Hi all,

I've cleaned up testing a bit: - moved xulrunner/seamonkey/firefox and friends to extra. This is part of the /usr move - moved gcc to core/extra, cleaned up gfortran and objc packages from extra - moved Xorg and friends from testing to extra (requested signoff, no response after request, no bugreports for 2 weeks). - removed duplicate and some old packages from testing

At this moment we have some projects in testing: - perl update - postgresql update - kernel26 update - some core signoffs

Please don't stuff new big projects in testing before we have the perl and postgresql migration done. We can wait a while before we start freaking out on GNUTLS 2.2 for example.

The perl and modules update is pretty much done except for some problem modules and minor changes to the core package: - perl-tk 804.027 won't build. There is an "unauthorized" 804.028 ( http://search.cpan.org/~srezic/Tk-804.028/ ) I might use this. - mod_perl won't build. Need to wait for next perl or mod_perl release - zim segfaults when run. There seems to be a bug in the perl<->C interfacing in the Gtk2::* modules. Interestingly running it under the perl debugger works... - make sure cpan/cpanplus installs do the right thing - need to set up $PATH and create separate bin dirs for the three sets of directories. Something like /usr/bin/core_perl, /usr/bin/vendor_perl, etc. Or /usr/core/bin, /usr/bin/perl/core. I'm interested in opinions. This is needed so three versions of Archive::Tar can be installed and there are no file conflicts with /usr/bin/ptardiff. k -- K. Piche

Hey Jan, thanks for this. I started a thread a while back about the lots-of-stuff-in-testing, so this helps.

I did, however, notice this on the forums just now: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=43579

What'd we miss? I know very little about the underpinnings of xulrunner.
