[arch-general] Can't change tty's since last update
by Jeanette C. 30 Jul '19

30 Jul '19

Hey hey, since my last update, today, I sometimes can't change ttys. Using showkey I have checked that both the alt key and the f-keys are coming through. Might this be a kernel issues. I believe I came from 5.0.x and am now on 5.2.3. May it further be an indication that my jackd settings have lead to major xruns on input, using jackd1? Does anyone have an idea, maybe even where else to look for suspects?

[arch-general] pango 1:1.44-1 Renders Bitmap Fonts as Boxes.
by Ralph Corderoy 30 Jul '19

30 Jul '19

Hi, To save others' time, on upgrading to pango 1:1.44-1 today my terminal emulator and other programs displayed empty boxes instead of bitmap-font glyphs. This is due to deliberate dropping of support by Pango. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pango/issues/386 I don't think xterm(1) uses Pango given ldd(1)'s output, and it's happily displaying nice crisp glyphs. -- Cheers, Ralph.

Dear Adérito, Arch Linux is, by design, a Linux distribution specifically for advanced Linux users, not for beginners. Therefore, the installation is more difficult (but also more flexible, if you know what you are doing). I assume that in the talkingarch variant this is similar, or the same - difficult for beginners of Linux. I also understand that you still wish to try out this Linux variant, and once it is installed this will be easier than it is now. It would perhaps be useful to find a user of Arch Linux locally, in your city, who can assist you during installation. There are Arch Linux user groups in many cities around the world.

Hi Yesterday, i tested Gnome 3.32 for a friend. I would like to point out that Gnome-control-center crashes. I discovered it was because of Connman running. Solution 1 : stop temporarily Connman Solution 2 : replace Connman with Network-Manager This bug has been reported upstream 6 months ago https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/issues/342 -- Best regards Maderios

[arch-general] Remove Clisp from repository
by Gilgamesh 24 Jul '19

24 Jul '19

Hello, firstly, I don't know where I can send this message, so sorry if this is the wrong place. Clisp (an ANSI Common Lisp interpreter) hadn't received a new release since 2010-07-07 and the last update on the extra repo was on 2019-01-11, so I thought as we have others better options than Clisp, like sbcl on the extra repo, that has an active development, may be better if the Clisp package is removed from the arch repositories.

[arch-general] SQLite Session Extension
by Adam Levy 22 Jul '19

22 Jul '19

I'm using SQLite extensively for a programming project and today I noticed that sqlite is not built with the Session Extension enabled. https://www.sqlite.org/sessionintro.html https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk/PKGBUILD?h=packa… Interestingly enough, I can use the C interface for sessions without issue. But when I use the sqlite3 CLI the .session command is not available. I went ahead and rebuilt the package with the options mentioned in the first link to enable the sessions extension, and the .session command was then available. I was wondering if this was an extension that is ever likely to be enabled in the build? Also perhaps someone more knowledgeable could explain why the C interface to Sessions work, but it is not available in the CLI interface? Forgive me if this is not the proper channel. I could have messaged the maintainer Andreas Radke directly but wasn't sure of the appropriate convention for such a question. Thank you Adam Levy
