[arch-general] warning: foobar: local (1.0.0-2) is newer than community (1.0.0-1)
by Ralf Mardorf 17 Jan '15

17 Jan '15

Regarding to my AUR cache [1], it seems to be common practise, that packages that moved from AUR to community get a lower "pkgrel="-value. IMO that is very annoying and doesn't make sense. I don't want to reinstall software that does work and I dislike to get tons of warnings. Why is this the common approach? Regards, Ralf PS: I'll send it to Arch and AUR general. [1] $ ls /var/cache/aur/foobar*

[arch-general] KDE Applications 14.12
by Wulf Richartz 17 Jan '15

17 Jan '15

Hello everyone, yesterday KDE released the first update for KDE Applications 14.12 and at Arch it's not even in testing-repository; therefore I would like to ask for the future of KDE Applications at Arch? If you look at the forum, I think I'm not the only one. Will KDE Applications stay in extra-repository, and will there be a maintainer for the packages? Or will KDE Applications move to community-repository, maybe for a TU to maintain the packages? Or it`s all undecided ? Thanks Wulf

[arch-general] NodeJs default behavior

Hey everyone, has there been some change to NodeJs with the latest versions? I'm running a node app with version 0.10.25 on an Ubuntu Server and one with 0.10.35 on my Arch. With the same script I'm getting debug output on Ubuntu but not on Arch. Best regards, Heiko

[arch-general] keymap corruption
by Michael Dahlberg 12 Jan '15

12 Jan '15

I recently had a hard drive failure which resulted in my system having a corrupted /var. I removed /var and recreated it from backups, however now i seem to have a unique problem: when I log into the console the backspace and ESC keys do not function correctly. Both keys just result in advancing the cursor. Strangely, if I boot into the rescue.target, the keys work correctly. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Mike

[arch-general] Is there a non file manager daemon for automounting like the ones provided by "pcmanfm -d"
by Javier Vasquez 11 Jan '15

11 Jan '15

Hi, I've been using "pcmanfm -d &" in my ~/.xinitrc, as suggested by [1]. However I would like something similar without the need of the file manager. Hopefully something that shows in the tray bar what's mounted and allows umounting. I don't use a DE, just plain fluxbox, and having to use whether pcmanfm or thunar or any other file manager with daemon capability is something I would like to prevent. I read about ldm, suggested by [2], but it doesn't seem to offer what I'm looking for. Seems to be something to automount with particular uid/gid only. though I might be wrong. Any suggestions? Thanks, -- Javier [1] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/File_manager_functionality#File_manage… [2] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/List_of_applications#Mount_tools
