[arch-projects] [netcfg] systemd v. initscripts
by Tom Gundersen 10 Aug '12

10 Aug '12

Hi Jouke, It notice that we have /etc/rc.d/net-profiles, but /usr/lib/systemd/system/netcfg.service. That mostly does not matter, but in order to make people's life easier when converting from initsrcipts to systemd, and in particular if they use the compatibility layer to parse DAEMONS automatically, it would be nice if the rc script and the systemd unit had the same name. Renaming the unit file is probably a bad idea by now, but just adding a symlink net-profiles.service -> netcfg.service should do the trick. What do you think? Tom

[arch-projects] [netcfg] Fix passphrase dialog in wifi-menu

I didn't actually test this, but it adds support for hex psk in wifi-menu, which has been forgotten, as usual.

[arch-projects] [dbscripts][PATCH] Disable automatic trust db check when verifying
by Florian Pritz 10 Aug '12

10 Aug '12

Most dbscripts commands are run with user privileges and those won't have write access to the trust db. Therefore when gpg tries to check it and write the last check time (or something else) into the file it will fail and display the following error: > gpg: trustdb rec 30: write failed (n=-1): Bad file descriptor > gpg: trustdb: sync failed: Bad file descriptor To avoid this we tell it not to do automatic checking.

It shouldn't be that hard, the configuration seems to be mostly identical for different providers.

[arch-projects] [abs] [PATCH] PKGBUILD-perl.proto: Download sources by module instead of by author
by jstjohn＠purdue.edu 07 Aug '12

07 Aug '12

From: "Jason St. John" <jstjohn(a)purdue.edu> CPAN apparently changed the by-authors download URL structures because http://cpan.perl.org/modules/by-authors/id/$_author/ does not work anymore. The directory structure appears to be 'by-authors/id/<first letter>/<first two letters>/$_author', which significantly reduces the usefulness of _author in the default PKGBUILD. I changed the source array to download by module instead of by author to make things simple. The _author variable is no longer needed, and I added a _modnamespace variable to handle CPAN's URL format.
