[arch-dev-public] [signoff] sqlite3 3.6.14.1-1
by Andreas Radke 24 May '09

24 May '09

minor upstream fix. also removes RPATH, fixes #14368. please signoff. -Andy Version 3.6.14.1 is a branch of version 3.6.14 with patches applied to fix three bugs. See http://www.sqlite.org/releaselog/3_6_14_1.html fpr details. The changes are minimal and users who are not bothered by any of the three bugs do not need not upgrade. Under normal circumstances, we would have let these three fixes accumulate in the SQLite source tree until the next regular release in June. But an SQLite Consortium member requested expedited resolution of the bugs and so we are making these fixes available in this unscheduled version 3.6.14.1 release. Changes associated with this release include the following: * Fix a bug in group_concat(), ticket #3841 * Fix a performance bug in the pager cache, ticket #3844 * Fix a bug in the sqlite3_backup implementation that can lead to a corrupt backup database. Ticket #3858.

[arch-dev-public] Adding some kind of Captcha to our Wiki
by Pierre Schmitz 23 May '09

23 May '09

Hi all, as discussed here http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=557394 some spam bots seem to like our wiki. I have developed a very simple but effective way to stop such bots. Of course they could easily bypass it but as it is not used by anybody else the bot programmers just don't know about it. The idea is to set a cookie on each form which existence will be checked before each form action. The cookie is set by an "image" which is included by CSS. Until now there seems to be no bot which reads CSS definitions. Those which use text browsers will see a text form in which they need to enter a short hex code in order to submit anything. Anyone else wont even notice that there is a captcha. So, what do you think? Should I activate this plugin? The only thing I need to do is translating some error mesages from German into English.

[arch-dev-public] [PATCH] Start sequences of daemons in background
by James Rayner 23 May '09

23 May '09

This patch allows you to background a whole sequence of daemons, rather than an individual daemon. As a result, you can get a very fast parallel boot. I suppose this could be considered an 'arch like' parallel boot setup. This isn't my idea, I'm sure someone has made a patch like this before however I couldnt find it and it never got merged. The major benefit is that boot doesnt get held up by slow starting dependencies, like hal and network. I can't background network because I have other services that depend on it such as nfs, ssh, iptables, ntpdate and cups. Similarly, I cant background hal, as gdm depends on it. For example... DAEMONS=(@net-auto,ntpdate,cups @acpi,hal,gdm syslog-ng cpufreq bluetooth crond) Comma delimited groups are started in background and run in sequence. Bootchart testing I saw a consistent improvement of at least 5s, from 31s to 26s. One boot somehow acheived 23s, and that was with full auto wireless enabled. I used a fixed modules list to avoid any inconsistency in udev time, so udev was always 1.9-2.1 seconds. I also used a wired connection for network as wireless connection time varied too much. There is a more noticable improvement with wireless, as it takes longer and can be backgrounded with the patch.

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] dbus 1.2.14 (non-permissive)
by Jan de Groot 22 May '09

22 May '09

I would like to request signoff for dbus 1.2.14. This is the non-permissive branch which could break applications that don't install correct dbus policy files. I haven't had bugreports since this package has gone into testing, so I would like to start a signoff thread for both architectures.
