The update of the file list in the web interface might be delayed compared to the update of the package data itself. Dan, what can we do here? Should a version mismatch between $repo.db and $repo.files cause archweb to discard the file list, stating that "There is currently no file list available for this package", or should archweb print a warning "This is a file list from an older version of this package and might differ from the current package". Is anything like this already done in archweb? Should it? Right now, the delay between updating the package info and the file list can be (in the worst case) little over 24 hours. Given that our packages update and change frequently, I think we should avoid confusion like in Auguste's case.

[arch-dev-public] PostgreSQL 9.0.1 in [testing]
by Dan McGee 19 Oct '10

Community feedback welcome as well, but this is now in testing now that the Python rebuild has moved on. Please let me know (good and bad) how things are going with it so I can move it along to [extra]. Long-term, this probably needs some packaging love so pg_upgrade is actually usable on Arch, but that has not happened yet so you will require the old-school dump/reload with these. If anyone wants to undertake this project and get this into a state where it is possible to use pg_upgrade you are more than welcome to contribute patches and such for the build and whatever else we have to do. -Dan

(I > wonder how those user pictures got there) Where oh where have the website maintainers gone? We had people that said they were going to be the loving parents of these things and then they walked off after one round of changes not to be seen again... I feel like we need one or two people to really step up here. Whether new or existing devs, I don't care, but there are some definite good things that can be done with regards to all of our websites, and having regular maintainers is a huge help. They wouldn't be stuck working on one single site, as they could handle re-themes for everything, help get some movement on things upstream beneficial to us (good searching for forums/wiki, "caching" in FluxBB, etc). I can't remember if we had any junior devs willing to do this type of work, but I'd be willing to serve as a mentor at first if it meant these things actually got regular maintenance. -Dan
