[arch-dev-public] About libcap
by Hugo Doria 19 Dec '08

19 Dec '08

I just adopted libcap and realized that it is really out-dated. Any reason for us use libcap 1.10 and grab it from kernel-2.4? http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/security/linux-privs/ http://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/i686/libcap/ -- Hugo

[arch-dev-public] Python packaging policy
by Allan McRae 19 Dec '08

19 Dec '08

Hi all, A few recent bugs have highlighted issues with how we deal with compiled versions (.pyo/.pyc) of python (.py) files. We should probably make a policy on how these should be handled during packaging. Given I am the python maintainer, I suppose I should be doing this, but I am wanting to do some more makepkg/pacman stuff so it would be good if someone else wants to take the lead on this. Here is a couple of policies from other distros Debian: http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/python-policy/ Fedora: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Python If someone (not necessarily a dev) wants to help out with this, then it would be much appreciated. Thanks, Allan

[arch-dev-public] Move repo-maint emails to the arch-commits list?
by Aaron Griffin 19 Dec '08

19 Dec '08

I got an email today saying that the repo maintenance emails are kinda spammy on the arch-dev-public list. What do you guys think about moving it off to another list. Either the private list, or the commits list? Opinions?

[arch-dev-public] KDE 4.2 Beta 2 available
by Pierre Schmitz 18 Dec '08

18 Dec '08

Hey guys, Beta 2 of KDE 4.2 was announced today and should be available on every mirror now. Those packages are dedicated to those who like to help fixing upstream and packaging bugs. More information will be available at http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:KDE This version of KDE 4.2 is stable enough for daily usage. But don't forget that this is still work in progress. The packages are still missing some deps, which means that not every feature is available (see todo list above). Changelogs can be found at http://kde.org/announcements/announce-4.2-beta2.php and http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDE4/4.2_Changelog. Another announcement was released at http://dot.kde.org/1229613785/. Have fun, Pierre -- Pierre Schmitz Clemens-August-Straße 76 53115 Bonn Telefon 0228 9716608 Mobil 0160 95269831 Jabber pierre(a)jabber.archlinux.de WWW http://www.archlinux.de

[arch-dev-public] biopython depends on python-numpy from community
by Andreas Radke 18 Dec '08

18 Dec '08

this shouldn't happen when you build in a clean chroot environment. biopython has a stat of only 0.24% - shouldn't we remove it to community/AUR? -Andy
