[arch-general] Inkscape pkg broken
by Cristian Wilgenhoff 06 Oct '08

Hello guys, The inkscape pkg has a shared dependency problem, it needs the gnutls and uses this symbolic link: "libgnutls.so.13". But the in the core repo there is a newest version of gnutls, lets have a look in /usr/lib and we found this: libgnutls.so.26 libgnutls.so.26.4.5 Please try to correct the package as soon as is possible, cuz this app is broken. Cheers, Cristian.

From what I have read of the license, we are allowed to distribute them; however I know nothing about licenses! I have compiled these on my laptop and I get about 2.5MB down with these vs a flex of 900KB - 2.2MB with the b43 module. The ssb module conflicts with this driver, but you need it for b44 (which is the broadcom ethernet driver)! So when using this module you must decide if you want wireless or ethernet (if you use the b44 module, like I do)! I have attached a pkgbuild I started to work on. It is very poorly written, however it is a start, haha!

[arch-general] Plan for python upgrade [was in arch-dev-public]

(is there ?) why not wait until python 3.1 ? i really fear that a great number of software will break because they will try to use /usr/bin/python and except a python 2 to be there. What about the package in unsupported that will not be upgraded asap as the others in extra or core or community.
