Working on SandboxUser patch
by Allan McRae 12 Feb '23

12 Feb '23

Just to avoid any potential overlap - I am working on the SandboxUser patch that Remi submitted a long while ago... https://lists.archlinux.org/archives/list/pacman-dev@lists.archlinux.org/th… The patch is far too big for me to confidently review in one go, so I am splitting it into smaller sections as I go. Progress can be seen here: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/pacman/pacman/-/commits/allan/privsep Allan

RFC: Automatically fallback to Arch Linux Archive if all mirrors returned 404
by Yuuta Liang 05 Feb '23

05 Feb '23

Hi, I am using Arch Linux on lots of my personal servers, and most of them are not updated regularly. This causes trouble when I need to install a package on these servers because the requested package versions are already gone from mirrors. Upgrading these machines requires some effort because I need to wait and also manually fix pacnews, so it is not very ad-hoc. This is also an annoying issue on old (well, not the latest I'd say) Arch ISOs. I sometimes use Arch ISO to debug offline Linux systems, and I need to quickly install some debug tools, but my old Arch ISOs usually need to get a full update to install these packages, which is really annoying. Although Arch Linux is currently providing an archive service, it still requires manually typing the URL, which is not very convenient. I would like to work on a patch that automatically falls back to downloading `https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/.all/package_name-version-arch.pkg.tar.xxx` if all mirrors returned 404. The administrator may configure the archive URL prefix in pacman.conf(5). How does that sound? This is only a handy helper for users and will not likely to break any Arch systems except those very old ones, which need to be upgraded to get things working. If it sounds good, I would like to submit the patch as soon as possible, or are there any suggestions? Thank you very much. Best regards, Yuuta Liang

[Important] Gitlab migation plan for Pacman
by Morten Linderud 03 Jan '23

03 Jan '23

Hi, Some time ago it was decided to migrate the pacman development from the Mailing List to the Gitlab instance hosted by Arch Linux. The pacman source has been hosted there for a while but the development has strictly been conducted on the Mailing List and this is about to change. https://gitlab.archlinux.org/pacman/pacman/ The plan is as follows: 1. Open the patch submission via Gitlab and close the mailing list submission 2. Open the Gitlab issue tracker and close down the flyspry issue tracker 3. Manually migrate bugs from flyspry to Gitlab and close the others. Currently the issue tracker is open on Gitlab, and merge requests have also been enabled for some time. No EOL dates has been set on on patch submission nor flyspry, but I'd encourage any new development to using gitlab instead of the mailing list and flyspry from this point on. I propose we close down Flyspry and patch submission 1st of January 2023. This change also implies decommisioning the Patchwork instance. For this to be done we need to keep track of any unmerged/unreviewed patches from the mailing list. This list has been made and if anything is missing please do reach out. https://gitlab.archlinux.org/pacman/pacman/-/issues/1 There is also some documentation work that needs to be done to direct users from the Mailing List to Gitlab. Any help updating this documentation is very much appreciated. Cheers, Morten Linderud
