Re: [arch-general] [arch-dev-public] Out-of-date orphans in repo
Lately, I've been updating out-of-date orphans. So far I did the ones that were easy to update/test so this is a status report on the remaining ones. The purpose here is, ideally, to find maintainers for them or at least testers (devs or users).
BTW, make sure that you are listed as maintainer for both arches of the packages you maintain even if you can't build the package for that architecture. Several packages have only one of their arch adopted. This clutters the list of orphaned and it spams the dev ML with out-of-date notifications.
Here the commented list: ... userui: I can't really test the rest. Is there anyone able/willing to test updated packages for them? In fact, I didn't really checked them out. evms and exim seems important so I'm not confortable to push them even in testing without any good testing. For the rest, if noone comes forward, I could test them as good as I can and push them to testing then as for testers on the arch-general ML much like I did for the scim stuff. Moving some of them to AUR is always a possibility.
I use userui (since I use a TuxOnIce patched kernel) .. and I'm updateing this package myself too. Recently /usr/sbin/tuxoniceui_fbsplash can't be compiled on Arch since the Arch freetype package doesn't include the static (.a) library. So I can test an updated package. -- damjan

The name of the package is wrong anyway, it should be tuxonice-userui. As we don't provide a tuxonice kernel anymore, we should move this to AUR.

I was just thinking the same thing.

I've removed userui. I've uploaded it to AUR as tuxonice-userui. Someone who use it should adopt it.
Hello! I'm trying to change the UUID on a ext4 formatted partition of a virtual machine disc. The machine is running under virtualbox, on Windows. I'm using "tune2fs /dev/sda3 -U random", or "tune2fs /dev/sda3 -U UUID". I have booted from the arch install disk, the partition is not mounted. When I run this command, I only get this: [root@archiso /]# ls /dev/disk/by-uuid/ -l total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 2009-03-12 14:27 323cc148-ff48-4038-a2e7-9908896a58fd -> ../../sda2 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 2009-03-12 14:27 36628cd2-0842-4be0-a631-12afbc48793d -> ../../sda3 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 2009-03-12 14:27 93f768dc-9161-4387-a83d-231da5f193ef -> ../../sda1 [root@archiso /]# tune2fs /dev/sda3 -U 00f46b25-8c12-4254-8d45-13be848c3da1 tune2fs 1.41.4 (27-Jan-2009) [root@archiso /]# ls /dev/disk/by-uuid/ -l total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 2009-03-12 14:27 323cc148-ff48-4038-a2e7-9908896a58fd -> ../../sda2 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 2009-03-12 14:27 36628cd2-0842-4be0-a631-12afbc48793d -> ../../sda3 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 2009-03-12 14:27 93f768dc-9161-4387-a83d-231da5f193ef -> ../../sda1 [root@archiso /]# Tune2fs does not give any error, but the UUID does not change.

hi I think you have to replay the udev events: run as root: udevadm trigger tell me if it works bye On Thu, Mar 12, 2009 at 11:11 PM, Guillermo Leira <gleira@gleira.com> wrote:

It was working, but not very well... When I gave up and tried to reboot, the partition was in an inconsistent state. I had to run fsck -f, and then the UUID was changed. Anyway, I was wrong. I was trying to change the UUID of a vmware virtual disk, and this operation made no difference. Thanks, Guillermo Leira
