I'm very well aware of it. However, when I install package with AUR, my system
does not make any distinction between it and other stuff from 'official' repos
- that's why I want to be able to install from AUR, having proper deps
resolution etc. hoping that 'package manager/AUR_helper' have trust that I know
what I'm doing. ;)

I was using yaourt since my very beginning of using Arch, but it was (is)
broken not being able to properly handle deps for Haskell packages. (check
http://archhaskell.wordpress.com/) and that's why I switched to clyde.

Thank you. I'll take a look at packer as well.

[arch-general] mounted samba shares causing hang on shutdown/reboot

2011-08-19 Thread David C. Rankin

Guys,

  I'm wondering if I need to change the order of the processes in the DAEMONS 
line in rc.conf to prevent a hang on reboot/shutdown if smb shares are mounted. 
 It is almost a 3 minute hang:


Aug 19 16:42:01 providence postfix/qmgr[1316]: A178EA64CD: removed
Aug 19 16:43:13 providence smbd[29587]: [2011/08/19 16:43:13.608240,  0] 
printing/print_cups.c:110(cups_connect)
Aug 19 16:43:13 providence smbd[29587]:   Unable to connect to CUPS server 
192.168.7.15:631 - Connection refused
Aug 19 16:43:13 providence smbd[11057]: [2011/08/19 16:43:13.623014,  0] 
printing/print_cups.c:487(cups_async_callback)
Aug 19 16:43:13 providence smbd[11057]:   failed to retrieve printer list: 
NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL

Aug 19 16:44:49 providence shutdown[30753]: shutting down for system reboot
Aug 19 16:44:49 providence init: Switching to runlevel: 6

  Apparently, the unmount attempt happens immediately after the postfix 
shutdown and the total time between the time of hang and time of shutdown is 
2:48 seconds which seems like forever. (it's probably actually a 2:30 sec. 
timeout, with 18 secs burned somewhere else)


  The DAEMONS line I'm using is:

DAEMONS=(hwclock syslog-ng network hal @netfs @ntpd @sshd @crond !avahi-daemon 
@mysqld @postfix @cups @samba @apcupsd)


  From the error, it looks like smbd attempts to contact cups and gets a 
connection refused (I have 1 smb printer defined). I don't know whether this is 
a bug or a problem with the shutdown order. If I manually unmount the smb drives 
before calling shutdown, then there is no hang. However, I shouldn't need to 
manually unmount the smb drives as that should be handled automatically.


  I can obviously write a simple script that is called on shutdown that does 
the unmount, but I would rather see if I can identify and fix the issue 
correctly. Anybody have any thoughts on whether I should move things around in 
the DAEMONS line? Anybody else seeing this with mounted smb shares? The shares I 
have are these:


//phoenix/config on /mnt/phx-cfg type cifs (rw)
//phoenix/samba on /mnt/phx type cifs (rw)
//phoenix/david on /mnt/phx-david type cifs (rw)

  Any thoughts?  This isn't something that just started today. It has existed 
for a number of months, but I've just lived with it as this box is rarely 
rebooted except for kernel updates...

[arch-general] problems with vim

2011-08-19 Thread Uli Armbruster
Hi list

I wanted to ask here first, because it might be a configuration problem on my 
side, which I tried to, but couldn't figure out.

My problem is, in vim the right and left arrow keys don't do anything in 
command mode (in insert mode everything's normal). The up and down arrow keys 
work as expected. I know in vim it makes more sense to use hjkl to navigate, 
which I prefer most of the time, but sometimes - I don't really know why - I 
use the arrow keys.
To investigate further I moved ~/.vim and ~/.vimrc, still the same. I tried it 
with a new user, still the same.

Is this a bug? Can somebody confirm this behavior?

[arch-general] Framebuffer Reset

2011-08-19 Thread pants
Hello,

I run my desktop from the framebuffer, and often use the fbdev mplayer
video output to watch video.  I generally do this by sshing in to the
machine via my laptop, running

# export DISPLAY=localhost:0.0

to get video to output to my desktop's display.  Occasionally, while
watching something, my ssh connection gets killed.  My dhcp might renew
on a reconnect, or the shell running mplayer might get killed, but
the mplayer process dies without closing correctly.  As a result, the
last frame rendered by mplayer is stuck on the screen.  Changes to the
framebuffer will remove this image locally, but areas that can't be
cleared (like a small strip on the bottom of the screen) retain the
image indefinitely.  Furthermore, using fbdev again with mplayer causes
each subsequent final frame to become similarly stuck, regardless of how
mplayer is quit. 

Is there some way to 'reset' the framebuffer and stop this without
restarting?

Cheers,

pants

This is a wrong example :) Those commands are different.
"echo $(cat file) |" provides an input without "\n"

this isn't doing quite what you think.  ${@:--Sayu} is functionally
equivalent to ${1:--Sayu} ... it's only testing the first argument
though it probably works fine for the use case.

and you can use the bash keyword `command` to suppress function lookup
and avoid a loop, but still use $PATH.

Well, it was buggy as it couldn't handle some files, like packages with
'+' in their names (example: lv2-c++-tools). Not sure this is fixed in
the meantime. I use slurpy since a long time, it works with every
package (it just has search, download and upload, no building included).

I will try to explain my point with an example. Take a bash script which
needs to find some string into a file.
Let's do this the ugly way:
echo $(cat $file) | grep -q "%PROVIDES%.*$1"
Let's do this the correct way:
grep -q "%PROVIDES%.*$1" $file

If both take the same resources to execute, you may say: OK, the first one
is ugly but I don't really care because both give the same result and there
is no performance impact.
Now, if the first one appears to be way slower than the second one, the
situation is different because not only it impacts the developer (complex
code hard to understand and maintains) but it also impacts the end user
(have to wait longer than needed).

This example was one real example taken from yaourt at the state it was in
January 2010. There is nothing ugly in the way it will not work or break
your system. It was just ugly and slow code.

Definitely a valid opinion, as abstraction might be convenient or

I agree that your arguments have a valid point of view all the way up
to this point where you lost me.
For me, "lack of quality" is in the same category as "lack of quality
impacts speed"
For example, lets have the same badly written algorithm compiled with
no optimization and the other being compiled with -O999 ZOMG!!
It doesn't matter to me if one ruins your system faster, it will still
do the same thing.
This is why I think the "lack of quality impacts speed" issue being
completely different from "lack of quality" is invalid.

A few months ago I wrote a little bash function to put in my bashrc.
Maybe you'll like it.

# Better yaourt
yaourt () {
if [[ $# == 0 ]]
then
/usr/bin/yaourt -Sayu
else
/usr/bin/yaourt $@
fi
}

So yaourt with no arguments updates my system. I use it about twice a day.

I don't like any overlap of functionality between pacman and my AUR helper,
too, and I use cower for that purpose. You still have to do makepkg and
pacman -U (or makepkg, repo-add and pacman -Syu) manually, but that's my
preference anyhow, and it's easily scripted.

Well you're right, by itself the quality of the code is not an argument for
the end-user. But when the lack of quality impacts speed and this can be
supported by figures then I'd say it makes things completely different.

That said, the situation may have evolved since and it may not be relevant

I've used yaourt for a couple of years now.
It has always worked for me for the most part, and having a common
command for everything is very convenient for me. alias y=yaourt and
you have one of the simplest ways to do a complete update of your
system, y -Syua

I always ignored people's comments because the majority argues that it
is "either too slow", or the "code is ugly".
These same people would probably be horrified looking through vim's code :P
These points alone do not make a very convincing argument for me,
which is why I grew numb to them.

I've been using pbfetch, and it works pretty well for me. I'm of course open to 
trying some of these other packages as well. The really great thing is that you 
can have them all installed, and then uninstall the packages you don't need 
once you've made your choice.

Can you run 'ps fx' as root while pacman hangs here and post the output?

Hi,

Today when I have tried to update the kernel  pacman got stack:

>>> Updating module dependencies. Please wait ...
>>> Generating initial ramdisk, using mkinitcpio.  Please wait...
==> Building image from preset: 'default'
  -> -k /boot/vmlinuz-linux -c /etc/mkinitcpio.conf -g /boot/initramfs-linux.img

After this point nothing happen.
In everything.log I get infinite amount of the following message:

"

Does anybody know what is going on?

At the time of packer first release (January 2010), yaourt was slow and had
some awful code in it.
yaourt also made the choice to accept arguments where it add no value (like
yaourt -R, only delegating to pacman).

I haven't tested yaourt since. I was using packer and now have switch to
pacaur. Both are fine but I find pacaur handling in a better way dependency
resolution on AUR packages.

I'm pretty content with bruenig's packer myself, but I recommend you
read the wiki entry about how to use ABS - all aur helpers are in a
first stage about automation of downloading source tarballs and
makepkg -i. you could pretty easily automate the main tasks of that in
a script and voilà - you got your own aur helper.
