[arch-dev-public] [FYI] systemd 205, cgroup attribute changes
by Dave Reisner 04 Jul '13

04 Jul '13

Hey all, systemd 205 was just tagged, and brings some major, promised, cgroup changes [1]. I'll be pushing this into [testing] tonight. I do NOT expect that this release will ever move to [core], but maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised. The NEWS file [2] is fairly large and warrants a read, particularly about the new machine API. Cheers, Dave [1] http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2013-June/011521.html [2] http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/tree/NEWS

[arch-dev-public] Starting work on TeXLive 2013
by Rémy Oudompheng 03 Jul '13

03 Jul '13

Hello, I have started work on TeXLive 2013 packaging. I will probably use staging temporarily if needed when releasing to [testing]. Upstream has merged the data files traditionnally packaged in texlive-bin with the ordinary data packages, so I plan to move the "config" files (/etc/texmf) to texlive-core. Texlive-bin will contain almost only executables and a few manpages. Rémy.

[arch-dev-public] Texlive 2013 packages releases to [testing]
by Rémy Oudompheng 03 Jul '13

03 Jul '13

Hello, I have pushed TeXLive 2013 packages to [testing]. The main difference with the 2012 packages is that /etc/texmf files are now in texlive-core rather than texlive-bin. The texlive-bin package now contains almost only binaries, and texlive-core contains all basic data files including the ones in /etc/texmf. Feel free to report any issues you encounter. If you have an existing installation, the upgrade might install new versions of /etc/texmf/ files as *.pacnew. It is unlikely that things work properly if you don't handle the pacnew files unless you realy know what you are doing. If pacnew files appear (notably texmf.cnf and fmtutil.cnf), and the installation reports a failure in regenerating formats (which you will know by not being able to use an engine), you will need to handle the pacnew files, and run "fmtutil-sys --all" by hand. If this situation reaches a high level of absurdity, and if possible considering pacman's behaviour, new packages not behaving like this might be built later before going to [extra]. Regards, Rémy.

[arch-dev-public] trouble building packages with .install files
by Jelle van der Waa 02 Jul '13

02 Jul '13

I'm having trouble building certain packages with .install files, for example aur/vim-youcompleteme-git. If I build it with extra-x86_64-build, I just get: ==> ERROR: install file (vimdoc.install) does not exist. I have the same issue on pkgbuild.com, for example the libreoffice PKGBUILD. I'm not sure what's causing this issue, but barthalion can also reproduce the problem. It seems startdir_host is empty. ─marlowe:pts/1 /var/lib/archbuild/extra-x86_64/barthalion └─% ls -lh startdir total 12K -rw------- 1 nobody root 902 Jul 1 11:53 PKGBUILD lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 28 Jul 1 11:53 YouCompleteMe -> /startdir_host/YouCompleteMe lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Jul 1 11:53 vimdoc.install -> /startdir_host/vimdoc.install ┌─marlowe:pts/1 /var/lib/archbuild/extra-x86_64/barthalion └─% ls -lh startdir_host total 0 -- Jelle van der Waa

I agree and I think we should choose to have all our shell paths in the same directory in /etc/shells. Have 2 paths will be painful with chsh as I describe in the bugreport. I can create a TODO to updates required packages when the consensus is reached. I remember Dave, arguing in favor of keeping sheebang to /bin/bash to ensure portability.
