php-legacy--8.1.23-2 unable to load apcu.so
by Uwe Sauter 16 Oct '23

16 Oct '23

Hi, after upgrading php-legacy, php-legacy-fpm, php-legacy-gd, php-legacy-pgsql and php-legacy-sqlite (8.1.23-1 -> 8.1.23-2) I get the following error in the log file: php-fpm-legacy[24175]: [14-Oct-2023 17:15:49] NOTICE: PHP message: PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'apcu.so' (tried: /usr/lib/php-legacy/modules/apcu.so (/usr/lib/php-legacy/modules/apcu.so: undefined symbol: php_strlcpy), /usr/lib/php-legacy/modules/apcu.so.so (/usr/lib/php-legacy/modules/apcu.so.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)) in Unknown on line 0 Downgrading to 8.1.23-1 helped getting my server back online. Is there an upgrade to php-legacy-apcu (currently 5.1.22-6) in the pipeline that has not yet landed on the mirror I use? Does this package need to be rebuilt? Thanks, Uwe

Re: Incoming changes in JDK /JRE packages
by Richard Ullger 12 Oct '23

Hi Leonidas, Replying here as my reply to arch-dev-public was rejected. I currently have jre packages installed. When I build a package such as tuxguitar, that contains a make dependency for the jdk packages, makepkg installs the jdk packages and then removes them following the build, having been asked to do so. Going forward, I expect makepkg will install the jdk packages and uninstall the conflicting jre packages. Following the build when makepkg uninstalls the build packages, is makepkg clever enough to reinstall the jre packages, or should I just keep the jdk packages installed instead? Regards, Richard

ttf-font

Hi! When installing many packages, we are offered 8 font options, among which there is no ttf-ubuntu-font-family. This font is the best font for browsers in my opinion. Add the option to choose ttf-ubuntu-font-family too. Please... -- With respect and best regards, Mailsh.

Remove a package together with a user and a group
by mail.sh＠tuta.io 11 Oct '23

Greetings! Users and groups created when installing some packages (avahi, usbmuxd) are not deleted along with its removal. Is it related to https://archlinux.org/todo/pacman-hooks-systemd-sysuserstmpfiles/ and requires some changes? Or should I always delete them manually? -- With respect and best regards, Mailsh.

Installation image (services)
by mail.sh＠tuta.io 10 Oct '23

10 Oct '23

Hello... To improve the user experience, I suggest making the following changes to the installation image of the system. 1. Disable 'systemd-timesyncd.service' (the system time may not be set correctly on different machines; booting the main system after booting Arch Linux installation media and mounting hard disk may result in an error 'superblock last mount time is in the future'). 2. Enable 'gpm.service' and 'nftables.service'. Please... -- With respect and best regards, Mailsh.

solving file conflicts
by Erich Eckner 10 Oct '23

10 Oct '23

Hi fellow-archers, I have two packages, A and B, which both provide the same file X. Is there a way to tell pacman to ignore file X in package B, so it is installed (and updated) solely with A? My current ideas are: * repackage B (the official package), so it does not include X anymore -> tedious, feels unnecessary * change packaging of A (unofficial package), so X is now called Y -> this will break a lot of configs, because X is hooked up in many places -> I'd like to avoid this option * tell pacman to ignore X in package B (something like NoExtract - but except, that it is package specific and that it works as I need it ;-p) regards, Erich

A possible patch to apply to gnome-shell-extensions in extra-testing?
by fredbezies 08 Oct '23

08 Oct '23

Hello. I'm currently using Gnome 45 grabbed from extra-testing repository and the only bug I'm facing is that removable-drive-menu icon is not loaded. This bug is known and fixed in git. Could the patch - https://gitlab.gnome.org/fmuellner/gnome-shell-extensions/-/commit/092b2688… - be added to gnome-shell-extensions in extra-testing until a new release of this software is available? Thanks for your answers. Have a nice day. -- Frederic Bezies fredbezies(a)gmail.com

Issues with Electron Apps
by Christian 08 Oct '23

08 Oct '23

When I start electron apps I run into an error with a shared library from dav1d. Does anyone else run into this issue? ❯ electron /usr/lib/electron25/electron: error while loading shared libraries: libdav1d.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I get the error when starting an electron app itself (e.g. obsidian) or the electron command. Electron seems to link to an old version of the library: ❯ pacman -F libdav1d.so.6 ❯ pacman -F libdav1d.so.7 extra/dav1d 1.3.0-1 [installed] usr/lib/libdav1d.so.7 I tried reinstalling obsidian, electron(25), and dav1d. So my suspicion is that electron was not rebuilt for the new dav1d version. Possibly causing a problem for all election versions. Is there another package I should try reinstalling? Christian

Nextcloud 27.1.2 Update - /etc/webapps/nextcloud/.htaccess.pacnew - triggers new Admin Overview Warning
by David C. Rankin 07 Oct '23

07 Oct '23

All, The new update for Nextcloud 27.1.2 causes a new Admin Warning when the new .htaccess files is incorporated. After the update and after 'occ maintenance:update:htaccess' the following warning is triggered in the Administrative Settings Overview check that runs: There are some warnings regarding your setup. Your web server is not properly set up to resolve "/nextcloud/ocm-provider/". This is most likely related to a web server configuration that was not updated to deliver this folder directly. Please compare your configuration against the shipped rewrite rules in ".htaccess" for Apache or the provided one in the documentation for Nginx at it's documentation page ↗. On Nginx those are typically the lines starting with "location ~" that need an update. The problem seems to surround the line: RewriteRule ^ocm-provider/?$ /index.php [QSA,L] which is present in the .htaccess.pacnew, but not present in the original .htaccess. Restoring the original .htaccess fixes the issue immediately resulting in "All checks passed" Since the line "RewriteRule ^ocm-provider/?$ /index.php [QSA,L]" is above the comment stating: #### DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING ABOVE THIS LINE #### Is this an issue with the update package that needs to be fixed? I generally try to incorporate all .pacnew configs (at least go through them and migrate any changes). There are a number of changes in the new .htaccess.pacnew file above the comment line, so that leaves me questioning whether my current .htaccess is optimal even though the overview checks show "All checks passed". -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
