[arch-dev-public] Pacman epoch and what you need to know
by Dan McGee 17 Mar '11

17 Mar '11

With 3.5.0 out, we no longer recognize the "force" option in PKGBUILDs; this has been replaced by the 'epoch' variable. What you need to know: * If you've never forced a package upgrade, don't go introducing epoch. * Default epoch is 0. * If you've ever used 'force' in a package (even if it isn't there now!), you should probably set epoch to 1 next time you build the package. * Each time you increment epoch, it will completely and utterly outrank any previous version of the package. Make sure this is what you want. * epoch should be seen as a last resort. Can someone forward this along to the TU list as well? And anyone that wants to have a command-line skillz showdown, I challenge you to top this one [1], the list of all packages currently using force. -Dan [1] dmcgee@galway ~ $ zgrep -aE -A1

[arch-dev-public] [PATCH 0/2] dbscripts patches for package signatures
by Allan McRae 17 Mar '11

17 Mar '11

These patches upload a detached gpg signature file with a package if available. I'd like comments on where the signature should be generated. I was thinking at the end of makechrootpkg, but before upload could also work. Note that the future makepkg implementation for automatic signing is probably not appropriate for use as that would require gpg and a keyring in the chroot.

[arch-dev-public] [PATCH 0/4] dbscripts patches for dealing with package signatures
by Allan McRae 17 Mar '11

17 Mar '11

These patches should provide support for moving signatures to repos alongside their packages and cleaning them up when no longer needed. I have not added checks to the test suite for this.

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] bash-4.2.008-1
by Allan McRae 15 Mar '11

15 Mar '11

Upstream patch level bump. Bug-Description: Bash-4.2 does not attempt to save the shell history on receipt of a terminating signal that is handled synchronously. Unfortunately, the `close' button on most X11 terminal emulators sends SIGHUP, which kills the shell. This is a very small patch to save the history in the case that an interactive shell receives a SIGHUP or SIGTERM while in readline and reading a command. The next version of bash will do this differently. Signoff both, Allan
