Arch Linux - Todo Lists

Arch Linux [/] Home Packages Forums Wiki Bugs Security AUR Download Package Todo Lists Todo lists are used by the developers when a rebuild of a set of packages is needed. This is common when a library has a version bump, during a toolchain rebuild, or a general cleanup of packages in the repositories. The progress can be tracked here, and completed todo lists can be browsed as well. 658 todo lists, viewing page 1 of 14. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 Next > Name Creation Date Creator Description Package Count Incomplete Count Kind Status Unreproducible ruby packages 2021-05-27 Jelle van der Waa This todo list is for unreproducible ruby packages mostly due to Makefile.in or other files which should not be required for packaged ruby modules. According to our packaging guidelines the `ext` directory is not required anymore after the installation step. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Ruby_Gem_package_guidelines Example of non-reproducible package https://reproducible.archlinux.org/api/v0/builds/104045/diffoscope As this is not a rebuild, packages can directly go in either [community] or [extra]. 30 19 Task Incomplete Cleanup of python-setuptools dependency for console scripts 2021-01-13 Felix Yan In recent versions of setuptools and Python, console-script entry points are using stdlib importlib by default, thus python-setuptools (provider of the pkg_resource module) is no longer a runtime dependency. Please check your package. If python-setuptools is only listed as dependency or optional dependency because of its console scripts (not in install_requires for other reasons, for example), please consider moving it to makedepends or removed, respectively. Packages go to stable repos directly. 250 58 Task Incomplete GTK 2 EOL 2020-12-20 Alexander Rødseth GTK 2 has reached its end of life: https://blog.gtk.org/2020/12/16/gtk-4-0/ Many of the listed packages can support GTK3 or 4 just by tweaking the build configuration. Please check if it is possible to upgrade packages to GTK3 or GTK4 (which are pretty similar to each other, in terms of API), or drop the dependency on the "gtk2" package, if it's an optional dependency. Just mark packages as complete if it's not feasible to patch, drop or upgrade them. A build-time gtk2 replacement that is a compatibility layer for using gtk3 is available as the "gtk2-compat" package. It may only work for some projects. Upgraded packages can be pushed directly to extra/community. Thank you! 105 94 Task Incomplete Remove usage of makepkg subroutines from PKGBUILDs 2020-01-17 David Runge The use of makepkg subroutines has been discussed in an old ticket [1]. In 2017 a warning about this was added to namcap and recently the wiki has been been updated to reflect this [2]. A list of packages (with false positives) can be found here [3]. Time for a cleanup! As a sidenote: If you find, that you are shadowing a test run in check() (e.g. `test || warning "Test is broken"`) please consider *why* you are doing this and whether only a subset of the tests can be run instead (e.g. because parts of the tests are integration tests anyways, that can not be run in makechrootpkg). [1] https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/43502 [2] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_package_guidelines#Package_etiquette [3] https://pkgbuild.vdwaa.nl/?q=(msg%20%7Cmsg2%20%7Cwarning%20%7Cerror%20%7Cplain%20)&i=nope&files=.*%2Ftrunk%2FPKGBUILD&repos= 244 24 Task Incomplete Conversion of programs that use Python 2 to Python 3 2019-12-23 Chih-Hsuan Yen Python 2.7 branch is going to be EOL'ed on 2020-01-01 [1]. A previous Todo [2] suggests to remove unused Python 2 libraries. In this Todo, I suggest to investigate programs that still use Python 2, either as runtime dependency or build/check dependencies, and see if it's possible to use Python 3 instead. Notes for some packages are available at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/User:Yan12125/python3-conversion . Whenever you have changed a package to use Python 3, feel free to either move the corresponding row to the Done section or simply remove the row. Also, feel free to update notes if there are something new (e.g., a new Python 3-compatible version released, patches merged, new patches proposed, ...). Package can go directly into the repo; [staging] is not necessary. [1] https://devguide.python.org/ [2] https://www.archlinux.org/todo/die-python2-die/ 203 12 Task Incomplete gsl 2.7.1 rebuild 2021-12-12 Antonio Rojas Packages go to [staging] 26 0 Rebuild Complete Remaining rebuilds for Python 3.10 2021-12-03 Evangelos Foutras These are the last remaining packages that need a rebuild for Python 3.10. They either fail to build or have test failures in check(). If a package in this list also exists in staging, it does not mean it's done; if it's marked as failed on [1] then it likely has test failures. (In this case, the staging package was built with --nocheck to satisfy other packages' checkdeps and avoid dependency cycles, and therefore needs a proper rebuild.) Please either push rebuilt packages to staging/community-staging or commit a fix to /trunk and retry the failed task on [1]. Build logs of the failed rebuilds are available on either [1] or [2]. Some packages might require fixes to one or more of their dependencies that have already been rebuilt.

Rebuilds go to [community-staging]. 4 0 Rebuild Complete libgit2 1.3.0 2021-11-20 David Runge libgit2 1.3.0 introduces a soname change: libgit2.so=1.2-64 -> libgit2.so=1.3-64 Rebuilt packages go to [staging] and [community-staging]. 18 0 Rebuild Complete assimp 5.1 rebuild 2021-11-20 Sven-Hendrik Haase To staging. 5 0 Rebuild Complete stk 4.6.2 2021-11-19 David Runge As stk introduces a soname change on every release, it's time to rebuild all dependents again. Updated packages go to [community-staging]. 5 0 Rebuild Complete rtmidi 5.0.0 2021-11-18 David Runge rtmidi 5.0.0 introduces a soname change. Rebuilds go to [community-staging]. 6 0 Rebuild Complete Rebuild packages for soon revoked packager key 2021-11-10 David Runge All packages currently still signed by the PGP key BD27B07A5EF45C2ADAF70E0484818A6819AF4A9B need to be rebuild by other packagers, as that key is about to be revoked. 54 0 Rebuild Complete openvdb 9 rebuild 2021-11-06 Sven-Hendrik Haase Staging! 4 0 Rebuild Complete cuda 11.5 rebuild 2021-10-31 Sven-Hendrik Haase To testing 10 0 Rebuild Complete gupnp rebuild 2021-10-25 Jan Alexander Steffens libgupnp-1.2.so.0 -> libgupnp-1.2.so.1 libgupnp-av-1.0.so.2 -> libgupnp-av-1.0.so.3 libgupnp-dlna-2.0.so.3 -> libgupnp-dlna-2.0.so.4 libgupnp-dlna-gst-2.0.so.3 -> libgupnp-dlna-gst-2.0.so.4 Rebuilds go to staging. 11 0 Rebuild Complete yaml-cpp 0.7 2021-10-24 Sven-Hendrik Haase Staging time! 11 0 Rebuild Complete LLVM 13 2021-10-23 Evangelos Foutras libLLVM-12.so -> libLLVM-13.so libclang.so.12 -> libclang.so.13 libclang-cpp.so.12 -> libclang-cpp.so.13 I added llvm12 for bootstrapping the rust/ldc/crystal rebuilds, by rebuilding them in staging to use llvm12{,-libs} and then reverting back to regular llvm. llvm12 can also be used for packages not ported to LLVM 13, as long as they don't also use other LLVM components like clang. 53 0 Rebuild Complete libavif rebuild 2021-10-21 Bruno Pagani libavif.so=12-64→libavif.so=13-64 Packages go into [staging]. 4 0 Rebuild Complete VTK 9 rebuild 2021-10-19 Bruno Pagani Lots of libraries have soname bumps, so rebuilding into [staging] 5 0 Rebuild Complete opencv 4.5.4 2021-10-15 Antonio Rojas openCV 4.5.4 broke ABI without a soname bump which causes crashes in applications, see https://github.com/opencv/opencv/issues/20878 Rebuilds should go straight to stable. 19 0 Rebuild Complete libvpx and libx264 rebuild 2021-10-12 Maxime Gauduin Newest libvpx and libx264 both have soname bumps, let's handle both of them. Packages go to staging. Note that we have some overlap with the libffi rebuild so this should wait until libffi is done. libvpx.so=6-64 -> libvpx.so=7-64 libx264.so=161-64 -> libx264.so=163-64 31 0 Rebuild Complete libffi 3.4 rebuild 2021-10-09 Felix Yan libffi.so.7 => libffi.so.8 Packages go to staging repos. 161 0 Rebuild Complete portmidi 236 2021-09-29 David Runge The original portmidi upstream has been long unmaintained. Recently the mixxx team picked up the project and is now actively maintaining it. The new upstream release introduces soname changes: libportmidi.so -> libportmidi.so=1-64 libporttime.so -> libporttime.so=1-64 Rebuilds go to [community-staging]. 10 0 Rebuild Complete Electron 15 2021-09-28 Nicola Squartini Switch incompatible packages to depend on electron14. 3 0 Rebuild Complete libgexiv2 0.14.0 2021-09-20 Alexander Rødseth libgexiv2.so.2.0.0 → libgexiv2.so.2.14.0 Rebuilds go to [staging]/[community-staging]. Thanks. 15 0 Rebuild Complete libgit 1.2.0 2021-09-10 David Runge The upgrade to libgit 1.2.0 introduces a soname change: libgit2.so=1.1-64 -> libgit2.so=1.2-64 Rebuilds go to [staging]/[community-staging] 17 0 Rebuild Complete switch to espeak-ng 2021-09-02 Alexander Epaneshnikov espeak is unmaintained for a long time. espeak-ng is a new active fork. we need to switch dependent packages to espeak-ng and then remove espeak from the repository. 6 0 Task Complete Electron 14 2021-09-02 Nicola Squartini Switch incompatible packages to depend on electron13. 6 0 Rebuild Complete msgpack-c no longer ships C++, only C interface 2021-09-01 Konstantin Gizdov msgpack-c v4+ now ships separate C-only libraries. The new C-only lib is in [community-testing] msgpack-c 4.0.0-1. The C++ library is available in [community] msgpack-cxx v4.0.2-1. It is a header-only C++17 compatible library. Please have a look at the changes and decide if a rebuild and change of depends is necessary. 6 0 Rebuild Complete msgpack-c has split msgpack-cxx in a separate header-only lib 2021-08-30 Konstantin Gizdov msgpack-c v4+ will ship separate C and C++ libraries. The C++ library is already available in [community] msgpack-cxx v4.0.1-1. It is a header-only C++17 compatible library. Please have a look if any of your packages are affected by this change. 6 0 Rebuild Complete libnsl 2.0.0 2021-08-19 David Runge libnsl 2.0.0 introduces a soname bump and removes NIS+ support (if there is any issues due to the latter, please reach out on IRC). libnsl.so=2-64 -> libnsl.so=3-64 Rebuilds go to [staging]/[community-staging]. 23 0 Rebuild Complete capnproto 0.9.0 2021-08-19 David Runge capnproto 0.9.0 introduces soname bumps for all of its provided shared objects. Rebuilds go to [community-staging]. 4 0 Rebuild Complete Rebuild against new release of libmilter 2021-08-18 George Rawlinson New upstream release of libmilter. Since upstream isn't interested in applying shared library patches, it's still a static library. 5 0 Task Complete libiio 0.23 2021-08-09 David Runge As the past times we had troubles with dependants upon minor version upgrades of libiio we're playing it safe this time and rebuild them all. After some removed and retagged 0.22 release, now 0.23 is out. Rebuilds go to [community-staging]. 4 0 Rebuild Complete Change dependency from python-setuptools_scm to python-setuptools-scm 2021-08-06 Morten Linderud Swap python-setuptools_scm for python-setuptools-scm in the correct dependency array 11 0 Task Complete fluidsynth 2.2.0 rebuild 2021-07-23 David Runge fluidsynth 2.2.0 introduces a .so bump: /usr/lib/libfluidsynth.so.2 -> /usr/lib/libfluidsynth.so.3 Rebuilds go to [staging]/[community-staging]. NOTE: Ensure that csound is moved last with the correct rebuild, as it is currently also in the hdf5 rebuild: https://archlinux.org/todo/netcdf-480-hdf5-1121-rebuild/ 21 0 Rebuild Complete CUDA testing stack 2021-07-20 Konstantin Gizdov Rebuild the relevant packages atop the NVIDIA testing drivers which support CUDA 11.4 in order to test and weed out issues until the official release of the stable NVIDIA are available. 11 0 Rebuild Complete netcdf 4.8.0 + hdf5 1.12.1 rebuild 2021-07-18 Bruno Pagani libnetcdf.so=18-64 → libnetcdf.so=19-64 hdf5 still affected by FS#60567, even if for once they managed to not break ABI in a patch level release (well after that was pointed during rc stage) Since 80% of the list is common, let’s do only one rebuild. Packages go to [staging]/[community-staging]. 30 0 Rebuild Complete fmt 8.0.1 rebuild 2021-07-17 David Runge The fmt upstream forgot to increase the version number for their inline namespace in version 8.0.0, which has been fixed in 8.0.1: https://github.com/fmtlib/fmt/releases/tag/8.0.1 This requires a rebuild of all packages depending on libfmt.so to not run into undefined symbol errors. Rebuilds go to [staging]/[community-staging]. 15 0 Rebuild Complete libuhd, libvolk, gnuradio rebuild 2021-07-17 Kyle Keen Sonames have been bumped. If your package only depends on scripts, instead of linking, then just mark as complete. Otherwise, [community-staging]. 15 0 Rebuild Complete imath 3.1 2021-07-14 Antonio Rojas Packages go to [staging] 19 0 Rebuild Complete mbedtls 2.27 2021-07-09 Antonio Rojas libmbedcrypto.so.6 → 7 13 0 Rebuild Complete glslang 11.5 rebuild 2021-07-04 Sven-Hendrik Haase Whoosh into staging! 8 0 Rebuild Complete openexr 3.0.5 rebuild 2021-07-02 Antonio Rojas Packages go to [staging] 21 0 Rebuild Complete git.archlinux.org deprecation 2021-06-27 Kristian Klausen git.archlinux.org will be deprecated (soon)[1] and the following packages need to be updated to use their new upstream. [1] https://lists.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2021-June/030466.html 10 0 Task Complete fmt 8.0.0 rebuild 2021-06-25 Maxime Gauduin New fmt comes with a soname bump. Packages go to staging as usual. 15 0 Rebuild Complete wlroots 0.14.0 2021-06-24 Maxim Baz New wlroots release is in community-staging Please check your packages and push a rebuild or a new version when available. Thanks :) 4 0 Rebuild Complete yara 4.1.1 2021-06-07 Levente Polyak yara soname bump, packages go to [staging] 2 0 Rebuild Complete 658 todo lists, viewing page 1 of 14. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 Next > Copyright © 2002-2021 Judd Vinet , Aaron Griffin and Levente Polyák .
