[arch-general] rEFInd has been out of date for awhile.

Hey everybody, refind-efi package in extra has been flagged out of date for about 6 months. The latest version is 0.10.3. There is refind-efi-bin in the aur. I'm just wondering if there are any plans to continue supporting rEFInd officially?

There's a refind-efi package up on the aur as well.

Re: [arch-general] Laptop cooling fan does not work

Those temps do look a bit high. Especially, considering you're not overclocked or pushing the system hard. Try cleaning the fans out, and switching to the proprietary driver. I've always had issues with the nouveau driver. On Aug 26, 2016 5:30 AM, "Rodrigo Rivas via arch-general" < arch-general@ar

Re: [arch-general] bitcoin-qt out-of-date

I just wish rEFInd would get an update. It's been out of date for close to 10 months now. I'm just wondering if having more than one maintainer on a package would help lighten the load. The maintainer of rEFInd has 221 other packages, so it's understandable that something might slip through on occa

I'm in favor of the merge as well. For beginners there are plenty of Youtube videos that cover common desktop setups. That should be more than enough for users who are first learning how to setup a Linux distro. On Thu, Sep 22, 2016 at 6:06 AM, Dario Giovannetti via arch-general < arch-general@arc

Re: [arch-general] Gufw broken by large update.

It's not working for me either. Is gufw written in python? I know python was updated to 3.6 today, breaking a few packages till they get updated for 3.6. On Fri, Jan 6, 2017 at 8:02 PM, Alonzo Gomez via arch-general < arch-general@archlinux.org> wrote: > Hi. > > Gufw was working (xorg only, not u

When I get my system backup, I'll email you on how to configure custom keybindings for Cinnamon. You basically just write a bash script and call it when the key combo is pressed. On Aug 29, 2017 9:27 PM, "beest" wrote: > On Wed, Aug 30, 2017 at 02:24:59AM +0200, Jeanette C. via arch-general > wr

It would be extremely nice to have shallow clone support for some packages. The Unreal git repo requires pulling down 20 gigabytes for a build, taking maybe a half hour each time. On Mar 3, 2018 1:53 AM, "Adam Levy via arch-general" < arch-general@archlinux.org> wrote: > Hi > > I recently came ac

rEFInd has had multiple versions came out, and the mainter has been neglecting to update it for nearly two years. Is there an eta or talk of changing the maintainer for that package? Pretty sure, it builds find as an aur alternative has been up for awhile.
