I then tested the build of groff, gocr, latex2html, dvd-slideshow, and vor against the netpbm-svn build I installed and those builds went fine. I then tested the build of the trunk version with all but one, netpbm-gcc4.patch, the patches contained in the fedora patchset and the build went fine. One of the patches provides for not building the docs which produces a package of 1.2M on my x86_64 machine. I'm using the svn version so I can build Prima from CPAN which wouldn't build against 10.57, and don't seem to have any problems running the svn version and will continue to do so. I also search the arch-dev public mailing list for anything on netpbm updates and netpbm being a dep for groff but nothing about the need for updating the package. Since there is currently no maintainer for the netpbm package and based on this data what would be the appropriate course of action in getting the Arch repo packages updated to a later version of netpbm, or is it necessary? Flagging it out-of-date is usually sufficient. Anyway, I've handled the last netpbm updates so I'll do this update too.

This new backend is not available in the current octave arch package, because the fltk library is required to be installed at build time. I read that the FLTK backend is rather faster (for 3d plots) than the gnuplot backend, and also some options (e.g., Postscript level 3 or pdflatex outputs of the print command) are only available with the new backend. I installed fltk from extra and recompiled octave. The new backend seems to work fine and it is also enables to zoom (or rotate) and pan the current plot. I don't know if the addition of the FLTK backend has been discussed in the past and abandoned for some reasons, but I see no issues in including it, since the default backend seems to still be gnuplot. So, adding the support for the FLTK backend would be as simple as putting fltk in makedepends and optdepends.

The package `emacs-color-theme' uses the stable release, released in 2006. In 2007, there's a commit fixing a bug (for me, the bug causes conflict with Gnus), but the upstream didn't release a new version since then. So I would suggest on using a snapshot version --- I fixed that bug myself. Following is more about that bug and how I fixed it: Function `replace-in-string' is provided in XEmacs but not GNU Emacs, so the author of color-theme defined his own. Yes, he checks whether the function exists. Gnus also defined one, but the name is `mm-replace-in-string'. Gnus checks whether `replace-in-string' is present, and if it does, the `mm-' is just an alias to that. All right, Eh? But the author of color-theme defined the function different from XEmacs did. So Gnus was confused, then it complained about something like wrong number of arguments when using it --- for example, when EasyPG is trying to verify a PGP/MIME signature. I fixed that by renaming the defun in color-theme.el to `color-theme-replace-in-string', by adding a sed line in the build() function before the compilation.

Lensfun is a new dependency, not sure it is needed
(http://ufraw.sourceforge.net/index.html).
The last configure option simply didn't exist and I removed the sed line
(assuming upstream know what they're doing).
In my opinion the package name should be ufraw rather than gimp-ufraw
since this package enables ufraw standalone, in batch-mode and as
'plug-in' for cinepaint and gimp.

There's already an updated package in the staging repo for an exiv2

Yours, is not a bug. is more a impossibility to split 'any' packages like that. makepkg supports such splits but our server scripts doesn't handle them at all. -- Ionuț Indeed, but can still create a separate 'any' package like we do with some games. Just a split package won't work there. FTR, there used to be a seperate 'any' imagemagick-doc packge but I just removed it because it was too much work and it was often forgotten when other devs were rebuilding or updating imagemagick. Plus, it's only 3MB.

That means output libraries like sdl (which, by default, tries pulse before alsa) will start the server instead of failling back to other output methods. gnome-media, when compiled with PulseAudio support, will be inseparable from it. E.g., gnome-volume-control will only control PulseAudio. So as I see it, it would be hard to make PulseAudio part of ArchLinux without making it mandatory. In this situation, we should go with a case by case approach. If adding pulseaudio support to a package doesn't force the use of a pulseaudio setup, then we build with it and add a pulseaudio optdepends (or depends as required). In cases like gnome-media, we provide a pulse and non-pulse version of the package. Having both of these versions in extra would enable us to use split PKGBUILD to build them. So it will add no extra work for you. Of course, we have to wait what the other devs have to say. IIRC the past pulseaudio discussions, the main stumbling block (I don't recall other issues) was that no dev wanted to maintain it. As you are interested in it and with the jr dev scheme, that issue seem to be resolved.

This group would also include a pulse-asoundrc package containing a pulse-configured asound.conf, as well as depending on alsa-plugins. Should I go ahead with this? Any suggestions? I would suggest to apply for a jr. dev position so that the pulseaudio stuff could be moved to extra. That would save us from duplicating work by having both pulse and non-pulse packages. BTW, does adding pulse support make it a depends or optdepends? I would guess it depends on the package.

It seems like it's the norm nowadays rather than the exception. I am wondering if it's really only the users that are to blame.. or if Arch is also to blame. Or if Arch was supposed to be an elitist distribution and is victim of its success. I think the answer to that is in the question: What did we do different previously that resulted in far less of these issues? My impression is that nothing has particularly change in terms of how rebuilds are handled. If anything, the whole process has become a lot more streamlined and cases of missing a package rebuild are now almost non-existent. So the cause must be... A change in user-base? Maybe just an increase in user-base resulting in more people who think Arch should be done their way and not the Arch way? I don't know whether you (I don't mean you alone) are just being cocky or blind or I don't know what, but I've seen this attitude all over the place and I don't get it. By this attitude I refer to the total ignorance regarding these serious problems, bye developers and regular users on IRC or right here. It might be being elitist, but saying so does not explain why there were not such big issues earlier in Arch's history. Maybe the target of competent linux users does not accurately reflect the user base. So, should the target change or should the user base change? I agree that Arch should stay focused on competent Linux users, but the update process does have flaws. The fact that users can do incomplete updates (because devs don't set dependencies strictly enough) is one that I can think of. On top of that, no one wants to check the mirror status every time they do an update, it's not unreasonable to expect the package manager to keep things working. Mirrorstatus doesn't really help you, I've played with it during the big upgrade because pretty much everyone just said something along the lines of: look at the startpage, dumbass and even a dev couldn't come up with a better practical suggestion and didn't know what the mirrorstatus info really meant.. It doesn't know when a mirror is in sync, what it presents to you is probably the last sync starttime or something similar. The only information you can get from the mirrorstatus page is when the mirror started its last sync and how fast the connection is more or less. As far as mirror are concernced, we (the devs) are aware of the problem and knew that the move of the rebuild out of testing would create havoc on the mirrors. However, we are working toward fixing that problem: http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2010-February/015335.html So we shouldn't have these mirrors sync problem anymore.

The first stable version of the new raytracer, YafaRay 0.1.0, was released in October 2008. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YafRay - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YafaRay So obviously, it's a replacement. Just deal with as if it were a name change. If no Dev/TU is interested in YafRay/YafaRay, then just remove it from the repo. It doesn't make sense in doing the replacement. If someone is interested, they should speak up and adopt/replace yafray. In fact, we could just move ahead and remove yafray. Yafaray can always be added in the repo later on if someone wants to maintain it.

I am not even attempting to add my MBR /dev/sda1 (/boot) to the RAID1 array. Crazy simple, huh? You might even ask well why am I even asking for help then...well because I hate the Arch installer and not because its CLI only. No, I love the simplicity of the installer and not being graphical but the RAID configuration is a complete mess. I am booting from a fresh 2009.08 Netinstall ISO disk. I select the 1st option and login as root (requires no password). Before I just junp into the installer (/arch/setup), I need to configure a few things: 1 - I use 'cfdisk' to configure /dev/sda /dev/sdb. - /dev/sda1 = 4096 MB (bootable) 83 - /dev/sda2 = The rest of the disk (selecting 'fd' type) - /dev/sdb1 = 4096 MB (SWAP) 82 - /dev/sdb2 = The rest of the disk (selecting 'fd' type) 2. I need to load my RAID1 modules using the following command: #modprobe raid1 3. Now I need to create my RAID1 mirror using the following command: #mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=1 --raid-devices=2 /dev/sda2 /dev/sdb2 4. Check to make sure the RAID is rebuilding and both devices show [UU] #cat /proc/mdstat So now everything is working fine and going as it should be via the Wiki. Now the Wiki in my opinion is way too bloated and tries to do too much so I am cutting and pasting what I feel applies to me. Which is why I am showing you everything I am doing here in this email to see why I am failing. Now I need to update the /etc/mdadm.conf file with my new RAID1 I created with the following command: #mdadm -D --scan /etc/mdadm.conf And I also verify that my info was correctly populated into the /etc/mdadm.conf file using the following command: #cat /etc/mdadm.com So now I am ready to run the /arch/setup command from the CLI to begine configuring the install / my new system. 1 - Select Source = I configure my install method and all my network variables 2 - Set Clock = I configure my Time Zone and stuff 3 - Prepare Hard Drive(s) = Here I can skip to section sub menu 3 since I already did most of this above. I simply now just select mount points for my existing partitions: sda1 = /boot (ext3) sdb2 = swap (swap) md0 = / (ext4) 4 - Select Packages = I select the base packages and what I feel is required for my setup. 5 - Install packages = I let the system download and install the packages from my mirror. 6 - Configure System = This is where I feel my confusion comes into play. Perhaps I am missing something: */etc/rc/conf = I simply add the changes below: - In 'Hardware' section add MODULES=(md_mod raid) - HOSTNAME=mypc - sshd added to the DAEMONS line */etc/mkinitcpio.conf - add 'mdadm' on the 'HOOKS' line after sata before filesystems as noted in the Wiki. */etc/resolv.conf - Check to make sure DNS looks good...it does. */etc/hosts - Add my FQDN here as follows: 127.0.0.1 mypc.mydomain.tld mypc *Root-Password - Create a secure root password. Now that is it. I select 'Done' and let it build 'initcpio' images. 7 - Install Bootloader = Here I select Grub and then review the default menu.lst it produces. I then select /dev/sda to install Grub on. Grub was successfully installed Now I am done and back at the bash shell logged in as root. I then run the following command: #cp -a /etc/mdadm.conf /mnt/etc/mdadm.conf to make sure when the system boots, it is aware of my RAID1 mirror. Now I reboot because I assume I am done. Here is my error: ::Running Hook [mdadm] Waiting 10 seconds for device /dev/md0 Root device '/dev/md0' doesn't exist, attempting to create it ERROR: Failed to parse block device for ids for /dev/md0 ERROR: Unable to detect or create root device /dev/md0 You are being dropped into a recovery shell Type reboot to reboot Type exit to try and continue booting If the device /dev/md0 gets created while you are here, try adding 'rootdelay=10 or higher to the kernel command line. ramfs$ _ In /etc/mkinitcpio.conf, add raid1 raid456 to the MODULES array and regenerate your initcpio image.

It was originally installed as a dependency for some other, unidentified package. And it turned out to my surprise that even I still had that package installed! That prompts me to ask the following: Are there other such obsolete packages that typically should no longer be installed on a clean Arch Linux system? I am not in favour of automating their removal, of course, but it would be useful to collect a list of such things that we could put in the wiki and/or our monthly newsletter. Another example that comes to mind is the obsolete file /etc/udev/udev.rules that I also still had until recently, and which I have removed after Thomas' suggestion. Please submit your suggestions for the forthcoming Arch Ghostbusting Day (aka The Great Halloween Cleanup)! :) libdownload - replaced by libfetch as pacman download backend csup - relaced by using rsync for abs I removed these long ago, but... Although, all these should be detectable by pacman -Qqtd (maybe not libdownload as it was part of base). the above gave me quite a substantial list! Probably I should run this more often. Most of what is listed by pacman -Qqtd can indeed be safely removed. But sometimes the output can be surprising: I've got nautilus in there, which clearly is not something I would want to remove from my Gnome desktop :) Well, this is the kind of mess that one can expect on a system that has been installed nearly four years ago! F Try with pacman -Qm. That might work better if you don't have a lot of custom/AUR packages installed.

Thanks for applying the patches to devtools.
I have a question. Currently, sub packages can't have a different
architecture field than the main package. Are there plans to add this
possibility in the future? This could come in handy with packages that have
huge data files that are architecture independent and can be split into a
sub package with arch=('any').
I'm mainly asking because if the above gets implemented, commitpkg will need
to be slightly modified in order to be able to locate -any sub packages (and
I have a feeling that it was able to do this before my patches were applied
:d ).
There's already a feature request in flyspray:

In order to pass dependency check, postgresql-libs need to be updated too.
You can find the PKGBUILD in abs.
postgresql 8.4 has a soname bump. You'll also need to rebuild all
packages that depends on it (or on postgresql-libs). That's why it's
taking time to have the update in the repo.

In that case, they can be excluded and, sometimes, provided in a separate package at the maintainer's discretion (e.g. qt and qt-doc).

I'm having network problems (x86_64, forcedeth driver) with the kernel in testing. Upon boot up, netcfg fails to start the network. I just get a - No connection error message. After the system boot is completed, restarting net-profiles still fails. I have noticed that if I disconnect and reconnect the ethernet cables, restarting the daemon succeeds and network is working fine. This happened with both -2 and -3 kernels. Does anyone knows what might be causing this? Does anyone else is experiencing this? BTW, the kernel works fine on my i686. Eric

Yes and no. arch packages are not exactly small. I run a squid cache and a cache object size of 128KB serves me pretty well. To accomodate all arch packages, this setting has to go up to may be 150MB(for openoffice). If the cache start caching every object of size upto 150MB, it won't be as effective or will baloon dramatically. Not to mention the memory requirement that will go up too. I'm under the impression that you can configure it in other ways and not just space, therefore letting it work for Arch packages (say, from your favourite mirrors) and not from everywhere. Yeah, it does increase the requirements, but I'm sure it's handleable. But no doubt http access will be dramatically fast :) Not to mention, squid is only http caching proxy, not ftp. Squid is a caching proxy for the Web supporting HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and more. -- their website. squid is great but I doubt it can help with multiple computers with arch. It can handle only download caching but thats not enough. (snip) Yeah, some decent ideas there. -AT Another solution is to have all computers using only one pacman cache located on a single computer via nfs. So once a computer has downloaded a packages, all the other ones can grab it directly from the local network. If you have i686 and x86_64 computers, pacman can't differentiate between the two arches if the packages name doen't contain the arch (old pkg and community pkg). It reports a md5sum mismatch. You just need to say 'yes' to redownload the package when that happen. If you want to get rid of that problem, setup two caches: one for each arch.

I might be wrong but I think pacman is downloading the packages directly to the cache directory. This might cause problem if the download starts on one host and is started on another host before the download is done. pacman will then report the package as corrupted but doesn't try to redownload it automatically. It won't do any harm but it can get anoying if you have a large number of systems. Sébastien I believe you are correct. I only used that setup to share source cache when building packages. However, I was the only user and was building on one machine at a time (I only have two). So I didn't encounter this multiple download problem. Perhaps the method I proposed is more suitable for cases when there only one or very few users. Eric

i've never had a problem until the 1.6.1-1 PKGBUILD, which adds the lines:
libtoolize --force || return 1

these added lines produce:

as i'm pretty clueless vis-a-vis makefiles and the autoconf system,
could somehow point me in the direction of a fix?
