Suggest: pacman should have an option to ignore package chk

I am a new Archlinux user. I have tried to install Archlinux in my computer several times. To avoid additional network access, I always backup the pkg.tar.gz files from my cache folder before installing Archlinux and restore them after first boot into the new system and before running "pacman -Syu".
Last time I tried to use the ABS system to build my own packages with customized CFLAGS & CXXFLAGS. I was using srcpac to build some system packages without any problem.
However, next time when I try to reinstall my system the pacman complains about "corrupted" .pkg.tar.gz files. Because I can use "pacman -U " to install them (but not "pacman -S"), I recon the files are not corrupted and the only problem is that they are not downloaded from archlinux.org (or any other mirror sites) but compiled in the previous Archlinux system installed in the same computer.
I have tried to find out options available in the menu of pacman but I have not found any option to avoid this problem.
Here is my SUGGESTION: add an option (say "--nocheck") which ignores the integraty check of the files.

So, what should I do to for the new installation? How to restore the my repo in the new installation? And if I replaced some packages in "core" repo or even "base" group with some compiled packages in my local repository, which checksum will be detected first?
It depends what repo comes first in your pacman.conf. If you put your personal repo at first place (or exactly, before the official repos), pacman will use your self compiled packages and so prevent updates. You have to take care for that yourself. In the opposite case your selfmade packages will be overinstalled with next update.
If you only want to install one specific package, you can use the syntax "pacman -Sy <repo>/<package>" to install from a specific repo.
As you can see, if I use a local repo I have to worry about the update of repos, and it is not a solution good enough.
I am not sure whether "pacman -Sy <repo>/<package>" is working or not, because when you are installing a package all the dependents has to be installed first. If the dependent packages is also customised and have another version (with SAME version number), can pacman check the same repo before checking the "core"/"extra"/"community" repos? If the answer is yes I recon this is a good solution.

How to avoid transparent background converting to white in smart object(psb )when image trace High Fidelity as we have the option of ignore white upto 16 colors trace.

i have a psd image file in photoshop cc 2014 that has transparent background layer. I wanted it to convert to vector. The best option i saw was to first convert it to smart object in photoshop via Layer->Smart Objects-> Convert to smart Object. then exported it to a psb. Then i opened the file in illustrator and applied the image trace tool but the transparent background got converted to white but i had the option of ignore white upto 16 colors trace. But in case of High Fidelity Conversion, the ignore white option is not available, what should I do now?

after using high fidelity image trace i hit expand, then i went to layers and hit the drop arrow by my thumbnail, which then shows <Group>,hit that drop arrow and it will show a list of all your paths, the very bottom one was my white background, you can click the eye or delete that path and it disappeared for me. i was using a png file with a transparent background, and nothing else worked for me, it always converted with white background, i never saw this mentioned anywhere, and accidentally discovered it, hope it works!!!

Why can't I delete an iCloud account, I think we should have that option, this is ridiculous.

I worry about my information floating around some server through Icloud when I don't want it there. Apple should provide a way to completely delete an icloud account from everywhere - devices, the web etc. If I had known that I wouldn't have this option, I would have never signed up for one considering all the trouble icloud has caused me. It keeps losing my contacts etc. Am I the only one that is annoyed and frustrated by this?
I can delete an account from my iphone 5s but not from the internet. ***?

You can't delete the actual account. In part this is probably to prevent the address from becoming available again and someone else grabbing it and pretending to be you. You can go to the website and delete all your data there so that it's empty, and then just ignore it.

[Desktop] Every grid view should have an option for a vertical listing

For example the Artists screen under Your Music, and albums displayed on an artist page. Grid views are kind of pretty if you like colours. They're pretty awful for finding a particular thing by name. For example if I am looking for Infected Mushroom I have to scan down the left column for something around roughly "I" in the alphabet, then switch to scanning sideways. It all happens very fast but it's tedious and it is more cognitive effort than required. Compare this with the current iTunes Artists view on OSX. It gives you all your artists stacked in a single column on the left. It's very easy to scan with your eyes for a particular artist using alphabetical order. By all means keep the grid views—please just add another option so those of us who prefer one-row-per-item can have it.

Abuse Button should have more options

After some months in the productive environment I suggest that the abuse categories should get a makeover. Not sure about you, but I use "General abuse" 99% of the time. There should be additional categories such as
Link farm
Meaningless subject
Plagiarisation
Did not search
Asking for documents
Offering or asking for points
...etc. according to forum rules
There should also be a neutral "Moderator info" category that does not count towards "five reports and thread is gone", e.g. for reporting that an otherwise appropriate question should be move to the correct forum.
I suggested something similar in the following thread, but it went unnoticed, so I try again.
Re: Message before posting new thread
Any interest or more ideas?
Cheers
Thomas

From my experience of handling the Abuse Reports, it is always best to catch them as early as possible. In the Console where mods can check the reports for their respective forums, there is already a possibility to obtain a quick overview of them by checking the category and the comments and some filters - but generally it is necessary to go to the forum thread and take a look at all of it (not just the post being reported) and some of the related posts before taking action.
I agree that extending the range of the report categories to include the SDN specific ones (the current ones seem more geared to chat rooms like alt.politics and alt.xxx... :-). I suspect that can be done quite easily, but don't know.
What is often most usefull (also for prioritizing) is to add a short text to the comment field to explain the reason. That is the first thing I look for.

For larger Android 2.2 tablets, We should have the option of full size HTML pages by default. How?

On the new ViewSonic gTablet 10.1 inch screen - rebuilt to use a base Android 2.2 OS and not the faulty one from Viewsonic, I loaded the Firefox 4 beta for Mobile. The issue is that it is not giving me an option to allow it to show all content in a non-mobile format so every site visited that has mobile content shows it like it would look on a small phone device which on this screen shows huge text and everything is way over sized. Can you give us an option to make it so it does not indicate to the site we are visiting that it is a mobile device so we can experience a full page (normal pc) view without having to search the page for a button that says "show full html page"?

Try the "Phony" add-on, for sites that don't give you an option of switching to their full versions: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/mobile/addon/162014/

Suggestion: Forums should have an FAQ

Hi All,
I have spent the last hour or more looking through posts from the last 4 months. I am looking for information about installing the 9iAS with a 9i Database. There are lots of questions about this same thing. It would be handy if there were an FAQ where there was one authoritative answer to the question instead of bits and pieces here and there.
Just a thought,

3. I want to predownload the Sattelite View maps of a country and not just the ordinary one.
4. It should have Ring Profiles such us Meeting, Loud Area, Silence and other.
A. Need update the levels of the brightness of the screen.
At this moment it has only 3 steps (Low-Medium-High), so it needs at least 2 more such us (Very Low and Very High).
B. In Screen Lock needs up to 10 options for software fast state.
C. In Fast Eye View in Night Mode should have not only 3 colors such us (Red,Green,Blue) but all the 20 colors that Thems has.
The Size of the clock should be adjustable and not just one size.
It should have at least 3 sizes (Small-Medium-Large).
D. The camera should take only 1 photo in 38MP and not 2 photos 5MP+38MP.
Also we should have the ability to edit the 38MP on my phone and not only on my PC.
E. In Bluetooth i dont have any options.
I need to change my BlueTooth Name and i cant.
Also I want to set some BlueTooth devices to white and black list and i cant.
F. I should have the option to know how much battery i have in percentage between 0-100% also in minutes left.
G. In Wifi options i should know how much in percent is the signal between 0-100%.
H. The tiles even when it is in small or medium size should be move as it was in large size.

P.S. I have the Nokia PureView 808 and i want to transfer Contacts, Messages, Calendars, Notes, Photos, Music, Videos to my new Nokia Lumia 1020 and i cant.
How can i transfer it all fast, secure and easy?

Hello Paul.
Thank you for your time and for your continue helping me.
I see all help Nokia Videos and i did all your steps tha you suggest me.
1. Ok but is says up something about Hotmail can i remove the hotmail option also?.
2. I deselect the Sync for the accounts but still left some contacts inside my phone.
Also when i want to backup my telephone numbers what i must do but not get messed with the email accounts.
I want to backup the phone numbers as i did with my nokia account.
My nokia account doesnt work with my lumia 1020.
3. In the 1st i need to tap 2 times and then save.
Cause the 1st menu is History Calls and if i tab once continue then the only option that i have is erase element.
When i tab once then it goes me to profil for call and sms so i tab continue the call number and gives me the option copy.
This to moves could be as one as it is in Symbian Belle.
Not need to tab 2 times.
In the 1st menu when i tab continue should give me 3 options Edit,Copy,Erase.
Thats why Symbian Belle still rules.
4. I dont want to use 1st the name cause also i have more contacts that have the same name than have contacts who have the same last name.
Also many of the names and last names i have it use more than 10 characters in 1st and in last name each.
So total is more than 20 characters without spaces or other characters.
for example "Panagiotis Papadopoulos" is 23 characters most of the names that i have inside is between 20-30 characters.
Please do something about that.
5. Still need fix must disconnect the volume zoom from ringtone and vibration.
Also need vibration some choices as continoues or with short pauses or increasing - decrease vibrating.
6. I have 3 classes which are 40 people in each.
So total is 120 students.
I cant do 6 Groups for informing them.
I need 1 up to 3 Groups not more.
Also my co-workers are about 100 I cant do more than 1 or 2 Groups.
My relatives are also about 60 also i need 1 Group again.
I cant have so many groups as you tell me.
Basicly I need 3 Groups to be easy and practicaly for me not 20 Groups.
If Groups is not about then for what is?
Also why in Symbian Belle i could add as many as i wanted and here i cant?
What then i need to do 3 Groups?
7. I try to do what you are telling me and it works only when i am not use 1st the search button.
1st i must found the people that i want to inform.
For example i set character 1 for class 1
then when i use the search to find who is in class 1
then shows me all the students in class 1
but i must choose everyone, one by one and do all the same steps from the beggining.
it should give me the option when has found the 30 person to set some box in the left and chooce all of them.
That is not happening.
Please check it.
8. Finaly I found my 5MP + 38MP in the phone but 1st i must extract the 38MP to my computer so to edit.
But i want to use always only my 38MP and never my 5MP photos.
So we need some how to disable the option to take 2 pictures one 5MP and one 38MP.
Its must take only one 38MP and nothing else.

AEBSn and PPPoE -- should I tell it to ignore the error?

Hello. I posted this in a previous related discussion, but I'm not sure that anyone is still checking that as no one has responded to my note, so I've decided to put this in a new post...
Well, I I recently updated my AEBSn firmware (as well as upgraded to 10.4.11) and now, after months of good behavior, I'm suddenly getting a "No PPPOE Server can be found" error with amber blinking light -- but different than some other folks who've had this problem, I am still able to connect to the Internet, both wirelessly and through the Ethernet connection. I tried restarting my DSL Modem (a Gateway) and the AEBS, but nothing changed.
I see that I do have the option to "Ignore" the warning which will get rid of the blinking amber light. Should I? Everything seems to be working -- if I just tell the Airport to ignore what is troubling it, will I be setting myself up for pain later? It's just that the error message keeps popping up on my laptop and it's a bit annoying...
If anyone can help me, I'd really appreciate it!
Thanks,
Alex

Thank you for the welcome!
Yes, my Internet provider does require a username and password. So, I had entered it into the Airport Utility and everything was working fine for about 7 months, when suddenly I've been getting this error. Right now, under the Network PPPoE panel of my system preferences, none of the fields are filled in nor is the "Connect using PPPoE" checkbox checked -- so I don't think it's PPPoE filled in to two places. The only thing that is filled in for PPPoE is the Airport Utility. (The DSL modem is set up to be just a bridge right now.)
Like I said, I didn't change any of my settings, and I can still access the Internt fine -- it's just that shortly after I updated the OS and the firmware on the Airport, this error started popping up. And it's annoying.
Should I just hit the "Ignore" button?

Hi All,
I need your expert advice to proceed. I bought apple TV and it works fine with my iPad and iPhones also fine with itune of my Mac Book Pro BUT I am not seeing setting which says "Airplay Mirroring" in system preference -> Display at all.
I checked my mac serial number and it shows the model as below. As far as I understood this feature should be there from 2011 onwards.
MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2011)
Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63b)
Please suggest!!
Thanks and Regards

Did the email contain your name? Never click on a link in an email like that and do no enter any personal info after clicking in an email.
There have been quite a few people getting these emails. They are a phishing attempt to get your personal info.

I think we should have been given the option to move books from iTunes to iBooks. All mine were downloaded CD booklets and inserts which were in their right place in iTunes. What do others think?

I think we should have been given the option to have our books moved from iTunes to iBooks. All mine were CD booklets and inserts downloaded with the CDs, and the obvious place for them was in iTunes. As it is now, I can no longer use my own convention for naming, sorting etc. The sort facility in iBooks does not work. What do others think?

Unless you have the source files that were on the TC or Windows machine you will have to start over with a new library as follows:
Start over from scratch with new library
Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
1. Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
2. Open the library package like this.
Click to view full size
3. Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
4. Drag the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
Click to view full size
This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects. Your original library will remain intact for further attempts at fixes is so desired.
