[arch-general] gfortran upgrade => recompile packages
by جاك الفضة 26 Feb '14

26 Feb '14

All the time when gfortran is bumped version, all fortran modules (file with .mod extensions) in other packages must be recompiled because module definitions are changed in the new compiler gfortran. Example : netcdf-fortran is broke currently if one try compile this code ==== module test use netcdf end module test ==== gfortran -I/usr/include -c test.f90 test.f90:2.7: use netcdf 1 Fatal Error: Cannot read module file 'netcdf.mod' opened at (1), because it was created by a different version of GNU Fortran

[arch-general] nano syntax highlighting doesn't work
by Ralf Mardorf 25 Feb '14

25 Feb '14

Hi, I don't know how to get syntax highlighting for nano, when I start it from the Jwm menu. Now I run [rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ grep nano .jwmrc <Program label="Nano">roxterm --maximize -T Nano -e nano</Program> and syntax highlighting doesn't work. If I run nano in roxterm by [rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ nano /etc/fstab the highlighting (~/.nanorc) takes effect, but if I run [rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ nano and then read /etc/fstab I don't get syntax highlighting. If the below option should be related to the highlighting, then I don't understand how to use it. [rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ nano --help | grep syntax -Y <str> --syntax=<str> Syntax definition to use for coloring Any hints are welcome. Regards, Ralf

[arch-general] libreoffice-writer upgrade
by Myra Nelson 25 Feb '14

25 Feb '14

After the latest writer upgrade (version 4.2.1-1), lowriter fails to run. I get the following error message when trying to start it from a console. /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libtubeslo.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I've googled the missing library and had no luck finding it and I've found no other bug reports any where. Downgrading to libreoffice-writer-4.1.5-1 cures the problem. Sorry for the noise. Myra -- Life's fun when your sick and psychotic!

[arch-general] NetworkManager 0.9.8.8-2 does not work with systemd 208
by Austin Lund 24 Feb '14

24 Feb '14

After my last upgrade I noticed that the NetworkManager service was failing. The error message was that NetworkManager could not load because it couldn't find libsystemd.so.0. I'm running systemd 208-11. The unified systemd library is in 209, irrc. Systemd 209 isn't available in core yet, but nevertheless, the dependencies in NetworkManager should have been updated. Solution to the problem is to force NetworkManager to 0.9.8.8-1.

I'm thinking about it, but I'm not sure if it's needed. I've written one script to generate an ArchLinux|ARM bootable USB/SD card-based installation; another, to generate a Debian installation. In each case, it goes from shell command to usable installation in about half an hour. It works for the Samsung Chromebook (ARM 7-based). It might work for other ARM-based systems; I don't know. In each case, the OS is installed on an external device, which means it is awfully close to being a "live CD" (not a CD, but you get the point). The principal advantage of a 'live' device would be non-permanence of user data. I've had a look at porting Tails to the ARM platform. It would be nontrivial, but it could be done. Still, I'm happier with the idea of working with ArchLinux, not Debian (or Tails). ArchLinux's kernel sources are available and easy to modify (by me), whereas I've had no luck with Debian's kernel. If the root partition of the device is encrypted, do we really need it to be 'live' at all? Does anyone actually want a live version of ArchLinux for ARM systems, or would a freely available and easy-to-build-at-home external SD card or thumb drive do? What is the problem we're trying to solve? Depending on our objective - privacy, disaster recovery, or merely mucking about with a Chromebook without nuking its internal drive - we might not need the live capability. Comments? -Hugo

[arch-general] How to reboot remotely without hanging ssh session?
by David C. Rankin 23 Feb '14

23 Feb '14

Guys, I remote administer one arch server and after moving to systemd I haven't found a way to reboot without hanging the ssh session. Prior to system, we could simply pass the shutdown command via ssh and the ssh session would complete/close before reboot took place: i.e. $ ssh remote.host.org "sudo shutdown -r now" However with systemd, using "systemctl reboot" the ssh session hangs until the remote host reboot or a timeout occurs. Is there a better way to reboot a remote server and avoid this? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
