[arch-dev-public] inactivity notice (vacation)
by Ronald van Haren 08 Jul '08

08 Jul '08

Hi devs/Tus, I'll be on vacation from 9th of August (tomorrow) until 29th of August. During this time I will probably not check my mail at regular intervals so don't expect quick respones from my side ;) Of course, feel free to update any of my packages if needed, or fix any new opened bugs. At the dev side I didn't adopt a lot of packages just yet for above reason so I suspect things to be quiet. On the TU side of things, I don't expect any major issues with any of my packages. Just keep an eye on bug reports that require just a simple rebuild. Btw I have already voted in the current running thread so you can count me in. See you on the other side! Regards, Ronald

[arch-dev-public] signoff: flex 2.5.35-1 for i686
by Paul Mattal 07 Jul '08

07 Jul '08

Some may recall verison 2.5.34 was broken in a way that broke some builds. Jan, do you recall exactly what wouldn't build? If so, I can try to build it with the new version. Request signoff from one other for i686. Full log since 2.5.33 is below. - P *** * version 2.5.35 released 2008-02-26 ** fixed bug that prevented flex from accepting certain comments in the scanner file (resolves bugs #1849809 and #1849805) ** fix bug that prevented headers for all functions from being generated (resolves bug #1628314) ** change yy_size_t to be size_t (resolves bug #1849812) ** new de, nl, pl, pt_br, vi translations from the translation project * version 2.5.34 released 2007-12-12 ** introduce yylex_init_extra; see the manual for details ** introduce %option extra-type="your_type *" (resolves bug #1744505) ** The flex program now parses multiple short concatenated options (resolves bug #1619820). Thanks to Petr Machata of Red Hat on this issue. ** better checking after yyalloc/yyrealloc (resolves bug #1595967) ** flex now provides for a libfl_pic.a compiled with position independent code. Particularly useful when including a flex scanner in a shared library and with more recent versions of gcc. Thanks to the Debia n project for the idea. ** SourceForge feature request #1658379: Expose YY_BUF_SIZE in the header file. ** flex better escapes filenames with special characters in them (resolves bug #1623600) ** a memory leak was plugged(resolves bug #1601111) ** pattern language expanded; see the manual for details on the below highlights *** pattern options added to specify patterns as case-insensitive or case-sensitive *** pattern options to specify whether the "." character should match the newline character *** pattern options added to allow ignoring of whitespace in patterns *** POSIX character classes may be negated in patterns *** patterns may now use set difference, union operators ** the manual now contains an appendix listing various common patterns which may be useful when writing scanners ** some memory leaks were removed from the C++ scanner (but the C++ scanner is still experimental and may change radically without notice) ** c++ scanners can now use yywrap ** added new unit test for c++ and yywrap ** portability fixes to some unit tests ** flex man page and flex manual in pdf now distributed in the flex distribution ** new ca, vi, ga, nl translations from the translation project ** flex no longer comes with an rpm spec file ** flex development now happens with automake 1.9.6

[arch-dev-public] Syncing single repo with abs
by Allan McRae 07 Jul '08

07 Jul '08

Hi all, So looking at abs I noticed it at some stage had the ability to sync single repos: > abs --help Arch Build System 2.1 -- synchronization utility usage: /usr/bin/abs [options] [repository1 [repository2 ...]] <snip> If no argument is given, abs will synchronize the repositories specified in /etc/abs.conf. But this no longer works... I'm guessing this came about with the switch to rsync. Given it has been a while since the switch to rsync, I'm concluding that nobody actually uses this and will remove it rather than fix it. Any objections? Allan
