lzo2 2.07-2/2.08-1 breaks OpenVPN

[archon]

rhester72's link is broken for me. Can anyone reupload?

for my 2 cents, I believe my openvpn connection is faster without the lzo compression. ( at least on my Pogoplug). Its likely a different story on a faster processor.

Thanks, it worked. pacman -Syu keeps asking to replace lzo2 with lzo, so I added it to IgnorePkg.

Looks like the lzo PKGBUILD has
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'pkgname=lzo')

but then has
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'provides=("lzo2=$pkgver")
replaces=('lzo2')
conflicts=('lzo2')')

On my alarm installation on pogo e02 I have the same problem with openvpn not working due to lzo2. However, on my system the pkgname shows as lzo which matches the above and is in keeping with the rename of lzo2 to lzo . But as can be seen above it will "provide" lzo2. So even though all packages have been changed to depend on lzo, the lzo package itself still "provides" lzo2 which is not in keeping with the rename of lzo2 to lzo.

I've installed abs, copied /var/abs/core/lzo to my home directory and built it using the following modified in the PKGBUILD using hydro's suggestion as a base. It's working great so far:

increment package release:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'pkgrel=4')

update provides, replaces, conflicts with lzo. Some users may still have lzo2 installed while others may have lzo. To address this just include both in provides, replaces, conflicts.:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'provides=("lzo2=$pkgver" "lzo=$pkgver")
replaces=('lzo2' 'lzo')
conflicts=('lzo2' 'lzo')')

add CFLAG to allow building on arm otherwise tests fail on my pogo e02 and it doesn't build:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'CFLAGS="-DLZO_DEBUG" ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-shared')

This problem is in upstream archlinux. I've been searching everywhere I can think of to determine how to submit a change to this PKGBUILD in upstream but cannot locate it. If anyone knows how let me know.

Also, since I had to add a CFLAG to get it to build on pogo e02 I believe this can be added to archlinuxarm PKGBUILDs.

Done. Bug for lzo. Thank you!

[mpadilla2]

Ok. great learning experience!

No changes needed. Just a rebuild of lzo and install will allow openvpn to work.

Thank you for that, I will try tonight! I have been fighting with that problem for a while, to the point that I have decided to stick with an old rootfs that I know is working.
Question for the developers: dooes that mean that there is a problem with the binary file in the repos? Otherwise I don't see why a simple recompile should fix the issue....

[mpadilla2]

In the bug that I had opened they recommended comparing the repo package to the recompile that I did from the abs pull. I have not had the chance to do that yet since Thanksgiving is right around the corner. However, I do intend on doing the comparison to see what is different. If it ends up being a bug I will open a new ticket unless someone else beats me to it!
