[arch-general] vps2arch - The fastest way to convert a VPS to Arch Linux!
by Timothy M. Redaelli 05 Jul '15

05 Jul '15

Hi, I wrote a simple script that allows you to convert (almost) any VPS to Arch Linux. The procedure is very simple, as you an see on a video posted by jx47 (http://jx47.de/posts/20150627_vps2arch.html). Just do: # wget git.io/vps2arch # chmod +x # ./vps2arch With the latest version of the script you can also specify mirrors with the -m option, network system (systemd-networkd, netctl) with -n option and the bootloader to be installed (grub, syslinux). OpenVZ is partially supported, because it doesn't work on systemd 220+ and it will enforce systemd 219. It also enforce netctl as networking system and no bootloader (of course). Please test and report! https://github.com/drizzt/vps2arch -- Timothy M. Redaelli Arch Linux Trusted User

[arch-general] XMMS2 error in latest version with equalizer build
by Storm Dragon 02 Jul '15

02 Jul '15

Hi, when I upgraded XMMS2 today the preamp stopped working. I use it for a soft volume affect. So I went into the #xmms2 channel on freenode, and after a bit it was discovered that one of the plugins didn't build right. Here's the bit of the conversation: < vdust> 14:35:28 ERROR: ../src/xmms/plugin.c:375: Failed to open plugin /usr/lib/xmms2/libxmms_equalizer.so: /usr/lib/xmms2/libxmms_equalizer.so: undefined symbol: iir < vdust> seems like there is an issue with the plugin build. < vdust> It should be reported to arch linux Is this the correct place to report this, or should it do it somewhere else?

Storm Dragon, Looks like you are just missing whichever component of the plugin that contains iir. I'd try and re download then rebuild the plugin. If they offer a hash of it you may want to check it against whatever archive you downloaded before reinstalling. If none of that works then I recommend looking for missing dependencies, because that, in my experience with linux, is the most common solution to the issue that you seem to be having here. Also I grabbed your key so if you need anything else, email me encrypted like. Best of luck, Luna This is a reply to: Hi, when I upgraded XMMS2 today the preamp stopped working. I use it for a soft volume affect. So I went into the #xmms2 channel on freenode, and after a bit it was discovered that one of the plugins didn't build right. Here's the bit of the conversation: < vdust> 14:35:28 ERROR: ../src/xmms/plugin.c:375: Failed to open plugin /usr/lib/xmms2/libxmms_equalizer.so: /usr/lib/xmms2/libxmms_equalizer.so: undefined symbol: iir < vdust> seems like there is an issue with the plugin build. < vdust> It should be reported to arch linux Is this the correct place to report this, or should it do it somewhere else?

[arch-general] Question on removing pacman keys (and adding new ones)
by Sebastian Pipping 25 Jun '15

25 Jun '15

Hi there! In relation to making virtual machine images of Arch I noticed that sharing images with pacman keys inside would enable two systems to present spoofed packages to the other unnoticed. True? It seems like a good idea to remove and re-add pacman keys specific to each system again, later. I wonder how to best remove the system-specific keys (not secure deletion, just not breaking the system) and how (more than when) to re-add new ones to the existing system to get it back to fully functional. Any ideas? Many thanks in advance, best, Sebastian

[arch-general] Generating Arch OpenStack images
by Sebastian Pipping 24 Jun '15

24 Jun '15

Hi! TL;DR: Bullet-style summary at the end. I registered for a closed beta account at CloudScale [1] a few weeks ago and noticed that they offer a number of Linux flavors: Debian, Ubuntu, CentOS, .. but no Arch Linux. They use OpenStack with the official OpenStack images [2] of Debian, Ubuntu and so on. It seems there are no official OpenStack images for Arch. There are the ec2 images of Uplinklabs [3] but that's all I find on the net. I have been working on a tool called image-bootstrap [4] for a while, originally aimed at creating virtual machine images for Debian and Ubuntu. Recently, I have added Arch Linux support to image-bootstrap (and created an Arch equivalent of Debian's debootstrap [5] called "directory-bootstrap" in the process, same code base). Since today, when passing the --openstack option to image-boostrap, it does create bootable Arch OpenStack images. But there is something missing. When giving birth to a new virtual machine, an OpenStack image file [6] of say 1 GiB size is copied onto a say 50 GiB "disk", some kind of block device passed to a hypervisor. The original image was generated believing that the given hard disk was say 2 GiB in size, some fixed size, not the size that OpenStack is actually launching virtual machines with. To give access to the full disk space to users, OpenStack images are prepared to do the following: 1. During early boot (initramfs time), the one and only partition is enlarged to the full size of the disk. 2. during normal boot, cloud-init is running resize2fs to enlarge the ext4 root file system to the new size of that partition. It's a little crazy, but it works: the user hardly notices. In Debian, apart from cloud-init that magic is done by packages cloud-utils and cloud-initramfs-growroot of cloud-initramfs-tools [7]. While Arch does have cloud-init, I find cloud-utils in AUR only and no cloud-initramfs-growroot at all. I am looking for Arch developers to bring these to the Arch master repository. There is yet something else: Trust. Anyone can make images and upload them but who is going to trust the image if it is not signed by a person that they trust? There is a group of five people in the Arch master signing keys [8]. One of them created, signed and uploaded the archlinux-bootstrap-*.tar.gz files that users rely on. My hope is that one of these five is willing to use image-bootstrap [4] to create, sign and upload OpenStack images as well. Let me summarize: * Arch OpenStack images are in reach * cloud-utils and cloud-initramfs-growroot need packaging for the Arch master repository. Can you take over? * image-bootstrap (and directory-bootstrap) [4] can be of help with bootstrapping Arch Linux today. * I am looking for master signing key members interested in using image-bootstrap for OpenStack image generation. Please get in touch. * I welcome your thoughts and bug reports (no pull requests before discussion at the moment, please) Thanks for your attention.

[arch-general] pacman mirrorlist update
by Francis Gerund 19 Jun '15

19 Jun '15

Hello. Just installed update pacman-mirrorlist -20150618-1, installed by pacman as /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.pacnew, and there is nothing exotic about my /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist. I just normally update my mirrorlist by doing: sudo reflector --verbose --country 'United States' -l 200 -p http --sort rate --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist as suggested by the Arch wiki pacman article. Should I again just: sudo reflector --verbose --country 'United States' -l 200 -p http --sort rate --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist and then just delete /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.pacnew?
