[SOLVED] 'Sources' badly formatted on AUR - should I bug report it?

Hello,
Just stumbled upon this page today. As you can see, the 'sources' info is so badly formatted (fetched wrong contents from the PKGBUILD), I never saw this before. Is this fault of the PKGBUILD, or should it be reported as a bug of the AUR description parser?

Ehhh. This comes up from time to time, the AUR's bash parser isn't perfect, and what is perfectly valid in bash, often looks like a bomb site on the AUR web interface.
Hopefully the upcoming upgrade of the AUR will help address this by increasing support for metadata files.

  • [SOLVED] WARNING: bad format of line 333654 of /etc/fstab

    Hi everyone,
    I know that there are couple of topics concerning my problem but non of them  was helpful, because my computer doesn't even boot.
    Here's how it started:
    I was trying to mount a game for the first time and something went wrong. I got message in terminal saying: the file couldn't be found in /etc/fstab so I pasted the iso image in /etc/fstab. I quit trying to mount and changed the appearance of my desktop (changed the theme, wallpaper the size of the folders etc.) and restarted the computer. When the booting started everything was normal until the message  WARNING: bad format of line 333654 of /etc/fstab showed up it started to go on and on and on - the same message with different numbers and it doesn't stop.
    What should I do?
    I've tried to use my apple laptop to go to my linux Arch pc but I get the message "Host is down"
    I also have a Kubuntu 9.10 i386 cd.
    I really don't want to re-install. I thought maybe there is a way to somehow get to /etc/fstab and delete the file I pasted.
    p.s
    I am new in Linux and Arch linux, I am still trying things and often do something silly that I have to find a way to fix

    /etc/fstab exists to be a file system table. It does not and indeed should not contain the contents of an image file such as an ISO. Disk images contain filesystems themselves, so the most you would need to put in /etc/fstab to mount them at boot is a line describing where the image sits and at what place in the filesystem it should be mounted.
    That message about not being able to find it in /etc/fstab appeared because you either didn't specify a mount point for the image or the specified mount point did not exist. But, first, you will need a live CD of some sort to fix your boot issue. You could use the Arch installation live CD to do it—I recommend it. Whatever you choose, you need to mount your root partition and edit <mountpoint>/etc/fstab. If you need to figure out what your root partition's name is in /dev/, type blkid. For example, on my system I would do something like this from the live cd to mount my root partition:
    # blkid
    /dev/sdb1: UUID="06f29dbd-8ce8-4d98-82ee-9e84b7d44758" TYPE="ext2"
    /dev/sdb2: UUID="3747c62b-2be0-415e-bdba-58ca44a67f6d" TYPE="swap"
    /dev/sdb3: LABEL="roothome" UUID="50f8625e-3eeb-4578-9229-e7030bd2a082" TYPE="ext4"
    /dev/sda1: UUID="7CAC3BEAAC3B9D98" TYPE="ntfs" LABEL="System Reserved"
    /dev/sda2: LABEL="halite_windows" UUID="92863FB7863F9AA5" TYPE="ntfs"
    /dev/sdc1: LABEL="citrine" UUID="35987e49-a4e7-4c5f-81cb-1a4e87373ecc" TYPE="ext4"
    # mkdir /mnt/roothome
    # mount -t ext4 /dev/sdb3 /mnt/roothome
    # vim /mnt/roothome/etc/fstab # to edit the fstab
    Once chrooted, edit the /etc/fstab file with your favorite console editor, e.g. vim, nano, emacs, and remove all the stuff you pasted in. It might be helpful to copy the first 20-30 lines of the file – that should be about all your fstab should need – truncate it, and then add the mounts that you copied. (Indeed, it should be possible to use sed or another utility to truncate the file after the last line of the fstab, before the data image begins.)
    In the future, if you see a message about not being able to find the file in /etc/fstab, create a mountpoint for it:
    # mkdir /mnt/iso
    # mount -t iso9660 image.iso /mnt/iso/

    When you go into the bug tracker, there's a drop down list on your left that says "Arch Linux". Go into there, select "Community Packages", and pres the "switch" button right next to it.

  • HTMLDocument ending with SUB TAG=bad formatting

    Hi, I have a problem when tring to format text in JTextPane in HTMLDocument. When the text ends with </SUB> and I call document..setCharacterAttributes(0, doc.getLength(), attrs, false) text formatting goes wrong!!
    Why? Is it not possible to end text in document with "text<SUB>sub text</SUB>"?
    I prepared some sample code below, which should clarify what I want. Click one of 4 buttons to setText, then click repeatedly Format button to change its format.
    I want to know what am I doing wrong and how to do it right. Problem lies in calling method setCharacterAttributes. When changing its parameters I get different formattings, and not the one I expect :-( .
    When the formatting goes wrong all characters are put inside SUB tag. HTML code then looks like this:
    <html>
      <head>
        <font color="#000000" size="4" face="Arial"><sub>//<--This SUB tag is is added too
    </sub></font>  </head>
      <body>
        <font color="#000000" size="4" face="Arial"><sub>text that had many sub tags and now has none and is inside this sub tag, when this tag shouldnt exist</sub></font>
      </body>
    </html>Please HELP!!!

    Actually I have very little knowledge about html handling in java. On you particular problem, I just went and browsed through the source code in search for the sub tag (which I didn't know before by the way) to see what effect it had on the StyledDocument.
    As far as your performance problem in loading html pages, my best advice would be to conduct experiments and try to see where the bottleneck is. I know that there is a way to make setPage synchronous. It has to do with setting some variable in the Document (I guess searching the forum might help on this). This can make it easier to actually measure how long it takes. Moreover, you might want to try and load a small page first and then your heavy one : that way you'll know if it has to do with loading the classes of the HTMLEditorKit. Another advice would be to make sure you feed your JEditorPane with pure HMTL 3.2. I have no idea about this but maybe parsing unknown tags slows down the loading (pure guess). One last advice would be to make multiple versions of your file with slight modifications in each case (like remove the tables, for instance). That might help determine if it has anything to do with the actual content you're trying to load.

    How to deal with file dir? what format of dir should be?

    Hi Kamlesh,
    Thanks for your response.
    Actually, In the "Process External Bank Statement" window, i see that there are few entries which is for the previous year and which has not been reconciled. I have never worked practically on BRS and hence, i am scared to make any changes in the clients database without being confident on what i am doing. I need to reconcile for one of their Bank a/c for the month of April '08. I have the copy of the statements for the month ending 31st Mar 08 and 30th Apr 08. The closing balances are as below:
    31/03/08 - 2300000.00
    30/04/08 - 3100000.00
    Now my OB for Bank a/c for April '08 in SAP is 2300000.00 Dr.
    When i go to External Bank Reconciliation - Selection Criteria Screen (Manual Reconciliation), here are the detail that i enter:
    Last Balance: INR -7,000,000.00000 (Grayed out by the system)
    Ending Balance: INR -3,100,000.00000 (Entered by me)
    End Date: 30/04/08 (Entered by me)
    "Reconciliation Bank Statement" Screen opens up and shows the below balances in the screen:
    Cleared Book Balance: INR -7,000,000.00000
    Statement Ending Balance: INR -3,100,000.00000
    Difference: INR 3,800,000.00000
    As per the Bank statement, i have found all the transactions listed out here for the month of Apr '08 but, i also found that the open transactions for the previous month from April '08 have been lying in "Process External Bank Statement" window.
    Could you please help me solve my issue as to what needs to be done or could you also get me some links from where i can get few documents for processing External Bank Reconciliations?
    That will be of a great help for me. I need steps as to what needs to be done first and then the next so that i can arrive at the correct closing balance for the month April '08.
    Thanks in Advance....

    Why Acrobat x professional is changing the text formatting specifically the font family  and the font size of the text in my pdf on exporting it to Microsoft word file format ?How should i stop Acrobat x professional from doing that so that i get an exactly same word file on exporting it from its pdf counterpart?

    I was testing the preciseness & efficiency of Adobe acrobat x professional's doc conversion capabilities. As i have to take a document editing project in future which is going to need lot of pdf to word and vice versa conversions . What I did was I created a test word document converted into a pdf using a pdf maker in my word 2007 , Acrobat did convert the document from word to pdf keeping everything in the source file intact , However when i tried the other way round and attempted to convert the same pdf to word 2007 file format I lost my formatting ?So the font that I used to create the pdf are the ones taken from word 2007 which i believe is using the fonts that are installed in my computer. Any suggestions on how to preserve the formatting of the document after converting it from pdf to word file format?
    Regards

  • Illustrator File Will Not Open -  Error message "Object label badly formatted"

    I have been working on a large image file for one of my classes; it has many layers and custom swatches, no text. I work on Creative Cloud at home, CS6 at school, and I think I had my .ai file saved under legacy file format CS4 trying to be safe (because I was not sure of my school's version and I have had a lot of problems accessing my files at school because of the version differences). I have been working on it back and forth between computers for quite a while, and today--while I had the image on my computer recently--it says "Acrobat PDF File Format is having difficulties: Object label badly formatted" if I try to open it.
    I have tried: updating Adobe Illustrator; creating a new AI document and "placing" the file into it; opening the file in Acrobat (the file opened, which was a step...but it only showed a tiny portion of the artwork and left the rest blank. Under the tools, however, it still showed the image had 15 layers (under the layer menu)--and it had them marked them as "visible"--but there wasn't anything I could do to actually view them; I tried copy/pasting into illustrator from Acrobat; opening in Acrobat and "saving as" a PDF (it said "The document could not be saved. There was a problem reading the document (111)"; and I just did a system restore hoping that could exorcise the demons--but no such luck so far.
    Do you have any ideas? I would greatly appreciate any words of wisdom and support you might have...and chocolate.
    Thanks for reading this.

    We now understand the problem, and are testing a solution. Here's my current understanding of all the elements of this issue.
    CAUSE: The problem occurs in an interaction between Illustrator CS4, Suitcase Fusion 2 v13.2, and having an Illustrator document with one or more text boxes, containing text, which is *completely* off the artboard—not even the bounding box is touching the artboard. *Additionally*, there must also be at least one text box, with text in it, which is *on* the artboard (even so much as having the bounding box partly on the artboard is sufficient, again). When these conditions are met, saving the document *may* (but does not always) cause the problem.
    PROBLEM: Attempting to open an affected document in Illustrator CS4 fails, with an "object label badly formatted" error. The problem can occur with older illustrator documents opened in CS4, as well as native CS4 documents.
    UNAFFECTED: Despite any speculation in this thread, this problem does not affect Photoshop, nor has it occurred with any version of Extensis Suitcase older than Suitcase Fusion 2 v13.2, which shipped about eight days ago.
    SOLUTION: The problem should be resolved by a 13.2.1 dot release. Although things could be delayed if we find something unexpected in testing, we currently expect to have the fix available this week, probably tomorrow (Thursday).
    DOCUMENT RECOVERY: Extensis can fix any Illustrator CS4 document which exhibits this problem. For now, contact Extensis tech support if you need help with recovering any such Illustrator document. Be prepared to send tech support the affected Illustrator file(s). You can use the online contact form at http://www.extensis.com/en/support/contact_prod_support.jsp, or call tech support at 1-503-274-7030.

    Any ideas? Does the package produce any log files / alerts that I could check or is it possible to execute in a verbose mode so I can debug?
    Thanks,

    Welcome to the forum.
    That error comes from your SMTP server, and it indicates there's something wrong with the email address.
    You could try the following and see if that works:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE test_email
    IS
    BEGIN
      UTL_MAIL.send(sender => 'test <[email protected]>',
                    recipients => '[email protected]',
                    subject => 'UTL_MAIL test subject',
                    message => 'UTL_MAIL test body'
    END;
    /Some more inputs can be read here: Reg.SMTP Error while using UTL_MAIL in Oracle 10g
    Also, when you want post formatted examples, just use the {noformat}{noformat} tag before and after your examples.
    So, when you type:
    {noformat}select *
    from dual;{noformat}

  • Acrobat pdf file format is having difficulties. Object label badly formatted.

    I'm using Adobe Illustrator CS5 on a PC (Windows XP)
    When I try to open one particular file, I get the following message:
    "Acrobat pdf file format is having difficulties. Object label badly formatted."
    I've seen some discussions about this error msg previously, but only when using CS4, and everyone was referring to some type of "suitcase fusion", which I am not using.
    Any help that you can provide would be greatly appreciated

    I created the file in Illustrator CS5 and saved it as an .ai file.
    It does not open in Acrobat or Reader... not sure what other programs you think I should try?
    It's basically a bunch of lines and some text... the text is a Font that we use here at the MTO (FHWA)
    This is the first time I've ever had this problem.
    The weird thing is if I try to open the file in Illustrator by clicking "File", then "Open..." and then highlight the file in the "Open Dialog Window", I can see a preview of the file.  But then when I finally click "open" in the dialog window, I get that error message?

    was sent to my entire address book, and now when I try to sent a hotmail I get an error message saying Attachment Id Has Bad Format, even though there is no attachment. (This problem does not happen in IE8)
    I did Hotmail help and their response was ''''I advise you to optimize your browser. If you have a browser that’s not Internet Explorer, you can visit its Help section.''''
    How do I optimize Firefox 3.6.12?
    or what other suggestions do you have

    Delete any traces of Silverlight from your HD, you will be able to send attachments normally thereafter.

  • Attachment id has bad format

    I get error message 'attachment has bad format id' when I'm try to sent a attachment in hotmail.com started when I upgraded to mac os x version 10.7

    Try removing spaces from the filename - that worked fine for me. Seems like one of the penalties of using Hotmail...

    Hotmail are having a few hiccups at the moment. It may pay to go to their site and check their troubleshooting tips.

  • Recovered files "object label badly formatted" .ai files

    I just had a mishap where all of my graphic files were deleted due to operator error.  I bought a file recovery software which said it supported .ai files, and they show up like a normal .ai file but when I try to open them in illustrator I get the following error:
    Acrobat PDF File Format is having difficulties. Object label badly formatted.
    If anyone has a possible idea on how to access these files again, please let me know, I lost a ton of illustrator work that can not easily be re-drawn.
    Thanks

    I keep finding posts about CS4 and .pdf files having this issue, but none that seems to parallel my issue.  I am working in CS3 (primitive I know, I just haven't had the funds to upgrade).  Thanks for posting, but I am not on a MAC but will have access to one tomorrow at work.  I will try your suggestion on my lunch hour and hope that works.
