[arch-general] AUR upload
by Nicolas Bigaouette 07 Aug '09

07 Aug '09

Hi all! I'm trying to update a PKGBUILD of mine in aur[1], but I get an empty page a minute or so after clicking submit and nothing is updated... Am I forgetting something?? The PKGBUILD is relatively simple[2]. I even simplified it when bumping the version. namcap does not report anything on it either... Is AUR broken or am I missing something?? Thanx!

[arch-general] Question about split packages
by Magnus Therning 07 Aug '09

07 Aug '09

I've been playing around with split packages and it's a nice feature, it'll make some packaging tasks a lot easier. Anyway, there's one thing I can't find out, is it possible to have one package depend on another one that's built from the same sources? Basically something like this: pkgname=('foo' 'bar') ... build () { ... } package_foo () { ... } package_bar () { depends=('foo') ... } /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe

[arch-general] kdelibs3-3.5.10-6 -> rosegarden fails to start
by Axel Müller 07 Aug '09

07 Aug '09

After the update of kdelibs3 from 3.5.10-5 to 3.5.10-6 rosegarden doesn't start anymore and outputs the message "rosegarden: error while loading shared libraries: libkdecore.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory". Recompiling Rosegarden didn't do the trick, downgrading kdelibs3 does. The file '/opt/kde/lib/libkdecore.so.4' is present in both versions of kdelibs3. So is this a problem in kdelibs3-3.5.10-6 or does rosegarden in some way has to be fixed? This is on x86_64.

[arch-general] Firefox Fullscreen Fix
by Andrei Thorp 07 Aug '09

07 Aug '09

Hello, With the latest Firefox (3.5) with closed Nvidia drivers providing libGL, Firefox (or something) segfaults whenever you try to fullscreen a flash video (try youtube). Searching around, I've found a fix: simply export this in your environment: export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libGL.so.1 You can just put this in your zsh/bash/whatever profile/config, or make a wrapper script for firefox or something. I'm contemplating filing a bug with us. Do you guys think it's worth doing? Is it with us? Cheers, -Andrei "Garoth" Thorp

[arch-general] OOo Calc max rows
by Manne Merak 07 Aug '09

07 Aug '09

Hi, I have Calc 3.1.1 installed on two separate machines, one Arch and other openSUSE10.3 (both from their respective repos, not from openoffice.org). Both have a maximum row count of 1048576? I wasn't aware that the 65536 limit was increased; I cannot find anything at openoffice.org about this feature? Problem is that some (small) sheets now save to 100Meg files? Obviously still some bugs left. Anyone also have 1048576 rows in Calc 3.1.1? Manne

[arch-general] autogen.sh now fails building radeonhd - m4_pattern_allow -- how?
by David C. Rankin 06 Aug '09

06 Aug '09

Listmates, I have been working with the radeonhd folks for several months testing the radeonhd driver. I have probably built the driver 50 times over that period. In the past few days, something changed so I can no longer run the autogen.sh script. The error is: 09:46 alchemy:~/archlinux/apps/radeonhd> sh autogen-autoconf.sh --prefix=/usr autoreconf: Entering directory `.' autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Gettext autoreconf: running: aclocal /usr/share/aclocal/progsreiserfs.m4:13: warning: underquoted definition of AC_CHECK_LIBREISERFS /usr/share/aclocal/progsreiserfs.m4:13: run info '(automake)Extending aclocal' /usr/share/aclocal/progsreiserfs.m4:13: or see http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Extending-aclocal autoreconf: configure.ac: tracing autoreconf: running: libtoolize --copy libtoolize: Consider adding `AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR([m4])' to configure.ac and libtoolize: rerunning libtoolize, to keep the correct libtool macros in-tree. libtoolize: Consider adding `-I m4' to ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS in Makefile.am. /usr/share/aclocal/progsreiserfs.m4:13: warning: underquoted definition of AC_CHECK_LIBREISERFS /usr/share/aclocal/progsreiserfs.m4:13: run info '(automake)Extending aclocal' /usr/share/aclocal/progsreiserfs.m4:13: or see http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Extending-aclocal autoreconf: running: /usr/bin/autoconf configure:1583: error: possibly undefined macro: _m4_text_wrap_word If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow. See the Autoconf documentation. autoreconf: /usr/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1 I have searched and I can't figure out what the error is. The radeonhd source is from: git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-radeonhd radeonhd/ The simple autogen.sh script is: #! /bin/sh srcdir=`dirname "$0"` test -z "$srcdir" && srcdir=. ORIGDIR=`pwd` cd "$srcdir"; rm -rf autom4te.cache autoreconf -v --install || exit 1 cd "$ORIGDIR" || exit $? "$srcdir"/configure --enable-maintainer-mode "$@" Anybody have any idea what I'm doing wrong?? I have the needed macro packages installed: m4 1.4.13-1 xorg-util-macros 1.2.2-1 -- David C.
