[arch-general] kernel 2.6.37 breaks NFSv4 id mapping
by Andreas Radke 09 Jan '11

09 Jan '11

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdi… kernel 2.6.37 from testing breaks ID mapping for me on the client side (server is .32 LTS). Is our kernel properly configured? I'm getting the 4294967294:4294967294 ownership and the wiki trick from https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=NFS#Ownership_of_mounted_shares_… doesn't work anymore. Downgrading to 2.6.36.3 from core brings it back. Any idea?

[arch-general] Motion
by Andrea Crotti 09 Jan '11

09 Jan '11

I'm trying to setup motion http://www.lavrsen.dk/foswiki/bin/view/Motion/WebHome at the moment since I didn't find anything interesting natively on OSX I was trying to configure inside the virtual machine. (this is the kernel Linux test 2.6.36-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Nov 24 00:39:57 CET 2010 x86_64) With vmware fusion I can easily assign the isight camera to the virtual machine and in fact it works... The problem is that for example I think the rc.d script doesn't work, because when I do /etc/rc.d/motion stop it doesn't kill it, and it stays there until I do killall -9 motion. I also wanted to understand how to record audio also and merge it to the video generated but still no luck, if anyone did I would be grateful...

[arch-general] [signoff] TeXLive packages
by Rémy Oudompheng 09 Jan '11

Hello, I have updated the texlive non-binary packages to track the upstream updates. You will find the detailed list of updated packages in the attached file. The update should remain straightforward. I have cleaned up the install scriptlet, hoping that it still works as intended. Please notify me of any inconsistencies. Rémy.

[arch-general] ibus-table dependency
by Auguste Pop 09 Jan '11

09 Jan '11

Hi, The ibus-table package in community repository has several "python2 fix" sed lines in PKGBUILD. However, the dependency of ibus-table includes python-pyenchant, which is a python3 package. Should we change the dependency into python2-pyenchant? Thank you for your attention. Best Regards,

Looks like my cherokee package needs a rebuild, while php52 does not. Anyone understands what the issue is here, and some packages require a rebuild even without a soname bump in libmysqlclient? Googling didn't turn up anything helpful. :\

[arch-general] kde-4.5.4 loads kde3 kicker and background (even with ~/.kde & ~/.kde4 removed)
by David C. Rankin 08 Jan '11

08 Jan '11

Guys, I need to know if this is an arch packaging issue or a kde.org issue. On my arch box with all kde4 updates through today, I launch kde4 and my kde3 kicker and the kde4 plasma panel are both present: [26k] http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/arch/bugs/kde4/k3+k4_panels-640.jpeg So I moved ~/.kde4 figuring it was the problem and launched kde4 again. Still it pulled in my kde3 kicker and background. Huh? So I moved ~/.kde and ~/.kde4 to make sure there was nothing kde (3 or 4) related in my home directory and I launched kde4 again. To my surprise, kde4 loaded it's plasma panel and then proceeded to load the default kdemod3 kicker and kdemod3 background?? See: [24k] http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/arch/bugs/kde4/k3+k4_panels-new-640.jpg Obviously something is very wrong here. kde4 should not be loading the kdemod3 kicker or background. Looking at the newly created ~/.kde4/share/config files, the kickerrc file contains the following: 15:42 providence:~> cat .kde4/share/config/kickerrc [$Version] update_info=kickerrc.upd:kde_3_1_sizeChanges,kickerrc.upd:kde_3_4_reverseLayout,kickerrc.upd:kde_3_5_kconfigXTize Double-huh? Why would kde-4.5.4 create a kickerrc containing kde3 entries? Let me know if you think this is an Arch packaging issue or a kde.org issue so I know where to file the bug. Thanks. -- David C.

[arch-general] Kernel error
by Jim Burton 08 Jan '11

08 Jan '11

Hi, starting today I have a problem booting my laptop, running Arch with everything up to date. I can boot into the fallback image, but when I boot into the main one, everything hangs after a few moments, with caps and num lock flashing and the keyboard inactive. The screen is displaying lots of stuff like [<c102d908>] ? kmap_atomic_prot +0xc8/0xf0 On IRC it was suggested I rebuild the image with mkinitcpio, which had no effect. Any ideas how I can diagnose and fix this? Also, what exactly is the difference with the fallback image? I can't tell the difference to the one I usually start. Thanks, Jim -- J Burton jim(a)sdf-eu.org

Devs, Any plans about the BKL setting in .37? I've been running the rc's without it for a while now.

[arch-general] gnucash in [extra]
by Ng Oon-Ee 05 Jan '11

05 Jan '11

Hi, I noticed that said package is out of date, am attaching a slightly updated PKGBUILD for the latest version here (compiles and runs fine on my machine x86_64). Normally I'd wait, but the maintainer is Aaron and as I understand he's not very active round these parts anymore. P.S. - hope the attachment gets through. If not, all I did was remove the patch, add libdbi-drivers to depends, and add --enable-dbi to the configure line
