[arch-general] SSL I/O error with gmail
by Aurko Roy 12 Aug '12

12 Aug '12

Hello all, I am trying to get my gmail to work with mutt but keep getting this error: "SSL failed: I/O error". I then tried to connect to imap.gmail.com with openssl ($openssl s_client -connect imap.mail.me.com:993 and also $openssl s_client -connect imap.mail.me.com:993 -CApath /etc/ssl/certs/) both of which give the following: CONNECTED(00000003) 140098731194024:error:140790E5:SSL routines:SSL23_WRITE:ssl handshake failure:s23_lib.c:177: --- no peer certificate available --- No client certificate CA names sent --- SSL handshake has read 0 bytes and written 228 bytes --- New, (NONE), Cipher is (NONE) Secure Renegotiation IS NOT supported Compression: NONE Expansion: NONE --- This seems to be a peculiar problem only with gmail as I can successfully connect to icloud's imap server (imap.mail.me.com) without any problems. Does anybody have a clue what could be the problem? TIA -- Aurko Roy GPG key: 0x20C5BC31 Fingerprint:76B4 9677 15BE 731D 1949 85BA 2A31 B442 20C5 BC31

[arch-general] Why is scribus installing gimp-light-2.6.11?
by David C. Rankin 12 Aug '12

12 Aug '12

Guys, The latest scribus update attempts to install gimp-light 2.6.11 (not 2.6.12?) as a dependency for the update. This fails on my box because I created a gimp26 package which is gimp 2.6.12. Is the 'gimp-light' being pulled in my scribus a full gimp 2.6 install? If it is, I'm happy to dump my package and just use it. Anybody know more about this new 'gimp-light' package that scribus wants? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

[arch-general] systemd fsck

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, I just moved my desktop to systemd, and saw a couple things as I booted it for the first time: 1) It is *fast*. Let me say that again. It is *fast*. I have never seen a system come up this fast. Critics of systemd might want to consider that. 2) But I did notice an error that worried me--just because it looks worrying--as it came up: Aug 09 13:34:36 graton systemd-fsck[270]: /dev/sda3 is mounted.

[arch-general] KDE and plasma-desktop CPU usage
by Shridhar Daithankar 11 Aug '12

11 Aug '12

Hello, I recently formatted an acer netbook with intel atom processor, 32 bit, 1.66GHz/1GB RAM, with arch. I installed kde on it, everything went as expected. However when I log in with a normal user, the KDE start-up completes but the splash screen is stuck. plasma-desktop process is eating 100% CPU. Killing and restarting the process does not help. I think the machine is dual core, /proc/cpuinfo shows two cores but might be hyper-threaded, am not sure. I can hit Alt-F2, get a krunner prompt and run applications like konsole but the desktop remain unavailable. I had just started dbus from rc.conf and created a user as follows # useradd -m -g users -G audio,video shridhar And log-in from kdm. Google is not much of help. Any suggestions before I report the bug upstream? -- Regards Shridhar

[arch-general] When will LibreOffice 3.6 proposed ?
by fredbezies 11 Aug '12

11 Aug '12

Hello. I know, archlinux is really quick to package software, so I was wondering when LibreOffice 3.6 will be proposed, at least on testing ? I grabbed PKGBUILD from abs, and tweaked .36 version to build both translations (done first) and then core package (currently working on LibO Writer after something like 4 hours on my AMD Athlon X2-215, which is now something like 2 years old). Thanks for any infos. Have a good week-end. -- Frederic Bezies fredbezies(a)gmail.com

[arch-general] Brasero cannot create mp3 based cds ?
by fredbezies 11 Aug '12

11 Aug '12

Hello. I faced a weird bug with Brasero. Yesterday, I wanted to convert and burn mp3 to a CD. I got an error box saying : "Name of mp3 file" could not be opened "Name of mp3 file" is not suitable for audio or video media I had to use k3b. By the way, only mp3 are not usable. Flac files are ok. Any ideas ? Thanks. -- Frederic Bezies fredbezies(a)gmail.com

[arch-general] root $PATH via "su - -c mc" ??
by Joe(theWordy)Philbrook 10 Aug '12

10 Aug '12

OK so I guess /root/.bash_profile wouldn't be read by a script generated login shell that feeds "su - -c mc" to the -e option of a "konsole" command, since it's not considered an "interactive" login... Which explains why the conditional PATH command I routinely put in my .bash_profile scripts (not in .bashrc to prevent it being appended multiple times): if [ -d ~/bin ] ; then PATH="${PATH}":~/bin fi doesn't add "/root/bin" to the default path of the resulting "root" mc session in the resulting konsole window, like it does with a console root login... IE: /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/bin/core_perl:/root/bin But since even a generic user's default system PATH variable includes the "sbin" directories... IE: /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/bin/core_perl Why would the root mc shell resulting from the scripted "su - -c mc" wind up with a PATH variable containing only: /usr/ucb:/bin:/usr/bin:/etc ??? I know I can fix this by defining root's path in root's .bashrc, but I'd have to give up on conditionally adding ~/bin in .bash_profile as every subshell would overwrite it with the .bashrc assignment... Suggestions anyone??? -- | ~^~ ~^~ | <?> <?> Joe (theWordy) Philbrook | ^ J(tWdy)P | \___/ <<jtwdyp(a)ttlc.net>>

Incidentally it also causes ext2 /boot to be unbootable, without a doubt it does. Dave's install scripts work great easiest install I've ever done, however it won't boot off of ext2 with syslinux.

[arch-general] Justin's package signing key expired

Just a heads up: Justin Davis' key expired today so pacman won't be able to verify/install some perl packages[1] until they have been resigned or rebuilt. [1]: https://www.archlinux.org/packages/?packager=juster -- Florian Pritz
