If you want to hack the kernel, you should probably go directly to
kernel.org (also, search for Eudyptula).
Regarding the difference between hibernation (suspension to disk)
and suspension to RAM:
Suspension to RAM just means turning off peripherals like disk and
display while keeping the RAM on. Thus from your perspective you
should just see the screen go black (and hear the disk spin down,

You can use, eg., the file command to check if executables are stripped.
(with something like "file /bin/executable")
But gdb already tells you that no debugging symbols were found for the
executable.
Thus, you either need install an lxrandr package with debugging
symbols (with -g an
BTW, maybe arandr would suffice as a replacement for lxrandr?
After glimpsing through your makepkg and PKGBUILD:
Are you sure you are using makepkg-debug.conf instead of makepkg.conf

Since you are a beginner, maybe it would have been better to first
just compile lxrandr manually, instead of with makepkg.

I would just like to note that SHA-2 hashes are inferior to Keccak and
to BLAKE2. So better not to spend effort migrating to SHA-2.
I do agree that using md5 is absurd, but putting effort into using
sha-2 seems like a waste when Keccak and BLAKE2 are both faster and
more secure than the old hashes.

To clarify, md5 *is* unsecure and is even slower or not significantly
faster than hashes from the Keccak and BLAKE2 families; using
signatures would be a plus but signatures are not an argument for md5.
Do you get core dumps? Try doing running coredumpctl (possibly with
root rights). Of course, probably the backtraces would not be useful
without the debugging symbols.
To mount a root GPT partition which resides on an encrypted disk, one
needs the kpartx tool to make the mapping for the partition (the kernel
does not independently make those for partitions on device mapper maps,
which is what a dm-crypt decrypted device is). Thus kpartx needs to be

You are probably thinking about an encrypted GPT partition. What I am

That is awesome, Robin, thank you!

It seems that partprobe indeed also works for device mapper maps.

Bash does not run some POSIX scripts fine. See

for example. In that case an executable named ^ can not be called.

It seems like your container is set up with too low of a RLIMIT_CORE
rlimit for core files, causing the error when sudo attempts to
increase it.
Maybe you messed up a config file for Docker?

I think Linux and its userspace (musl and glibc) try the hardest to be
POSIX. Don't they get the first implementations of new POSIX APIs,
compared to Darwin or the BSDs?

Hello,
Why is it that makepkg strips symbols by default, and many packagers
even make extra effort to get packages stripped; instead of building
with "-g"? Even Go software, which by Go's design makes use of

Regarding the firefox example, are the split debugging symbols files

What Geo said.
I have not fully understood your situation, but can you not just
change the PATH environment variable?
Today pacman surprised me after updating my system: turns out nothing
on my installation depended on inetutils any more, so I removed it,
even though it was there forever. The following reboot proceeded fine.
I'm curious if somebody knows which packages dropped it as a dependency lately.
