[arch-general] Problems updating wine 6.9-1 -> 6.10-1
by Uwe Sauter 07 Jun '21

07 Jun '21

Hi all, I'm hitting update problems with wine. Seems like uninstalling 6.9-1 and installing 6.10-1 or advanced usage of "pacman -Su --overwrite <glob>" is needed. Pacman shows 4253 conflicting files in a lot of directories. Regards, Uwe :: Starting full system upgrade... resolving dependencies... looking for conflicting packages...

[arch-general] System Freeze on sleep
by Prateek Sadhukhan 01 Jun '21

01 Jun '21

Hello All, After upgrading to the new kernel I see that my system freezes when I try to resume from sleep. This happens intermittently but frequent enough to be irritating. I have to reboot the system to recover. I am running kernel 5.12.7-arch1-1 The issue was not seen with kernel 5.11. I am running arch on btrfs and I suspect it is a btrfs issue somehow. When I check dmesg (journactl --dmesg --boot -1) I see that it always ends with the following two lines when the issue is seen. May 29 07:12:40 matrix kernel: PM: suspend entry (deep) May 29 07:12:40 matrix kernel: Filesystems sync: 0.025 seconds I wanted to know how do I attempt to debug this issue? Regards, Prateek

And the fact that the problem is intermittent also suggests that it may perhaps be a kernel issue rather than a hard drive issue? It is not a very critical machine and I have backups. Do you have some suggestions as to how I should go about dealing with this? Other commands to test the hard drive? Kernel parameters?

[arch-general] How to enable Archlinux users to easily avoid Polkit?
by Neven Sajko 30 May '21

30 May '21

Hi On my up-to-date Archlinux system, the only package that depends on Polkit is Colord, which, in turn, is only depended on by GTK3. Forcefully removing the Polkit package (with pacman -R --assume-installed polkit polkit), works fine: after doing it, I rebooted and printed a page from Chromium (which uses GTK3 for this) on my black-and-white printer over USB. It would be very nice to give Arch and GTK3 users like me the opportunity to avoid Polkit without hassle. The only idea I got is to move polkit from depends to optdepends in the colord package, and add post_install and post_upgrade messages saying something like: > WARNING: install polkit if you plan on actually using colord! Do others agree that this would be more good than bad? In any case, I'm not a Pacman expert, so I'm hoping somebody can come up with an even better solution? Tangentially, what are the chances of convincing upstream to relax the Colord dependency on Polkit? Could such a patch get accepted? BTW, does somebody know what happened to the packages for building GTK3 without Colord, building Colord without Polkit, and similar? I think those were available on AUR previosuly. Regards, Neven

[arch-general] How to say Arch
by Hritik Vijay 15 May '21

15 May '21

Hello I stumbled upon this really funny video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nLdexZlVkAY) that goes to sing how to pronounce SUSE. Now, as Arch faces the same issue (being Ark Linux vs Arch linux), I was wondering if we could get some momentum towards building such content. :) Hrtk

[arch-general] Why Fortify Sources are Disabled with the glibc Libraries?
by Sijie Bu 12 May '21

12 May '21

Hello, I was reading the PKGBUILD of `glibc` the other day, and noticed that only the `glibc` programs are build with fortify sources, and the library itself is not. Is there a specific reason to do so? Sincerely P.S. My context for this question is that I'm bootstrapping Arch for MIPS r6 and is under way, I'm rebuilding glibc today and this came to my mind (I have built the entire `glibc` with fortify enabled and it seemed to work just fine, so would like to know the reason behind disabling fortify for the libraries).

[arch-general] I am thinking of buying Raspberry Pi 4 Model B 8GB with 7 or 10 inch touch screen display in June 2021

Subject: I am thinking of buying Raspberry Pi 4 Model B 8GB with 7 or 10 inch touch screen display in June 2021 Good day from Singapore, I am thinking of buying Raspberry Pi 4 Model B 8GB with 7 or 10 inch touch screen display in June 2021. Raspberry Pi 4 Model B - 8GB (Latest) - Price SGD$120 https://sg.cytron.io/c-raspberry-pi/c-raspberry-pi-main-board/c-raspberry-p… Raspberry Pi 7 Inch Touch Screen Display With SmartiPi Case - Price SGD$147 https://sg.cytron.io/c-raspberry-pi/c-raspberry-pi-display/c-display-for-rp… Do you think it is a good match? I want to use my Raspberry Pi like a regular laptop or desktop computer. Would a 7 inch touch screen display be too small for my use case? I don't want to strain my eyes looking at a small display. However, if I get a 10 inch touch screen display, I can't find one with a supporting base. I can't find a 10 inch touch screen display with a supporting base which could allow the screen to stand vertically. Finally, does your Linux distribution support Raspberry Pi 4 Model B 8 GB? Can I do 4K Ultra HD video editing on the Raspberry Pi 4 Model B 8 GB? Like adding watermarks, and cutting away unwanted 4K scenes. Is there a good 4K video editing software for Linux? I am looking forward to your reply. Thank you very much. Mr. Turritopsis Dohrnii Teo En Ming, 43 years old as of 9th May 2021, is a TARGETED INDIVIDUAL living in Singapore.

[arch-general] One maintainer, 100+ outdated packages
by Christopher W. 08 May '21

08 May '21

Over a hundred packages with anthraxx listed as the maintainer have been flagged out of date: https://archlinux.org/packages/?sort=&q=&maintainer=anthraxx&flagged=Flagged Many open bug reports are assigned to him too: https://bugs.archlinux.org/index.php?dev=17958 (In the past, bug reports with the [security] tag were automatically co-assigned to him, even if he wasn't the maintainer. Nevertheless many of these are specifically assigned to him and valid, including currently missing security updates.) Everyone's a volunteer and people have lives. Got it. Now what can we do to fix this situation? Can there be a group effort to take over some of the packages and get them in shape again? Regular users like me can't commit to the repo, TUs can only work in the [community] repo, and developers are all busy doing their own maintainer work.

[arch-general] Clock one hour ahead

Hi all, I'm finding that both my system and hardware clock are an hour ahead of what they should be (I checked this using the 'timedate' and 'hwclock' commands). Any ideas how to fix this? Thanks, Kiran
