wxWidgets 3.2 provides a Qt frontend in addition to the GTK3 one, so packages have been renamed from wxgtk- to wxwidgets-.
The GTK2 frontend is no longer provided. If you have wxgtk2 installed, the upgrade will fail with
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: removing wxgtk-common breaks dependency 'wxgtk-common' required by wxgtk2
In such case, uninstall wxgtk2 first and then proceed with the upgrade.
Two days ago the wireplumber
package was made to replace pipewire-media-session
as the latter session manager for PipeWire is considered dead upstream and will see no more releases. Unfortunately, this step was premature.
Our pipewire audio packages (pipewire-alsa
, pipewire-jack
and pipewire-pulse
) ship configuration that prompt media-session to activate PipeWire's audio features. When these packages are not installed and the configuration is missing, PipeWire can be used for screen recording without interfering with ALSA or PulseAudio.
WirePlumber disregards this mechanism and always configures PipeWire to grab audio devices, meaning users of PulseAudio or bare ALSA experience broken audio. …
With the update to qemu 7.0.0 the package has been turned into a more
fine grained split package utilizing meta packages.
- The
qemu
package is now virtually provided by the meta packages
qemu-base
, qemu-desktop
and qemu-full
.
- The functionality of
qemu
prior to 7.0.0 is replaced by
qemu-desktop
- The functionality of
qemu-headless
is replaced by
qemu-base
- The functionality of
qemu-arch-extra
and qemu-headless-arch-extra
is replaced by qemu-emulators-full
- The meta package
qemu-full
provides all QEMU related
packages (excluding qemu-guest-agent
)
The keycloak
package prior to version 17.0.1-2 was running with WildFly server. Since upstream officially moved to Quarkus distribution, Arch Linux follows this approach. This means some manual intervention is required for the upgrade.
The configuration needs to be adjusted from the old .xml
format to the new /etc/keycloak/keycloak.conf
.
Prior to the upgrade, stop the keycloak service, upgrade the package and migrate the configuration before starting:
systemctl stop keycloak.service
pacman -Syu keycloak
# migrate configuration /etc/keycloak/keycloak.conf
systemctl start keycloak.service
See Keycloak migration docs and Keycloak Quarkus server docs
