gnome 3.4beta2 in gnome-unstable

wonder · 2012-03-11 17:16:43

Here is a gift from me and heftig for our 10th anniversary.

GNOME 3.4beta2 is available in [gnome-unstable] repository. To use this version you need to enable [gnome-unstable] repository, as top repository to pacman.conf, along with [testing] repository.

[gnome-unstable]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[testing]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[core]
...

Like always packaging bugs should be reported on our bugtracker, anything else considered bugs should be reported to GNOME bugzilla. Before reporting an upstream bug, be sure you search first on bugzilla in the appropriate project. I keep track on bugs discovered by our community on this todo list.

If you report a bug, please let me know about it so I can add it on my todo list.

I'm wondering if you will also add gnome-boxes. That's the main feature/new application I am waiting for

that won't come unless somebody wants to maintain it in community. I do not want to maintain libvirt, is a pain in the ass.

It's a clear answer. I will test it for a few in a virtualbox virtual machine until putting it on my laptop and then on my desktop computer

Thanks wonder for it !

Well, libvirt 0.9 is in community, as far as I see. So, can't you ask for help here ? Just guessing of course

Wonder, one simple question : why libsystemd is installed ?

Thanks for your kind answer.

Surely because the libraries provided by systemd are now a dependency of gnome.

because gnome depends on it but for now we can still use consolekit. the involved components have runtime verification and they fallback to consolekit if systemd doesn't run.

Hmm. As far as I know gnome-boxes is (will be) part of the core applications, as gnome-documents & contacs are ...
thanks anyway for the new packages.

Good!
I switched to KDE before Gnome 3 was out. Then I gave it a try as soon as it was released as stable but versione 3.0 was too heavy for my oldish PC. Version 3.2 used to run much better but still not enough, due to my "vintage" hardware.
Now I just brought a netbook (actually my brother did as my birthday present) and should be on the way home (bougth on-line). It will certainly host Gnome 3, I hope directly from version 3.4!!

Thanks a lot. I just hope when systemd will be mandatory that shutdown time problem will be fixed.

Systemd is very very very slow on shutdown

Please direct systemd issues to the bug tracker (slow shutdown is not expected), as this thread is about gnome :-)

Known issue as far as I remember. Related to gdm and systemd.

Hi! I would like to test this beta, but I don't feel comfortable enough to do a -Syu with the [testing] repo. Which packages from [testing] are required in order to run the ones in [gnome-unstable]?

I installed the xorg- lot and renamed the ~/.local/blabla/extensions folder to disable them all completely at once and it now runs. Thank you, wonder, for your hard work! Let's see what this gnome 3.4beta2 has to offer.

all

olorian · 2012-03-12 13:26:18

No no XD Luckily not all of them. I almost never do a -Syu, not even with the "stable" repos, so I wished I could avoid it now, and in fact I could.

I am using [testing] for half of year now and if you follow arch-devel-public you schould not have many problems. It is as stable as the core repo for me.

Gnome 3.3.90 works fine for me, only some extensions don't work like user-theme, but I can live without them.

EDIT: mediaplayer extension works now

pretty sure you did pacman -Syuf which is wrong. reinstall gcr package and i suggest to run pacman -Qk and reinstall all packages that have missing files.

as for blue screen, is a bug in gsettings-desktop-schemas that points to a missing wallpaper.

thanos · 2012-03-12 19:25:29

Thanks wonder.

Basically i downgraded and due to conflicts i removed some files manually.

pacman -Qk did the job and i reinstalled the packages.

jaclar · 2012-03-13 17:31:10

I experienced frequent crashes of gnome-shell. I was playing around with bluetooth and some system settings while suddenly the title bar of the windows disappeared. This mostly happened upon opening new windows. Might be also that the gnome-session crashed... because during one crash I had a terminal and focus an upon typing

# gnome-shell --replace

I got a message that it couldn't connect to the session bus.

Anybody with similar experiences?

wonder · 2012-03-13 17:34:14

yeah, don't do gnome-shell --replace as ROOT. do it as your current user.

do you use nvidia?

jaclar · 2012-03-13 18:21:06

sorry my fault. I did it as my current user.

no and i'm not using nvidia. Its an integrated Intel HD Graphics.

At which logs should I have a look to figure out what went wrong?

rAX · 2012-03-13 18:46:36

Hi,

Thanks for your efforts.

Is there any chance you could update gnome-tweak-tool too. It crashes with the user-theme extension installed and complains about missing schemas too. All these issues seem to be already fixed in 3.3.4.

Thank you.

wonder · 2012-03-13 19:03:35

@rAX you should be punished hard, very hard for installing files out of package manager. As for missing schema, be sure you remove the gnome-shell-extension-user-theme and install user-theme from http://extensions.gnome.org.

P.S package updated.

rAX · 2012-03-13 19:14:46

Oh, no! I modified a PKGBUILD at first. That was a test, I don't do that(anymore) .

I removed gnome-shell-extension-user-theme and installed from the website. And it was giving me the same error.

Updating, thanks.
