[arch-general] Mcpp in extra has no maintainer

2008-04-19 Thread Grigorios Bouzakis
As subject. It is also out of date.I assume its kth5's package since it
is a dependency to xorg-server-utils.

Hello,
   
I was glad when you guys (or Jan de Groot, whichever) decided to
 push
the banshee alpha out to extra. However, it is missing many pretty
essential features and it now far behind the releases put out by
 the
banshee developers. I think that either we need to keep up or
 provide
two seperate versions of the package until a final release of 1.0
 is
made.
   
   
Thanks for writing this - I was going to write something along the
 same
lines. the Banshee in the repos is much too basic.
   
  
   Where is your PKGBUILD up-to-date and with essential features, so that
   people interested would know what you are talking about?
  
 
  This is a developer's work.
 
  If Jan requests his help, Justin or Alec can email him directly to his
 e-mail.
  And yours isn't the answer much appropriate, the best way would was
  'use the out-of-date checkbox and not this mailing-list'
 
  /* Leave from your brain this 'patches welcome' mind. They only want
   * to help.   */
 
 But last I checked, the repository browser on archlinux.org doesnt
 support that and the banshee pacakges in the AUR are SVN releases done
 by other users.

 Current banshee version is 0.98.1 and latest is 0.98.3. Even

Oh, they are. Banshee had a complete rewrite and the 0.98.1
version is
really really basic.

0.98.3 adds new stuff like shuffling, video support etc.

I think I would call that major features.

 On top of that none of the plugins from before had been ported yet in
 0.98.1 including Podcasts, DAAP, and MTP/iPod support.


MTP and podcast support - according their website - is not fully implemented
in 0.98.3 neither.


[arch-general] kernel26 2.6.25-1 enters [testing]

2008-04-19 Thread Thomas Bächler

The new 2.6.25 kernel and most of the external modules are in [testing].

Changes:
- Complete configuration overhaul
- Removed phc patch
- Removed mactel patch

The removal of these patches was because a) there are no new patches
available for 2.6.25 and b) I am trying to reduce the amount of
patching, especially if it only benefits a few people or can be
potentially dangerous.

If there are any problems due to the configuration changes or new kernel
bugs, please let me know. If you want to know more about the real
changes, read here: http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_2_6_25

I didn't update any modules, so if there are new versions available for
any, please inform their maintainers. The following modules are
currently broken. I didn't do any research on those yet, so if anyone
knows something, please let me know.

- atl2 (Simo, could you have a look, you must probably update it)
- catalyst
- martian
- openswan-klips
- slmodem (USB symbols are now GPL only, this driver will never work
again unless it's rewritten in userspace - is this only a USB driver or
also a PCI driver?)

I wish you all happy testing.

Stupid me: I was talking about aufs, not atl2. atl2 is fine.

[arch-general] Firefox 3 Beta 5 has No Print Margins tab

2008-04-19 Thread Ralph Alvy
Unlike the Windows version, I find that the Linux version of Firefox 3 Beta
5 has No Print Margins tab. Anyone else confirm this? I downloaded it from
the Mozilla website.
