Arch Linux [/] Home Packages Forums Wiki Bugs Security AUR Download A simple, lightweight distribution You've reached the website for Arch Linux , a lightweight and flexible Linux® distribution that tries to Keep It Simple. Currently we have official packages optimized for the x86-64 architecture. We complement our official package sets with a community-operated package repository that grows in size and quality each and every day. Our strong community is diverse and helpful, and we pride ourselves on the range of skillsets and uses for Arch that stem from it. Please check out our forums and mailing lists to get your feet wet.

Latest News wxWidgets 3.2 update may need manual intervention 2022-07-14 wxWidgets 3.2 provides a Qt frontend in addition to the GTK3 one, so packages have been renamed from wxgtk- to wxwidgets- . The GTK2 frontend is no longer provided. If you have wxgtk2 installed, the upgrade will fail with error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies) :: removing wxgtk-common breaks dependency 'wxgtk-common' required by wxgtk2 In such case, uninstall wxgtk2 first and then proceed with the upgrade. Undone replacement of pipewire-media-session with wireplumber 2022-05-12 Two days ago the wireplumber package was made to replace pipewire-media-session as the latter session manager for PipeWire is considered dead upstream and will see no more releases. Unfortunately, this step was premature. Our pipewire audio packages ( pipewire-alsa , pipewire-jack and pipewire-pulse ) ship configuration that prompt media-session to activate PipeWire's audio features. When these packages are not installed and the configuration is missing, PipeWire can be used for screen recording without interfering with ALSA or PulseAudio. WirePlumber disregards this mechanism and always configures PipeWire to grab audio devices, meaning users of PulseAudio or bare ALSA experience broken audio. … QEMU >= 7.0.0 changes split package setup 2022-05-09 With the update to qemu 7.0.0 the package has been turned into a more fine grained split package utilizing meta packages. The qemu package is now virtually provided by the meta packages qemu-base , qemu-desktop and qemu-full . The functionality of qemu prior to 7.0.0 is replaced by qemu-desktop The functionality of qemu-headless is replaced by qemu-base The functionality of qemu-arch-extra and qemu-headless-arch-extra is replaced by qemu-emulators-full The meta package qemu-full provides all QEMU related packages (excluding qemu-guest-agent ) Keycloak 17.0.1-2 update requires manual reconfiguration 2022-03-25 The keycloak package prior to version 17.0.1-2 was running with WildFly server. Since upstream officially moved to Quarkus distribution , Arch Linux follows this approach. This means some manual intervention is required for the upgrade. The configuration needs to be adjusted from the old .xml format to the new /etc/keycloak/keycloak.conf . Prior to the upgrade, stop the keycloak service, upgrade the package and migrate the configuration before starting: systemctl stop keycloak.service pacman -Syu keycloak # migrate configuration /etc/keycloak/keycloak.conf systemctl start keycloak.service See Keycloak migration docs and Keycloak Quarkus server docs Arch Linux Leader Election Results 2022-02-23 This month we held our leader election, and our current leader Levente Polyák ran unopposed.
