php-legacy-mongodb-2.0.0-1 => Fatal error: ... BSONArray.php on line 74

Arch devs, After update tonight of php-legacy-mongodb-2.0.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst, accessing mongodb through PHP results in the error: [Sat Apr 12 01:25:20.286158 2025] [php:error] [pid 685:tid 685] [client 192.168.6.224:53078] PHP Fatal error: Declaration of MongoDB\\Model\\BSONArray::bsonSerialize() must be compatible with MongoDB\\BSON\\Serializable::bsonSerialize(): stdClass|MongoDB\\BSON\\Document|MongoDB\\BSON\\PackedArray|array in /srv/http/vendor/mongodb/mongodb/src/Model/BSONArray.php on line 74, referer: https://2pi.3111skyline.com/tmp/db/jnl-grid/ This has never happened before and it is pointing to one of the package files. I updated all composer mongodb/mongodb files thinking that may help. It didn't. I also built php-legacy-mongodb from: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/php-mongodb/-/tre… And downgraded, restarted httpd and everything works fine again. New bug or is there some known break with backwards compatibility? The changelog on Serializable::bsonSerialize makes no mention of a break: https://www.php.net/manual/en/mongodb-bson-serializable.bsonserialize.php -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Trying to use "Preview" on bbs.archlinux.org - times out?
by David C. Rankin 20 Mar '25

20 Mar '25

All, I've never had an issue with this, but earlier today attempting to ask https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=2232737 I always use "Preview" to verity formatting before submitting. However, today choosing "Preview" resulted in a timeout and Page Not Found - Try Again? if Firefox. So I did try several times to create a preview and all times I got nothing back. Submitting the question worked fine, so it looks like there was something up with the "Preview" feature. Does anyone have any further information about that? If it is an issue, is a bug report wanted? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Screen update / screen bug
by Jeanette C. 05 Mar '25

Hey hey, I wondered about this bug: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/screen/-/issues/2 https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?66209 As far as I understand a solution for this issue is known, a different compilation switch. Does anyone know what the plans for an update/fix are? Alternatively, can someone suggest a workaround for using -X in scripts?

about the uutils-coreutils package

Hey, I noticed something about the uutils-coreutils package in the extra repo. It isn't marked as conflicting or providing the coreutils package at all. Is this a problem at all? Best wishes, Leah

/usr/bin/xml2-config - missing in libxml2 2.13.6-2?
by David C. Rankin 20 Feb '25

20 Feb '25

Devs, Just update to libxml2 2.13.6-2 and found that the /usr/bin/xml2-config file is missing? This breaks many configure scripts. Listing the package contents, the man-page for it is still there, but not the executable: libxml2 /usr/share/man/man1/xml2-config.1.gz It was present in libxml2-2.13.5-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst, but not in libxml2-2.13.6-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst. Is this an oversight or intentional. If intentional, how best to change configure scripts that use it. What other functionality will take its place? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

i915 LSPCON init failed bug -- is back
by David C. Rankin 20 Feb '25

20 Feb '25

All, The reboot issue with the new install on the HP ProOne 600 (i5-8500) is a bug: [drm:intel_dp_detect [i915]] *ERROR* LSPCON init failed on port D https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/i915/kernel/-/issues/4458 Looks like we are just stuck until it is fixed. At least now we know the cause (most likely). This was fixed in 5.14.7 and now is back. So we will see when a fix comes through. A least I know I'm not crazy -- yet... -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Arch iso install failure HP ProOne 600 UEFI - Triggering uevents... - then hangs?
by David C. Rankin 18 Feb '25

18 Feb '25

All, I thought I'd improve a HP ProOne 600 (i5 8500) with a fresh Arch install. Disabled secure boot per https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Installation_guide, and booted the Arch 2025-02-01 install iso burned to usb with dd per the https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/USB_flash_installation_medium. I get the boot menu and choose the default (first) option. I then get a couple of errors (3 total, all the same except for the file extensions .BCL, .BCM and .BQC: ACPI BIOS Error (bug): Faiure creating named object [\_SB.PCI0.G?.BCL] (and .BCM and .BQC), AE_ALREADY_EXISTS (20240827/dsw-load2-326) ACPI Error: AE_ALREADY_EXISTS, During name lookup/catalog (202408???ject-220) I'm not sure what character(s) are where I have the "?" above, that was cut off my picture on the left of the screen. The installer then tries to boot (looks like first few chars guessed): Starting early hook [udev] Loading systemd-udevd version 257-2-2-arch Starting early hook [archiso_pxe_ndb] Starting hook [udev] Triggering uevents... (hangs) The "Starting early hook [archiso_pxe_ndb]" seems to indicate it's trying to boot via pxe instead of from usb?? This is my first new install in a long time. Does anything stand out? Is there a trick to make this work? Any help appreciated. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Note: pacstrap -K /mnt ... failed with corrupt signatures, --refresh-keys cured gromit allowing new keyring install
by David C. Rankin 17 Feb '25

17 Feb '25

Devs, Just a note on the current 2025-02-01 install iso. On pacstrap -K /mnt all packages had corrupt signatures. pacman-key --init was run but the failures continued. pacman -Sy archlinux-keyring failed due to corrupt gromit key/signature. Running pacman-key --refresh-keys fixed gromit's key allowing pacman -Sy archlinux-keyring to succeed. Finally, then pacstrap -K succeeded. I'm not sure if this was a hiccup or generic problem with the keyring on the installer. Thought I would pass it along in case it needs fixing. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Linux-6.12.10.arch1-1 causes FAT32 mount failure
by J. Gerhards 29 Jan '25

29 Jan '25

Hello all, after upgrading my kernel (standard linux package) to 6.12.10.arch1-1, my computer would now only boot into the systemd emergency shell. After further inspection, I found out this was caused by the kernel failing to mount my EFI system partition which caused systemd to no longer be able to reach local-fs.target[0]. This was easily confirmed by commenting out the line in my /etc/fstab after which the system would boot semi-correctly. Furthermore the kernel does not appear to actually be 6.12.10 but 6.12.9 as indicated by /proc/version and the journal[1]. I first thought this was an error and that pacman just didn't upgrade the package correctly, but after reinstalling it (signature matched), manually deleting the old kernel, regenerating the initramfs and verifying that pacman had actually downloaded the newest version, I still got the same result. I really have no idea of how I would fix this, since the kernel is supposed to have FAT32 support by default so I just downgraded linux and linux-headers back to 6.12.9.arch1-1 and everything is working again. Cheers J. Gerhards [0] snippet of the journal: mount[572]: mount: /efi: unknown filesystem type 'vfat'. mount[572]: dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call. systemd[1]: efi.mount: Mount process exited, code=exited, status=32/n/a systemd[1]: efi.mount: Failed with result 'exit-code'. systemd[1]: Failed to mount /efi. systemd[1]: Dependency failed for Local File Systems. systemd[1]: local-fs.target: Job local-fs.target/start failed with result 'dependency'. systemd[1]: local-fs.target: Triggering OnFailure= dependencies.
