Why is Boost being downgraded from Version 1.42 to the older 1.41?

Just ran pacman -Syu and noticed the package Boost Version 1.41 is going to replace the newer Boost 1.42. Why the downgrade, does anyone know what happened? I personally didn't have any conflicting issues with Boost 1.42, perhaps others have? By downgrading versions, many new features such as library improvements in Asio, Circular Buffer, Fusion, Graph, Integer, Iostreams, Program Options, Property Map, Regex, Spirit, Unordered, and Xpressive are being lost.

Hi,
http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/18470#comment59302
there is a serious issue with boost 1.42 and upstream doesn't have a fix yet. An user suggested that is better to downgrade boost to 1.41.
What do you think about this? Wait upstream to fix this and backport it or downgrade? If downgrade, who want to help on rebuilding?

I am against the downgrade of boost.
We have to find a solution for encfs, and we cannot downgrade and rebuild all of the packages just for encfs.

maybe i wasn't clear. encfs is a special case and is broken because of a bug in boost. pasting the comment here:
> What distribution are you using? A ticket needs to be filed with that > distribution that they should *not* upgrade to boost-1.42, as it can > cause silent data lose for programs using boost serialization.

so what i'm understanding from here is that upstream doesn't want us to ship boost 1.42

This is not "just for encfs", but for serious datacorruption. Encfs is
an example of something that breaks, but if serialization and
deserialization doesn't return the same data as the input data, then
things can go seriously wrong.

Go for it.  It is a small rebuild list and can be moved from [testing] as soon as the build is finished (we know 1.41 works...).
I'd appreciate if this was done quickly.  I have a toolchain update and the start of the gmp rebuild sitting on my here waiting to upload.

    How Do i create a list that will show in a dropdown box with the list being pulled from another tab and not the cell data format junk?
    I currently run OS X 10.10.1
    Now i have been trying to work on this for a while now and what i want to do should be simple but its apparently not.
    Here is an example of what i want to happen.
    I will have 2 tabs: Contact | Sales
    Now Contacts will have the list of names and various information about a customer, While Sales will have one drop-down box for each Cell Row that will show the names of the person in tab contacts
    for what i am wanting to do i cant use the data format pop-up menu because the list is edited everyday several times a day.
    Now how do i do this, Excel can do this so how can numbers do it?

  • I would very much like to understand why Siri is being marketed as something new.  before the latest Iphone Siri was a free app.  Now it is no longer available???  Assumption is to use Siri I must buy a new iphone

    i would very much like to understand why Siri is being marketed as something new.  before the latest iphone  Siri was a free app which was present on my old iphone.  Recently purchased another 3G and Siri is is no longer available???  Assumption is to use Siri I must buy  the latest and greatest  iphone. 

    Siri that is in the iPhone 4S is "new". It is based on technology the old app used (Apple bought the company), but it has been extended, enhanced, improved and integrated into the OS in a way the old app never could.
    So, yes, now to use Siri you need an iPhone 4S. It is no longer available as a separate, third-party app.

  • Why is email being sent from my secondary and not from my default account as per my settings - even when I remove the secondary email account?

    I have 2 email accounts on my iPhone 4S. My secondary account is a gmail account. My primary account (not gmail) is set as my default account. Why, when I compose a new message in my primary account and then send, the email is issued from from gmail? And then why if I delete/ remove my gmail account from my iPhone and then compose a new message from my primary account (now the only account on my iPhone) it still sends from the gmail account?

    No, "My Number" was not listed in my Phone menu, I had to manually type it it.  Is there a way for that number to automatically be listed in that "My Number" spot?  Would that maybe have something to do with my phone number not being listed as an option in the "Send and Receive" spot under messaging???

  • Issue Shift + Restore to downgrade from version 3.1.3 to version 3.1.2

    Hi all,
    I notice that there are some ways to get from version 3.1.3 to 3.1.2 . The most common method i have noticed is the Download a individual 3.1.2 patch file , enter iTunes with iPhone in usb, HOLD shift and click the Restore button. What this does for other people is that it opens a Browse Window to choose the 3.1.2 patch file (which is on the desktop) and it would be able to restore the iPhone to 3.1.2 version. I have seen this worked successfully on several computers / videos / friends.
    *However, my issue is that when i HOLD shift and click the Restore button, nothing happens (Browser Window does not open, and the pop up for 3.1.3 version appears _'instead of 3.1.2'_), as if i had not held Shift and Click on Restore.*
    -both my shift Buttons are working fine 100% (even from keyboard diagnostics)
    -my laptop is Acer Aspire 6920g , Windows Vista 32bit
    -iPhone version is currently 3.1.3
    -iTunes is at its latest version 9
    -have checked google, apple support etc etc. most with success/failure.
    -common solution methods do not seem to work for my case.
    So my question would be, is there any reason to why Holding Shift and Clicking Restore Button not work ?
    How do i make the Shift + Restore, browser window open? (if there is a solution)
    warm regards,
    kingofmuffin

    Assuming you profile is correct, I'd say make an appointment at the Market Mall Apple store in Calgary to have the phone looked at. Upgrading to 3.1.3 should have no issues with wifi. First try some basic troubleshooting & back up the phone befor the appointment. Any 3GS iPhone is still under warranty.

  • Why is mail being sent from wrong account

    I am trying to send mail from a specific account, however even though it is showing as the correct account when it is received it is from my partners account.  I have followed the @mail@ set up and checked everything - which appears to be ok - but it is still wrong somewhere.  HELP please.

    I am having this same issue.  I have several accounts (all .live) which I use for my various different jobs.  Frequently now I am sending a mail, or replying to a mail, and it is being received from the wrong account.
    - I check the account at the top of the mail that I am sending is correct.
    - the mail listed in my 'Sent' folder shows as being sent from the correct account.
    - When a client replies to my mail, the reply comes to an incorrect account, and on their email the heading for my original mail shows the incorrect email address & name.
    - the email accounts seem to be random - not always the same incorrect one is used.

  • Why no video out content from my iMac G5 since the OS X 10.5.7 update

    I use Apple Video Adapter which is connected to my HDTV, to view video or .jpg files from my iMac G5. It worked perfectly until Mac Update advised me to install the latest update, 10.5.7. However, now that I have done so, my TV says no video signal is being received from the Apple Video Adapter s-video line. The TV does receive s-video content from other video components such as my DVD player, when connected through the same input jack. So I know my HDTV doesn't have the problem. I haven't seen any discussions on this problem as yet and for lack of a solution, I am contemplating using Time Machine to restore my iMac to the prior OS, 10.5.6. Does anyone have a simpler solution before I resort to this drastic measure?

    I eventually went to the Genius Bar at the Apple Store and discovered that a kink in the s-video cable caused the problem. Thanks "Genius Bar". I don't know what I would have done without you.

    Sounds like you are trying to stream the songs vice having them downloaded to th iPod.
    First go to Settings>iTunes and App Store and turn OFF SHOW ALL
    If still problem
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music

  • Cannot download a new version of iTunes because the older version of Bonjour cannot be removed.

    I lost iTunes due to a virus.  Now I cannot download iTunes, because the older version of Bonjour cannot be removed.

    Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another install. Does it go through this time?

  • What version of jre is the older style java look and feel?

    I have two windos xp systems, one running the 1.5.0_05 JRE and one running the 1.4.2_08 JRE.
    The system that has the more up to date version has a more aesthetically pleasing java (metal) LookAndFeel. The older version has dark gray buttons/backgrounds and has purple scrollbars. The newer version has a lighter gray background with light blue (and partially shaded) buttons, scrollbars, checkboxes, etc.
    Does anyone know what version of the JRE made the move from the older style LookAndFeel to the newer one?
    Thanks!

    There were only maintence releases between 1.4.2 and 1.5.0. So the answer is 1.4.2 (old) 1.5.0 (new).

  • I have upgraded to newer version of labview, and the older versions of LavVIEW are now piling up. Can I uninstall the older versions? if yes how?

    Do I have to keep all the old versions of LabVIEW as I did not uninstall the older versions, but only downloaded the latest version of labview from the website and installed it. A new version and icon is installed on my PC now. What can I do?

    You asked "Do I have to keep all the old versions...". Of course not. You can do whatever you want. Each version of LabVIEW installs in its own directory, which is what allows you to keep multiple versions installed in case you need to support programs written in earlier version that cannot be upgraded yet for whatever reason. Conflicts may arise if you install older versions later than new ones and you install the libraries for the hardware interfaces like VISA and such. Older versions of these libraries sometimes cause problems with newer versions of LabVIEW.
    If you do not want multiple versions, common practice is to completely uninstall the current version before installing the new one. If you have more than two versions but only want the latest, simply uninstall the older ones from the main NI installer. Depending on how old the versions are that you are uninstalling something with the new one may break so you may need to repair that installation. You may just want to simply uninstall all NI software and then just do a clean install of the latest version. That will likely be your best course of action.

  • Uninstalled new version, horrible. Installed the older version and now it won't open! HELP WANT MY MUSIC!

    I installed the new version thinking it would be the same, It was horrible! uninstalled it... Installed the older version and now it won't open and when I try it says it can't because the library can't open because it was used on a newer version. Come on! I just want my music! How do I open this and get my music back.
    I put my Ipod in and it still says the same thing, what's going on? Please help me!

    I don't know whom to thank first-- b noir for telling me about the Lorraine fix or Lorraine for figuring out the fix. THE LORRAINE FIX WORKED FOR ME!!! (I feel a little like I am advertising "Hooked on Phonics" with that last line!)
    Thank you doesn't say it strongly enough, but THANK YOU b noir and Lorraine for your help. I was to the boiling point last night and starting to get there tonight. Now I am resting easy and thankful that there is a community of computer users out there who care enough to troubleshoot problems together and work together to figure out a solution--and then to take the time to post and share information.
    I would STRONGLY suggest that anyone who is having the iTunes issues where iTunes just plain won't open at all after downloading the newest version and has a pc with Norton Internet Security 2005 try the "Lorraine Method."
    I am so happy I think I might sing. Or not--I will let my songs on iTunes do the singing for me now that I can again!!!!!!!
    And to those still looking for answers--be patient--I now know how incredibly frustrating this can be and I hope that you all find your solutions very very soon!!

  • Can't get the itunes version 8 to uninstall the older version

    Does anybody know how to get around uninstalling the older version of itunes so that the version 8 will install?

    When you ask a question you need to describe exactly what happened with any error messages, otherwise it is difficult for anyone to help you.
    Here is a generic way of dealing with uninstall problems.
    Download a fresh copy of iTunes and the stand alone version of Quicktime (the one without iTunes)
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instructions on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program.
    To run the program – All Programs>>Windows Install Cleanup
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
    Now use the following method to remove iTunes and its components:
    XP
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
    Vista
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    *If you hit a problem with one of the uninstalls don't worry*, carry on with the deleting of files and folders as directed in the method.
    When you get to deleting Quicktime files in the system32 folder as advised in the method, you can delete any file or folder with Quicktime in the name.
    Restart your PC.
    Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
    Remove any references you find to the programs you removed - strictly speaking you only need to worry about those programs where the uninstall failed.
    If you don’t see an entry for one of the programs that did not uninstall, look out for blank entries or numeric entries that look like version numbers e.g. 7.x for Quicktime or 1.x for Bonjour.
    restart your PC
    Install the stand alone Quicktime and check that it works.
    If it does, install iTunes.

  • Why are images being copied from a linked library that aren't modified

    I'm trying out the linked library feature and that is my preffered way of using iPhoto but I notice that many images that haven't been modified in iPhoto are being copied as full res modified images. My camera Nikon D2x supports auto rotation of verticle images which keeps me from having to manualy rotate these images. I understand that when I modify an image using iPhoto's tools that a full res image will be copied into a modified folder but why are images that have simply been tagged in camera as needing rotation being copied as well. Vertical images account for at least half of all images I shoot and diplaying them properly should be a look at exif or other metadata and applying rotation but since they are images straight from camera they shouldn't show as modified. Anyone have experience or suggestions on how to avoid having auto rotated images show as modified?

    blinden:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. I ran into that but in a different way. I had all of my image files in folders on a second HD and used another application to manage them. I decided to use iPhoto's alias method to work with the same files. I got a lot of files that were copied over as modified. Have no idea why. I ended up doing global revert to Original several times, watching the Modified folder via the Finder, until it became empty. I then closed iPhoto, dragged the Modified folder to the trash and then launched iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and rebuild the library using the first three options. That worked and got me a pristine library.
    I had not figured out why that happened. I've had the auto-rotate turned off for about a year now. Had I know what was causing it I could have checked to see if all of those bogus modified files occurred before I had turned off that option in the camera. I'm guessing now that that's what I would have found. Thanks for the info.
