cron-service

Hi, I've seen the mcron package but I don't understand how it gets launched. Should there be a cron-service ? How about the configuration which cron jobs to run? mcron can do both the traditional format and S-Expression format, so it would be possible to directly have the system cronjobs

fstrim and SSDs and cron; was: Re: cron-service

Hi Ludo, thanks. I can confirm that this works! I'm using it to regularily call fstrim (one has to regularily call fstrim on SSDs) so the mcron behaviour of, if an appointment was missed, doing it at the first next availability is good for regularity. The man page says that trimming once a

Hi, this updates ALSA to 1.1.1. I removed alsa-lib-mips-atomic-fix.patch since I don't have MIPS and thus can't test it. So could someone please check it and re-add? I also added alsa-plugins. It contains shared objects to be loaded in asoundrc or user asoundrc. For example it contains a

[PATCH] gnu: wxwidgets: enable extended regular expressions.

Hi, this patch enables extended regular expression support in wxwidgets. It's needed for kicad. I tried to test the other packages that depend on wxwidgets (wxmaxima and audacity) but even without the patch they are in various states of brokenness. See my bug reports on the problems. These
