Re: [crux-contrib] Request for contrib access

Hi James, thanks! For now I would like to suggest the following ports: + exfat related ports (exfat-utils and fuse-exfat) + freeradius (opensource radius server) + tacplus (opensource tacacs+ server) + networkmanager related packages (openvpn plugins) + kdeplasma-applets-plasma-nm I would suggest this package to move to the kde4 port rather than contrib. It's the successor of the "kde-applet-networkmanagement" package already there. This will keep kde packages together. If there is interest I would also add the following packages, but not now because I just started to use them and in my opinion not fully tested yet, but they work fine so far in case someone wants to use them now. + openconnect (opensource vpn client for cisco's AnyConnect ssl vpn platform) + networkmanager-openconnect Before doing that, I'll check the versions and dependencies to make sure to cover the rules and make sure that things build properly. Regards, Shin

Dear Crux Team, I would like to request access to the contrib repository to be able to post packages that may be of interest/use to others. I currently maintain the repository "shin". Best Regards, Shin

Docker 0.9 Release and Port Update(s)
by James Mills 11 Mar '14

11 Mar '14

Hi All, Those of you who are interested in Docker[1], 0.9 has just been releasd and I have updated the ``contrib/docker`` and ``contrib/docker-bin`` ports respectively. Other changes to the port(s) include slight modifications to the ``README`` as well as the ``/etc/rc.d/docker`` rc script. Please review the ``README`` carefully if you are attempting to create a CRUX Docker environment. One other important change is that Docker 0.9 no longer depend son lxc and instead comes shipped with a pluggable "execution driver" and by default ships with a built in "libcontainer" execution engine that replaces Docker's reliance on lxc. There is still an "lxc" execution engine and you can still use this if you wish (but I nor Docker recommend this as the new libcontainer execution engine is far more stable and talks directly to the Kernel). If you have any problems or queries feel free to email me personally or on the list or chat to me on FreeNode #crux (prologic). cheers James James Mills / prologic E: prologic(a)shortcircuit.net.au W: prologic.shortcircuit.net.au

espeak + mbrola == Text to Speech for CRUX/Linux
by James Mills 02 Mar '14

02 Mar '14

Hey all, I've added espeak, mbrola and en1, us1, us2 and us3 mbrola voices to my personal ports repo (1) I'm trying this out and so far it works really well. If anyone else is interested I could consider putting them up on contrib for all to access/install easily. cheers James James Mills / prologic E: prologic(a)shortcircuit.net.au W: prologic.shortcircuit.net.au
