Testers needed on arm-testing branch

We are in need of testers for our arm-testing and arm-unstable branches.
So if you are adventurous and want newer software quicker, we would love for you to help us test out the new packages in arm-testing branch.

All you have to do to switch to this branch is:

  • Run this command to switch branch: sudo pacman-mirrors -aS testing && sudo pacman -Syyu. This will generate a new mirrorlist for you, sync your databases with the new mirror and update your system using the arm-testing branch.

We would then love for you to give feedback in our update posts in #arm:testing-updates. That way we can better find and fix bugs, before they hit arm-stable branch. Thank you!


  • No issue, everything went smoothly
  • Yes there was an issue. I was able to resolve it myself.(Please post your solution)
  • Yes i am currently experiencing an issue due to the update. (Please post about it)

Known Issues and Solutions

This is a wiki post, please edit it when you find a solution to an issue you encountered

brcm-patchram-plus and pi-blueooth are in conflict
See this post for workaround:

DP Alt Mode no longer works on Pinebook Pro
This is a known issue, the hacky patch we had to enable this has broken in recent kernels.
@tsys and Ayufan are looking into it.
As a workaround you can install linux-pinebookpro again.

Old Issues

Plasma Mobile Keyboard
The plasma mobile onscreen keyboard does not work with QT 5.15.0.
This is fixed by updating to kwin 5.19.3-1.1.

PinePhone uboot
This update to the PinePhone Uboot package (2020.04-2), changed how the DTS is loaded from the kernel, since the Kernel DTS for the Pinephone also changed. When doing this update on the PinePhone images from Alpha5 and back, please make this change to the /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf before rebooting:

  • sun50i-a64-pinephone.dtb to sun50i-a64-pinephone-1.2.dtb
  • root=LABEL=ROOT to root=LABEL=ROOT_MNJRO

Manual interventions:
The nss and zn_poly packages prior to version 3.51.1-1 and version 0.9.2-2 respectively, were missing a soname link each. This has been fixed in 3.51.1-1 and 0.9.2-2 of these packages, so the upgrade will need to overwrite the untracked files created by ldconfig. If you get any of these errors

nss: /usr/lib/p11-kit-trust.so exists in filesystem
zn_poly: /usr/lib/libzn_poly-0.9.so  exists in filesystem

when updating, use

pacman -Syu --overwrite /usr/lib/p11-kit-trust.so --overwrite /usr/lib/libzn_poly-0.9.so

to perform the upgrade.

Device stopped booting after Uboot update
The uboot update included a change to the extlinux.conf file. This change will be incompatible with the old 1 partition layout of some devices.
So if you are updating installs made with images 20.02.1 or older, you need to apply this fix before rebooting!
To fix this please edit your /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf file and add 2 periods in front of each first slash, like so:

KERNEL ../Image
FDT ../dtbs/ #etc.
APPEND initrd=../initramfs-linux.img #etc.

Save the file and reboot.

error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: brcm-patchram-plus and pi-bluetooth are in conflict
i have this error on rpi4 4gb
which one should i remove?

You should remove pi-bluetooth.

Hi, I can’t remove pi-bluetooth because rpi4-post-install depends on it, should we remove that too?

I have the same problem.

Preparing…
Synchronizing package databases…
Failed to prepare transaction:
conflicting dependencies:

  • brcm-patchram-plus and pi-bluetooth are in conflict

No issues on the Pinebook Pro.

spyder threw a weird error after the update:

brcm-patchram-plus appears to be installed in the images for some reason but not enabled. The dependency in rpi4-post-install will be removed in it’s future package release. brcm-patchram-plus willl be the default service for bluetooth in the future. This expanation is in a nut shell. Full explanation was posted here:

brcm-patchram-plus-conflict-with-pi-bluetooth

For now for the 3b+ & 4b devices only:

sudo systemctl disable brcm43438.service
sudo pacman -S -dd  brcm-patchram-plus firmware-raspberrypi
sudo systemctl enable attach-bluetooth.service

For now for the RPi’s pi 400 device only:

sudo systemctl disable brcm43438.service
sudo pacman -S -dd  brcm-patchram-plus-pi400 firmware-raspberrypi
sudo systemctl enable attach-bluetooth-pi400.service

For now for the pi3b device only:

sudo systemctl disable brcm43438.service
sudo pacman -S -dd  brcm-patchram-plus-pi3 firmware-raspberrypi
sudo systemctl enable attach-bluetooth-pi3.service

Reboot for the new bluetooth service to be picked up.

No issues on the Amlogic S905X

the service pi-bluetooth doesn’t exists on my rpi4, other than that the update is now ok!

That is right. I put the package name instead of it’s service. I will update up above.

Thanks!

Remove the stale link:

sudo rm /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/brcm43438.service

Has anyone else found that Firefox has been crashing their Pinebook Pro after the latest update. It’s happened to me three or four times now. Each time the whole system just freezes and I have to hit the power button to reset. Nothing suspect in journalctl -xe.

Hi,

Odroid c4 up to date, it works.

Hi,
no, I can’t confirm this.
Firefox 83.0-1 runs stable on my pinebook pro.

Thanks for the instructions. For pi3b there is a typo, the packet name (in the 2nd line) is
brcm-patchram-plus-pi3
not brcm-patchram-plus-pi3b.
Once I found this out it worked like a charm.

Thanks. Corrected…

Darksky’s instructions below explain how to easily fix the bluetooth package clash (confirmed for raspi3b).
