[arch-dev-public] problem with db-update
by Firmicus 20 Aug '09

20 Aug '09

The db-update script drives me crazy tonight. I have updated and commited the pkg asymptote but for some obscure reason db-update stubbornly refuses to add it to the repo. First it worked for x86_64 but failed for i686. I found that this was due to a bug in makepkg that does not recreate .PKGINFO when repackaging with option -R (a patch for this was submitted by Allan yesterday I think). In any case, I have just rebuilt it the old way, ran "extrapkg" again, but lo an behold, db-update keeps giving me the same damned error message: [francois@gerolde ~]$ /arch/db-extra Updating DB for extra-i686 ==> Copying DB file from 'extra'... ==> Processing 1 new/updated packages for repository 'extra'... Checked out revision 50068. Validating package arch (i686) asymptote Checking SVN for asymptote WARNING: asymptote-1.83-3-i686.pkg.tar.gz does not match PKGBUILD in extra-i686 Errors found when adding packages Updating DB for extra-x86_64 No packages to add Any idea?

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] kernel26 2.6.30.5-1
by Thomas Bächler 19 Aug '09

19 Aug '09

Another upstream release, please sign off. This also "fixes" the recent local root exploit, although (I like to repeat that), it was NOT exploitable on our 2.6.30.4 kernel unless you explicitly ran "echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr". However, the .30.5 kernel is safe from this exploit even if you run that command. I only built x86_64 so far, will do i686 in a minute (takes forever to build though). And - with our recent mirror trouble - it might take a while to propagate through the tubes.

[arch-dev-public] [Patch] dbscripts: fix for any arch support
by Eric Bélanger 19 Aug '09

19 Aug '09

Hi, Here is a patch (only provided inline) to fix any arch support to the dbscripts. It will add any support for the sourceball script and probably fix the clean up scripts. It also set the BUILDSCRIPT as it will be no longer defined in makepkg.conf as of pacman 3.3. The patch for db-update is required as the any arch is treated as a special case (and db-update works with current /arch/config ).

[arch-dev-public] Default LDFLAGS for official packages
by Thomas Bächler 15 Aug '09

15 Aug '09

I think we should agree on a default LDFLAGS setting for our official packages. In the pacman signoff thread, it was suggested to use -Wl,--as-needed and later also -Wl,--no-undefined (and more). Can we compose a default LDFLAGS line that we all should use?
