Quick reminder that the Python 3.10 rebuilds have not been merged into stable yet and care must be taken when updating them. I just had to correct a package that was moved to stable from testing but was built against Python 3.10.

I created a todo for the remaining ~150 packages. Just to emphasize that if a package appears as incomplete on the todo but exists in staging, that's most likely the first package built with --nocheck in order to satisfy other packages' checkdeps. Therefore, it still needs its tests to be fixed pro

For the next few days we'll be doing (semi-automated) rebuilds for Python 3.10. Please avoid adding new Python packages and starting other rebuilds during this time. *This is a strong suggestion in order to minimize the pain of this huge rebuild.* Some PKGBUILDs were modified in /trunk to use the

"Fixed" by repo-adding ipguard to community. I have kept a copy of the broken files db if anyone wants it, but it seems that "ipguard-1.04-6/desc" had 1230 NUL bytes instead of 1230 bytes of package details. On Mon, 30 Aug 2021 at 13:58, Pierre Schmitz via arch-dev-public wrote: > > Hi all, > > S

Jochen Eisinger (Director of Engineering, Chrome) has confirmed that the killing of our API keys is a done deal. He also does not seem interested in the slightest bit to explore possible remedies for Chromium packages. If Chrome's keys are still public in March, I would want to try and use the

It looks like Sync will only work with official Chrome starting two months from now. [1] It is understandable to some extend, perhaps to guard against malicious applications using unofficial (non-Chrome) API keys and tricking users to log into their account. This argument doesn't hold much ground i
