Arch Linux

Getting closer and closer to the actual release, but if you want to check it out right now and test it, just add these lines (the entry should be first in the list of repositories) to /etc/pacman.conf:

[gnome-unstable] Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

Obscurix is an open source, live operating system based on Arch Linux that is heavily configured for privacy, security and anonymity. It safely forces all traffic through the Tor network, has support for many other networks such as I2P and Freenet and is hardened a lot for security.

This article is a guide for achieving a full-as-possible Wayland setup on Arch Linux.

We are happy to announce our newest public service: A manual pages indexing site at man.archlinux.org that publishes the man pages of all our packages and allows you to search and browse them.

This is ultimately not very productive, but I've had free time lately for obvious worldly reasons.

I feel as if I'm missing something obvious, but is there any way to completely remove a package and its directories through pacman without running

rm -rf /path/to/directory]

manually after

pacman -Rs package_name

and hoping you get everything?

Otherwise, my best solution so far has been to run

tree

Today after a full upgrade and reboot Chromium didn't work. It stared but showed only errors, running it from the console I was able to see that it could not allocate memory. I had plenty of RAM so after a long search for the cause it turned out to be some bad configuration file in /etc/security/limits.d/ left by some package a long time ago. Removed that file and everything works fine now.
