[arch-dev-public] What happened to QCA plugins?
by Thomas Bächler 04 May '09

04 May '09

What happened to the QCA plugins? In 2.0.1, they were included in qca, but in the next minor update 2.0.2, they are not compiled with it. I am especially missing the gnupg plugin. Do we now have to compile all plugins separately? Anyone in favor of adding the other plugins (only qca-ossl is there now) to extra as well?

[arch-dev-public] ffmpeg and x264 update/rebuild in testing
by Eric Bélanger 04 May '09

04 May '09

Hi, I've just put an updated ffmpeg and x264 in testing. I've updated ffmpeg to the latest stable version (0.5) that was released recently and x264 was updated to the latest snapshot. The x264 library has a soname bump so the following packages have been rebuilt: mplayer avidemux gstreamer0.10-bad-plugins vlc opal Because the ffmpeg version scheme change (20090217 -> 0.5) was causing problem on pacman update, I also had to rebuild the following packages to change their ffmpeg versioned dependency: cmus k3b motion nuvexport sox transcode xine-lib Some notes: - nuvexport was out-of-date so I updated it. - Concerning mplayer, I haven't done any changes related to the GUI. However, I changed the libcaca makedepends to a depends. Please test and report any problems.

[arch-dev-public] new package: libusb1
by Jan de Groot 03 May '09

03 May '09

I've added libusb1 1.0.0 to the repositories. It's a rewrite of the old libusb 0.1.x package we have in core at this moment. As it's a rewrite, and not source or binary compatible, I decided to rename the package for now. Until every application in the repositories has been ported to the 1.0 version of libusb, this package will stay.

[arch-dev-public] our FAT support and Microsoft
by Andreas Radke 03 May '09

03 May '09

http://www.linux-foundation.org/weblogs/jzemlin/2009/03/31/on-the-tomtom-se… I haven't done further investigations but it seems we should take care about keep supporting the FAT file system. How is the state with NTFS? Is the license situation there more safe? Opinions? -Andy

Changing the subject and ML to make this more visible Please take a look at the packages that fail in /var/log/sourceballs If any of your packages are there, please fix them so that "makepkg --allsource" works. Additionally, please check ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/sources/failed.txt ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/sources/errors.txt [1] for additional failures 1: This output sucks. I've committed a fix for it, but it's not released
