[arch-general] libusbx as replacement for libusb
by Alexandre Ferrando 01 Jun '12

01 Jun '12

As the subject says, with the move from libusb to libusbx I've encountered an issue when upgrading my system with testing enabled: :: Starting full system upgrade... :: Replace libusb with testing/libusbx? [Y/n] y resolving dependencies... looking for inter-conflicts... error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies) :: usbmuxd: requires libusb>=1.0.8 usbmuxd is required by libimobiledevice, which turns to be required by upower ( and others, but only upower in my system) Any idea on how to proceed from this point?

[arch-general] QtCreator help font problem
by GSC 01 Jun '12

01 Jun '12

I noticed in the help section of qtcreator ( version 2.5 installed from repo), the font size is small for me , as usual I tried key combination like(ctrl + +,ctrl+mouse wheel), but doesn't work properly, only the titles get zoomed in. And I changed setting in the options->help->font , also only titles zoomed in. The first page of help section of qtcreator can be zoomed in/out properly. But in many other pages (like QStyle page) only the title can be zoomed in/out. The qtcreator (2.4.1) installed from the official website qtsdk*.run installer doesn't have this problem. Anyone experiencing the same? Should I open a bug report?

[arch-general] Groups and GIDs in PKGBUILDs
by Paul Gideon Dann 01 Jun '12

01 Jun '12

Hi guys, Is there a policy with regards to GIDs in packages? Here's my scenario: When creating a PKGBUILD, I want certain files to belong to the http group. However, if http might have a different GID on other systems, I'll need to chgrp the files in the .install file, rather than the PKGBUILD, to ensure correct behaviour. On the other hand, if the http group is considered a standard group belonging to the base system, it may be safe to perform the chgrp in the PKGBUILD, and I can be sure that it will map to the correct group when it's upacked on another system. The Mediawiki PKGBUILD in ABS performs a chown to http in the PKGBUILD. I wonder if there's an official list of "safe" groups somewhere? Cheers, Paul

[arch-general] Powertop tunables and performance
by Sergi Pons Freixes 31 May '12

31 May '12

Hi All, PowerTOP 2.0 was released some time ago [1]. I've seen that it now has a tunables section where you can turn on/off several optimizations. When running only with battery, I don't hesitate to turn all of them on, but I'm not sure about what to do when I'm running on AC. Do you know if any of the tunables can have an impact on the performance of the laptop? Regards, Sergi

Not everyone is following upstream or the ML, so maybe you could add a few words about systemd *not* replacing our initscripts etc. + a link to some recent discussion and maybe even a link with the udev-systemd merge info. For non-developers for whom English is not the first language, the situation with udev may be a bit unclear but I'm not sure if using simpler language or adding additional explanation is needed or am I just exaggerating :-)

[arch-general] TK related GUI program run VERY slow, any idea?
by goodmenzy＠gmail.com 30 May '12

30 May '12

Hi, all I found that on my arch (64bit), GUI program which use TK lib runs versy slow, and it also suspend the KDE for a long time to response to the keyboard. I found that when those program begin, the hard disk LED blink many many times. The example of that program is amsn and gitk. Any one have the same phenomena? or anyone have some idea about it? TK package version is 8.5.11-1, seems the most recently version. Thanks for any response!
