[arch-dev-public] [signoff] abs-2.3.2-1
by Allan McRae 31 Mar '09

31 Mar '09

Hi, As noted in FS#14038, the permissions of the ABS tree in the rsync server were not as they should be. This abs release adjusts the rsync command so that permissions are not copied. I also added an install script to attempt to correct the permissions in peoples ABS trees. I would like a signoff from someone with wrong directory permissions in /var/abs, reporting that they are nicely fixed afterwards. Allan

[arch-dev-public] Orphanage accounting
by Firmicus 30 Mar '09

30 Mar '09

I did some orphanage accounting earlier today, and I believe the following lists should be useful. Please (re-)adopt whenever you can! == 1. Orphans for i686 that are maintained for x86_64 == bluez-gnome (geoffroy) libassuan (tpowa) openexr (tpowa) == 2. Orphans for both arches that are dependencies of non-orphaned packages in extra == orphan < dependency_of (maintainer) ------------------------------------------------------- allegro < devil (douglas) aubio < ardour (tobias k) bittorrent < archboot (tpowa) giblib < feh (james), scrot (giovanni) glew < enblend-enfuse (tobias) gtkmathview < abiword-plugins (giovanni) gtk-sharp < autopano-sift (tobias) [perhaps make it depend on gtk-sharp2 instead ?] ladspa < ardour (tobias) lensfun < digikam (tpowa) libgnomedb < abiword-plugins (giovanni) libgphoto2 < digikam (tpowa) libiec61883 < dvgrab (giovanni) liblo < ardour (tobias) liblrdf < ardour (tobias) libofa < bmpx (kevin) libtorrent-rasterbar < deluge (hugo) libwpd < abiword-plugins (giovanni) link-grammar < abiword-plugins (giovanni) mime-types < courier-mta (tobias) openslp < cups (andyrtr) opensp < epiphany-extensions (jgc) psiconv < abiword-plugins (giovanni) pth < dirmngr (tpowa) python-numpy < biopython (douglas) tdb < archboot (tpowa) == 3.

[arch-dev-public] Status of X in testing
by Jan de Groot 30 Mar '09

30 Mar '09

Last weekend I've done updates to xorg-server, libdrm, mesa and some drivers. With these updates the last issues with keyboards and touchpads should be solved. I will build these updates for i686 tonight. At this moment we have some open issues: - Big intel memory leaks with DRI2 and UXA - Small intel memory leaks with DRI and EXA - Intel performance with KMS - ATI memory leaks with DRI At this moment, I don't think KMS and DRI2 should be blockers for moving this to extra. KMS doesn't work correctly on all systems, slows things down and given the fact that UXA is a requirement, I don't consider this as stable. Maybe the next kernel will improve things. This leaves us with two blocker bugs: the intel and ati memory leaks. The intel leaks are triggered by desktop effects or compiz, the ATI memoryleaks are triggered by anything DRI related. I don't know how much of this is fixed with the latest libdrm and libgl/mesa.

This is mostly a feature update, but you'll need compat-wireless to use most of the new ones. Anyway, please sign off.
