Re: OpenRC & eudev on Arch

So anyone has a good reason to do not restore the old wiki page?

They are 2 completely different implementations:
the apg one is the most "clean" one, but it's also the most "complicate" one for a "normal" user.
the artoo one it's not so "clean" (it doesn't work with initscript-forks) and the init.d files are divided in many packages, but it mainly works for a "normal" user without the needs to tweak some major scripts (like the sshd one)

Re: OpenRC & eudev on Arch

I've been keeping an eye on the recent developments in this thread - and I must admit I don't seem to have the relevant background to assess exactly what is going on - but it looks like the discussion is headed in a non-productive direction.  Especially when cliches like this come out:

False.

If there is yet debate to be had on what should be included in the wiki page, that may be best kept to the discussion tab of that wiki page while this thread keeps it's focus on the tools of the topic.

I just wanted to thank all the folks making openrc easily available on arch.

Re: OpenRC & eudev on Arch

I have an artoo installation in my system. Recently I see that wiki users cleaned up this method in the Wiki. Is there any reason to migrate to agp way? I use eudev (I removed completely systemd), but in the wiki there is no mention how to use agp method and eudev. On the other hand, is there guide to such migrate?

Thanks,

Re: OpenRC & eudev on Arch

Xanb, i doubt there are openrc agp users that have tried eudev with openrc.

Personally, i have thought about it a few times, but every time i checked eudev maturity , it was not mature enough,
I decided to stick to udev (from systemd) until the time i would have no other choice but to switch.
This point may arrive when KDBUS is the only way to use udev, but sofar KDBUS hasn't made it into the kernel.

As for migrating from artoo to apg way : if you're happy with artoo way, that's not needed.
As long as artoo way unofficial repo / AUR packages are maintained/updated and the artoo way focus on manjaro doesn't hinder functionality on archlinux, the removal of it from the wiki should have little impact.

@ Glats, I had written a post a few years back, it might be seriously outdated, but you can still take a look.

Re: OpenRC & eudev on Arch

Thanks, Lone_Wolf, for the sketch of the situation. Perhaps in eudev page in the wiki could be placed some comment on that.

Re: OpenRC & eudev on Arch

Hi Glats,
Where did you get polkit-consolekit and consolekit from?  The versions in the AUR are 0.113-2 and 0.9.4-1 respectively.  I'm guessing that you're using the artoo repository for them and that whole method was deprecated a month or so back.  I didn't fully understand the reasoning behind it, but I swapped over to the apg method anyway and things are currently running just fine here.

Re: OpenRC & eudev on Arch

Hi Glats (and others who may want to keep following artoo way),

You could install the cgmanager-openrc package which became an optional dependency of consolekit-openrc and see if the error gets solved.

@Glats, you may also need to rebuild xfce-polkit-git against new polkit.

@aaditya

I did try but it didn't work
I installed cgmanager-openrc, I did yaourt -Rdd xfce-polkit-git and yaourt xfce-polkit-git and gave me the same error

Do I have to edit the PKGBUILD?

Could you post the output of following commands:

service consolekit status
ck-list-sessions
pgrep -l console
pgrep -p polkit
pacman -Qs consolekit
pacman -Qs cgmanager

Also you could try switching from xfce-polkit-git to polkit-gnome or lxpolkit.

Re: OpenRC & eudev on Arch

aOops, i meant

pgrep -l polkit

From the output posted looks like consolekit is working, so the error is probably with polkit, dbus, or some related component ..

Hi Glats,

I got a report about polkit-consolekit being built against incorrect version of js library, I have updated the repo, could you update it on your end and fetch and install the updated polkit-consolekit package and report if it works?

Re: OpenRC & eudev on Arch

@Aaditya, can you update OpenRC (artoo way) and eudev. It seems that it depends on ncurses < 6.0. So when I update ncurses, it brokes my system.
thanks.

Does it mean that it is compiled against ncurses 6.0?
