Also, the unversioned biblatex-biber (just in case that was not
obvious).


It was not obvious to me.  Do you have any idea how upstream intends users 
to know if they need an update?


I have not put this file on the files repo yet.  I did open a ticket about 
this and the currency scripts.

Re: [blfs-book] [BLFS Trac] #7842: libevdev-1.5.0

[Bruce Dubbs via blfs-book]

  Ah, I suppose you have an older version of linux-api-headers installed.
  Mine is 4.5, which is up to par with upstream's uinput.h, which explains
  why I am able to build the package.


I can confirm.

I also found the same problem when installing libevdev-1.5.0

On my system:
/usr/include/linux/uinput.h (from kernel 4.4,  installed when I upgraded
to glibc-2.23) doesn't declare struct uinput_abs_setup

Running "make headers_install" on current stable kernel (4.5.4) installs an
uinput.h header which does declare struct uinput_abs_setup (and allows
successful build of libevdev-1.5.0)


The discussion was in the trac ticket, but I'll answer here.

The upstream git repo has the file and that allows the package to be built 
on systems with earlier kernels.  The header was omitted from the release 
tarball.


We don't want to modify system headers when just including the file in the 
tarball is sufficient.  We could do that as a patch easily enough or even 
just host the file directly with instructions how to download it to the 
correct location, but we want to give upstream a couple of days to just 
fix the tarball first.

Re: [blfs-book] [BLFS Trac] #7628: Upower-0.99.4 (Test dependent packages)

#7628: Upower-0.99.4 (Test dependent packages)



Comment (by pierre.labastie):

  I think I have a better view of the picture now. There are 2 possible dbus
  interfaces for suspend/hibernate: logind and ConsoleKit2. There used to be
  a third one (UPower), which is now gone.
  XFCE4 is set up to use logind or ConsoleKit (first logind presence is
  tested, then ConsoleKit), so no problem here. Liblxqt is set up to use
  UPower or logind for suspend/hibernate, or a "custom command". A custom
  command using pm-utils, would be easy to design, but what I do not know is
  how to make the system aware of this custom command. All I know is that it
  is kept into a ''msettings("power")'' class. Maybe a config file somewhere
  could allow to set it up.

  I have not looked at lxde yet, nor at kde.

  Note that the reboot/halt buttons work with lxqt, since ConsoleKit is used
  for those.


Thanks for the update Pierre.

[blfs-book] Mailman change

[Bruce Dubbs via blfs-book]

You may have noticed a change in some of blfs-book's mail messages.  The 
From: headers now say


via blfs-book 

instead of the original poster's email address.  The original poster IS 
written to the Reply-To: portion of the email header.


This is a change caused by some email providers (Google, etc) giving 
notice that they will start enforcing DMARC policy changes


https://dmarc.org/2015/10/global-mailbox-providers-deploying-dmarc-to-protect-users/

I'll need to change all the mailing lists eventually but we have a few 
months for that.  Right now the change is only on blfs-book.
