[arch-dev-public] [signoff] pacman 3.1.4, libarchive 2.4.17
by Dan McGee 03 Apr '08

03 Apr '08

Signoffs for both architectures needed, as well as a build of pacman for x86_64 (since pacman depends on the new libarchive, I can't build with satisfied deps as I don't have sudo, and I really can't do anything without sudo including installing a package in my chroot). pacman changes: http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/pacman-dev/2008-April/011561.html libarchive changes: who knows, but 3 minor versions in like 2 days. It should be plenty stable though, I promise. -Dan

[arch-dev-public] licenses: GPL permutations
by Paul Mattal 02 Apr '08

02 Apr '08

What is the right way to list all the various contortions you can now have of GPL in the license array? There's: GPL - any version of GPL GPL2 - only version 2 GPL2+ - version 2 or later GPL3 - version 3 only GPL3+ - version 3 or later These are all substantively different (except the last two.. for now) so how do we express these? Should we actually create common licenses GPL2+ and GPL3+ which reference the other two, and make GPL reference them all? Do we need a GPL1 and GPL1+? - P

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] mkinitcpio 0.5.18.1
by Thomas Bächler 02 Apr '08

02 Apr '08

Quick bugfix. I have no idea why the bug didn't occur yesterday and all the days before (on an identical filelist), but today, the use of sort -u in mkinitcpio broke my image: /lib/modules/2.6.25-rc8 was added before /lib/modules and thus extraction failed (cpio is very bitchy about this). The only change is: http://projects.archlinux.org/git/?p=mkinitcpio.git;a=commitdiff;h=45a9fab4… Please sign off quickly, before nobody can boot their arch anymore.

[arch-dev-public] Dropping ipw3945 from core
by Thomas Bächler 31 Mar '08

31 Mar '08

After I discovered that my problems with the new Intel driver where related to dhclient and fixed the bug, I am now successfully using iwl3945 on my machine. It seems to be working perfectly, so I am considering dropping ipw3945 from core/support with the 2.6.25 release (so there will be no new package versions after ipw3945-1.2.2-8). This is intended as a warning, but also as a question: Is there anyone who cannot use iwl3945 instead of ipw3945?

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] kernel26 2.6.24.4-1, support/atl2 2.0.4-1
by Thomas Bächler 30 Mar '08

30 Mar '08

Changes to the latest kernel by tpowa: - All patches have been collapsed into a single patch-2.6.24.4-1. Patch generation is done by abuse of makepkg now and nothing is done inside a SCM, but that will be fixed. Currently, everything is in http://dev.archlinux.org/~thomas/kernel26/linux-2.6-ARCH.tar.bz2. - removed pre-2.6.24.4 patch and updated to 2.6.24.4 - updated unionfs to 2.3.1 (according to simo this fixes some race conditions) - removed the aufs splice patch due to incompatibility with unionfs. This breaks aufs, but Simo promised to fix it (ping Simo) - removed the atl2 patch and moved it to a separate package in core/support due to the many complaints by developers. - Some PKGBUILD stupidity cleanup: Remove /boot/kconfig26, because it is the most unnecessary file in the history of unnecessary files - Removed /etc/mkinitcpio.d/kernel26-fallback.conf, because the default fallback image doesn't need a separate config file anymore Please sign off. We need to move some kernel to core fast, because applications built with gcc 4.3 might be broken with any other kernel. (At the time I am posting this, only x86_64 is uploaded and tested, i686 will be uploaded in a few minutes, but untested).
