[arch-general] Note on Trinity R14 (3.5.14)
by David C. Rankin 01 Apr '12

01 Apr '12

Guys, There will be an upcoming release of TDE 3.5.14 in the next few months and I have worked to update the build system for Arch. All packages below are building on current libraries. The only AUR base package utilized is HAL. I will update the wiki with current information after the remaining PKGBUILD development is complete. Many bugs have been fixed and enhancements added. The desktop is significantly faster than 3.5.10, 3.5.12 or 3.5.13 without any additional bloat. See trinitydesktop.org for the latest info. If you have any interest in contributing, please feel free to join Calvin, Pawell, Baho and I on the project. The current list of packages building is: tde-abakus tde-arts tde-dbus-1-tqt tde-dbus-tqt tde-dolphin tde-gtk-qt-engine tde-kgtk-qt3 tde-kio-locate tde-kipi-plugins tde-kpowersave tde-libart-lgpl tde-libcaldav tde-libcarddav tde-libkdcraw tde-libkexiv2 tde-libkipi tde-libksquirrel tde-python-tqt tde-rosegarden tde-sip (replaces sip) tde-sip4-tqt (replaces python2-sip) tde-tde-style-qtcurve tde-tdeaddons tde-tdeartwork tde-tdebase (with upower) tde-tdegames tde-tdegraphics tde-tdelibs tde-tdemultimedia tde-tdenetwork tde-tdepim tde-tdesvn tde-tdetoys tde-tdeutils tde-tdevelop tde-tdewebdev tde-tqca-tls tde-tqt3 tde-tqtinterface tde-wlassistant That is a majority of the desktop and it is truly a joy to use. Currently I have a development build script for building. Once R14 is released, I will revise it to build from traditional pkgbuild.src.tz files and make that available for anyone interested. I don't know if kaiting still has server space, but I have binary packages for both i686 and x86_64 that I can make available for testing. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

[arch-general] usermove update
by Tom Gundersen 01 Apr '12

01 Apr '12

Hi guys, The recent updates of kmod, systemd and udev in testing moves /lib/{systemd,udev,modprobe.d,depmod.d} to /usr/. The old location will, for the time being, continue to work for config files (as well as udev rules and systemd unit files). However, helper programs installed to /lib/{systemd,udev} will have to be moved to /usr/lib. This has been done for all the official packages, but third-party packages will have to be updated. Cheers, Tom

01 Apr '12

Can any options be used with mkisofs to tell it if an single image will have a size larger than 1 dvd can hold, make as many additional images as necessary so that everything will fit on more than a single dvd? ---------------------------------------------------------------- Jude <jdashiel-at-shellworld-dot-net> <http://www.shellworld.net/~jdashiel/nj.html>

01 Apr '12

This is NEC hardware here and I'm always issued two warnings whenever I try to burn anything. The first is that input buffer cannot be read and the second is that the dma speed test is skipped. What things can I change in order to clear these warnings? ---------------------------------------------------------------- Jude <jdashiel-at-shellworld-dot-net> <http://www.shellworld.net/~jdashiel/nj.html>

[arch-general] A bug reported, no response in two weeks
by Karol Blazewicz 31 Mar '12

31 Mar '12

There's a nasty typo in libgringotts PKGBUILD http://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/community.git/tree/trunk/PKGBUILD?h=… : 'pckage()' should be changed to 'package()', otherwise the package creates no files: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=137648 http://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/i686/libgringotts/files/ I've reported the bug on 14 March 2012 https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/28920 and I've got no response so far. I'm not sure what's going on, am I missing something? I can see that the change introducing this bug has been made by someone else than the current maintainer and the person the bug is assigned to http://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/community.git/commit/trunk?h=package…
