[arch-dev-public] glib2 status
by Eric Belanger 07 Dec '07

07 Dec '07

Hi, Currently, on x86_64, glib2 is in the core repo and is at version 2.14.4-1. However, on i686, we have glib2 2.14.2-2 in extra and glib2 2.14.3-1 in testing. Does anyone know why the core move hasn't been done on i686 yet? I believe it had enough sign-offs. Is it an oversight? Also, why the glib2 in x86_64 core is more up-to-date than the i686 testing one? There was no sign-off thread for glib2 2.14.4-1. Is it more up-to-date on x86_64 because gtk2 and associated packages are more up-to-date on x86_64?

[arch-dev-public] Core maintainers
by Aaron Griffin 06 Dec '07

06 Dec '07

Hey guys, I just wanted to bring this up. It's not a huge deal, but it kinda bugs me. When we did the core move, I lost a ton of packages that are now in core. It appears that no one kept track of the maintainers when we moved from current -> core, and I lost some packages that I actually valued quite a bit. Now, again, it's not a huge deal, but I noticed a lot of complaints regarding core orphans at first, when it would have been much easier to just keep track of the old maintainers. So, that said, if anyone has core packages they either don't think are important, or don't care enough about, let me know, because I apparently have like 2 or 3 core packages only. Thanks, Aaron

[arch-dev-public] Adding silly to extra
by Eric Belanger 06 Dec '07

06 Dec '07

Hi, I would like to add silly to extra (it's currently in unsupported). To make smc work on x86_64, the cegui package will need to be rebuilt with the silly image codec enabled. That will close FS#8469. Any objections? Thanks, Eric -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

[arch-dev-public] Moving libol to core
by Eric Belanger 06 Dec '07

06 Dec '07

Hi, I would like to move libol from extra to core/lib. The only package that depends on it (as a makedepends) in the repo is eventlog which is in core. It would make more sense to have libol in core along with eventlog. Any objections?

[arch-dev-public] new x264 and ffmpeg in testing
by Paul Mattal 05 Dec '07

05 Dec '07

I just put a x264 snapshot from 20071201 and an ffmpeg snapshot from 20071204 (built against the new x264) in testing. Please test/rebuild your dependent apps and let me know if there are any bugs. I'd rather choose stabler snapshots sooner rather than later if one of these is unhealthy. - P

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] netcfg2 to [core]
by James Rayner 04 Dec '07

04 Dec '07

Anyone got any problems with releasing netcfg2 from testing? The results of the testing thus far are here, and there's many people who've got it working on the forums. I've only had some minor changes in the last release, some of which were my own error committing an older source to the git repository originally: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Network_Scripts#Results http://projects.archlinux.org/git/?p=netcfg.git;a=summary I'm not too concerned about the remaining hardware, they're generally less common -- not that they're not important -- but they should work already, and probably don't work with the existing netcfg anyway. Thomas: That patch for initscripts I sent last time should still work, it's re-attached. James

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] bash 3.2.025-4
by Aaron Griffin 04 Dec '07

04 Dec '07

This is a quick one - please sign off as soon as possible. The current package does NOT contain /etc/profile This cripples newly installed systems. It will, right now, give you a "/etc/profile exists" error. I don't know a way around this... if anyone has a suggestion, that'd be great, but right now we have a big fat error on freshly installed systems. In testing for i686
