Update requests for packages built by Manjaro developers

[pheiduck]

Yes, this is what I mean. But thanks for clarification @moson and @Strit

Have modified the package linux-latest on my test VM (KDE-Development Edition)
Dropped linux57 and linux58
Install the linux59
Can’t test Nvidia drivers but I have read the driver works now on Linux Kernel 5.9.x

… but not supported:

Thorsten 'the Linux kernel logger' Leemhuis(6/6) (kernellogger)

[electron]

add: linux59-nvidia-390xx

with nvidia GPU(390xx branch) and kernel59 i get a black screen, (tty works fine). I can confirm its due to lack of linux59-nvidia-390xx for linux59

Unfortunately, it looks like supporting legacy drivers on Linux 5.9 is not as easy as it sounds.

Dropping all legacy and older Nvidia drivers ?!?

[image] It becomes harder and harder to support the older and legacy Nvidia drivers for upcoming kernel series. Starting with 5.9 kernel series, only 450 and 455 are supported by this kernel. Older drivers simply don’t compile anymore. Out of the two, only 455 supports CUDA. If we look at Arch, they already dropped the legacy drivers completely. We would go back to a rolling driver update, and only offer the latest Nvidia driver. This might bring back the known issues, that some graphic cards …

Dropping all legacy and older Nvidia drivers ?!?

For 390 we found a way to make it work, however, it will be harder with each new kernel series …

It is already in testing and unstable braches. Will make it to stable soon.

Thunderbird released 78.5 to fix security vulnerabilties. (78 branch is available in unstable and testing and was built by @nightmare-2021 )

[DAC324]

Thanks a lot for the hard work. I can confirm that Nvidia driver 390 works here in Manjaro testing on a 5.9 kernel:

System:    Kernel: 5.9.10-1-MANJARO x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 10.2.0 
Graphics:  Device-1: NVIDIA GF116 [GeForce GTX 550 Ti] vendor: Gigabyte driver: nvidia v: 390.132

pulseaudio-modules-bt needs to be rebuild against new pulseaudio version 14.
Already updated in arch: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/pulseaudio-modules-bt/
Last packager is : @philm

PKGBUILD has been updated!PKGBUILD 1.4-4 and later will automatically get the PulseAudio version.

Thunderbird released 78.5.1 to fix security vulnerabilities. Last packager was @nightmare-2021.

Thunderbird

Looks like this is now in all branches, thanks to the patch from the Arch bug tracker:

https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/68825

(upstream patch does not apply, it required backporting)

[philm]

Actually the patch is from Gentoo. You can review it from Thomas Deutschmann’s patchset. It is file 38.

[jonathon]

Weird. I don’t remember seeing the Gentoo email address when I looked at it, so unless a new commit history was force-pushed I must have been mistaken.

Still - it’s a bit strange that a patch pushed last week (when 83 was released):

has been replaced by one pushed yesterday (at the same time as the patch log for TB 78.5.1):

But, who knows. After all, what would be the point of trying to re-write a git history to hide the use of a certain source for a patch?

Hello @Ste74 - I’ve updated mutter-x11-scaling to 3.38.2. But i had to fix the latest upstream patch to compile with 3.38.2 - the Ubuntu developer is informed and it will be hopefully fixed upstream soon. There is also thanks to feedback from Ubuntu now a patched gnome-control-center-x11-scaling build with fixes for multi-monitor management and the toggle option from Ubuntu in case you are interested.

Cheers

[Ste74]

Thank you, i look into it…

Edit: added both on our repo

I think that Shotcut needs to be updated from 20.11.14 to 20.11.28:

Problem after [Stable Update] 2020-12-03: Shotcut: failed to dlopen /usr/lib/mlt/libmltrtaudio.so - maybe rubberband related

I noticed only today, while going to exporting a video on Shotcut video editor: The exporting failed with the following message: mlt_repository_init: failed to dlopen /usr/lib/mlt/libmltrtaudio.so /usr/lib/mlt/libmltrtaudio.so is owned by MLT (6.22.1-4) which coming from Official Repository; maybe MLT need to be rebuilted? The previous version of MLT (6.22.1-3) didn’t gave this error. EDIT: As I installed rtaudio (which provides librtaudio.so.6) the mentioned error went away, but now there …

I quote myself from such discussion:

While I was searching for a solution, firtsly I tried to replace mlt from community repo to AUR, but the problem was still there; then I downloaded a new release of Shotcut from the official repo: v20.11.28 Releases · mltframework/shotcut · GitHub
And all errors went away.

Furthermore, seems that Shotcut, now also needs rtaudio package.

I see that the last packager was Filipe Laíns.

EDIT

I see that Shotcut 20.11.28 has hit the unstable and testing repo this morning; such quick action

Can be also pushed to Stable branch?
For now I manually updated it from testing repo, don’t worry
