[arch-dev-public] boost rebuild
by Pierre Schmitz 14 Jul '09

14 Jul '09

Hi devs, I did not start it but it was put into testing so we have to deal with it. I have created a todo list: https://dev.archlinux.org/todo/12/ Note: It might be incomplete and I have not checked if a rebuild is needed or already done due to the libjpeg/readline rebuild. -- Pierre Schmitz, http://users.archlinux.de/~pierre

[arch-dev-public] Fixing Perl 5.10.0
by Firmicus 14 Jul '09

14 Jul '09

I've sent the following message to Kevin a week ago, but since he has not responded, I thought it was best to raise the issue on this list. --- Perl 5.10.0 suffers from a few bugs, which have been fixed in Strawberry Perl (for Windows) and Debian. I would really like to apply the latest Debian patch for Perl 5.10.0 (description at http://patch-tracking.debian.net/package/perl/5.10.0-23 and patch at http://patch-tracking.debian.net/patch/nondebian/dl/perl/5.10.0-23) I know our our policy is to be as vanilla as possible, but take it as the exception that confirms the rule (and a consequence of the fact that perl releases occur at an extremely slow pace). My PKGBUILD and the debian patch with my modifications to get rid of Debian-specific stuff are here: http://archlinux.org/~francois/perl_pkgbuild+patch.tar.gz It compiles well here and "make test" passes all the tests. I have used it without problem for two weeks now. If you agree, I can upload the packages for both arches to testing this evening. NB: the Debian patch takes care of FS#13901 BTW, any opinion on FS#10971 and FS#13808 ? Best, F

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] sudo-1.7.2-1
by Allan McRae 14 Jul '09

14 Jul '09

sudo 1.7.2-1 - upstream update - removed patch included upstream signoff both arches Upstream changelog: Major changes between sudo 1.7.1 and 1.7.2: * A new #includedir directive is available in sudoers. This can be used to implement an /etc/sudo.d directory. Files in an includedir are not edited by visudo unless they contain a syntax error. * The -g option did not work properly when only setting the group (and not the user). Also, in -l mode the wrong user was displayed for sudoers entries where only the group was allowed to be set. * Fixed a problem with the alias checking in visudo which could prevent visudo from exiting. * Sudo will now correctly parse the shell-style /etc/environment file format used by pam_env on Linux. * When doing password and group database lookups, sudo will only cache an entry by name or by id, depending on how the entry was looked up. Previously, sudo would cache by both name and id from a single lookup, but this breaks sites that have multiple password or group database names that map to the same uid or gid. * User and group names in sudoers may now be enclosed in double quotes to avoid having to escape special characters. * BSM audit fixes when changing to a non-root uid. * Experimental non-Unix group support. Currently only works with Quest Authorization Services and allows Active Directory groups fixes for Minix-3. * For Netscape/Mozilla-derived LDAP SDKs the certificate and key paths may be specified as a directory or a file. However, version 5.0 of the SDK only appears to support using a directory (despite documentation to the contrary). If SSL client initialization fails and the certificate or key paths look like they could be default file name, strip off the last path element and try again. * A setenv() compatibility fix for Linux systems, where a NULL value is treated the same as an empty string and the variable name is checked against the NULL pointer.

[arch-dev-public] Moving libjpeg (and boost)
by Allan McRae 14 Jul '09

14 Jul '09

Hi all, I think it is about time to move the libjpeg rebuilds. This requires moving boost too as there is an overlap. Does anybody know of any blockers here? Issues I know about: 1) konquerer - issues with jpeg scaling 2) openjdk6 - issues opening jpegs Both are not being considered blockers (with konq the web just looks funny and very few java programs use jpeg images and there is jre as a backup). If I don't get a reason not to, I will do the move in 24 hours. Allan

[arch-dev-public] Qt/KDE and gstreamer (second try)
by Pierre Schmitz 10 Jul '09

10 Jul '09

Hi all, about half a year ago I tried to use Qt with its gstreamer backend. Some of the problems I had are now fixed and I am able to play all my files without problems. There is now Qt with gstreamer support and its own phonon in kde-unstable. This means video/audio tags might work in webkit now. So this is just a test if switching from xine to gstreamer as default backend is a good idea. The downside of gstreamer are that you need to install all of its plugin to play any random file. And at least the "good" plugins depend on gnome libs (libsoupo, gconf, gtk etc.) Of course its still easy to use any other backend (mplayer, xine etc.) I have put a xine-backend into AUR: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=28038 Webkit only works with gstreamer backend though. (and the prerelease of kaffeine needs the xine backend) Any ideas opinions about this? Maybe we can split qt and provide a separate gstreamer package; this way you can remove gstreamer if you really don't like it. :-) Qt depends on the base plugins of gstreamer; so you can play ogg files; systemsounds should work. If a file really does not play try to install the whole plugin group. -- Pierre Schmitz, http://users.archlinux.de/~pierre

Hi all, I will be inactive starting from tonight to 26th July. At 9pm (GMT+1) I will start my inter-rail[1] with 2 friends; we will visit London, Amsterdam, Berlin and Prague. So this means I will not able to use my laptop and maybe I will not check my mails too. I hope to improve my English with this experience. Kde 4.3 should be released at the end of the month, so I hope to be here for that. Everyone can update my packages and please solve critical bugs related to my packages, if there will be. Thanks in advance. Have a good day. Best regards [1] http://www.interrailnet.com/ -- Andrea `bash` Scarpino Arch Linux Developer

The pkgrel for netpbm is misused. It'll need to be fixed. If someone as a better/verified patch, post it here. I'll take care of the rebuild and pkgrel fixing. BTW, I just pushed rebuilds for celestia and kismet (x86_64 only). I'll do them for i686 tomorrow unless someone does it before.

[arch-dev-public] remove pear from php package?
by Pierre Schmitz 06 Jul '09

06 Jul '09

Hi all, I just wondered if we should just remove pear from our php package. Pear is a package manager for php and as such bypasses pacman. Using pear is not a great idea imho; you might have conflicts on php updates and files that are not tracked by pacman. (using -f might break things here) People who still want to use pear instead of pacman could provide a PKGBUILD in AUR for this. What do you think? And btw: pear itself does not seem of "high quality"; did anyone try it with E_ALL|E_STRICT etc.? -- Pierre Schmitz, http://users.archlinux.de/~pierre

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] + help needed readline rebuilds
by Aaron Griffin 01 Jul '09

01 Jul '09

So I finally pushed the core readline/bash packages to testing. The reason it took so long was a) a mkinitcpio issue which was fixed a few weeks in, and b) the fact that I couldn't keep up with the extra packages in my limited freetime. So, I've just built the core packages, and put them in testing for a signoff. These packages are: bash readline device-mapper heimdal inetutils lvm2 sqlite3 There are LOTS of packages in extra and community that need rebuilds. The original output from Allan's script is as follows: abiword-plugins abook afterstep amule bc cdcd clisp ecasound evms fluidsynth freeciv fvwm fvwm-devel genius gftp gnokii gnuchess gnupg gnupg2 gnuplot gnutls gphoto2 guile gutenprint hugs98 jack-audio-connection-kit kdeedu koffice lftp libgda libqalculate librep libxml2 lua maxima mono-debugger mysql-clients ntp ocfs2-tools octave pal parted php pilot-link postgresql postgresql-libs python python24 r ruby smbclient socat swi-prolog texlive-bin tftp-hpa twinkle uml_utilities unixodbc vice wvstreams xine-ui I'm going to slowly work through these throughout the day, but if someone can help, that'd be great.

Hi guys, Last week we had the first brazilian Encounter of Arch Linux Users, during the tenth edition of the International Forum of Free Software (FISL), in Porto Alegre, Brazil. The event was huge (more than 8000 people), great and we got new users (a lot of them). We had a stand where we gave free CDs (i686 and x86_64), did some installs and gave some lessons. Also, we made four lectures in the event: Introduction to Arch Linux (by Rodrigo Flores) >From * to Arch (by Kessia Pinheiro) Arch Linux Brazil: past, present and future (by Douglas Andrade) How to create packages for Arch Linux (by me) Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva (the president of Brazil) went to the event and met some distributions. I hope that our president use Arch. :P There are some pictures from the event here (just the first two days. i will upload the other two soon): http://hugodoria.org/fotos/?Qwd=./fisl10 Some pictures from our stand and the arch linux brasil people, that were very important for our encounter and made everything happen: http://hugodoria.org/fotos/?Qwd=./fisl10/archlinux-br Douglas Soares (dsa) was there too: http://hugodoria.org/fotos/?Qwd=./fisl10/archlinux-br&Qif=IMG_0450.JPG&Qiv=… Pictures taken by others: http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/fisl/ I want to bring some of you guys for the next FISL, that will happen in 2010.

[arch-dev-public] The [community-testing] repository
by Thomas Bächler 30 Jun '09

30 Jun '09

I think this has been requested and discussed a few times and I talked to several people about it, so I want to outline my ideas here: When moving the community db scripts to the new svn-based scripts, a community-testing repository should be created. With the new scripts, handling this is incredibly easy. And here is why: Rebuild sprees. We have the problem now with readline: libreadline.so.6 is in testing and community packages are built against .so.5. [testing] users cannot use everything from [community] and once we move everything to core and extra, it takes too much time for [community] to catch up. The [community-testing] repository will solve that: While the dev team does rebuilds in [testing], the TUs do the same in [community-testing]. When everything is done, a developer can move the core/extra and community packages simultaneously. This is not only useful for SONAME bumps, but also for kernel updates (there's a few kernel modules in [community]). I suggest this should be set up as soon as [community] is moved to SVN-based scripts, as the upcoming libjpeg rebuilds will break too many packages and we need to rebuild not only the [extra] but also the [community] packages in time. That's how I see it, opinions?

Ok, rsyncd is running on the aur server, and I'm fiddling with rsyncing to gerolde. Currently I'm running: $ rsync -rptlv --safe-links --delete-after --delay-updates \ aur.archlinux.org::community /srv/ftp/community on gerolde. I snagged this out of a wiki article as I'm not too familiar with rsync options. Any suggestions for the options before I turn this into a cron job? Note: lots of "cannot change permissions" errors (probably due to g+s) - any way to skip that part?

[arch-dev-public] PHP 5.3.0
by Pierre Schmitz 30 Jun '09

30 Jun '09

So, a new major version of PHP was released. (in fact on there servers for some days now). Before people send me mails and flag the hell out here are some notes: * I wont release anything before the readline and libjpeg rebuilds are done and in core/extra * I had to remove the character set directive from my.cnf to make mysqlnd work with utf8 * I had to add some ugly workarounds to some of my scripts to make them work * The API has changed; so we need new versions of the external modules. The latest beta of APC seems to work fine; a new suhosin extension has not been released yet. But I'd bet that will happen quite soon. * I guess a lot of scripts will need updates. Long story short: I have to wait for the rebuild move and new release of the external extensions to put it into testing. And it should stay there for some time. -- Pierre Schmitz, http://users.archlinux.de/~pierre

Hi all, I just created the TODO list for the libjpeg rebuilds (130 packages!). I will do an initial set of rebuilds that should hopefully allow everybody to boot into their desktop environment and then put out all call for help doing the rest of the builds. Note that I will not be pushing anything until the readline builds are moved which I assume will be soon after the community server is up. Allan

[arch-dev-public] [idea] global link database for all packages
by Pierre Schmitz 29 Jun '09

29 Jun '09

Hi, I just got an idea which might be worth to think about. Namcap is quite useful but due to its limitation of only seeing a certain pkg file at a time it cannot answer all questions. The idea is to create a database (similar to the file list we already create) which includes lists of files and to which they are linked. Dumping this togehter with our pkgdb and file lists in a hughe SQL db we can answer questions such as: * What are the hidden deps of a package? * Which pacakge need a rebuld if I bump a certain package? * Find missing deps * What happens if I remove a dep from a package? ** e.g. if I remove openssl as dep for Qt I need to review every package that directly or indirectly depends on Qt and check if it needs openssl (which was hidden by the Qt dep before) * Maybe check for so name conflicts or packages providing the same one? (libgl, java) * check a package deps without the need to actually install its deps. (like namcap) I made a quick and dirty script based on the createFileLists script: http://users.archlinux.de/~pierre/tmp/createLinkLists.txt It should work fine and even incremental but its runtime is awful. So, if you think that might be a good idea there is a lot of room for improvements. I don't know if its possible with bash but we don't really need to extract every file: * check if a file is an elf file * extract the header * move to next file -- Pierre Schmitz, http://users.archlinux.de/~pierre

Not sure if there will be some Arch Linux users though, but 4 days outside a city and without the internet (ouch!) sounds interesting. :-) -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич)

[arch-dev-public] Preparing for libjpeg update
by Allan McRae 23 Jun '09

23 Jun '09

Hi all, This weekend should see the release of the first update for libjpeg in several years. Everything remains API compatible so this should be just a simple rebuild... of 130 packages from [extra]. That is too many packages for any sane person and double the number of the readline rebuilds so I will need some help. I will deal with the packages that are needed as dependencies for many other packages first. The full list is given below and I will create a TODO list closer to the time so that we can keep track of what has been done. Given this is going to be a rather large rebuild, I will hold off until the readline rebuilds are moved from [testing]. I guess these can probably move before the weekend anyway.

The new module-init-tools 3.8 package changes the location of the configuration file: /etc/modprobe.conf is no longer read, instead /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf is used. Files without a .conf suffix in /etc/modprobe.d are ignored now. Please adjust your local configuration files after the update. -------------------- I'd like to move module-init-tools, filesystem, udev, mkinitcpio and klibc* and v86d ASAP.

[arch-dev-public] What is man-db and why is it so crappy?
by Thomas Bächler 18 Jun '09

man-db runs a cronjob daily. Every time this cronjob runs, it causes very high system load for about 5 minutes (this is longer than updatedb). Does it really have to run daily? If so, is it really normal that it causes such high load? I would hope not. Can this please be fixed, it is very annoying.

[arch-dev-public] Get notified on website updates
by Pierre Schmitz 16 Jun '09

16 Jun '09

Hello, maybe you are familar with the following problem: You want to get notified when there is a new upstream release. The problem is that not all projects offer rss feeds or an announce mailing list. And if they do they are sometimes too verbose or don't cover the updates you like. So needed something to watch a certain website and tell me if anything changed. There are a lot of webservices, firefox plugins etc..; but they are all too complicated and just don't offer what I need. So I though it would be quite easy to write something myself using cron and lynx. So I after a few minutes I had a simple Bash script whih just does the job. It loops through an url list and prints the diff to the previous run. Running this by cron I get an email including the diff everytime one of the observed websites are updated. Maybe someone else has some use for it, too. And perhaps I'll even create a git repo for it; though I don't think I should add much more "features". ;-) http://users.archlinux.de/~pierre/packages/src/w3watch/ -- Pierre Schmitz Clemens-August-Straße 76 53115 Bonn Telefon 0228 9716608 Mobil 0160 95269831 Jabber pierre(a)jabber.archlinux.de WWW http://www.archlinux.de

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] mkinitcpio 0.5.25, cryptsetup 1.0.6-3
by Thomas Bächler 16 Jun '09

16 Jun '09

Going into testing in a few minutes: mkinitcpio changes: - Finally fix a bug where required HID modules were missing - Add a new COMPRESSION option that accepts gzip, lzma and bzip2 parameters (gzip is the default, the others are only supported on 2.6.30 and later) - Add a new poll_device function that waits for a block device to appear. This is used in the init function and the resume hook, with rootdelay as a maximum timeout (default to 10 seconds) - Remove the unmaintained and untested modload hook - Remove the runtime filesystems hook - Rework the code that checks whether a root device has been found, don't reboot when exiting the emergency shell, but try to continue. - Due to the new poll_device behaviour, the usb and fw runtime hooks are no longer required, remove them - Parse arguments to init properly, using the "$@" parameter from the commandline the kernel generated - also needs the new fix in the latest kinit from testing (this allows us to use init=/bin/sh again) - Adjust for the latest filesystem/module-init-tools changes - Fix an autodetection bug that would sometimes omit some filesystems cryptsetup changes: - Use poll_device when waiting for the encrypted device and the (optional) key container device (default to rootdelay), added conflicts=(mkinitcpio<0.5.25) - Add a warning if the deprecated root= syntax is used on the commandline

Hi ML, only let you know the repository kde-unstable is again active. I packaged with Pierre KDE 4.3 beta2; at the moment packages are more big then previous because we enabled the DEBUG build option, but we will disable it soon: there are few vantages and many disadvantages to keep it. Pierre talked with Allan who said that pacman 3.3 will be out soon, so we are working to split KDE packages. Will be nice to have splitted packages in time to the new KDE release.

[arch-dev-public] Three new packages for [extra]-repository
by Daniel Isenmann 12 Jun '09

12 Jun '09

Hi, I would like to add three new packages into the [extra]-repository. They are more or less necessary because they are new (opt-)dependencies for wicd. wicd has an additional new user interface, it's curses-based and a great alternative to the pyGTK interface for non-X11 usage. But to use it you will need "python-urwid", it's in [comunity]. That's the first package I want to add and the other two packages are necessary for the new ioctl experimental, optional backend (allegedly less CPU intensive). The packages are "python-wpactrl" and "python-iwscan". They aren't packaged or in AUR, I have created the necessary PKGBUILD and packages. Summary: - python-urwid for the curses interface - python-wpactrl and python-iwscan for the new ioctl experimental backend (http://projects.otaku42.de/wiki/PythonWpaCtrl and http://projects.otaku42.de/browser/python-iwscan) Corresponding bug entry: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/14992 Any objections? Cheers, Daniel

[arch-dev-public] Proper commit messages
by Jan de Groot 12 Jun '09

12 Jun '09

Recently we had some package updates in the repositories where just the pkgrel was upped and nothing else was changed, and committed with "upgpkg: subversion 1.6.2-3" or "upgpkg: mplayer 29318-1.1". Both examples are worthless commit messages, as there's nothing in there that describes why it was bumped. Could we please make sane commit messages in the near future, so we have an idea why a package has been bumped? Thanks.

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] xz-utils and libarchive-2.7.0-2
by Pierre Schmitz 10 Jun '09

10 Jun '09

Hi devs, we had a long discussion about xz/lzma support some time ago. So I finally added xz-utils to testing and rebuild libarchive to make use of it. If everything is OK we can move both to core and remove lzma-utils from extra. I don't know if anything else has to be recompiled to add support for xz/lzma. PS: you can build xz archive with bsdtar (part of libarchive). PPS: the git version of pacman/makepkg (future 3.3) should support the xz format (not tested) -- Pierre Schmitz Clemens-August-Straße 76 53115 Bonn Telefon 0228 9716608 Mobil 0160 95269831 Jabber pierre(a)jabber.archlinux.de WWW http://www.archlinux.de

[arch-dev-public] archlinux-torrent-utils
by Pierre Schmitz 09 Jun '09

09 Jun '09

Hi all, I had created some usefull tools to create torrent files of our isos based on Thomas' idea of using ktorrent. It includes mktorrent to create torrent including webseeds, lstorrent to get some nformation about a torrent file (e.g. hash) and a script called mktorrent-archlinux which makes it easy to creat iso.torrent files including webseeds. There is also a PKGBUILD to create a package from git. The only problem is that both programs segfault on exit. I am a real noob on C++; so I am in need of a little help here. Everything works fine and my very limited skills show me that the problem occours after the main() method was left. Last but not least the URL: http://git.archlinux.de/archlinux-torrent-utils/ Pierre -- Pierre Schmitz Clemens-August-Straße 76 53115 Bonn Telefon 0228 9716608 Mobil 0160 95269831 Jabber pierre(a)jabber.archlinux.de WWW http://www.archlinux.de

[arch-dev-public] about splitting KDE (again)
by Pierre Schmitz 09 Jun '09

09 Jun '09

Hey guys, as Andrea already told we will make kde-unstable a playground for how we could implement splitted KDE packages. I have started a draft page about that in out wiki http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:Splitting_KDE. I also added a short summary about the motivation. Right now I have commited an initial set of PKGBUILDs to our repo. They are created with the help of a script which reads the cmake file of a KDE source package. I also added missing deps using namcap and some upstream documentation. It is still far from ready but a good start. Once we have a working set of PKGBUILDs some scripts and namcap rules should maintaing them quite easy. KDE 4.3 will be released by end of july. Hopefully we'll have pacman 3.3 before that date. And until then we have some time to think about support for splitted packages in our dev tools. (maybe its best to start a separate thread for this) I hope there will be no flamewar or anything else less productive started by users. So I have added a pro/contra and a FaQ section to the wiki. Feel free to tell us your oppinion or complains and I am sure we'll find a nice solution.

[arch-dev-public] Flyspray update
by Roman Kyrylych 08 Jun '09

08 Jun '09

Hi all! The need for bugtracker update is really high. There are many bugs that not only are annnoying, but also decrease the productivity of people who work with it (for example the search in comments is broken). Version 0.9.9.6 was released on 1st day of May (though probably there are some additional fixes in svn), while we're still at 0.9.9.5 (and missed 0.9.9.5.1 already). Can anyone with admin permissions please do an upgrade? The only Arch-specific patch is 'Operating system' -> 'Architecture' rename. -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич)

Hi all, I have built ruby-1.9.1 for [testing]. As far as I can tell, the only thing that is broken is gvim. A dev who uses that will want to look into fixing it...

[arch-dev-public] problem with mysql rc script
by Pierre Schmitz 05 Jun '09

05 Jun '09

Hi, maybe someone has an idea how to solve http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/12798. The proposed patch was added to mysql, reverted, re-added etc.. The current version is broken again. The problem is that the mysql rc script just checks for any process called mysqld. But akonadi starts its own instance of mysql as user. So if you use that rc script to start/stop mysql it woll kill akonadi's mysql and not just its own. I have no idea why using the pid saved by mysql did not work for some people. So, any ideas are welcome. Pierre -- Pierre Schmitz Clemens-August-Straße 76 53115 Bonn Telefon 0228 9716608 Mobil 0160 95269831 Jabber pierre(a)jabber.archlinux.de WWW http://www.archlinux.de

by Eric Bélanger 01 Jun '09

Hi, device-mapper-1.02.32-1 is in testing. Changes: - minor upstream update. Upstream ChangeLog below. - To get the static library (not sure if it's needed) to build I had to add a configure option. This also built a dmsetup.static binary which I decided to keep in the package along with the dynamic one. I guess that I wouldn't hurt in case of system rescue. The package in core doesn't have the static version of the dmsetup binary. Please comment, test and signoff. Eric Upstream ChangeLog : Version 1.02.32 - 21st May 2009 =============================== Only generate libdevmapper.a when configured to link statically. Export dm_tree_node_size_changed() from libdevmapper. Propagate the table size_changed property up the dm device tree. Detect failure to free memory pools when releasing the library. Fix segfault when getopt processes dmsetup -U, -G and -M options.

[arch-dev-public] subversion rebuild needed for i686

Re: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/14832 Could someone please rebuild subversion for i686?

I am sending a copy of this to the dev list, as few people read the events list: I have registered the Arch Linux project at the FrOSCon website. So far, these people have confirmed their participation: Andy Daniel (ise) Jens (byte) Pierre Thomas (me) With a big maybe: Christoph (delmonico) An even bigger maybe: Jan (JGC) All of you should register at https://callforprojects.froscon.org/ and join the Arch Linux project there. Also, others might consider joining us (Ronald is from the Netherlands and Dieter is from Belgium, so it's not too far for them (any of you guys interested?), of course anyone from our dev or TU team can join us, please write to the arch-events list or reply to this email). We should get a booth (with 2 tables this time, yay) and a room for both days if they accept our application. I think we should at least have posters and CDs this year, presentation machines and maybe more cool stuff, ideas are welcome.

[arch-dev-public] openjdk6 - 1.5 update
by Andreas Radke 30 May '09

30 May '09

the new version is in testing for x86_64, i686 will follow soon. please test it. look for the new features and especially if all fonts and characters are ok for you. I still expect some problems with Asian fonts. You can to some character tests here: http://www.pccl.demon.co.uk/java/unicode.html -Andy We are proud to announce the release of IcedTea6 1.5. The IcedTea6 project provides a harness to build the source code from OpenJDK6 (http://openjdk.java.net) using Free Software build tools. What's New? ----------------- - Static trace support through systemtap. When given the configure option --enable-systemtap IcedTea will build hotspot with the dtrace static markers enabled and install an hotspot tapset that can be used to dynamically trace execution of java applications at runtime. See the tapset/hotspot.stp file for documentation of the various trace points and arguments available. - Allow building of other virtual machines besides the default VM. Additional virtual machines on architectures where hotspot is available are cacao and zero (or shark), and cacao, where zero (or shark) is available. It's not possible to build cacao as the default VM, and zero as additional VM. - Update to latest HotSpot minor build (hs14b10-->hs14b15) from the new HotSpot Express repository. - Updated to OpenJDK b16 build. - VisualVM updated to 1.1.1. - Updated to support CACAO 0.99.4. - Several web browser plugin and javaws support fixes: - Fixed security handling to prevent access denials when there is a site specific exception in the policy file - Allow extentions (chrome) to run Java code with full permissions - Added non-trusted SSL support to WebStart (javaws) - Added proxy support - Other improvements that were breaking specific sites (tag parser fix, nested jar support, etc.) - Added JVM Console (used by http://chrispederick.com/work/web-developer/) - Removed gcjwebplugin support. - LCMS security fixes. - Many build improvements. - Many gervill, java2d, nio2, pulse java, zero/shark, jtreg fixes. - Experimental out-of-the-box cross-compilation support (not yet finished) - Other bug fixes.

Doing so would introduce eventlog (108K), glib2 (10336K), pcre (2164K), gcc-libs (9068K), libcap (185K). Eventlog, gcc-libs and libcap aren't a problem at all, they're small and in case of gcc-libs already required on the system. For glib2, it's "huge", but given the fact that many people have this thing installed for other purposes anyways, I don't see the problem here. People with minimal systems could get rid of /usr/include anyways, which is where the most space is taken in case of glib2.

Hi all, k3b-i18n in [extra] is incompatible with k3b-1.65, so it should be removed until a k3b1.65 compatible version will be released (if there will be). btw, I do not think is a good idea to keep an alpha version of k3b in [extra], IMHO we should downgrade the version in extra and move this one on [testing].

[arch-dev-public] License rebuild: last step
by Eric Bélanger 26 May '09

26 May '09

Hi The license rebuild for core/extra is almost done. Only a few problematic packages remains. I'll post the list here with potential solutions. Read along and comment/discuss as apropriate. ccaudio: - doesn't build. no package depends on it. Remove? codecs: emovix-codecs: - There is no license information in the tarball or on mplayer's site. Other distros use the following licenses: mandriva & PCLinuxOS : Commercial. I haven't looked what this license is about. NetBSD: === There is no license to copy granted for these codecs, and the copyright ownership is unclear. === Gentoo use their 'as-is' license : === This is a generic place holder for a class of licenses that boil down to do no guarantees and all you get is what you have. The language is usually similar to: Permission to use, copy, modify, and distribute this software and its documentation for any purpose and without fee is hereby granted, provided that the above copyright notice appears in all copies and that both the copyright notice and this permission notice appear in supporting documentation, and that the same name not be used in advertising or publicity pertaining to distribution of the software without specific, written prior permission. We make no representations about the suitability this software for any purpose. It is provided "as is" without express or implied warranty. You will need to check the license that came with the software for the exact specifics. Generally you are free to do most anything you want with "as is" software but you should not take this license as legal advice. Note: Most all license have an "as is" clause. For our purposes this does not make all software in this category. This category is for software with very little restrictions. The information in this license about licenses is presented "as is". :-P === If we assume that we are allowed to package these codecs, my favorite license is the NetBSD one. Only avifile in community has a specific depends on codecs. If it's not a true dependency like in mplayer (not tested), we could just remove them from the repo. Any comments? dgen-sdl: FS#12564 and license issue. x86_64 package will probably be removed because of this. I guess I could go ahead and add the license to the i686 package. docbook-xml: Flagged out-of-date. As the PKGBUILD is non-trivial, I'll let Jan handle this one. ;) guile-gtk: - No package depends on it, 3% usage. Will need to add a gtkglarea2 in the repo to update it. Move to unsupported? hwd: lshwd: - I mentionned moving them to usupported earlier. Several devs agreed. Any objections? ksymoops: - Seems that it doesn't work with kernel 2.6 (http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Kernel/2008-11/msg03316.html) I'm not famiiliar with this stuff though. Remove? mkpxelinux: - Tobias P. custom script. License is unspecified. Tobias: can you give it a license? randline: Source has disappeared. Remove? termcap-compat: - need to rebuild ssh2 (community) without it: FS#14570. Then remove? unionfs-utils: - Stock kernel no longer has unionfs. Move to unsupported? user-mode-linux: - Orphaned, out-of-date, 3% usage. Move to unsupported? xmame-sdl: - FS#11927 - Dead project. We have sdlmame in community which is actively maintained upstream. Remove? xsmbrowser: - Doesn't work: 'Application initialization failed: version conflict for package "Tcl": have 8.5.6, need exactly 8.5'. Move to unsupported? License rebuilds currently in testing. I'll move them in a few days (even if ipw2100-fw doesn't have the required signoffs): ipw2100-fw rbldnsd ypbind-mt ypserv BTW, a couple of vim plugins didn't had any license information (and also ttmkfdir2 part of xorg-font-utils). For these, I used: "license=('unknown')". I hope everyone is fine with that. Eric

[arch-dev-public] building in (clean) chroots
by Jan de Groot 25 May '09

25 May '09

I still see packages appearing that haven't been built in (clean) chroots. One example is mplayer on x86_64, which has VDPAU support. For this, nvidia drivers are needed, which doesn't belong in a chroot where packages for the repositories are built. Please build in chroots, and if it's not clean, please namcap your packages before uploading. I see too many differences in packages for i686 and x86_64 because of this.

minor upstream fix. also removes RPATH, fixes #14368. please signoff. -Andy Version 3.6.14.1 is a branch of version 3.6.14 with patches applied to fix three bugs. See http://www.sqlite.org/releaselog/3_6_14_1.html fpr details. The changes are minimal and users who are not bothered by any of the three bugs do not need not upgrade. Under normal circumstances, we would have let these three fixes accumulate in the SQLite source tree until the next regular release in June. But an SQLite Consortium member requested expedited resolution of the bugs and so we are making these fixes available in this unscheduled version 3.6.14.1 release. Changes associated with this release include the following: * Fix a bug in group_concat(), ticket #3841 * Fix a performance bug in the pager cache, ticket #3844 * Fix a bug in the sqlite3_backup implementation that can lead to a corrupt backup database. Ticket #3858.

[arch-dev-public] Adding some kind of Captcha to our Wiki
by Pierre Schmitz 23 May '09

23 May '09

Hi all, as discussed here http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=557394 some spam bots seem to like our wiki. I have developed a very simple but effective way to stop such bots. Of course they could easily bypass it but as it is not used by anybody else the bot programmers just don't know about it. The idea is to set a cookie on each form which existence will be checked before each form action. The cookie is set by an "image" which is included by CSS. Until now there seems to be no bot which reads CSS definitions. Those which use text browsers will see a text form in which they need to enter a short hex code in order to submit anything. Anyone else wont even notice that there is a captcha. So, what do you think? Should I activate this plugin? The only thing I need to do is translating some error mesages from German into English.

[arch-dev-public] [PATCH] Start sequences of daemons in background
by James Rayner 23 May '09

23 May '09

This patch allows you to background a whole sequence of daemons, rather than an individual daemon. As a result, you can get a very fast parallel boot. I suppose this could be considered an 'arch like' parallel boot setup. This isn't my idea, I'm sure someone has made a patch like this before however I couldnt find it and it never got merged. The major benefit is that boot doesnt get held up by slow starting dependencies, like hal and network. I can't background network because I have other services that depend on it such as nfs, ssh, iptables, ntpdate and cups. Similarly, I cant background hal, as gdm depends on it. For example... DAEMONS=(@net-auto,ntpdate,cups @acpi,hal,gdm syslog-ng cpufreq bluetooth crond) Comma delimited groups are started in background and run in sequence. Bootchart testing I saw a consistent improvement of at least 5s, from 31s to 26s. One boot somehow acheived 23s, and that was with full auto wireless enabled. I used a fixed modules list to avoid any inconsistency in udev time, so udev was always 1.9-2.1 seconds. I also used a wired connection for network as wireless connection time varied too much. There is a more noticable improvement with wireless, as it takes longer and can be backgrounded with the patch.

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] dbus 1.2.14 (non-permissive)
by Jan de Groot 22 May '09

I would like to request signoff for dbus 1.2.14. This is the non-permissive branch which could break applications that don't install correct dbus policy files. I haven't had bugreports since this package has gone into testing, so I would like to start a signoff thread for both architectures.

Funny version numbering, they updated from 5.4.A.1 to 8.24.2.12. Although the version number says 8.24.2.12, version 5.4.A.1 will still be used for now! This package contains two ucode files: - API version 1 ucode from 5.4.A.1 - API version 2 ucode from 8.24.2.12 A patch that supports API version 2 just went upstream to linux-wireless, so in future kernels, version 2 will be used. Please sign off (I didn't test anything, don't have that hardware).

In other words, if you run it and there are N packages for arch=any, but none for arch=i686, for instance. The script attempts to copy files for each arch, but if none is there, cp returns an error and db-update will die. I send you a patch to fix that by checking first for the existence of at least one package before attempting to copy it to the ftp tree. I'm also sending you three additional patches: a second one to create the $WORKDIR before cd'ing to it, a third one that fixes an obvious bug in the creation of symlinks, and a fourth one to fix the incorrect redirection of error messages for get_svnpath in db-functions.
