[arch-dev-public] Finalizing the package signing process

2011-10-30 Thread Pierre Schmitz
Hi all,

it's about time to finalize our signing policy to get all our packages
properly signed as soon as possible. Note that this is just about
signing the package itself. How we will manage our keyring and sign that
one using master keys is a different story.

At first please have a look at
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:Signing_Packages and
let me know if there is anything wrong or unclear. I would like to
present this little Howto to the TU so that community packages can be
signed as well.

To speed things up I'd like to let dbscripts enforce signed packages.
This means that from now on no new packages can be uploaded that don't
have a signature. We may give the TU a ew days mroe time as this will be
new to them.

If you just agree with all this send a +1.

Greetings,

Pierre

+1 to enforce signed packages. This has been discussed for months and creating

 That's the whole discussion about this one. Seems to have been applied,
 but reverted because the reasoning behind the patch was unclear. Someone
 claims it's documented in some errata, but doesn't say which one.
 
 That's unfortunate.
 
 So far I've been able to find the bug in our tracker, with a link to the
 kernel.org bugtracker that's down:
 https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/19234
 
 Oh yeah, the kernel.org bugzilla, still down. We could add it back I
 guess, but this time with some proper references in the PKGBUILD (like
 the above two links).

Forgot to say this:

Jan, can you please re-submit that patch to the appropriate mailing
lists, and explain the whole situation? IMO it is a critical error in
the upstream driver and must be taken care of upstream.

I'm building my packages exclusive on pkgbuild.com and there I can't
sign packages. If we do the switch in dbscripts then pkgbuild.com
should be ready to generate signed packages. As far as I know it isn't

You can build your packages on pkgbuild.com, then download them locally 
and sign them with gpg --detach-sign package.
After, you have to send .sig files (i686 and x86_64) on pkgbuild, then 
execute extrapkg or similar command.

Downloading them locally isn't really a solution. Too low bandwidth and

If dbscripts get updated without pkgbuild.com supports signing, then I
can't build packages.

 If dbscripts get updated without pkgbuild.com supports signing, then I

I am sorry, but I have no solution for this atm. And who knows how long
it takes until gpg is able to do key forwarding and remote signing. So I
don't feel we should wait for that. And honestly: the build server with
that much people having root access is quite a problem anyway.

Also if you don't even download (and install) some your own packages,
maybe a better solution would be to find someone else to maintain them.

Pierre

Not all packages have to be tested, e.g. a large rebuild against a new

That's only as an example.

Just in case it can help, I also made a script [0] that updates the
svn tree from alderaan to a local tree and rsync the remote packages
to a local folder.

I then just need to install, test and if OK I can extrapkg
'blahblahblah'  from my local machine.

It also works with community packages.

(Don't forget the configuration file [1] if you want to test)

So far the only solution is to download the finished package, sign it
locally using gpg --detach-signfile  and then uploading the
signature back to pkgbuild.com so commitpkg will find it.

There has been some discussion [1] about remote signing for GPG, but I
think they dropped the idea.

Kerrick Staley last comment [1] on this thread was that they will go
with the hash-signing implementation. But it seems that there is
nothing new on this topic.

I'd be much more interested in a patch that actually lets you do remote 
signing than a discussion that went nowhere...

But then again, that patch went nowhere in the end too as far as I can tell.

[arch-dev-public] SLiM up for adoption

2011-10-30 Thread Gaetan Bisson
Hi devs, Hi TUs,

I am orphaning SLiM (login manager): upstream is dead, patches keep
piling up, and I actually stopped using that package a while ago.

As far as I know, our current package has only one unfixed bug:

https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/26579

Anyhow, I will move that package to the AUR in a week or so unless a dev
or a TU wishes to adopt it.

Cheers.

Re: [arch-dev-public] Finalizing the package signing process

 Hi all,

 it's about time to finalize our signing policy to get all our packages
 properly signed as soon as possible. Note that this is just about
 signing the package itself. How we will manage our keyring and sign that
 one using master keys is a different story.

 At first please have a look at
 https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:Signing_Packages and
 let me know if there is anything wrong or unclear. I would like to
 present this little Howto to the TU so that community packages can be
 signed as well.

 To speed things up I'd like to let dbscripts enforce signed packages.
 This means that from now on no new packages can be uploaded that don't
 have a signature. We may give the TU a ew days mroe time as this will be
 new to them.

 If you just agree with all this send a +1.


+1

Eric

 Greetings,

 Pierre

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] crda 1.1.2-1 and wireless-regdb 2011.04.28-1

2011-10-30 Thread Thomas Bächler
Upstream updates.

Please excuse the late regdb update, it seems I never adopted the
package and never got the out-of-date notification.

 Otherwise I would say +1, but for now -1.

Ditto.

I normally only download and test packages that I use and/or are
important/popular, other updates are merely minor version bumps, and
sometimes I am bandwidth-constrained to download anything more than a
few megs.

But I hope I'm right that most of my packages are lean, in which case
downloading the packages and uploading only the sigs then won't be
much of a problem. And anyway, there was a time when there was no
pkgbuild.com and I had to build packages locally and on slow networks,
so I think I can manage.

In general, +1.
