[arch-dev-public] db-5 rebuild
by Allan McRae 09 Apr '10

09 Apr '10

Another week, another rebuild. This time it is the update to db-5. It looks like the big version jump is due to adding new features rather than API changes, but I need to investigate further. Library changes: libdb-4.so -> libdb-5.so libdb-4.8.so -> libdb-5.0.so libdb_cxx-4.so -> libdb_cxx-5.so libdb_cxx-4.8.so -> libdb_cxx-5.0.so Rebuild list for [core] and [extra]: apr-util bogofilter claws-mail courier-authlib courier-imap courier-maildrop courier-mta db dovecot evolution-data-server evolution-exchange gift-openft go-openoffice heimdal iproute2 libetpan libsasl moc mod_perl openldap openoffice-base openoffice-base-beta openoffice-base-devel pam perl php postfix python redland ruby subversion webalizer xemacs

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] openssl, heimdal and icu rebuilds
by Pierre Schmitz 08 Apr '10

08 Apr '10

Thanks to everybody who helped we are nearly done with the rebuilds. So we could start calling for sign-offs. If you have found a bug related to the openssl or heimdal updates, please report and add me to the assignees. * openssl was updated from 0.9.8n to 1.0.0 which is a new major release. See http://cvs.openssl.org/fileview?f=openssl/CHANGES&v=1.1481.2.51 * heimdal was updated from 1.3.1 to 1.3.2 * icu was updated from 4.2.1 to 4.4 The following [core] packages were affected and need to be tested: dnsutils heimdal libarchive libfetch libldap librpcsecgss links nfs-utils openssh openssl openvpn pacman syslog-ng vpnc wget wpa_supplicant I'll attach two lists of pkgbase names: one to be moved to core/extra and the other one for community. -- Pierre Schmitz, https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre

Allan and I talked a bit on IRC and we both came to some idea that a vercmp without any deps would probably be a good solution. We can hack this up for now, file attached to do so. If this goes into the pacman package dir in SVN and we just add a "gcc -O2 -o vercmp vercmp.c" in there and put it in the right place, we can avoid a lot of hassle with everything here. -Dan

[arch-dev-public] WARNING: [testing] broken due to openssl and heimdal rebuilds
by Pierre Schmitz 07 Apr '10

07 Apr '10

Hi all, this is a warning for [testing] users not to update until the upcoming openssl/heimdal rebuilds are done. This will break a lot of important packages. I am bootstrapping openssl and rebuild the most imporant packages like pacman atm. I'll send another mail to the openssl-1.0.0 thread when you can start rebuilding. Greetings, Pierre -- Pierre Schmitz, https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre

Does anyone know the reason why it is there and whether it can be moved? Allan

[arch-dev-public] xorg-server 1.8 repository
by Jan de Groot 06 Apr '10

06 Apr '10

There's a new repository for xorg-server 1.8 packages. As this release requires new drivers and reconfiguration, I decided to put it in its own repository to not break testing for a lot of users. Packages have been built on top of testing, but as this new version does not depend on OpenSSL anymore, it should work fine on top of core+extra. Kernel 2.6.33 from testing is recommended due to DRI improvements in that version. To use the repository, add this repository on top of testing to pacman.conf: [xorg18] Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist This release works with udev for input hotplugging and supports /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/*.conf as replacement for the hal .fdi files. After upgrading to this release, configuration for input devices in hal is ignored and should be done by udev rules or xorg.conf.d files. Documentation about this change can be found on: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Input_device_configuration At this moment there's no nvidia driver available for xorg-server 1.8.0. The version in the extra repository works with the -ignoreABI option (which can be set as option in xorg.conf also), but performance is not as good as with xorg-server 1.7. The support for xorg-server 1.8 is experimental and is not yet officially supported by Nvidia. Things todo before this merges to extra: - Add documentation about input configuration to our wiki, as hal is deprecated now - Ask nvidia for a driver that works without ignoreABI, I'm sure they can give us a timeframe for that - Add xorg.conf.d config files for input drivers, right now only evdev and synaptics have config files - Fix xf86-video-siliconmotion, xf86-video-unichrome, xf86-video-nouveau
