[arch-dev-public] SVN repository maintenance
by Dan McGee 22 Jun '10

22 Jun '10

I'd like to do some maintenance operations on our SVN packages repository on gerolde at some point (svn-packages). The format is still that from the 1.4.X series and we can make it a lot more efficient and get some space savings by doing either an in place upgrade and modification (easier but not preferred) or by doing a dump/load into the new format. In order to do this though, I need to make the repository temporarily unavailable for everyone for however long this takes. I don't foresee it taking more than 4 or so hours from start to finish. Does anyone have any objections with me doing this sometime tonight, e.g. 22nd June from 3 AM UTC - 7 AM UTC? -Dan

[arch-dev-public] [Bug] db-scripts fail to remove split package
by Thomas Bächler 21 Jun '10

21 Jun '10

I made this change to the kernel26 PKGBUILD: http://repos.archlinux.org/wsvn/packages/?op=comp&compare[]=%2Fkernel26%2Ft… However, db-testing fails to remove the kernel26-firmware package. I need to remove it manually.

[arch-dev-public] Committing multi-arch split packages
by Jan de Groot 21 Jun '10

21 Jun '10

So we have multi-arch split package support in Makepkg now. I tested this a bit, and results are nice: $ du -hs /srv/ftp/testing/os/*/wesnoth-1.8.2-2-*.pkg.tar.xz 266M /srv/ftp/testing/os/i686/wesnoth-1.8.2-2-i686.pkg.tar.xz 266M /srv/ftp/testing/os/x86_64/wesnoth-1.8.2-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz $ du -hs wesnoth-1.8.2-3-* wesnoth-data-1.8.2-3-any.pkg.tar.xz 3.2M wesnoth-1.8.2-3-i686.pkg.tar.xz 3.2M wesnoth-1.8.2-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz 262M wesnoth-data-1.8.2-3-any.pkg.tar.xz Downside of this is that makechrootpkg builds the -any package twice, so things could be improved there. Question is: how will commitpkg and our dbscripts handle this?

[arch-dev-public] WARNING boost 1.43 enter testing
by Ionuț Bîru 20 Jun '10

20 Jun '10

Hi DEVs/TUs, this new version has been split into boost-libs and boost. Now boost is a makedepends and boost-libs a depends. If you rebuild a package that is not yours, please check to see if a new upstream version is available, mostly to be compatible with boost >1.41. encfs and schroot is two that comes in my head right now. Others, please test it and let me know via bugtracker if we have any problems with the new boost. i know there was a problem with gcc 4.5 but every patch that i found, is already applied in this version. -- Ionuț

Removed the i18n patch. Test sorting etc. This will sit in [testing] for a while to assess how much of a difference this makes. Allan

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] udev 157-1, initscripts 2010.06-1, mkinitcpio 0.6.5-1
by Thomas Bächler 19 Jun '10

You should upgrade and test these together (don't forget to regenerate initramfs when you're upgraded). The new udev should work without the new initscripts and mkinitcpio, but udev-based network device renaming will fail in that case. udev is an upstream update with mostly bugfixes, but some changes in behaviour. Most importantly, NAME= rules are being ignored now, you can not change the kernel's predefined device name anymore. initscripts changes: Dan McGee (1): Include _netdev option in NETFS list when calling fsck Thomas Bächler (2): Only mount /proc, /sys and /dev if they haven't been mounted already, use devtmpfs instead of tmpfs if supported by the kernel Add --action=add to udevadm trigger mkinitcpio changes: Thomas Bächler (5): Do not umount /proc and /sys before switch_root, but mount --move them into the real root Mount tmpfs or (if supported) devtmpfs on /dev, move it into the real root before switch_root udev hook: Add --action=add to udevadm trigger udev hook: Add ata_id, path_id, scsi_id and usb_id to allow complete persistent storage rules Release 0.6.5 For the future, we now fully support devtmpfs. It is recommended (but not required (yet)) by upstream. Using devtmpfs gets rid of a small number of race conditions. I tested devtmpfs on a custom kernel, and with the exception of one short (and harmless) error message (mknod: /dev/rtc0: device exists), it works fine. Getting rid of that error message requires further consideration, as we can fix a bug with some custom kernel configurations at the same time if we do it right. For now, I will ignore this and please ask for testing and signoffs.
