Re: [arch-general] Python nightmare

Hi, My guess is this isn't the real Randall DuCharme, visible on LinkedIn and in previous years on Arch's mailing lists. CC-ing ‘Randy DuCharme ’ is also odd. That's caused by DMARC munging of mailman, you should see the same e.g. with my mail. Best regards Bjoern

Re: [arch-general] cups hangs while adding a new printer

Hi, I have a 2017 Lenovo ThinkCentre M800 that I'm using to try to install Arch on a hard drive. I've formatted the drive (under Arch, using fdisk, with gpt partition, etc.), gone through the installation up to the point where I run grub-install with this command: grub-install --target=x86_64-e
