[arch-dev-public] Updating packages on our servers
Hi all, I'd like to update our servers this weekend. Does anybody want to join? Especially the python -> pathon2 transition scares me so I am in need of someone familiar with python and the custom scripts we use (our django website, repo-read etc.) I'll list the packages to be upgraded on each server so please have a look and tell me if you'd expect any other problems. Maybe someone wants to update the xen kernel stuff while we are at it. At least the openssl update is security related. pierre@gerolde ~ % pacman -Qu abs 2.3.4.1-1 apr-util 1.3.9-4 bash 4.1.007-1 bash-completion 1.2-1 binutils 2.20.1-3 bzip2 1.0.5-5 coreutils 8.5-2 ctags 5.8-1 curl 7.21.1-1 db 4.8.26-2 dialog 1.1_20100428-1 django 1.2.3-1 elfutils 0.148-1 fakeroot 1.14.4-2 file 5.04-2 filesystem 2010.07-1 findutils 4.4.2-2 freetype2 2.4.2-1 gawk 3.1.8-1 gcc 4.5.1-1 gcc-libs 4.5.1-1 gdb 7.2-1 git 1.7.2.3-2 glib2 2.24.2-1 glibc 2.12.1-1 gpm 1.20.6-5 grep 2.6.3-1 gzip 1.4-1 heimdal 1.3.3-1 initscripts 2010.07-1 iotop 0.4.1-1 iproute2 2.6.35-3 jfsutils 1.1.14-1 kernel26 2.6.35.4-2 less 436-1 libarchive 2.8.4-1 libevent 1.4.14b-1 libldap 2.4.22-1 libmysqlclient 5.1.50-1 libpng 1.4.3-1 libsasl 2.1.23-4 libtool 2.2.10-3 libusb 0.1.12-4 libxml2 2.7.7-1 libxslt 1.1.26-1 lighttpd 1.4.28-2 linux-firmware 20100807-1 logrotate 3.7.8-1 lsof 4.83-1 lzo2 2.03-1 man-db 2.5.7-1 man-pages 3.26-1 mlocate 0.22.4-2 mpfr 3.0.0-2 mysql-clients 5.1.50-1 mysql-python 1.2.3c1-2 nano 2.2.5-1 ncurses 5.7-3 openssl 1.0.0.a-3 pam 1.1.1-1 pcre 8.10-1 perl 5.12.1-2 postfix 2.7.1-1 postgresql-libs 8.4.4-5 procps 3.2.8-1 python 2.6.5-3 python-memcached 1.45-1 python-pip 0.8.1-1 python-south 0.7.2-2 python-virtualenv 1.4.9-1 readline 6.1.002-1 screen 4.0.3-8 sed 4.2.1-2 sqlite3 3.7.2-1 subversion 1.6.9-5 sysvinit 2.86-5 tar 1.23-3 texinfo 4.13a-4 tzdata 2010l-1 udev 162-1 usbutils 0.90-1 vim 7.3.3-1 vim-runtime 7.3.3-1 which 2.20-3 xdelta 1.1.4-2 xinetd 2.3.14-5 xz 4.999.9beta_174_g41bc-1 pierre@gerolde ~ % pacman -Qm joe 3.7-2 postfix-policyd-spf-perl 2.007-1 setuptools 0.6c11-2 webalizer 2.21-2 pierre@gudrun ~ % pacman -Qu apache 2.2.16-1 apr-util 1.3.9-4 bash 4.1.007-1 bash-completion 1.2-1 binutils 2.20.1-3 bzip2 1.0.5-5 coreutils 8.5-2 curl 7.21.1-1 db 4.8.26-2 dialog 1.1_20100428-1 django 1.2.3-1 elfutils 0.148-1 file 5.04-2 filesystem 2010.07-1 findutils 4.4.2-2 freetype2 2.4.2-1 gawk 3.1.8-1 gcc-libs 4.5.1-1 git 1.7.2.3-2 glib2 2.24.2-1 glibc 2.12.1-1 gpm 1.20.6-5 grep 2.6.3-1 gzip 1.4-1 heimdal 1.3.3-1 initscripts 2010.07-1 iotop 0.4.1-1 jfsutils 1.1.14-1 kernel26 2.6.35.4-2 less 436-1 libarchive 2.8.4-1 libevent 1.4.14b-1 libldap 2.4.22-1 libmemcached 0.43-1 libmysqlclient 5.1.50-1 libpng 1.4.3-1 libsasl 2.1.23-4 libtasn1 2.6-1 libtool 2.2.10-3 libusb 0.1.12-4 libxml2 2.7.7-1 linux-firmware 20100807-1 logrotate 3.7.8-1 lsof 4.83-1 lzo2 2.03-1 mailman 2.1.11-2 man-db 2.5.7-1 man-pages 3.26-1 mlocate 0.22.4-2 mod_wsgi 3.2-1 mysql 5.1.50-1 mysql-clients 5.1.50-1 mysql-python 1.2.3c1-2 nano 2.2.5-1 ncurses 5.7-3 openssl 1.0.0.a-3 pam 1.1.1-1 patch 2.6.1-1 pcre 8.10-1 perl 5.12.1-2 php 5.3.3-1 php-apc 3.1.4-1 php-cgi 5.3.3-1 php-mcrypt 5.3.3-1 postfix 2.7.1-1 postgresql-libs 8.4.4-5 procps 3.2.8-1 python 2.6.5-3 python-flup 1.0.2-1 python-memcached 1.45-1 python-south 0.7.2-2 readline 6.1.002-1 screen 4.0.3-8 sed 4.2.1-2 sqlite3 3.7.2-1 subversion 1.6.9-5 sysvinit 2.86-5 tar 1.23-3 texinfo 4.13a-4 tzdata 2010l-1 udev 162-1 usbutils 0.90-1 vim 7.3.3-1 vim-runtime 7.3.3-1 which 2.20-3 xinetd 2.3.14-5 xz 4.999.9beta_174_g41bc-1 pierre@gudrun ~ % pacman -Qm db4.5 4.5.20-2 joe 3.7-2 python24 2.4.6-3 setuptools 0.6c11-2 -- Pierre Schmitz, https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre

I'll list the packages to be upgraded on each server so please have a look and tell me if you'd expect any other problems. Maybe someone wants to update the xen kernel stuff while we are at it. At least the openssl update is security related.
The scariest thing on that list for me is mailman. :) With that said, I should be around and can help at some point, namely with the python website/database/etc stuff you mentioned; I can do some cleanup at that time as well as this stuff is now virtualenv-ed and we don't necessarily need to install all of the packages on the server. -Dan

Everybody seems to hate mailman. Andy is updating the package right now. So if this is the last message you read you'll know who is to blame. Thomas also had this weird idea of making a backup before.

Thomas suggested something about 12 UTC. That might be quite early for you :-). Would a simple -Syu break django or could you do your cleanups afterwards? -- Pierre Schmitz, https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre

Rebuilding a version for an old python then? This is tied to the 2.7 upgrade, no?

Would a simple -Syu break django or could you do your cleanups
afterwards? Yes it would, unfortunately. :/ Any major version bump blows things up. If you start with gerolde, things should? be OK there, gudrun is where the issues will likely come up.

What about the cronjobs on gerolde that are run by archweb? Don't they need django, too? -- Pierre Schmitz, https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre

They don't run in a virtualenv
