by Allan McRae 17 Sep '09

17 Sep '09

Hi, With the rebuilds currently going on in [testing], it would be a good time to get the [communitesting] repo going (or pick a better name...). What do we need to do to achieve this? Allan

[arch-dev-public] PHP 5.3 in [testing]
by Pierre Schmitz 17 Sep '09

17 Sep '09

Hi all, will move a first set of PHP 5.3 packages to testing.This is a major update which might break some scripts but at least the configuration file php.ini will need a manual update. And instead of abusing optdepends there are now separate packages for some optional modules like the one for postgresql etc.. Some notes: * update your php.ini * module path is now /usr/lib/php/modules * session, mbstring and zlib are now built in * the fileinfo module is now built in and no longer a separate package * mysqlnd is anabled; so libmysqlclient is no longer needed * Setting default-character-set in my.cnf causes encoding problems * Set date.timezone in php.ini * third party extensions need to be updated * the Suhosin 0.9.8 is included; please read http://www.hardened-php.net/suhosin/download.html * There are also new versions of the suhosin and apc extension make sure to review their configuration as well PHP was split into the following packages: php php-apache php-cgi php-curl php-enchant php-gd php-gmp php-intl php-ldap php-mcrypt php-odbc php-pear php-pgsql php-pspell php-snmp php-sqlite php-tidy php-xsl Note that for using php on a webserver you either need the cgi or apache sapi. The sqlite package includes the sqlite3 drivers; the legacy sqlite2 drive is included in the php package itself. Any feedback is welcome, Pierre -- Pierre Schmitz, http://users.archlinux.de/~pierre

[arch-dev-public] dbscripts [PATCH] 2/2
by Firmicus 16 Sep '09

16 Sep '09

It happened to me in the past that I ran "extrapkg" by mistake on a package that had not been updated. It still ended up in ~/staging/extra on gerolde, and when I ran "/arch/db-update extra" it died in the middle of the process of updating a dozen packages. I had to clean the mess by hand. This patch avoids this situation by checking, before starting the update process, whether any pkg in the staging dir is actually already present in the ftp repo, and in such a case removing it from the staging dir.

[arch-dev-public] extrapkg fail
by Dan McGee 16 Sep '09

16 Sep '09

$ extrapkg git-1.6.4.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz 100% 7010KB 70.8KB/s 01:39 File integrity okay. ===> Uploaded /home/makepkg/packages/git-1.6.4.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz Vim: Warning: Output is not to a terminal [1]+ Stopped extrapkg Well that didn't work so well. There is a lot of weird going on in the current version of the script, including all sorts of interesting things when you don't supply a commit message (like it lying to you about what message it used). I'd like to patch it back to using a default message if you don't specify one. What was the original objection to that? -Dan

This one is trivial: it simply adds two convenience scripts for moving -any packages from testing to {core,extra}. F
