[arch-dev-public] openssh 5.3p1-4: sshd script kills all sshd processes??
by Thomas Bächler 10 Mar '10

10 Mar '10

What did whoever commited this smoke? It must have been very good: http://repos.archlinux.org/wsvn/packages/?op=comp&compare[]=%2Fopenssh%2Ftr… Whenever you want to do /etc/rc.d/sshd restart remotely, it will kill your ssh session. It is an important feature of openssh that all ssh connections stay OPEN even if you kill the master server. With this change, you will get kicked and goodbye remote server.

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] openssh 5.4p1-1

This new packages reverts the commit that introduces this bug: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/18611 By this http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/17138 has to be reopened. We can either ignore this or find a real way to fix this issue. I don#t think that pidof should be used on its own. I also update to the new upstream release. So please give it a try and sign- off.

[arch-dev-public] LVM/MDADM and GRUB2
by Tobias Powalowski 10 Mar '10

10 Mar '10

Hi, has anyone succeeded in having /boot on a lvm volume, or a mdadm raid device, which grub2 can directly boot from it? If yes please give me some advice how to do it, i want to add full grub2 support to archboot setup and the docs are quite messy. I haven't found a way to do such a setup. Many thanks for any input. greetings tpowa -- Tobias Powalowski Archlinux Developer & Package Maintainer (tpowa) http://www.archlinux.org tpowa(a)archlinux.org

[arch-dev-public] Rebuild list scripts
by Allan McRae 10 Mar '10

10 Mar '10

Hi, I know of at least three of us that have written rebuild list scripts. Can we get a common one into devtools or something? I posted one here a long time ago. See: http://allanmcrae.com/scripts/rebuildlist . There is also a script that tries (and fails) to give a rebuild order: http://allanmcrae.com/scripts/rebuildorder . It parses "pacman -Si <pkg>" to get deps so misses makedeps altogether... Or could we get something running on gerolde. It could be efficient and create a list of needed libraries for each package which is then updated via a cron job. Then generating a rebuild list would be a grep and could even be down automatically through the TODO list interface... Allan

[arch-dev-public] gmp-5.0 rebuild list
by Allan McRae 10 Mar '10

10 Mar '10

Hi, I just added a rebuild list gmp-5.0 to the TODO lists. Note [community] needs scanned (libgmp.so). gmp-5.0 is labeled as a "performance release" while gmp-4.x is the "stable release". I still think upgrading to 5.0 is the Arch thing to do as "stable release" in this case means that the 4.x series is dead and all new features are in 5.0. This will not be happening for at least a week due to lack of time on my end to do the needed toolchain update/rebuild. Allan

I also think we should fix only the package that we add in ftp dir. my patch attached. -- Andrea

The cron has: /bin/chmod -R g+w $d/os/{any,i686,x86_64} maybe is better if we change it do chmod 664 by default? -- Ionut
