[arch-general] autofs orphaned
Hello, I have been using autofs with my local and remote filesystems for some time. With an update to version 5.0 numerous bugs were introduced forcing many users, including me, to downgrade. On May 2nd, Andrea Scrapino who was the autofs maintainer at the time, orphaned the package and asked on arch-dev-public if some other dev would be interested in maintaining the package. Three months later autofs is still orphaned and autofs bugs assigned to BaSH haunt the bugtracker [1]. Will autofs be deprecated? If so, what compatible alternatives are there? Kind regards, JM [1] http://bugs.archlinux.org/index.php?string=autofsproject=1

[arch-general] soundcard order is not maintained after recent updates
i have two soundcards. one is creative soundblaster live and the other is onboard nvidia soundcard. the kernel modules are snd-emu10k1x and snd-hda-intel respectively. Before the recent updates i used to put snd-emu10k1x before snd-hda-intel in /etc/rc.conf in the MODULES array to force the soundblaster card to be soundcard 0. But after the most recent updates this setting does not work. After going through archwiki and googling i found that either i can put options snd_emu10k1x index=0 in /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf or i can create a custom asoundrc file in my home directory which will serve my purpose. so my question is that is the new udev does not load modules according to /etc/rc.conf ?

Do you think your script could use archives created by this one: http://users.archlinux.de/~pierre/tmp/createLinkLists.txt It creates a simple raw format to work with and is incremental and quite fast. One could apply your changes to the getlinks() function and maybe one could run the links file through sort -u. The goal would be to have such archives on the mirror and analyse its data by tools like yours. Hi Pierre, Yes, but the problem is that with my scripts I do more tasks with the extracted info from ELFs. for now, the dt_needed, dt_soname and dt_rpath are only used. The deps are first located with sonames and not based diretly on filenames. So I can know what libs don't have sonames for example, or if new lib have soname but not the old (example of this libs from boost).
