[pacman] Provides and dependency tracking.

If I have a repo with package foo-git that provides foo, have package bar depends on foo, and no package foo, what will pacman do when trying to install bar? I have 3 variants:
1. Pacman will fail with cannot resolve dependences.
2. Pacman will install foo-git and bar.
What variant now, and what preferred?

Pacman will only do what runical describes if those alternatives are present in the SAME repo .
Basically when pacman checks for dependencies, it goes through every repo listed in pacman.conf but stops once it has found that dependency.
say foo is present in [extra] and foo-git in [rilian-la-te-repo] .
If [extra] is above [rilian-la-te-repo] , pacman will always find foo in [extra] and install that version.
If you prefer pacman to use your version, you will have to list [rilian-la-te-repo] ABOVE [extra] .

  • I cannot receive email properly now. When I open mail, it says that is downloading about 1,700 emails. At the very end, it gives me my newest ones. But this takes a long time. I've contacted the Internet service provider and verified all the right setting

    I cannot receive email properly on either my IPad or my IPhone. I have had them for over a year and they have always worked fine. Until three days ago, when they both started acting up. On the IPad, when I open mail, it says it is downloading about 1,700 emails. At the very end, which takes quite a while to get to, I finally get the most recent ones. The IPad is sending emails just fine.
    On my IPhone, when I open mail, it says it is downloading 100 emails, but it doesn't do that. And it gives me no new emails at all. The IPhone is sending email just fine.
    I have already deleted the email accounts on both devices and reinstalled them. I've contacted the Internet service provider and verified all the right settings. The Outlook email on my desktop is working perfectly.

    WMV is a heavily-compressed format/CODEC, and the processing time will depend on several factors:
    Your CPU, which is not that powerful in your case
    Your I/O sub-system, which is likely a single HDD on your laptop
    The source footage. What is your source footage?
    Any Effects added to that footage. Do you have any Effects?
    Each of those will have an impact on the time required.
    The trial has only one main limitation - the watermark. Now, there are some components, that have to be activated, but are not with the trial, but they would be evident with Import of your source footage, if it's an issue.

  • I have just installed iTunes on my laptop and merged tracks under various artists to form one album but when I sync iTunes to my new ipod the tracks on some of the albums are appearing as single artists..... WHY????  I

    I Have just spent the best part of a week installing iTunes on my laptop, transferring over all my music and merging tracks by different artists on one album so that they all show as one album.   I have just plugged in my new ipod classic to sync all my music but the music has gone across in random tracks and split albums.... I really am losing the will to live and am about to throw both iPod and laptop out the window.... So SOMEBODY.... Please HELP.

    'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • Today my phone was stolen, so i called my service provider and had my account suspended. then i found it at a pawn shop, so i reactivated it. however, my phone says that it has no SIM and I am unable to send/recieve any messages. how can i fix it?

    Today while I was at work my phone was stolen. After unsuccessfully trying to track down the kids who had it, I called my service provider and asked them to suspend my account. A short time later, I found my phone at a local pawn shop and called to reactivate my phone's service. The woman on the phone said that it should only take a few minutes to reactivate. However, a coworker also told me that whenever a theft gets reported to the service provider, apple puts your phone's serial number on a list that disables yours phone's re-enactment until the service provider confirms that the phone has been found. I'm not sure if this is true, but my phone should have been working a few hours ago, and it still says that there is no SIM everytime I try to send a message. Should I just wait it out or is it more likely to be at the fault of my service provider?
    Thanks!

    The SIM question/issue is separate from all of the others.  Your iPhone will not access the cellular newtwork until you install a new SIM.  The current SIM has been deactivated and is now useless.  Get a new SIM, install it (or have it installed), then have your carrier grant the iPhone access to the cellualr network.

  • Face and Eye Tracking with LabView and Vision

    Hey all,
    For my senior project I am trying to perform face tracking and eye tracking by using LabView and the Vision Development Module. Unfortunately I am new to LV and I'm drowning in a sea of links and tutorials so I was wondering if anyone here that has had experience performing similar tasks would be willing to help and point me in the right direction or provide examples. I bought two Logitech c525 webcams and hooked them up to my pc running LabView and Vision 2011. I was able to see images captured but that's as far as I've gotten with the tools. Any tips?
    Thanks,
    Alex.

    have a look at http://sine.ni.com/cs/app/doc/p/id/cs-14116 and http://forums.ni.com/t5/Machine-Vision/how-to-trac​k-face-and-allocate-lips-in-face-using-labview/td-​...
    This thread would also be more suited to the Machine Vision section.

  • Vertical tables and date tracked fields

    We are in process of remodeling our database. We will have true 3rd normal form tables with vertical structure and date tracked fields among many other changes. I'm interested in Toplink's support capability.
    We are evaluating using stored procedures to do CRUD operations and use toplink to do only reads. Has anyone used toplink in this type of database model and how is it implemented?
    Thanks

    Sure. Having your database in 3rd normal form will only make your object model more consistent and more efficient to modify.
    TopLink has great stored procedure support and also performs very favourably on reads, so it serves this kind of model quite well. The caveat is that TopLink tends to cache fairly agressively be default. If you are doing writes outside of TopLink then you will need to determine a strategy for refreshing cached objects that may have changed in the db. TopLink does provide a number of ways that you can use to do that, including cache eviction policies, implicit and explicit refreshing, and cache hit disabling when necessary.

  • DBA_DEPENDENCIES: 11gR2 fine-grained dependency tracking -- which columns??

    DBA_DEPENDENCIES is great, but I need to know the dependent columns. Given that 11g supports fine-grained dependency tracking... for example:
    create view emp_view as
    select emp_no, emp_name
    from employees
    where emp_no in (select emp_no from employees where hire_date > sysdate-2000)
    EMP_VIEW only exposes EMP_NO and EMP_NAME.
    If I drop the column EMPLOYEES.HIRE_DATE, Oracle will not invalidate objects that reference just EMP_NO and EMP_NAME, but in this case Oracle immediately invalidates EMP_VIEW because the view definition contains HIRE_DATE.
    Where does Oracle store this column dependency? Only at the table/view/function level in DBA_DEPENDENCIES. Maybe in an X$ table somewhere?
    Or does Oracle do an "on the fly" check for the dropped column in all dependent objects (seems messy).
    Before I change any table or view, I want to know what else I may have to change without finding out the hard way. I can easily look at the view's column list, but if I have to go into the view text, or the function text... messy! Must be a better way.
    Thanks.

    Exactly what I needed. Not sure why I didn't find this with the ten different Google searches I did...

  • [SOLVED] Dependency tracking

    Hello,
    I had some updates available yesterdays, among others:
    - libgadu,
    - mplayer,
    - gnutls.
    I didn't want to restart machine right away, so I upgraded only libgadu and mplayer. Then, when trying to start mplayer or kadu (which uses libgadu) a got an error about missing libgnutls.so.30. After full system update everything works fine, but I wonder why did dependency tracker allow such upgrade? Shouldn't gnutls be forced to upgrade along with libgadu and mplayer?
    cheers,

  • Video with stereo track and click track for live performance

    Hello,
    I have a video that was created in FCP sync'd with a stereo sound track and a click track. I need to play this video live (using projection) with the stereo track routed to the main outs and the click routed to the in-ear monitors for a performer to sync with. I have not done this before and am trying to wrap my brain around it. I'm also hoping to come up with the easiest and most reliable solution. As I understand it, this video will not be able to play back from a burned DVD, but rather will need to play back in Logic with 2 audio tracks (L/R) for the sound track and then 1 track for the click. These 3 tracks can then be routed to their required destinations from a soundcard or mixer.
    Does this seem to be the best and most reliable method? I've only burned audio to video (never using a click) in FCP before and have always played back from a DVD. Now I have this live player/syncing component and am not sure of the best way to do it. I have some experience with Logic, but limited.
    I really appreciate any suggestions/tips any one might have.
    Thanks.

    I've opened the movie (with stereo track) in QT Pro and then added the click - and now the 2 audio files are there, sync'd up.
    When you say you opened the movie in QT Pro, I assume you mean the QT Pro version of Quicktime Player 7. So let's say you have the movie open in Quicktime Player 7, and you press ⌘J (Window > Show Movie Properties). And in the window that appears, hopefully you see several items listed, including Sound Track 1 and Sound Track 2. These are your two audio files, that are now part of the movie file. One of those files is your stereo soundtrack, and the other is your click. So let's assume that this is a total of 3 channels of sound (because I understand your click is mono).
    Select Sound Track 1, and select the tab Audio Settings. Let's assume this is the stereo soundtrack. In the scrolling area at the bottom right of the window, under the heading Assignment, you should see Left and Right. Let's leave it that way.
    Now select Sound Track 2. Under Assignment, there should be just one item listed (that is, there is only one channel in this Sound Track, if the click is mono). Under Assignment, it probably says Mono. Change that to Center.
    Save the movie. We're done with Quicktime Player for now. Launch Audio MIDI Setup. It's here:
    Macintosh HD/Applications/Utilities/Audio MIDI Setup
    I assume you have an audio interface connected that supports at least 3 channels. In AMS, find the window (or tab, depending on your OS version) for Audio Devices. Select your audio interface. Select the Output tab, and press the button Configure Speakers. In the window that appears, select Multichannel, and change the menu selection from Stereo to 5.1 Surround.
    You will probably see that "left front," "right front," and "center" are assigned to outputs 1, 2 and 3, respectively, of your audio interface. If not, make it so, and press the button Apply.
    Now when you play your movie, the stereo soundtrack will appear at outputs 1 and 2 of your audio interface, and the click will appear at output 3. Now you can cable your stereo mains to 1/2 and your in-ear monitors to 3.

  • Midi and Audio tracks simultaneously armed for recording

    All, whilst engaged in laying down the bass track for the guitar solo section of my latest monster his, I encountered one of those sorts of frustrations that makes one long for some means of swift egress from this mortal coil, this vale of tears: that is, while laying down my totally awesome bass track that when they hear it will send JP Jones and Boosty Collins to employee as actuaries, I kept getting the hateful "unable to synchronize the audio and midi error." I'll spare you the catalog of the various lame attempts I understood to remedy this problem, as well as the curses directed toward my fate, and Daw ineptitude in general. Then I nnoticed that both the software instrument tracks (Addictive drums) and the audio track (aforementioned bass) were both armed for recording, signified by the red R in the track header! Well, upon de-arming the software instrument track I was able to record by bass line in a mimimum of takes, and as visions of illegal intozicants and comen of questionable morals dance through my noggin as recompsense for my trouble, with to make the point to all relative newbies such as myself that the answer to problems that seem on surface intractable as usually staring you right in the glazed eyeball.

    What?...
    I'm sorry maybe I don't understand everything you are sayng... but I can replay to the titles of the Topic!
    Actually recording a MIDI instrument and an Audio Track symultaneously comes with serious bug!!!
    you cannot use Punch-in on Fly when an Audio and instrument track is armed at the same time...
    or better you can but the MIDI and audio output will be dropped for a moment
    Provide a Logic feedback

    THIS IS A LOGIC 8 BUG!!! BIGGEST SERIOUS BUG!
    I suggest you to use Logic 7 when you need that!
    Thank you so much for remember me this..
    I'm sorry no alternative solution... or.. if you have 2 Macs you can use one for Logic MIDI and another one for Logic Audio!

  • Provides() and conflicts(), a practical problem

    Hello everybody,
    I have some questions about the provides() and conflicts() fields of some packages.
    Here are 2 packages I put on AUR recently: eo-snapshot, eo-cvs
    I am thinking of removing eo-snapshot but it can be good to keep it for people who don't have access to CVS.
    In this case eo-snapshot and eo-cvs will conflict. Once a new, working, stable version of eo will be out, I (or anybody) will probably make a package (called eo).
    So I am thinking of using the fields provides=('eo') for both packages, and conflicts=('eo-snapshot') or ('eo-cvs')
    Is it the right thing to do ?
    An other question about other packages: galib, libge.
    libge can use galib if it is compiled with galib support, so should I make a libge-galib version (with galib in makedepends) or put a comment somewhere (where) that asks the user to install galib before building libge to enable the galib support ?
    An other one:
    eo-cvs(or eo-snapshot) and galib both provide a /usr/lib/libga.a file, so they conflict with one another. Is there any workaround to install both?

    I've been meaning to get back to you on this since our other thread - sorry for the delay.
    marmotte wrote:So I am thinking of using the fields provides=('eo') for both packages, and conflicts=('eo-snapshot') or ('eo-cvs')

    Yeah, that sounds good.

    Don't make two packages - that's messy. Put the details above in an AUR comment when you submit the PKGBUILD.

    I don't know anything about these packages, so the following advice is basic file conflict stuff, but libga.a looks like it belongs in galib, not eo. Could you delete it from eo, and make eo depend on galib?

  • [SOLVED]Can pacman provide some sound after finishing installing

    I usually let pacman download and install something in a screen and working on another screens. But I can't know immediately when the instalI finished if I don't return to the screen where pacman is installing something.
    Can pacman provide some sound after finishing installing? Or are there any other methods are suitable for this? And I guess tools like wget or axel may need this.

    You probably can make a script that wraps pacman, and plays a sound (ffplay, ffmpeg, mplayer, aplay, whatever) and plays a sound when pacman returns. Better than nothing I guess.
    Something like this:
    pacmansound
    #!/bin/bash
    pacman $@
    ffplay ~/Music/pacman_done.ogg
    I'm not sure if this works, but you get the idea.

    Back after a brief absence, things look a little bit different.
    I'm trying to take a 16 minute mini dv video and compress it for use on the web. I'm interested in any suggestions you may have on settings for the video and audio tracks. I've tried using Sorenson 3 (15 frames, key frames set to automatic, 320 x 240) for video and IMA 4:1 (mono) for audio. The resulting video looked great but the file size came in at about 255 Mb.

    Thank you for the replies.  Everyone was correct about the jack, interface, and phasing problems.  I have been unplugging my motu audio interface and then using headphones at work.  I have not changed any detailed audio output settings in logic.  When I read that the jack might be a problem I tried switching headphones.  This actually helped.  I am using dre-beats headphones and they seem to be having issues with the mac/jack-(the phasing/panning problems.  I can use these headphones with other devices but not the mac.  I have to use ipod ear buds and the phasing seems fixed.  Hopefully this information is helpful to someone else. 
    If anyone knows how to correct this issue please let me know its difficult to know what my final mixes are going to sound like and I have had to keep bouncing everything into i-tunes- sync to ipod and then listen in my car radio.
