Is there a reason why boost libraries are stuck to version 1.72 when 1.74 are already available? I cannot find anything on the bug tracker. Thank you. -- Best Jayesh Badwaik

[arch-general] Missing sys_siglist declaration
by Hauke Fath 02 Oct '20

02 Oct '20

Hi, on an arch machine updated yesterday, my XEmacs does not build because the 'sys_siglist' declaration is gone from <string.h>, where the strsignal(3) man page says it should be. Searching the usual suspects didn't bring up anything. What did I miss?

[arch-general] [Pencil2D] package update (and attached PKGBUILD)
by Popolon 29 Sep '20

29 Sep '20

Hi all. The package Pencil2D is flagged out of date since few weeks, the PKGBUILD update is relatively simple. I didn't know where to propose updated PKGBUILD version. I tried forum first, a moderator said me to report a bug, then I open a bug, and a moderator closed the bug saying to never report a bug but to flag the package as outdated (I said the package was already flagged), and he send me to this mailing list, I hope this is the good place? The new version of Pencil2D is a 1 year update with lot of new features, that could be useful for Arch user that want to make 2D animation (there are also at least OpenToonz, Krita, Blender Grease Pencil and Synfig) and bug corrections. So the patch in the current PKGBUILD is no more needed. So there is only to update version number to 0.6.5, to update the source tarball sha25sum to 31903c54c8f0a79385cc5f519b380d26524219984e619204820b946c96fc2482 and to remove the patch and associated prepare() function. I added the working version of the PKGBUILD for this version to this mail. I used it for several weeks, it works very nicely. Don't need to credit me, just hope it will be updated for other Arch users. Regards, Popolon.

[arch-general] extundelete depricated?
by Javier 27 Sep '20

27 Sep '20

I noticed extundelete utility to recover deleted files for et3/ext4 was removed from the repos. It wasn't added to AUR either. So it sounds it won't be maintained anymore... Is it because it's considered depricated, or superseded by perhaps ext4magic, or just that no maintainer likes it? Just wondering. I see ext4magic available, so it provides similar functionality, and can be picked as an option... Thanks ! -- Javier
