[arch-general] smartctl - 199 UDMA_CRC_Error_Count
by Apfelkuchen 24 Jul '15

24 Jul '15

Hey, I tested my hard drives with smartctl -a. And for 199 UDMA_CRC_Error_Count I get a raw value of 808. Should I worry about this disk? I'll post you below the whole output of smartctl -a. Someone said it could be a CRC-Failure. But I don't know exactly what this means. This is my backup drive. So it would be critical if it is something wrong with this disk. smartctl -a /dev/sdd1 smartctl 6.4 2015-06-04 r4109 [x86_64-linux-4.1.2-2-ARCH] (local build) Copyright (C) 2002-15, Bruce Allen, Christian Franke, www.smartmontools.org === START OF INFORMATION SECTION === Model Family: Seagate SV35 Device Model: ST2000VX000-1ES164 Serial Number: Z4Z1JHXZ LU WWN Device Id: 5 000c50 079dbcc19 Firmware Version: CV26 User Capacity: 2.000.398.934.016 bytes [2,00 TB] Sector Sizes: 512 bytes logical, 4096 bytes physical Rotation Rate: 7200 rpm Form Factor: 3.5 inches Device is: In smartctl database [for details use: -P show] ATA Version is: ACS-2, ACS-3 T13/2161-D revision 3b SATA Version is: SATA 3.1, 6.0 Gb/s (current: 6.0 Gb/s) Local Time is: Fri Jul 24 12:39:16 2015 CEST SMART support is: Available - device has SMART capability.

[arch-general] I am looking for the squid package maintainer.
by Eliezer Croitoru 23 Jul '15

23 Jul '15

Hey, I am looking for the squid package maintainer. I have been using the last built of squid 3.5.6 and it is missing rock cache_dir. It is considered to be stable enough for public use and testing. The addition of rock cache_dir doesn't affect any current installations or configuration. How can I get a hold of the package maintainer? Eliezer

[arch-general] [Q] Package all sources in openjdk8-src as Fedora does
by Konstantin Gribov 23 Jul '15

23 Jul '15

As I saw in fedora openjdk rpm, they bundle non-public java sources (like packages in sun, jdk etc). It's quite useful for debugging when low-level jdk parts involved, so I propose this patch (based on java8-openjdk 8.u51-1). File all-sources.patch contains patch for ${srcdir}/jdk-${_repo_ver}/make/CreateJars.gmk to include all sources instead of whitelisted ones. PKGBUILD.patch adds all-sources.patch to sources, its checksum and apply it in prepare phase. -- Best regards, Konstantin Gribov

[arch-general] A small and special Arch Linux distro
by feel.squally 22 Jul '15

22 Jul '15

Hi folks, Few months ago I started an Arch Linux related open source project and, now that is in a stable version and it has got an interesting popularity, I wanted to announce it in the Arch Linux community. The project website is: http://fsquillace.github.io/junest-site/index.html The github page is: https://github.com/fsquillace/junest The JuNest project consists on a tiny distro Arch Linux based that can run upon any already existing GNU/Linux distros as a sandbox. In the sandbox you can install packages and run programs without any root access. There are more functionalities that are documented in the website such as possibilities to run the image on different architectures and so on. The intent of JuNest is, of course, not to substitute Arch Linux but to have an Arch Linux environment everywhere is needed. Any feedback and contribution are really welcome :) Thank you, Filippo

[arch-general] sudo 1.8.14.p2-1 breaks gksudo

Hi, after upgrading sudo today, gksudo stopped working. Downgrading sudo fixed the issue.

Any ideas, before I file a bug report? Regards, Ralf

[arch-general] Arch Linux trademark and docker images
by Christoph Seitz 21 Jul '15

21 Jul '15

Hi there, I just stumbled on the following [1] blog post, which says that shipping ubuntu docker images with modifications (e.g. web app, etc.) might be a violation of trademarks. I was wondering wether this also applies to arch linux, since the trademark policy [2] is derived from ubuntu somehow. Especially if you use aur packages inside the container, the trademark policy insists on a trademark license. I found some packages [3] that include aur packages. The FSF started a dialog with Canonical in order to allow such customization based on ubuntu. [4] Am I right with my assumption, that docker images with aur packages need a trademark license? Would it be a possibility to change the policy in oder to allow such works as docker images with aur packages?

[arch-general] Tuxguitar: documentation and SWT/GTK
by Alan E. Davis 21 Jul '15

21 Jul '15

I have stumbled. Archlinux does almost everything to perfection, so I am concerned I may have erred in the installation of tuxguitar. I am uisng a 64 bit, a relatively mature installation with many packages installed, including many from AUR. Tux guitar works well, so far; however, when trying to access Documentation through "Help>Documentation" Tuxguitar hangs. I've spent some hours researching this problem, and have gotten nowhere. Every google search I make leads one to mention of SWT, and apparently the most up to date 4.2 version, and some issue regarding gtk. The following messages are received: (TuxGuitar:10351): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: cannot register existing type 'GtkWi dget' (TuxGuitar:10351): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: cannot add class private field to in valid type '<invalid>' (TuxGuitar:10351): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: cannot add private field to invalid (non-instantiatable) type '<invalid>' (TuxGuitar:10351): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_type_add_interface_static: assert ion 'G_TYPE_IS_INSTANTIATABLE (instance_type)' failed (TuxGuitar:10351): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: cannot register existing type 'GtkBu ildable' (TuxGuitar:10351): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_type_interface_add_prerequisite: assertion 'G_TYPE_IS_INTERFACE (interface_type)' failed (TuxGuitar:10351): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_once_init_leave: assertion 'result != 0' failed (TuxGuitar:10351): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_type_add_interface_static: assert ion 'G_TYPE_IS_INSTANTIATABLE (instance_type)' failed (TuxGuitar:10351): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_type_register_static: assertion ' parent_type > 0' failed (TuxGuitar:10351): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: cannot add private field to invalid (non-instantiatable) type '<invalid>' Also interesting, in the "About" screen, is the following information: This product include third party libraries: -> SWT (Standard Widget Toolkit): http://www.eclipse.org/swt/ -> iText (Free Java-PDF library): http://www.lowagie.com/iText/ The documentation is pretty good, in general, on the Archlinux Wiki. I could not find much useful information regarding this problem with Tuxguitar with respect to Archlinux, even there. Can someone shed some light, or, better still, suggest a way to solve this problem. I suppose I can try to get a PDF of the docs, and use that.
