[arch-dev-public] [signoff] ed 1.5-4
by Dave Reisner 02 Nov '11

02 Nov '11

I've dropped a rebuild of ed into testing to provide a sig. PKGBUILD changes: - remove the info page - remove the install scriptlet (which only serviced the info page) - add a check function And the test suite passes! Please signoff both arches. Dave

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] rebuilt of ipw2100-fw, ipw2200-fw and zd1211-firmware
by Pierre Schmitz 02 Nov '11

02 Nov '11

Hi all, I have rebuild these old firmware packages. The only difference is that they are signed now. I don't expect that a lot of you use these hardware so it's probably fine to just check that the package's content is identical to those in core. Greetings, Pierre -- Pierre Schmitz, http://pierre-schmitz.com

[arch-dev-public] Note: deprecated udev rules
by Tom Gundersen 01 Nov '11

01 Nov '11

Hi guys, As you may remember, some keys (BUS, SYSFS) that have been deprecated from udev for some years, were finally removed in the last udev release. For those who still had rules with the deprecated keys this caused more trouble than first anticipated (there should be none in our repos, but there could be leftover pacakges/rules). Essentially, permissions were seemingly randomly assigned to nodes unrelated to the broken rules (you could have rules that used to match on only certain nodes now matching on everything). The situation should be somewhat better in the next udev release, but I believe it can never be fixed completely. To sum up: if you are noticing weird permissions on your nodes, or if a user is asking advice with such a problem, first check that no deprecated keys are being used in any of the udev rules. Cheers, Tom

Hi all, as discussed all new packages have to be signed from now on. This mean that if you use a build server you have to download the package to create the signature. Also see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:Signing_Packages A new version of devtools will follow soon. Greetings, Pierre -- Pierre Schmitz, http://pierre-schmitz.com

[arch-dev-public] SLiM up for adoption
by Gaetan Bisson 31 Oct '11

31 Oct '11

Hi devs, Hi TUs, I am orphaning SLiM (login manager): upstream is dead, patches keep piling up, and I actually stopped using that package a while ago. As far as I know, our current package has only one unfixed bug: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/26579 Anyhow, I will move that package to the AUR in a week or so unless a dev or a TU wishes to adopt it. Cheers. -- Gaetan

Upstream update. This also adds the new (optional) options field to cryptsetup. If you use a SSD, you can change cryptdevice=/dev/foo:bar to cryptdevice=/dev/foo:bar:allow-discards to enable discard functionality on the crypto mapping.
