[arch-general] protect Template:Article summary link 1x ?
by David C. Rankin 06 Mar '11

06 Mar '11

Guys, I created a template for the Trinity wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Template:Article_summary_link_1x Is there a way that somebody can "protect" it like the other Article summary templates are? For those that use the Template:Article_summary_link feature, this version reduces the padding to allow a condensed link list in the summary. See e.g 'PKGBUILD Downloads' heading in the summary: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Trinity -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

by Rémy Oudompheng 05 Mar '11

05 Mar '11

Hello, GHC has been updated to 7.0.2 in the [testing] and [community-testing] repositories. As with all GHC upgrades, you may have to cleanup globally registered packages if they did not upgrade properly, as well as your local Haskell packages. The usual parts of Haskell Platform (everything except OpenGL) are also in [testing]. Haskell Platform has been updated to version 2011.2. Regards, Rémy.

[arch-general] Missing dependency perl-convert-binhex of perl-mime-tools
by 郑文辉 05 Mar '11

05 Mar '11

The package perl-mime-tools in [Extra] was required by the amavisd-new.While starting amavisd,the error below has occured. > fetch_modules: error loading optional module MIME/Decoder/BinHex.pm: > Can't locate Convert/BinHex.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.1 /usr/share/perl5/site_perl/5.10.1 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib/perl5/core_perl /usr/share/perl5/core_perl /usr/lib/perl5/current/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/current /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/current/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/current) at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/MIME/Decoder/BinHex.pm line 43. > BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/MIME/Decoder/BinHex.pm line 43. > Compilation failed in require at /usr/sbin/amavisd line 197. And then,i check the code of /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/MIME/Decoder/BinHex.pm on line 43,the following code indicate that perl module Convert BinHex is needed. > use Convert::BinHex; I also checked the same debian package in http://packages.debian.org/en/sid/libmime-tools-perl,and the perl-convert-binhex was absolutely the dependency. Now,the perl-convert-binhex is in AUR,so please fix the PKGBUILD of perl-mime-tools and move perl-convert-binhex into offical repo. I have fill out a bug about this in FS#23144,hope someone can solve this problem.

[arch-general] wiki - Add a border to Template:Article summary start ?
by David C. Rankin 04 Mar '11

04 Mar '11

Guys, I was working with Template:Article summary start code for the wiki trying to come up with a way to further define it on the page so you don't end up with it appearing to float transparently over the wiki content toward the bottom of the summary -- especially when there is a line of code that intersects it. Where you have a line of code that crosses the summary, the dashed border for the code just seems to disappear under the background of the summary. I tried color and different combinations of border and think I have hit on something I like better. I've added a border and adjusted the padding slightly. Since changing the summary template changes the look of all pages, I thought I would just pass along the code for Template:Article summary start for you guys to consider rather than changing it on the wiki. <noinclude>{{Template}} '''See [[Writing Article Overviews]] for usage instructions.'''</noinclude><includeonly>{| style="margin-left: 8px; padding: 3px 5px 3px 5px; border: 3px ridge #AFB1B5; border-spacing: 0px 4px; float: right; clear: right; width: 25%" cellpadding="0" |- style="text-align: center" ! style="background: #333; color: white; padding: 3px" | '''{{{1|Summary}}}'''</includeonly> I have a preview on my mediawiki that I setup as a sandbox to keep from destroying the Archwiki with my edits... You can take a look at the proposed border and padding here: http://www.3111skyline.com/mediawiki/index.php/Main_Page If the consensus is you like it, then I can update the template. If you don't - we'll just nix the idea. Nothing ventured nothing gained... Even if you don't like the border, then consider the padding change: padding: 3px 5px 3px 5px; It adds just a bit of slenderness to the content beneath the headings. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

[arch-general] Arch Translation Day, vol 2
by Dan Vrátil 03 Mar '11

03 Mar '11

Hi, the Arch Translation Day was mentioned last month on arch-events ml [1], but really, who reads it :) And because last month not many people participated (because of exam period) we decided to give it another shot when more people might have time. Here in Czech republic we have quite a huge and strong community of Arch users and there is also considerable amount of people who don't speak English well enough to fully understand some articles. Thefore we decided to do Arch Translation Day and translate the most important articles to Czech. Of course, there's no need to make an event in order to create new translations and improve wiki, but massive action will probably attract more people and the result will be better. And when this action can help to improve Czech articles on wiki, why couldn't we call it for another languages too, huh? :) The idea is quite simple: pick an wiki page in whatever language you speak and translate it to your mother language (or any other language you speak too), primary focusing on pages about important issues (beginner's guide, official installation guide, articles about DEs, graphic drivers etc). The event will happen this weekend (5th-6th), and we hope that the result will be the Best Distribution Wiki(tm). Happy translating :)) PS: Pierre mentioned inter-wiki setup, but first someone would have to do it (and I belive only devs can?). When this is set up, it's no problem to migrate the articles to their respective wikis. Dan [1] http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-events/2011-January/000358.html
