[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. Orphans for x86_64 that are maintained for i686 == This is a longer list, and I have arranged it according to the maintainer of the i686 package: Aaron Griffin : cmatrix Andreas Radke : gjdoc Douglas Soares de Andrade : abuse acct arch arj at avahi bc biogrep blassic bomberclone cdrdao cdtool cegui centerim colortail crimson cvs cvsps cx_freeze dia elinks ethstatus ethtool figlet flashplugin fox gajim joe libdvdcss libdvdnav libdvdread libflashsupport libmysqlclient libpng libpqxx libsexy libsexymm linux_logo lsof lynx mod_python most mtr myodbc mysql mysql-clients ntop patchutils pdns-recursor pebrot planner postgresql postgresql-libs privoxy putty python-gdata python-geoip pyxml qt-doc qt3-doc quilt rcs rdesktop scons sharutils sim smc snes9x source-highlight time tor unarj unixodbc unzip whois wv wv2 xbill zip zope zope-interface James Rayner : apricots basket bs dgen-sdl dosbox feh gnupod gweled irssi mutt nbsmtp ncmpc nethack schedtool synergy tango-icon-theme ubuntulooks w3m Jan de Groot : esound Jeff Mickey : cscope tin Paul Mattal : apache-ant aufs aufs-utils dcfldd ddrescue dnsmasq eclipse eclipse-cdt enscript mt-st mtx postfix qiv slimserver smtpprox squirrelmail tightvnc truecrypt xfsdump yp-tools Tobias Powalowski : gpgme musicbrainz ocfs2-tools pmount progsreiserfs smbclient spassgen ---

[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.

minor upstream update. please signoff. -Andy The file... ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/tzdata2009c.tar.gz ...is now available; this reflects the change to the start of Cuban DST circulated last week on the time zone mailing list. I'm holding off on a San Luis (Argentina) change pending investigation of whether they plan to switch clocks every year. --ado

[arch-dev-public] aufs / unionfs / aufs2
by Thomas Bächler 28 Mar '09

28 Mar '09

Okay, I received a few mails from Christopher Rogers who played with these filesystems and 2.6.29. According to his statements, he could get aufs2 to compile, but it only actually worked when he omitted the unionfs patch. Maintaining this patch mess has been a PITA, so I say we have a choice here: Choose one and drop the rest. I think aufs should not be considered, but only unionfs or aufs2. I don't use these, but the people who do should give some input on which one to choose.

[arch-dev-public] Adding two packages to [core]
by Allan McRae 28 Mar '09

28 Mar '09

Hi, With gcc-4.4 nearing release (once licensing issues are resolved), I will be adding two new deps for gcc to the [core] repo. PPL and Cloog-PPL are required for graphite optimizations which were merged in gcc-4.4. A default ppl install is 15MB of libraries etc and 20MB of documentation so I will be building it with "!docs".
