[blfs-support] Fsarchiver password problem(solved)

2020-06-12 Thread Cliff McDiarmid via blfs-support
Right.  Solved the problem.  The permissions were altered(somehow) on sudo.  
Should be: -rwsr-xr-x 1 root root.
 
Sorry about the mail wrong format.

merge request 148, I think

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/polkit/polkit/-/merge_requests/48

and no, it does not appear to have been merged yet.  But it seems to
work fine, although moving to JS68 doesn't seem to allow us to get
rid of python2 for this.

[blfs-support] Fsarchiver password problem

2020-06-12 Thread Cliff McDiarmid via blfs-support
Hi

I don't know whether anyone has experience of running this software on LFS.

On my latest LFS I can not get Fsarchiver to accept the root password and hence I can not see my existing partitions in the software. If I run it from a terminal to get readout I get:

sh: /home//root/.local/share/.en.nfo: No such file or directory
ccrypt: could not read key from /home//root/.local/share/.en.nfo: No such file or directory
chown: invalid user: ‘/root’
chmod: cannot access '/home//root/.config/qt-fsarchiver': No such file or directory
QIODevice::write (QFile, "/home//root/.config/qt-fsarchiver/version.txt"): device not open

This software runs fine on an earlier LFS.  I'm missing something here, but what is it, I'm not aware that ccryp is involved in this software?

 

thanks

Cliff

[blfs-support] polkit update in BLFS Dev

2020-06-12 Thread Ivan Wagner via blfs-support

Hello,

I'm using BLFS Dev and the Change Log says polkit was updated to allow the 
use of js68 and calls the new version polkit-32450615.  Where did this 
new version come from?  Because I don't see this version on the polkit 
gitlab page and there was no BLFS ticket for this update.


Thanks,
Ivan
