[arch-dev-public] DNS and SSL Cert
by Aaron Griffin 19 Jul '11

19 Jul '11

Two things are coming up here, and I just want to bring this discussion up again. * DNS Our everydns account is going away. According to their site (http://www.everydns.com/) we have 43-ish days to get everything moved off. We have a handful of options, some free, some not. a) https://pointhq.com/ - I use this personally. Maybe not the snappiest DNS servers in the world, but the interface is easy. b) http://reflected.net/ could host our DNS, but we'd need to manually contact people to change things c) Use our registrar (godaddy) d) Other? * SSL Cert Our StartCom cert is expiring. I need to reconfirm my identity with them, but I can get to this as early as tomorrow. Have we had any major issues with using a cert from these people? Now would be the time to switch, if so. Cheers, Aaron

[arch-dev-public] testing splitted LibreOffice 3.4.2rc1
by Andreas Radke 19 Jul '11

19 Jul '11

It's done. LibreOffice has been split into libreoffice-common and application packages -writer,base,calc,... For better look'n feel you should also install libreoffice-gnome for use in any gtk desktop and libreoffice-kde4 if you want. The en-US language is no more included in the -common pkg. So everyone will have to install at least one language pack,e.g. libreoffice-en-US. I hope I've covered the deps all well. Please test fresh installations and also upgrading from last 3.4.1 release. The new 3.4.2rc1 should be already safe for daily usage. Recommended way for new installations should be to either install libreoffice-common the should ask for a langpack or directly install the langpack of your choice that will pull in the -common pkg. Then you install the application packages you want. It's also possible to install the "libreoffice" group package. If you upgrade you should get libreoffice-common installed showing the needed infos. So get it from the testing repo and report bugs. -Andy

Re: [arch-dev-public] Audacious 3 - GTK2 vs GTK3

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] gmp-5.0.2-2
by Allan McRae 18 Jul '11

18 Jul '11

Upstream patch for the following bug (until 5.0.3 is release with this fix): There is a GMP bug in mpn/generic/dcpi1_bdiv_q.c that causes incorrect computation with extremely low probability, for unnormalised dividends. The bug might also result in a decrement of memory above dividends, with some potential security impact. The bug might affect several user-level routines, e.g., mpz_invert, but only for operands of at least 3000 bits (for smaller operands, a simpler algorithm is used). Testsuite fully passes. Signoff both, Allan

[arch-dev-public] Fwd: Move kdelibs3 to [community]

I prefer it over qalculate-gtk and it seems logical to keep qalculate-kde along with qalculate-gtk and libqalculate in extra. Why do you want to move kdelibs3 to community? If it's because it's orphaned, I can adopt it and qt3 as well. I suppose they are low maintenance. Eric

[arch-dev-public] Moving openldap to core repo
by Eric Bélanger 17 Jul '11

17 Jul '11

Hi, I was looking into updating the orphaned libldap and openldap packages and couldn't help to notice that they should be in a splitted PKGBUILD instead of two seperate PKGBUILD. It will remove duplicate work and probably make the PKGBUILD cleaner especially the build function which currently cd to subdirectories to only build what is needed for its specific package. As openldap only depends on core packages, I don't see why it couldn't go in core. Any objections? Eric

Yes, the PKGBUILD and an updated version of the patch are here: https://dev.archlinux.org/~eric/openldap/ You'll need to move your db as mentionned in the thread. I won't do a split package for the overlays like you did in your PKGBUILD in the bug report. It's overkill, the overlays aren't that big and they don't bring any extra dependencies. > > I'm a user of the LDAP overlays and I do not need the libtool files > coming with the overlays/modules and there is no setup known to me at > the moment where they are used.

I've added !libtool to the options of the openldap package. If the overlays still work without the libtool files, then they are not necessary. Thanks for testing this, Eric

[arch-dev-public] News draft for dropping tcp_wrappers
by Dan McGee 16 Jul '11

16 Jul '11

Dropping tcp_wrappers support Due to upstream not having released a new version since April 1997, we are dropping `tcp_wrappers` support from all packages and removing the package from `[core]`. In addition, newer daemons and applications are inconsistent in their support for libwrap, leading to confusion as to whether an application supports the library. If you currently use `/etc/hosts.allow` or `/etc/hosts.deny` for security or logging purposes, you will need to adjust accordingly and use another tool such as `iptables`.
