[SOLVED] ENOENT /usr/share/locale/en_AU.UTF-8/LC_MESSAGES/sudo.mo

When running my ansible-playbooks, ansible is hanging. A strace shows it's trying to locate a "sudo.mo" file but is unsuccessul:
~ $ sudo strace -fp 2111

Did this file go missing in a recent sudo package or something?

I've downgraded ansible to the previous version I had, and no change -- it hangs after the Gathering Facts stage.
Further digging, it appears to be related to one host that is running SSH on a non-standard port. It accidentally ended up in my inventory file multiple times, some with and some without the port specification. Fixing that has resolved the issue -- not sure why strace showed it looping over the sudo file, or why it hasn't been a problem before
Thanks for your input

/usr/share/locale

Having been looking round Disk Usage Analyser on Gnome I have found that /usr/share/locale uses up just shy of 200mb. (I know it's not much in the grand scheme of things but it just bothers me) Since I have set everything up for en_GB is it safe to go ahead and delete all of the other languages? I'm the only one who uses this comp so I know I dont need the rest of them. Reason I ask is that I have got my arch setup just perfect with everything I need and nothing else, it has taken a while to get to this point and dont want eveything to go tits up by deleting these files without asking.
Thanks

Should be fine.
I just deleted everything excpt for the en_* ones in mine and rebooted. So far no issues... Good idea by the way.

FYI: archlinux is widely known for our excellent wiki. Be sure to check there and search the forums before starting new threads. Many problems can be solved with a good search.
As a second FYI, I don't know if the use of the manjaro boards (linked in OP) was just a coincidence of what your previous search gave you or if you are using Manjaro. If it's the latter there are many differences between Manjaro and Archlinux. In this case they are similar enough to share a solution, but in other cases we would be unable to help you here. In short, if you are using Manjaro, be sure to ask on their forums if you have future problems.

[Solved] How to save a file in /usr/bin/local using gedit as an admin?

In my attempt to run these two programs:
https://github.com/kerchen/export_gr2evernote
https://github.com/spiermar/bookmarks2evernote
I noticed they assumed the default python is python 2. I have python 3.3.1 and 2.6.8. I'm following the instructions at: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Py … ld_scripts
Created a file with this:
#!/bin/bash
script=`readlink -f -- "$1"`
case "$script" in
/home/Dropbox/export_gr2evernote-master1/*|/home/Dropbox/bookmarks2evernote2/*)
exec python2 "$@"
esac
exec python3 "$@"
I then, tried to save it as p2 under /usr/local/bin/ where the only thing that's there is meteor, node, and npm, and it throws me an error saying I don't have enough permissions.
How do I save p2 as an admin in /usr/bin/local using gedit?
I've searched on the forums 'create a file in /usr/' and I haven't found anything. Can someone please help me?

I did everything exactly like the wiki said, what seems to be the problem?
OK. Looking at the 2 scripts you quoted, neither one is using a shbang line to set a python version to call. Without that, the python intercept doesn't even come into play. The problem that I see is the way you are starting it:
sudo nano /usr/local/bin/python
Is root really necessary for these if they are in your /home/<user>/Dropbox/ directory. And it appears that you are assuming python3 when you start them that way. If you are going to use that method and they are indeed python2 scripts, then change your command to this:
#python evernote2enex.py -m 10
You might try it as your normal user too in case root isn't really required.
I tested out the first ten with:
#python2 export2enex.py -m 10
it worked!
then proceded with
#python2 export2enex.py GStarred -n exported.enex
The script is fully functional. Thanks man!
Actually, you're not even using the script when starting your python scripts that way. You are explicitly calling either python3 (python) or python2 (python2) to run the indicated python script and not even touching the work around /usr/local/bin/python script. If your python script started with a line like either :
#!/usr/bin/env python
or:
#!/usr/bin/python
And was executable, such that you called it by it's name, i.e. "someprogram.py", then the python script in /usr/local/bin/ would take precedence and effectively intercept the python call and choose the appropriate version of python as long as the path to the directory where "someprogram.py" resides is specified in that /usr/local/bin/python script.

[SOLVED] glibc updates and locale generation - a query

The behaviour of glibc updates in the pacman output seems to have changed in my pacman log.
Previously I had output showing that new locales were being generated such as:
[2013-09-26 08:54] [PACMAN] starting full system upgrade
[2013-09-26 08:54] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] Generating locales...
[2013-09-26 08:54] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] en_GB.UTF-8... done
[2013-09-26 08:54] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] en_US.UTF-8... done
[2013-09-26 08:54] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] Generation complete.
[2013-09-26 08:54] [PACMAN] upgraded glibc (2.18-4 -> 2.18-5)
However in the most recent glibc update there has been no locale scriptlet output. The most recent update in the log is:
[2013-10-25 09:08] [PACMAN] starting full system upgrade
[2013-10-25 09:09] [PACMAN] upgraded glibc (2.18-5 -> 2.18-8)
[2013-10-25 09:09] [PACMAN] upgraded a52dec (0.7.4-7 -> 0.7.4-8)
Can someone confirm that this is expected changed behaviour or is there a problem? Or is it simply that the recent update for pacman 4.1.2-4 gives less output in the log and on the console during updates?
Thanks

Hi,
Try these 3 solutions
1. Did you start vncserver services as:
service vncserver start
2.Check that port 5901 has not been blocked by a firewall:
# nc -vz localhost 5901
You should get a connection and a termination. If you get an error, fix the firewall.
3. service iptables stop
Hope This Helps

[Solved] Automount Generic MP3 Player with UTF-8 encoding

Hello, everybody!
Ubuntu refugee here.
So far I'm going fine with Arch, I just have a couple of problems related to my Generic USB Mp3 player:
1) I want HAL to mount the player with UTF-8 encoding. Right now, it shows Arabic characters as ??????.
2) In Ubuntu, it used to recognize the player as an MP3 player, give it a nice icon, and add it as a music source in Rhythmbox. In Arch, on the other hand, the player is mounted as a generic USB flash drive. How can I make Arch recognize it as an MP3 player?
Thanks in advance.

GOT IT WORKING!! Yay!
I got the solution from here:
http://blog.pcode.nl/2006/08/24/introdu … io-player/
The trick is to make HAL identify your Digital Audio Player (DAP) by adding a rule to /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/10-usb-music-players.fdi -- and since, in my case, Ubuntu already had a 10-usb-music-players.fdi file that recognized my player, all I had to do was boot up from an Ubuntu live cd and copy Ubuntu's 10-usb-music-players.fdi over Arch's.
Now my issues with Arch are down to only one: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=360647
Thanks everybody.

Ignoring /usr/share/applications

Hey all
I'm looking for a way to ignore the .desktop files in /usr/share/applications
I've created my own .desktop files and stored them in /usr/local/share/applications. The inconsistencies and sheer amount of .desktop files that applications bring with them by default were cluttering my menus. However, it's strating to become a pain to keep /usr/share/applications empty, since everytime a package gets a small update it puts its .desktop files back there.
Is there a way to ignore the .desktop files in /usr/share/applications? Perhaps through some sort of environment variable? Thanks

robrene wrote:
It's not just the menus that I want this for, the .desktop files also reflect what applications can open certain mimetypes and they determine what appears in "Open with..." dialogs for example.
Perhaps making sure all .desktop files have an entry that reads "Hidden=true" would indeed be a good solution to my problem though, since pacman will still be able to track the files and I could have a script that asserts this everytime I run it. However my scripting skills for these kind of text manipulation tasks are subpar... Could someone please help me write a script that:
For each *.desktop file in /usr/share/applications:
Searches for the "Hidden" key
If found, makes sure it's set to "true"
If not, append the Hidden=true entry
I'd really appreciate the help
Only lightly tested, seems to work.
#!/bin/bash
shopt -s nullglob
for f in /usr/share/applications/*.desktop; do
awk 'BEGIN {hidden=1} /^Hidden=/ {print "Hidden=true"; hidden=0; next} {print} END {if(hidden) print "Hidden=true"}' "$f" > "/tmp/${f##*/}.new"
mv "/tmp/${f##*/}.new" "$f"
done

Since both of the problems seem to me to be confined to archlinux (neither of the problems occur in a gentoo installation,) I would think that the bug should be reported to archlinux and not upstream.

Many thanks!

I post this just in case someone has the same problem. Finally I was digging into /usr/sare/man and I found that apple just includes translations in man for English, French, Italian, Russian and Polish as you can see in the following listing of files:

it man3 man8 pl.UTF-8
it.ISO8859-1 man4 man9 ru.KOI8-R
I don't know if it is possible to download the spanish translation from somewhere. If someone knows please let me know.
Hope this helps to someone in the future.

Glibc - /usr/share/info/dir is already in the filesystem

Hello,
I just build glibc from abs with debugging support and when trying to install it via pacman I get conflicting files error: "/usr/share/info/dir is already in the filesystem". Any ideas?

/usr/share/info/dir makes part of the info documentation system. Packages must add entries to this file and not overwrite it, so your package need to be fixed. You can delete the dir file from the package (do not overwrite the system file or you will destroy the info system); you just won't have a title entry in the info page (the menu displayed when you type info will not have the entry corresponding to your package). You can also fix it properly with the install-info command (but I do not know this package, so I do not know exactly what you have to install).
I suggest you to report the problem it in a comment in the AUR.

Acroread 9.1.0 reads the full directory tree /usr/share/fonts

Hi,
I was wondering why the startup time of acroread is that high on my system (Debian 5.0). I have found out using strace that acroread reads the full content of the /usr/share/fonts/ directory tree (more than 4000 files) during startup in a quite inefficient way.
First question: why does it read /usr/share/fonts during startup at all and is there a way to disable that behaviour?
Second question follows: the ext3 requires that an application reading the full content of a directory should sort the file list numerically by inode number before opening the files. It is explained in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=417 why the application should be fixed and not the kernel. Can acroread be changed to qsort() the file list between the calls of readdir() and open()?
Cheers,
Torsten

Hello Torsten,
Thanks for reporting the issue. Could you please let us know if you are opening acroread with a file(either by double clicking on it or giving it as a parameter to acroread). If yes, could you please see if launch time is still high when you do not open a file(launch acroread by clicking on the Desktop icon or launch it from console). Also, it would be helpful if you can mail the strace output to sanika at adobe dot com.
As for reading the location, it is one of the standard font locations mentioned in /etc/fonts/fonts.conf. If you do not want acroread to use these fonts, you can set ACRO_DISABLE_FONT_CONFIG to 1 on console.
If you do not want to set this variable every time you launch reader, you can search for "ACRO_DISABLE_FONT_CONFIG" in the launch script, uncomment the relevant section and save the script.
However, I should warn you that Reader would not be able to use these fonts to display PDFs(substitute fonts would be used instead).
Sincerely,
Sanika

With both en_GB and nb_NO uncommented, and /etc/locale.conf set as in the first post, locale -a says

localectl says
System Locale: LANG=nb_NO.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES=en_GB.UTF-8
VC Keymap: n/a
X11 Layout: n/a
though. That looks fine, but the messages still are in norwegian :s
Edit: For example, when trying to run ncmpcpp without mpd running, it says "Couldn't connect to MPD (host = localhost, port = 6600): Oppkobling nektes" Whereas the two last words are norwegian and mean "Connection refused". I guess this goes under LC_MESSAGES.

"Permissions differ on usr/share/derby"

Hi,
After some strange behavior on my MacPro I verified disk permissions and got:
Permissions differ on "usr/share/derby" should be drwxr-xr-x, they are lrwxr-xr-x
and
Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.
Repair disk permissions does not fix the problem.
Any advice aside from reinstalling Snow Leopard?
Thank you.

The “l” in lrwxr-xr-x stands for “link” and just means that the corresponding file is an alias file, whereas “d” in drwxr-xr-x stands for “directory” and means it's a folder. In Mac OS X 10.6.3, the /usr/share/derby file is an alias to the /usr/share/java/derby-10.5.1.1 folder, however both actually have the same read/write permissions (rwxr-xr-x).

Corrupted library points to /usr/share/emacs/...

Advice on fixing a corrupted iTunes Library would be appreciated. The symptoms are invalid links to certain files, such as:
file: "TED Sirena Huang"
link: iBook/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/net/webjump.el
file: AC: Ray Kurzweil
link: iBook/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/obsolete/auto-show.el
BTW, the URL of an Applescript that will find [or make a playlist of] all missing or invalid files would be appreciated. It is surely on dougscripts.com but I've not yet devisted the proper query.

Has anyone seen this type of library corruption before? It is a bit scary to have iTunes linking into System files - where only permissions prevents a user from accidental deletions.
