[arch-general] SSH access to Arch machines for testing
by Jeffrey Walton 26 Jan '17

26 Jan '17

Hi Everyone, Does Arch make machines available for testing software? (I'm interested in something like the GCC compile farm) If so, how do we sign up? Thanks in advance. Jeff

[arch-general] Pacman: Remove unneded dependencies
by L. Rose 24 Jan '17

24 Jan '17

Hi, I know, this is probably a very common question, but I couldn't find any information on the pacman wiki article about that, so I have to ask. How can I uninstall all packages on my system, which have been installed as a dependency, and aren't needed any longer? (Because I've uninstalled the dependent package or because the dependent package no longer depends on that dependency) I've read about pacman -Qe, but this lists packages I've explicitly installed and don't want to remove. And please, don't just point to the wiki article, I've checked that already. Thanks in advance, Lukas

Re: [arch-general] Hibernation not working

I had the same issue with my laptop some days ago. At the moment it seems to be working most times though, no idea why. I only made some seemingly unrelated changes in BIOS settings (fan speed, battery charging). The screen went blank, came back a second (as it usually does when about to hibernate) and went blank again. After that the laptop would still not turn off until the battery was fully drained. If I turned it off manually after the screen went blank the second time, however, it would later still resume all right. I guess it's something about triggering the correct acpi-event for poweroff or something.

[arch-general] Package signing on soyuz
by Jerome Leclanche 19 Jan '17

19 Jan '17

What is the current intended way to sign packages on the pkgbuild.com server? I spent the past day setting up agent forwarding (https://wiki.gnupg.org/AgentForwarding) for it. Had a lot of trouble setting it up due to systemd being seemingly overzealous about the gpg-agent socket. I have it working now, for myself, but wondering if anyone else is using it or if everybody is just signing locally. J. Leclanche

[arch-general] arch-security: CVE and ASA wiki logging
by G. Schlisio 17 Jan '17

17 Jan '17

Hi all, I appreciate the service of our valued Arch CVE Monitoring Team a lot. Since new year there are no more CVEs and ASAs logged on the respective Wiki pages [0] and [1], although ASAs are (thankfully!) still issued to arch-security. Is there a reason for discontinuing logging to the well-known wiki pages e.g. did logging move to another location, or is the security team in need of help keeping up with the work? Please let us know! Thankyou in advance Georg [0] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/CVE [1] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Security_Advisories

[arch-general] uwsgi-2.0.14-15 segfaults with php plugin
by David Runge 17 Jan '17

17 Jan '17

Hey all, ran into the issue, that after updating from uwsgi 2.0.14-1 to uwsgi 2.0.14-5 (php plugin of the same version), all php based webapps make uwsgi segfault (tested with wordpress and stikked)! Something like the below will happen (including after reboot): Jan 17 16:24:20 frqrec systemd[1]: Starting uWSGI service unit...

Reverting back to uwsgi 2.0.14-1 fixes the problem (after restarting the socket, that activates the webapp). As a sidenote: I'm using the hardening and socket activation options as explained here, which shouldn't have much of an effect on the uwsgi itself though): https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/UWSGI#Socket_activation https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/UWSGI#Hardening_uWSGI Has anyone had the same issue? I can't seem to find out, what has changed between revision 1 and 5 or if it needs another rebuild. Best, David -- https://sleepmap.de

Re: [arch-general] Old wine and intel graphics problem

Date: Sun, 15 Jan 2017 14:35:42 +0100 From: LoneVVolf >>No one has tested LI2 interlude with a version past 1.5.0, but that doesn't mean it will fail with later versions . >> Just try running it with latest wine, there's a big chance it will work. No one has tested, because game fail to start without any output in terminal. Of course winedebug += all shows wall of text, but i didnt see any hook to move forward. I wrote on server forum, that people play on ubuntu (with 1.5.0) as well. But i dont know what kind of graphics card they are using. So this is a reason, that im trying run game on 1.5.0. I know that problem can be in libgcrypt or something like that. There is a lot workarounds to steam with this error. Can downgrade libgcrypt help with it? How far you should go back? But i know that isnt safe. Regards eerozeteen
