[arch-general] no cups web/server with new version?
by Javier Vasquez 05 Nov '14

05 Nov '14

Hi, I followed the cups instructions when it upgraded recently: % pacman -Qs cups local/cups 2.0.0-2 The CUPS Printing System - daemon package local/cups-filters 1.0.61-2 OpenPrinting CUPS Filters local/cups-pdf 2.6.1-2 PDF printer for cups local/lib32-libcups 1.7.5-1 The CUPS Printing System - client libraries (32-bit) local/libcups 2.0.0-2 The CUPS Printing System - client libraries and headers I stopped and removed the old service, reloaded daemons, started and enabled new services (org.cups.cupsd.service and cups-browsed.service). However it seems I don't have the server working, since I can't get to localhost:631, and: % dmesg | 'grep' cups [ 10.006918] systemd[1]: Cannot add dependency job for unit cups.socket, ignoring: Unit cups.socket failed to load: No such file or directory. [ 10.006965] systemd[1]: Cannot add dependency job for unit cups.path, ignoring: Unit cups.path failed to load: No such file or directory. [ 1652.605967] systemd[1]: Cannot add dependency job for unit cups.socket, ignoring: Unit cups.socket failed to load: No such file or directory. % lpinfo -v lpinfo: Bad file descriptor The only configs in cups-files: % 'grep' '^[^#]' /etc/cups/cups-files.conf SystemGroup sys root lp AccessLog /var/log/cups/access_log ErrorLog /var/log/cups/error_log PageLog /var/log/cups/page_log I noticed a prior e-mail about this, with similar dmesg indications, but the OP indicated he solved his problems by using the appropriate services. Though I think I have the right services started and enabled... BTW, the web interface was working prior to the update. Any hints? Thanks, -- Javier.

[arch-general] python mysql bindings.
by Eduardo Machado 05 Nov '14

05 Nov '14

Hi, i was building a python package that depends on an mysql binding for python, and i was looking about "mysql-python" [1], but when looking upstream [2] the page has a link to a new website [3]. At this new website, the author states that the package is a legacy version (the source used in the Arch[1]), and the new one was renamed to "moist" and has a new source [4]. So, i ask if this is a case of outdated package or it can be considered updated, although it's a legacy version? And i would like to know if some TU has interest to provide the new one, if not, i will gladly create an AUR package. Best regards, mawcomw

[arch-general] several missing /run/xxx after systemd update in testing
by Genes Lists 03 Nov '14

03 Nov '14

I posted about stunnel failing after systemd update - then I found that php-fpm has same problem - issue of course only shows up after a boot when /run is re-created. Now I have found that mariadb won't start either - same reason - missing /run/mysqld directory (so cannot create socket) My work around is to copy the service files to /etc/systemd/system and edit them to add ExecStartPre lines to create /run/xxx and adjust ownership. Anyway - be warned if you have things failing to start this just might be your problem too!! gene/

[arch-general] Where's my locale gone?
by Paul Gideon Dann 03 Nov '14

03 Nov '14

I'm stumped: I've had LANG=en_GB.UTF8 in /etc/locale.conf ever since the switch to systemd, but in the last few days since my previous reboot, something's changed (maybe systemd 216?) and now I find that, even though /etc/locale.conf still contains en_GB, I get: # echo $LANG en_US.UTF8 This is almost certainly related to why I'm getting messed up character encoding in Konsole. In particular, tmux fails to render dividing lines properly, showing accented 'a' characters instead, and similar things happen in Vim. Is there some additional configuration I need beyond /etc/locale.conf now? I've checked locale.gen and rerun locale-gen without any effect. I've also tried rerunning mkinitpio for good measure. Any ideas? Paul

[arch-general] stunnel 5.06-1 vs systemd
by Genes Lists 02 Nov '14

02 Nov '14

I noticed this today after the systemd update and after I rebooted - stunnel package fails to create /run/stunnel and so stunnel.service won't start as it cannot chroot to /var/run/stunnel. stunnel was updated for me on 10/21 from 5.03 to 5.06. Machine has been rebooted since then - so it -seems- like a change happened in systemd which triggered this, but I'm not sure. Work around is to add these 2 lines to /etc/systemd/system/stunnel.conf before the ExecStart line: ExecStartPre=-/usr/bin/mkdir /run/stunnel ExecStartPre=/usr/bin/chown -R stunnel:stunnel /run/stunnel Probably just a minor package bug. gene

[arch-general] System Bootup and Shutdown Sounds
by Ronnie Thomas 01 Nov '14

01 Nov '14

Hello Everyone, The canberra-system-bootup.service, canberra-system-shutdown.service and the canberra-system-shutdown-reboot.service from the libcanberra package [0.30-4] refer to several .oga files (like system-bootup.oga) which probably should have been present in the sound-theme-freedesktop package, but aren't there. Where can I find these files, or is this some kind of a bug. Regards, Ronnie.P.Thomas
