well can any developers explain why not the upgrade?...this was only a little help..i hope..

JGC · 2007-04-25 22:53:01

I don't maintain unstable packages, and neither do I support gnome-system-tools. If everything calms down on the packagers side, I could take a shot at upgrading these things, but until then, I don't expect anything to change with gnome-system-tools.

aRcHaTe · 2007-04-26 03:46:17

why not that these one? it seems work fine for me...now that gnome is on usr its simple to compile these ones...

It is not Unstable anymore, system-tools-backends 2.2.x is the stable branch. http://system-tools-backends.freedeskto … nload.html

sickhate's PKGBUILD for System-tools-backends builds and installs, but it doesn't work; I keep getting an error message when I run any gnome-system-tool.

The configuration could not be loaded
You are not allowed to access the system configuration.

It needs to be patched for Arch Linux support. until then, none of gnome-system-tools will work.

An update will indeed be much appreciated.

Thanks

hmm .. do u have "admin" group? I have "adm", the Arch Linux default. This is the output of my groups command

> groups

adm wheel log network video audio optical floppy storage scanner camera users

Is yours different?

thanks for the reply btw.

Edit:
here is an example error output if running gnome-system-tools from command prompt.

> sudo services-admin

(services-admin:7218): Liboobs-WARNING **: There was an unknown error communicating with the backends: Process /usr/bin/system-tools-backends exited with status 0

It seems that liboobs is the problem?

Same problem here. I built the packages today - all went fine. But when I try to run some application from the gst it says :

You are not allowed to access the system configuration.

I'll investigate the issue further as soon as I have time, but if anyone has idea what is wrong I'll be thankful to hear it.

This error message seems pretty common, even amongst users of other distros http://www.google.com/search?q=You+are+ … =firefox-a

There solution they have is irrelevant to Arch Linux. I believe "system-tools-backends" package needs to be patched in order to work with Arch Linux. Take a look at the patch gst-arch.patch, you'll find it in the older version in the abs tree. (/var/abs/unstable/gnome/system-tools-backends/gst-arch.patch) I fiddled with it a little, but still no go.

Arch Linux
