guys, I think the nautilus INSTALL file has a problem. The latest update resulted in: (3/3) upgrading nautilus [#######################################] 100% /tmp/alpm_1J0ybD/.INSTALL: line 4: gtk-update-icon-cache: command not found -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Do this: 1. Set up krb5.conf to enable proxiable and forwardable tickets 2. Set up ~/.ssh/config to enable "GSSAPIAuthentication" and "GSSAPIDelegateCredentials" 3. Use "kinit" from this krb5 package to get a new TGT 4. Use the ssh client from this openssh rebuild to connect to a server that support GSSAPI auth On some, but not all, ssh server implementations, GSSAPI auth will fail, and it will fall back to password auth. The server will log this: sshd[3822]: Forcing password authentication because no credentials delegated When using the heimdal-based builds, GSSAPI auth would work in all cases. It's entirely likely that only very old ssh servers show this problem, as that's what I'm seeing so far. Possibly there is some confusion with the new "Okay as delegate" ticket flag, which heimdal didn't support at all, and MIT krb5 only supports enough to parse and report, but has no support for setting. I don't consider this important enough to block the release of these packages, but I wanted to mention it in case someone else cares more than me.

[arch-general] Hamster removed?
by rikutheronin＠gmail.com 04 May '11

04 May '11

Hi! I'm not sure if this is the proper list to ask this, but I'll try :-) I just notice that the package "hamster-applet" is no longer avaiable. I can understand that the applet will no longer works with GNOME3, but that package included more stuff like: - An standalone application, without any need of use gnome-panel - A console client Is there any chance to create a new package that includes those applications? I use hamster a lot and will love to still have it from Arch repositories. Thanks! -- Pablo Recio Quijano Desarrollador Django Yaco Sistemas - http://www.yaco.es/

[arch-general] bugtracker registration
by Steven Vancoillie 04 May '11

04 May '11

Hi, I would like to report a bug and thus I followed the procedure for registering on the Arch Linux Bugtracker. However, I haven't received any confirmation code (e-mail) after about a day. Can it be that this takes such a long time? Re-registering doesn't work, it says the username is already taken. On the other hand, when trying to use the lost password retrieval, it tells me the user does not exist. Thank you for your help. Steven

by David Rosenstrauch 04 May '11

04 May '11

I'm not loving this GNOME3 upgrade. Latest irritation is that all the gtk apps are no longer picking up the qtcurve theme that I use on all my apps to make a uniform desktop. Is there any way to enable this? Thanks, DR
