And even more so when community packages are added... The svn repo needs a restructuring I think.

But it would be the correct way to handle things like that, and would put some noise away from this list. BTW, the new rules for the TUs would even forbid to put it to community without discussion. The devs might have some similar rules for putting something new to extra. Regards Stefan

[arch-general] howto file missing in intltool
by Lyman 22 Jan '09

22 Jan '09

Hi, I found that the package intltool does not contain the file doc/I18N-HOWTO, which is contained in official release. As this file is supposed to be found locally easily, once it is missing even google can not give out useful hint efficiently. IMHO, this file is vital for the person who is new to gettext/intltool tool-chain (no kidding, more heuristic and important than the manpages). Can anyone here could add this file in next update, please? -- Lyman Li Blog(Chinese): http://lymanrb.blogspot.com Album: http://picasaweb.google.com/lymanrb

[arch-general] Question on traceroute/mtr
by Viv Diwakar 20 Jan '09

20 Jan '09

Hi all, When I mtr to an IP I'm seeing the last three hops as having the identical IP address, and packet loss of 25%, 40% and 100% respectively. I'm not sure if I'm interpreting this correctly - does that mean the last hop is basically looping on itself three times? Thanks in advance, cheers Viv Diwakar

[arch-general] Keyboard repeat in KDE 4
by Leonid Grinberg 20 Jan '09

20 Jan '09

Hello, I am experiencing an odd problem with keyboard repeating in KDE. I am running Vanilla KDE 4.1.3 Every once in a while, the keyboard simply stops repeating (by repeating, I mean when I hold a key down, it only sends the keystroke once, so if I hold down "f" it only shows "f" rather than "fffffffffffff"). I have auto-repeat enabled in xorg.conf and the repeat works fine in the virtual terminals. Coupled with this problem is that in systemsettings, the entire configuration for the keyboard is missing. However, in ~/.kde4/share/config/kcminputrc, KeyboardRepeating is set to true. I've also discovered that if I run kcminit, the problem temporarily gets fixed, only to happen again a little while later. Does anyone have any ideas as to what might be causing this? -- Thanks, Leonid Grinberg lgrinberg(a)gmail.com
