Dear all, This is becoming curiouser and curiouser. Used the Arch Rollback Machine to repeat the upgrades (without [testing]) and got all the way till today without the problem reoccuring. Some more selective upgrading revealed the problem to be libsystemd, systemd, and systemd-sysvcompat (upgrading from 219-6 to 220-1 brings the problem back reliably). I am reporting this at https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/45343

Set it up, but nothing seems to change after reboot in terms of this behaviour. However it is possible there is a bigger issue in my recent updates, as I now have segfaults on the latest intel driver updates.

[arch-general] Packaging question: namcap lib xyz is an uninstalled dependency
Hi peoples! Greets from sweltering Plymouth UK! Been trying to create pkgbuild for binary package coming in .deb file. It has got 2 shared libraries included and try as I might I keep getting this from namcap: Referenced library 'libotav2.so.1' is an uninstalled dependency Referenced library 'libotav1.so.1' is an uninstalled dependency I have tried splitting up the package with one packaging libatov2.so.1, the other libotav1.so.1, setting depends= in the main package, and provides= in the libotav I have also tried looking in the namcap sources but my python is zero. And Googled, loads of Googled before asking here. Can you please direct me to the solution of this problem Thank you kindly Andy Pieters

I do not have any experience with any of these, but am using this cli-client [0] which works very well and is actively (though unofficially) supported by a Google insider. It is also available in the (AUR)[1]. It does not do background syncs as it's creator prefers a vcs-like push & pull workflow. It's definitely light and allows you to download only exactly what you need without waiting for the rest to finish.

[arch-general] Perl 5.22 in [testing]
Hi, Perl 5.22, as any other new perl version, requires all modules that are not purely perl code to be rebuilt. We did that for all packages in our repos. For a list of upstream changes please refer to `man perldelta`. Since users probably installed some from AUR or with CPANPLUS::Dist::Arch, I wrote a script[1] that generates a local rebuild list. To use it you will also need this[2]. Note that: - some modules simply don't support being loaded directly (Irssi, SVN::_Core, Tk::Entry among others) so also run the test (`perl -M$module -e1`) manually before reporting. - site_perl overrides vendor_perl so if you fix an error for a module in site_perl you have to run the script again afterwards. [1] https://git.server-speed.net/users/flo/bin/plain/find-broken-perl-packages.sh [2] https://git.server-speed.net/users/flo/bin/plain/module-to-dist.pl Binaries linking with libperl.so will also need to be rebuilt. You can use lddd from devtools to find those. Please report any issue you encounter. signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
