There is thunderbird-bin in the AUR which repackages the official
upstream release of version 78.*

Correct me if I'm wrong, but couldn't we package thunderbird 78 in
something like testing or the AUR for people who absolutely need 78, and
then keep the stable version how it is?

Looking at the release notes for 78.1.1

looks like they've gotten OpenPGP working but they're still testing it.

I heavily rely on gpg, and getting something still work in progress doesn't 
sound good.  Not sure if the OpenPGP functionality on 78.1.1 (current release) 
offers something more mature, because 78+ versions do not support Enigmail 
anymore it seems...

[arch-general] Thunderbird 78

2020-08-14 Thread Xorg via arch-general

Hi,

Thunderbird 78 is available since 1 month 
(https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/78.0/releasenotes).
Is there any reason the package is stuck to version 68? Can someone 
update this package?


Thank in advance.

Are you using --daemon on your openvpn config file?


I don't think there's anything much that could be disturbing it. I'm using 
systemd-networkd for everything + iwd for wireless.



Well, you can paste your configuration (minus keys and user/auth).

The output from OpenVPN indicates that the client is started within the first 
few seconds from when I give the `systemctl start openvpn-client@whatever` 
command (see previous email). The tun interface is created, opened, the routes 
are received and added to the routing table. All the usual stuff. Of course, I

See above.

It really can't be that the network is not ready.

When that happens, I can see from journalctl that the client actually starts in 
the first few seconds after the systemctl command. But then, the command 
doesn't terminate for two more minutes (with no further journal entries).



Openvpn has quite good logging capabilities that you can put to use here.

Without knowing more, my first guess is that you still don't have connectivity 
when that first openvpn client starts.
2 minutes matches exactly the 120 seconds default ping-restart parameter. So, 
what happens is, the client starts, you have
no connectivity then, after two minutes, ping-restart kicks in, and your 
connection gets through.

So, get a network manager that can properly trigger network-online.target. Or, 
if your network manager is triggering it, then
it means your network is not quite ready when it does.

Re: [arch-general] pacman -Syu ~ 1 yr. of packages, tty1 hangs after root clean, tty2 console login OK - how to fix?

I fixed the netctl issue. It seems the netctl interface with systemd changed
and the normal subsystem service file has been turned into a service.d
directory containing 'profile' files. A reenable of the profile removed the
old symlinks and service file and replaced them with the service.d directory 
using

# netctl reenable the_profile

Network is up and happy again.

Additionally, I've done a completely additional reinstall:

# pacman -Qqn | pacman -S -

All goes well, no errors, but the boot still hangs on tty1 and no GUI or X is
every started though sddm says it is running.

I think it is time to wipe the slate clean and reinstall unless anyone has a
better idea?

The original install was from 2016 so it was a bit old, but still working well
before the ill-fated update.
