[Unstable Update] 2021-12-13 - Python 3.10 Rebuilds

Hey folks! The only thing I noticed at the moment is that I’m no longer able to manage bluetooth devices via Gnome Settings. I’m fully using Pipewire as media server. I haven’t had a chance to troubleshoot this yet but will do as soon as I can

[Unstable Update] 2021-12-13 - Python 3.10 Rebuilds

Going back to the issue above, it appears to happen only with kernel series 5.15 every time my system boots up from a restart. If I previously power off my system and then I boot it up again with kernel 5.15, then I will be able to manage Bluetooth devices from Gnome Settings. This odd behaviour was introduced for me after this major update, although it never happens with kernel series 5.10. No big deal, but still I think it’s worth reporting this in case someone else experiences the same in …

I confirm the above issue is no longer present for me as of the release of kernel 5.15.15, which makes me think that this regression with Intel Bluetooth was finally fixed upstream.

Before kernel 5.15.15:

Jan 05 23:20:39 manjaro-unstable kernel: Bluetooth: Core ver 2.22
Jan 05 23:20:39 manjaro-unstable kernel: NET: Registered PF_BLUETOOTH protocol family

Jan 05 23:20:39 manjaro-unstable kernel: Bluetooth: SCO socket layer initialized
Jan 05 23:20:40 manjaro-unstable kernel: Bluetooth: BNEP (Ethernet Emulation) ver 1.3
Jan 05 23:20:40 manjaro-unstable kernel: Bluetooth: BNEP filters: protocol multicast
Jan 05 23:20:40 manjaro-unstable kernel: Bluetooth: BNEP socket layer initialized
Jan 05 23:20:42 manjaro-unstable kernel: Bluetooth: hci0: command 0xfc05 tx timeout
Jan 05 23:20:42 manjaro-unstable kernel: Bluetooth: hci0: Reading Intel version command failed (-110)

After kernel 5.15.15, by only restarting my system:

Jan 20 10:33:46 manjaro-unstable kernel: Bluetooth: Core ver 2.22
Jan 20 10:33:46 manjaro-unstable kernel: NET: Registered PF_BLUETOOTH protocol family

I guess jack2 and jack2-dbus doesn’t like themselves with pipewire now

See FS#73427 - [pipewire-jack] conflicts with jack2 but doesn’t provides?

linux-firmware 20220119.0c6a7b3-2 requires kernel >=5.3 and package splitting

2022-01-21 - Andreas Radke

The linux-firmware package 20220119.0c6a7b3-2 implements kernel firmware compression. Linux kernel from 5.3 on support loading from xz compressed firmware.
CONFIG_FW_LOADER_COMPRESS kernel option must be enabled. All official Arch Linux kernel support this for a long time. [1]

The linux-firmware package has been split into smaller packages to further reduce required disk space. Some big firmware files of rarely used hardware have been split into separate packages.
This affects firmware for Mellanox Spectrum switches, Marvell devices, Qualcomm SoCs, Cavium LiquidIO server adapters, QLogic devices, Broadcom NetXtreme II 10Gb ethernet adapters.
Make sure to install additional firmware packages if needed. [2]

[1] FS#72899
[2] FS#72559 + svn commit

For users with kernels <5.3 installed, they will need to migrate to a 5.x kernel. The 4.x series is now dropped from the repos.

Any difference from linux-firmware-whence provided by Arch Linux?

[freggel.doe]

I’m really liking reduced size of linux-firmware.

@pheiduck

Any difference from linux-firmware-whence provided by Arch Linux?

linux-firmware-whence is provided by Arch. We just created the linux4x- overlays for kernels <5.3.

Permissions for accountservice don’t seem to be correct

warning: directory permissions differ on /var/lib/AccountsService/
filesystem: 755  package: 775

[Yochanan]

Issues with accountsservice

accountsservice has permission conflict it needs to be 775 now: Simple do: sudo chmod 775 /var/lib/AccountsService/

Getting this on Kernel 5.10.95:

You did read this post above, right?

new update on sudo requires merging of new syntax in /etc/sudoers file. i merged using kompare and did the final change (for my user) only in visudo, and there were no complains. hope that is ok

[Yochanan]

NVIDIA 510.47.03 drivers are pushed, kernel updates and extramodules will follow. Use nvidia-dkms for now if you want.

After recent upgrade to manjaro-system (20210612-1 → 20220202-1).
User is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.

Fix: Uncomment these two lines

## Uncomment to allow members of group wheel to execute any command
%wheel ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL

## Uncomment to allow members of group sudo to execute any command
%sudo ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL

[jrichard326]

That is strange that here on Manjaro, sudo just worked without uncommenting those lines. I have

Manjaro:

## User privilege specification
##
root ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL

In Arch (VM), I received that same comment as you, which I fixed by adding myself:
Arch:

## User privilege specification
##
root ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL
jrichard ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL

This should not have happen, it removed the file discussed in link above. [Testing Update] 2022-02-01 - Kernels, Pipewire 0.3.44, Qt5, Mesa 21.3.5, Wine 7.0 - #36 by philm

My solution:
su
then:
groups

Result: exists no group called “sudo”
Therefore (as root):
groupadd sudo
then
usermod -a -G sudo "user"
and reboot. Voila.

[koshikas]

latest sudo (1.9.9-2) has “disable non-interactive auth”.

does that mean keyword “NOPASSWD:” is no more in-affect in sudoers file.
