[arch-dev-public] [signoff] filesystem 2010.09 1
by Pierre Schmitz 19 Sep '10

19 Sep '10

Hi, this package sets a "last password change" date for the system users like "nobody" which were defined in our default /etc/shadow. It was set to 0 previously which has the special meaning of enforcing a password change on users login. As a result su $user didn't work for such users. (see pkgstats thread) To test this change check the output of "chage -l nobody" and "su -s /bin/sh -c whoami nobody" before and after installing this package. Please sign off, Pierre PS: With this fixed we might also replace sudo usage in makechrootpkg by just su. -- Pierre Schmitz, https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre

[arch-dev-public] dejagnu added to [extra]
by Allan McRae 16 Sep '10

16 Sep '10

Hi, I believe I mentioned this a while back, but I have just added dejgnu to [extra] for running more testsuites for toolchain related packages (at least gcc, gnudb). The last release of dejagnu was in 2004 so I will probably need to do some patching once it gets more use. Allan

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] glib2 2.24.2-1
by Jan de Groot 15 Sep '10

15 Sep '10

Please signoff for both architectures. Upstream changelog: * Bugs fixed: 578295 gtester has a race condition 619945 GConverterOutputStream triggers assertion and corrupts data 621168 GKeyFile memory leak on Windows platform 616216 glib compile from remote directory fails This release also doesn't contain static libraries anymore. Upstream doesn't ship them by default. As glib2 is a base package now, I don't see the need to specifically enable them as was done in previous versions.
