The script should now also add broken packages for perl 5.20. For some
reason this transition segfaults rather than printing the Perl API
version xx of xx does not match xx error.

 If you get an error that perl-scalar-list-utils can't be found when
 running -Syu install it with -S perl-scalar-list-utils. Seems to be a
 bug in pacman.

Should also be fixed now.

So far no bug reports, I guess I'll move perl once I get enoguh signoffs.

[arch-general] Kernel updated to 3.14.5-1. Now my Lenovo IdeaPad hangs on boot...

2014-06-03 Thread Manuel Reimer

Hello,

I use gummiboot to boot my Notebook. So far all kernel updates worked 
well and I never got any problems, but for some reason the update to 
3.14.5 now causes my system to no longer boot up.


Can someone help me to find the reason for the problem and to get my 
Notebook to boot up again?


Thanks in advance.

Greetings,

Manuel

Try booting in legacy/bios mode. Inside system, try just recompiling kernel
from official pkgbuild.
In my HP laptop, some kernels just refuses to boot in UEFI mode, hanging in
kernel loading (directly or from any bootloader, as refind). Recompiling
kernel or downgrading to previous working fix the issue.

To recover your machine:
1) Boot from Arch ISO. I always have an USB pan with Arch image and
found it useful for emergency cases.
2) Find your system partitions. Use 'lsblk' for this
3) mount your system partition, e.g. 'mkdir system; mount /dev/sda1 system'
4) arch-chroot into your system: 'arch-chroot system'
5) fix your system e.g. downgrade kernel to previous version 'downgrade linux'
6) reboot and enjoy

Did so, now. Now I'm on 3.14.4, again. System boots without any problems.

But why can't I use the current kernel? Does someone here successfully 
boot 3.14.5 via efistub? Bug in kernel? Or maybe bug in kernel 
configuration?

That's the first time, I have issues like this on my laptop.

But thanks to all for the help. Downgrading did the trick and I hope 
that the next kernel will work again...

You provided zero information about your problem so it is hard to tell
what is going on there. It might be a kernel bug, here is a changelog
since 3.14.4  https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.0/ChangeLog-3.14.5
check if you see changes related to your issue.

I get these boot issues sporadically with kernel updates. I keep a
separate boot entry in gummiboot with a kernel I know boots in case I
get hit with it again.

I haven't found anything useful on this silly bug so I'd say this is
your best option if you would like to avoid booting a liveCD every time
it happens.

[arch-general] lxcursor 1.1.14-2 bug

2014-06-03 Thread Eugenio M. Vigo
Hi people,
It seems that there is a nasty bug related to lxcursor 1.1.14-2. Antergos
has made an official announcement advising not to upgrade[1]. Are we going
to do it too or not? Meanwhile, I'm going to ignore the package.

Cheers!

Rather than keep an old kernel around, I just keep grub-efi set up.
Since the issue Mike Cloaked is referring to is the efistub bug, grub or
syslinux (or elilo) continue to work just fine.

So I primarily use gummiboot, but in the gummiboot menu I have ne entry
to get to grub.  From grub I can boot the kernel normally.   But I
haven't been hit by this bug since about 3.9 I think...
