[arch-dev-public] Drop the unstable repository
by Thomas Bächler 23 Jul '08

23 Jul '08

I had this thought during the above discussion about compat-wireless: Do we really need unstable? Almost nobody uses it and let's see which packages are in there: opera-devel firefox3 kernel26mm fvwm-devel gimp-devel reiser4progs + dependencies. openoffice-devel mplayer-svn Most of the rest is so out of date and old that it should be dropped anyway (including the external modules for kernel26mm). The packages that are actually being maintained can IMO be moved to extra. Everybody who installs a -svn or -devel package probably knows it is unstable (firefox3 should be renamed to firefox-devel then). So I'm asking you: What is the point of having a repository with <30 packages, half of which are neither used nor maintained? Except maybe confusion among users (wait? enable unstable? isn't that dangerous?).

[arch-dev-public] Please stop the install message insanity
by Dan McGee 22 Jul '08

22 Jul '08

Wow, I got blasted today with an 88 package upgrade on one of my machines, and this one really stuck out: http://repos.archlinux.org/viewvc.cgi/lighttpd/trunk/lighttpd.install?revis… I don't even know what is important anymore, so I just stopped reading as I'm sure most of our users do too. 1. *Please* use optdepends for things like: * mod_webdav : libxml2, sqlite3, e2fsprogs * mod_cml : lua * mod_magnet : lua * mod_trigger_b4_dl : gdbm * mod_mysql_vhost : libmysqlclient 2. Showing me these optional things every single time I install is stupid. Use optdepends and educate people to use -Qi. 3. If you are going to do an install message, at least indent it right. Why the heck was everything tabbed over here? 4. Don't keep one-upping every other install message to make sure yours looks important. The number of ++++++++>>>>>>>>> and ===========> and --------------> >> >>> !!!L#K!J#KL:!#KL:@#:%HKL: is getting out of control. OK, I'm done ranting, but I hope someone at least reads this. -Dan

Rebuild against 2.6.26 headers, update of v86d as the old version segfaultet in 2.6.26. Also, pacman now ensures that the klibc version is compatible. This is only tested on x86_64, so I need 2 signoffs for i686.
