[arch-dev-public] libraw1394 rebuilds
by Jan de Groot 10 May '09

10 May '09

I'm pusing libraw1394 to testing. This release has a sobump and requires rebuild of some packages. I've done most packages, but vlc and kdebase are also on this list. Both packages are in testing at this moment, without versioned dependencies, so I don't plan to rebuild these myself. Please rebuild vlc and kdebase when libraw1394 is in testing.

Especially Xen is something you want to keep compatibility with. As for udev that doesn't work with older kernels: there's always something called static /dev that people can use as a workaround, and chroots don't need udev anyways.

[arch-dev-public] Someone can do me the favor of building wine?
by Eduardo Romero 10 May '09

10 May '09

Hi, I am having problems sending wine to extra, something about the ssh key on my 32bit box, and don't have the time to check it, it would be better, faster for any of the other developers to build it and send to extra. You only need to adjust the number to .21 in the PKGBUILD and change md5sum, no other PKGBUILD changes are needed. I would appreciate the help guys, Thanks, Eduardo "kensai" Romero

by Daniel Isenmann 09 May '09

09 May '09

Hi, the latest graphviz package places a file to /usr/lib64/ which is wrong. $ pacman -Qo /usr/lib64/php/modules/gv.so /usr/lib64/php/modules/gv.so is owned by graphviz 2.22.2-1 Giovanni built the x86_64, so can you please fix this? Cheers, Daniel

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] dhcpcd 5.0.1-1
by Ronald van Haren 08 May '09

08 May '09

Hi, please signoff for both architectures. James tested netcfg2 for compatibility and all should be fine on that end. This release probably also fixes http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/11761 but I have no way to verify it so I won't close before someone reports it is fixed. Ronald
