[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

Again, same procedure. First a trivial one.

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

[arch-dev-public] db-4.8 FUTURE rebuild list
by Allan McRae 15 Sep '09

15 Sep '09

Hi, I just added a db-4.8 rebuild list to the internal TODO list manager. I am not even going to think about actually doing this until the libldap and postgresql are done and out of [testing]... Allan

[arch-dev-public] Bringing WindowMaker forward
by Daniel Isenmann 14 Sep '09

14 Sep '09

Hi, I know that most of you doesn't really use WindowMaker or think it's obsolete. Nevertheless I use it daily at my main desktop and I'm very happy with it. Sadly there were no release since 4 years! :( At the moment there are some very active developers which forked the actual last CVS snapshot of WindowMaker and doing a lot of work with new features and bugfixes. The mailinglist of WindowMaker is very active with those developers and it looks promising. I have used there GIT snapshot since a few days and it looks very good. I would like to replace our official package with a regular updated GIT snapshot package to give the new developers as much feedback as possible and to give our WindowMaker users a more fresh WindowMaker than the 4 years old one. Any objections in doing this? Cheers, Daniel

[arch-dev-public] openldap build options
by Allan McRae 14 Sep '09

14 Sep '09

Hi, For the upcoming {lib,open}ldap update, there are a few bug that can be addressed: FS#12946 - [openldap] Please unsplit I see no issue with joining openldap and openldap-clients. It adds no new deps to openldap and only increases the package size by a small amount. Any reason they were split? I understand the splitting of libldap. FS#14598 - [openldap] enable slapd overlays (slapo) This is a tougher one... Adding the "--enable-overlays=mod --enable-modules=yes" configure flags results in a whole lot of libtools files that appear to actually be needed (binaries link to libltdl). I know not a lot about this so am unsure how to proceed. As an aside, we will probably end up being the only Linux distro with files in this package linked to libfetch. Allan
