by Ryan M. Clough 10 Aug '08

Hey guys, I jsut ordered a fitted, black large size Arch shirt from the zazzle store, and didn't realize until it was too late that I ordered a large when I am actually a small. The order hasn't even gotten to my house yet, but I'm willing to resell the shirt untouched for a fraction of the price so that I don't have to waste my money (completely) on getting another one. Hope someones interested :/

[arch-general] rotate pacman log?
by David Rosenstrauch 08 Aug '08

I noticed that the pacman log doesn't get rotated. Seems like it should, as it could get rather big over time. Any particular reason why the package doesn't provide a /etc/logrotate.d/ script by default? DR

Is Tom K still an Arch dev? I dropped him a couple of emails about the openvpn package (which he's listed as the maintainer on) but haven't heard anything back. DR

by raca 06 Aug '08

Hi! The deluge package http://archlinux.org/packages/extra/i686/deluge/ has been flagged as out-of-date for sometime now. The oficial site provides a PKGBUILD for arch, for the lastest stable version http://download.deluge-torrent.org/arch/0.5.9.4/deluge-0.5.9.4.pkgbuild I'm using and seems to be working fine. If someone wants to upgrade the package you can use this. Cheers

The 8th edition of the "Jornadas Regionales de Software Libre"<http://www.jornadasregionales.org/>, a.k.a. JRSL <http://www.jornadasregionales.org/>, will happen on this August 20, 21 and 22, in Buenos Aires, Argentina<http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=buenos+aires+argentina&ie=…>. The JRSL is a Free/Open Source conference that has been held alternately in Argentina and Uruguay since the year 2000, and both the quality of its agenda and the number of its participants define the JRSL as one of the most important events of the region. This year the conference is organized by CaFeLUG <http://www.cafelug.org.ar/> (the Capital Federal GNU/Linux User Group), usuaria <http://www.usuaria.org.ar/> (the Argentinian Association of Telecommunication and Computer Users) and the University of Belgrano<http://www.ub.edu.ar/>, Zabala 1837 which is hosting the conference. The event will also have other important guests<http://jornadas.cafelug.org.ar/8/en/guests/>, for a total of 80 speakers and 120 sessions. The conference is conveniently scheduled after the end of the Debconf 8<http://debconf8.debconf.org/>, which will happen in Mar del Plata, Argentina<http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=mar+del+plata,+argentina&s…>, and is not too far from Buenos Aires. If you plan to go to the Debconf, or if you just happen to be around Buenos Aires between August 20 and August 22, just remember to register <http://jornadas.cafelug.org.ar/8/en/home.php>and participate in the JRSL too. Sponsorship: Google, RedHat, elserver.com, tecso, core, xtech and backing Thanks, Cristian.
