. Cheers, [1] http://wayland.freedesktop.org/releases.html [2] http://wayland.freedesktop.org/qt5.html [3] http://wayland.freedesktop.org/gtk.html [4] I'm already existed by arch-general be closed again [5] Mesa and cairo are in extra and cannot depends of Wayland in community -- Sébastien "Seblu" Luttringer https://www.seblu.net GPG: 0x2072D77A

by Tobias Powalowski 01 Mar '13

01 Mar '13

Hi, I built the kernel, now there are issues with nvidia, lirc and propably other binary modules, Do you want the kernel already in testing or should I place it somewhere else for the maintainers of the modules? greetings tpowa -- Tobias Powalowski Archlinux Developer & Package Maintainer (tpowa) http://www.archlinux.org tpowa(a)archlinux.org

Hi guys, please signoff 3.7.10 series for both arches. package is not in testing, please grab it from here: http://dev.archlinux.org/~tpowa/linux/ This will move to [core] directly, because 3.8.1 is in [testing]. greetings tpowa -- Tobias Powalowski Archlinux Developer & Package Maintainer (tpowa) http://www.archlinux.org tpowa(a)archlinux.org

[arch-dev-public] Mesa 9.1 in testing
by Andreas Radke 27 Feb '13

27 Feb '13

New unified Mesa has hit testing. Upgrade path went smooth here. Please test it. Now the main mesa pkg should provide everything required to build and link packages. The mesa-libgl pkg providing libgl should be not be used in the dependency array when linking to libgl.so - please use "libgl" that will allow users to choose also nvidia-utils or catalyst-utils. There are still packages in extra depending on the old libgl package. We will need to fix them before makepkg will properly allow to build only against new mesa. -Andy

[arch-dev-public] watchdog 5.13 changes
by Thomas Bächler 27 Feb '13

27 Feb '13

The new watchdog 5.13 package removes the rc.d scripts and conf.d files. There is a systemd service file for watchdog included. There is no service file for wd_keepalive, because the functionality of wd_keepalive is provided by systemd - just uncomment RuntimeWatchdogSec=20 in /etc/systemd/system.conf.
