[arch-dev-public] Buggy krb5-config script
by Jan de Groot 28 Jul '11

28 Jul '11

This morning when Ionut was trying to update gtk3, he noticed that the CUPS print backend would pull in libgcrypt, which is no longer needed, as GnuTLS depends on nettle now instead of libgcrypt. This bug was quickly resolved with a short patch from Fedora. After fixing CUPS, we found out that CUPS would pull in a lot of other libraries and weird CFLAGS in the cups-config output: $ cups-config --libs -lcups -march=x86-64 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe -I/usr/include/dbus-1.0 -I/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include -DDBUS_API_SUBJECT_TO_CHANGE -Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Wl,--as-needed -lgssapi_krb5 -lkrb5 -lk5crypto -lcom_err -lkeyutils -lresolv -ldl -lz -lm -lcrypt Notice the weird CFLAGS that are copied into the LDFLAGS now. These flags don't come from CUPS, but from krb5: CFLAGS=test krb5-config --libs $ CFLAGS=test krb5-config --libs test -Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Wl,--as-needed -lkrb5 -lk5crypto -lcom_err -lkeyutils -lresolv -ldl So it turns out krb5-config is plain wrong here. Fedora has a patch for this: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=krb5.git;a=blob;f=krb5-1.9.1-buildc… Another quite useful patch would be this: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=krb5.git;a=blob;f=krb5-1.7-nodeplib… I'm not sure about the whole library fixup things they're doing in the first patch, but most important will be the first section of the part that is applied to krb5-config.in. OK to apply this? As krb5 is a dependency of quite some packages, this would reduce lots of unneeded libs those packages.

[arch-dev-public] KDE 4.7 hits [testing]
by Andrea Scarpino 27 Jul '11

27 Jul '11

Hi arKers, KDE 4.7 has been released[1] and our packages are ready in [testing]. As you already know KDE is (slowly) moving to GIT. With this transition some KDE module has been splitted into subprojects, and the remaining modules should be splitted before KDE 4.8. The result of this is that some package (e.g. kdegraphics-libs) is now splitted in several packages and each new package conflicts with the old kdegraphics-libs, so you have to remove it when pacman asks for its removal during the update. Here some info about the splitted modules: - KDE Workspace: wallpapers are now in a separate package named kde-wallpapers, this reduced the kdebase-workspace package download size by 70%. - KDE Graphics: kdegraphics-libs is now splitted in kdegraphics-ksaneplugin, kdegraphics-strigi-analyzer, kdegraphics-svgpart, kdegraphics-thumbnailers, libkdcraw, libkexiv2, libkipi, libksane. Our official packages which depends on kdegraphics-libs have been updated to depend on the new libraries; the upgrade should work without any issue, otherwise please report it to our bug tracker. - KDE Edu: kdeedu-libkdeedu and kdeedu-data have been dropped and libkdeedu will replace them. - KDE Bindings: every subproject has been splitted in two parts: one for the qt bindings and one for the KDE bindings. The old packages have been remove and the new one are: kdebindings-kimono, kdebindings-kross-java, kdebindings-kross-python, kdebindings-korundum, kdebindings-perlkde, kdebindings-perlqt, kdebindings-qtruby, kdebindings-qyoto, kdebindings-smokegen, kdebindings-smokekde, kdebindings-smokeqt. - KDE Accessibility: kdeaccessibility-colorschemes and kdeaccessibility-iconthemes are dropped and replaced. Have a nice update! [1] http://kde.org/announcements/4.7/ -- Andrea

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] initscripts-2011.07.1-1
by Tom Gundersen 27 Jul '11

27 Jul '11

Hi guys, It has been almost two months since the last initscripts release, and a lot of small changes have been merged (and a few big ones). In particular, I'd like to point out a last minute addition by Dave: a new script, /usr/lib/initscripts/arch-tmpfiles, which is ran at boot to clean and create files and folders in non-persistent directories (such as /run and /tmp). Daemons that needs this functionality (such as udisks) can get it by putting a .conf file in /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/. This should allow us to support /var/run and /var/lock being symlinked to /run and /run/lock. Please test and signoff. As usual, I'll wait a few extra days before moving to core. Cheers, Tom Changes to rc.conf ------------------ The VERBOSE parameter no longer has an effect, use the kernel's loglevel= parameter instead. Most p If HARDWARECLOCK is empty we will read the value of UTC/LOCAL from hwclock's adjfile instead. To av interacting with the hardwareclock set HARDWARECLOCK="IGNORE". We now support (optionally) setting the broadcast address in the new network config. Behavioral changes ------------------ We no longer silence errors thrown by udev. In particular, if udevadm --settle times out, we get an We no longer adjust the rtc on boot, as it is unreliable, we only make corrections for the timezone We no longer mount /run as noexec. Misc changes ------------ Cleaning up of /tmp and friends is now done by an external tool. This tool is intended to allow pac kages to maintain {/var,}/run{/lock,} in the absense of rc scripts. General refactoring which should make maintenance and writing custom hooks easier.

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] iptables 1.4.12-1
by Dan McGee 25 Jul '11

25 Jul '11

Upstream version bump, but much more worthy of testing due to the initscripts getting an overhaul. * No longer do we do manual clearing of rules, instead, empty state files for each table are used by iptables-restore now to clear out the tables. Please test stop/start/restarting of both iptables and ip6tables to make sure it works as appropriate. * Fix https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/24466 and resetting of ip_forward variable; this is now a deprecated feature in this package and we will never touch this value when stopping iptables. -Dan
