[arch-dev-public] [signoff] pciutils-3.1.8-1
by Tobias Powalowski 27 Oct '11

27 Oct '11

* Released as 3.1.8. * More capabilities: Transaction Processing Hints, Latency Tolerance Reporting. Thanks to Jesse Barnes. * Added BeOS and Haiku ports. Contributed by Francois Revol. * pciutils.pc now uses Libs.private properly. * When we format a name and it does not fit in the buffer, we truncate it instead of returning "buffer too small" instead. This works on all platforms with sane (i.e., C99-compatible) snprintf(). * Various minor bug fixes. * Updated pci.ids to the today's snapshot of the database. Please signoff both arches, greetings tpowa -- Tobias Powalowski Archlinux Developer & Package Maintainer (tpowa) http://www.archlinux.org tpowa(a)archlinux.org

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] glibc-2.14.1-1
by Allan McRae 25 Oct '11

25 Oct '11

Changes: - fairly minor upstream update - removed patches included upstream - gone back to old workaround for crappy DNS servers as both proposed fixed upstream do not fully work. - enabled multi-arch support (single DSO with optimizations for multiple architectures - was disabled incorrectly to work around a bug ages ago...) Signoff both, Allan

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] pcre-8.20-1
by Allan McRae 24 Oct '11

24 Oct '11

Upstream updated. Enabled just-in-time compiler support. Signoff both, Allan Release 8.20 21-Oct-2011 ------------------------ The main change in this release is the inclusion of Zoltan Herczeg's just-in-time compiler support, which can be accessed by building PCRE with --enable-jit. Large performance benefits can be had in many situations. 8.20 also fixes an unfortunate bug that was introduced in 8.13 as well as tidying up a number of infelicities and differences from Perl.

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] sudo-1.8.3-1
by Allan McRae 24 Oct '11

24 Oct '11

Upstream update. Signoff both, Allan What's new in Sudo 1.8.3? * Fixed expansion of strftime() escape sequences in the "log_dir" sudoers setting. * Esperanto, Italian and Japanese translations from translationproject.org. * Sudo will now use PAM by default on AIX 6 and higher. * Added --enable-werror configure option for gcc's -Werror flag. * Visudo no longer assumes all editors support the +linenumber command line argument. It now uses a whitelist of editors known to support the option. * Fixed matching of network addresses when a netmask is specified but the address is not the first one in the CIDR block. * The configure script now check whether or not errno.h declares the errno variable. Previously, sudo would always declare errno itself for older systems that don't declare it in errno.h. * The NOPASSWD tag is now honored for denied commands too, which matches historic sudo behavior (prior to sudo 1.7.0). * Sudo now honors the "DEREF" setting in ldap.conf which controls how alias dereferencing is done during an LDAP search. * A symbol conflict with the pam_ssh_agent_auth PAM module that would cause a crash been resolved. * The inability to load a group provider plugin is no longer a fatal error. * A potential crash in the utmp handling code has been fixed. * Two PAM session issues have been resolved. In previous versions of sudo, the PAM session was opened as one user and closed as another. Additionally, if no authentication was performed, the PAM session would never be closed. * Sudo will now work correctly with LDAP-based sudoers using TLS or SSL on Debian systems. * The LOGNAME, USER and USERNAME environment variables are preserved correctly again in sudoedit mode.

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] udev-174-1
by Tom Gundersen 24 Oct '11

24 Oct '11

Hi guys, A new udev release is in testing. This one has seen lots of changes, both upstream and in the package. See the install message for the important packaging changes (essentially just removing arch-specific stuff). I'm especially interested in feedback from people who use fusectl and configfs so we can figure out what regressions (if any) they are experiencing. We'll probably have to add in some rules again to make things work as before. Give it a spin, let me know of any problems. I'll leave this in [testing] for a while, but please sign off for both arches if it works for you. Cheers, Tom Upstream release notes (I removed some sections that don't apply to us): udev 174 ======== Bugfixes. The path_id, usb_id, input_id tools are built-in commands now and the stand-alone tools do not exist anymore. Static lists of file in initramfs generators need to be updated. For testing, the commands can still be executed standalone with 'udevadm test-builtin <cmd>'. The fusectl filesystem is no longer mounted directly from udev. Systemd systems will take care of mounting fusectl and configfs now. Non-systemd systems need to ship their own rule if they need these filesystems auto-mounted. The long deprecated keys: SYSFS=, ID=, BUS= have been removed. The support for 'udevadm trigger --type=failed, and the RUN{fail_event_on_error} attribute was removed. The udev control socket is now created in /run/udev/control and no longer as an abstract namespace one.

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] mkinitcpio-0.7.5, mkinitcpio-busybox-1.19.2
by Dave Reisner 24 Oct '11

24 Oct '11

Hi all, I've tagged and rolled mkinitcpio 0.7.5 which is mostly more minor fixes. Ideally, this is the last release of the 0.7.x series before I start doing some more serious work. Shortlog is small and found below. I've also rolled up a new busybox package to go with it. I've tested this new combo a variety of setups. Dave Reisner (11): init: refer to busybox by full path on --install move manpage to section 8 mkinitcpio: avoid stomping on TMPDIR from the environment (FS#26373) mkinitcpio: ensure get_kernver always returns a kver install/pcmcia: fix syntax error (missing &&) (FS#26427) manpage: correct section number in manpage header install/udev: relocate udevd for udev 174 install/base: include new_root as part of build process init_functions: tighten up mount option gathering init_functions: replace grep/sed with PEs init_functions: avoid setting var without LHS Please signoff both architectures. Regards, Dave

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] initscripts-2011.10.2
by Tom Gundersen 21 Oct '11

21 Oct '11

Hi guys, This should help work around FS#26337 (hanging mount due to stale mtab lock files). I also added a patch to make the daemon locale handling work the same way as the user locale handling (FS#26178). Please test and signoff (this time I hope it will be final!). Cheers, Tom
