[arch-dev-public] [signoff] moving wicd to extra
by Varun Acharya 21 Nov '07

21 Nov '07

Hi guys, I'd like to move wicd to extra now. After I fixed some errors in the PKGBUILD, I haven't received any more complaints, and I've successfully moved it to /usr from the default /opt. I asked for a signoff on this a while ago, but no one responded, and I assume its cause I forgot to add the "[signoff]" to the subject line. Specifically, I'd like to know how it fares with encrypted wireless networks. From what I've seen, this program seems to be one of the easiest ways to get onto wireless networks. Available for both architectures in testing. signoff please. Varun

Hi all. openswan 2.4.10-1 is now in testing, for i686 only. I'd be grateful if somebody could build it for x86_64, so we can signoff for both arches. Thanks Tom.

[arch-dev-public] Rebuild of core repo will start in few (1-2) hours
by Daniel Isenmann 19 Nov '07

19 Nov '07

Hi, after the PKGBUILD were fixed (big thanks to tpowa and Roman), I will start the rebuild of core repo in 1-2 hours. Packages which are in testing right now from core, wouldn't be affected of the rebuild. They are build with the new toolchain already. Please don't commit anything (no testing stuff, too) to the core repo until I finished and send an email as reply to this one. After finishing with rebuild, I will tag and commit the new PKGBUILDs to the core repo. I will put the packages to testing first. Be patient, because I will do the rebuild for both architectures (i686 and x86_64). If anyone doesn't agree with the rebuild, please send a reply to this email. Daniel

[arch-dev-public] Getting rid of the ABS <-> CVS link
by Aaron Griffin 19 Nov '07

19 Nov '07

Hey guys, I wanted to bring this up here to see if anyone had any input. For the longest time I have hated that ABS is dependent on our version control system. Not only that but we have this whole csup/cvsup thing which is annoying, and _now_ we hit yet another snag: csup doesn't have cvsupd, which means we can't get rid of the cvsup package on gerolde. So yeah, CVS == headache. I wanted to try to get rid of this, and Dan had a brilliant idea: * Some cron job (or even cvs hook) that does a simple export of the repo when it needs to. * rsyncd supplying that exports that dir * Modify 'abs' to use rsync * Boom, done Does anyone have any issues with something like that? Or any better ideas?
