A release tag now updates and pushes all three AUR packages once the
GitHub release exists, then commits the refreshed recipes back to main.
A push to main that changes the -git recipe publishes that package
alone; plain upstream commits need no AUR push because its pkgver()
follows git at build time.
Needs the AUR_SSH_PRIVATE_KEY repository secret.
The app, the tray and the search prompt route every user-visible string
through GNU gettext in the `pdfs` text domain, with named placeholders and
plural forms. po/ holds the template, update and build scripts, and catalogs
for de, en_GB, es, fr, it, nl, pl and pt_BR. Preferences gains a Language row
that overrides the system language from the next start (config `language`).
Packages compile the catalogs into /usr/share/locale and the desktop files
carry translated descriptions and keywords. docs/TRANSLATING.md describes
the workflow.
packaging/aur/ now holds the full content of three AUR repositories:
proton-drive-for-linux builds the latest tag from source,
proton-drive-for-linux-git builds main, and proton-drive-for-linux-bin
installs the binaries attached to the GitHub release. Each carries a
PKGBUILD, a generated .SRCINFO, an ignore-everything .gitignore, and the
0BSD license the AUR expects for package sources.
update.sh bumps the release-based packages and regenerates the .SRCINFO
files; push.sh publishes each package to its AUR remote. The README now
points users at the AUR packages and keeps the in-tree PKGBUILD as the
development build.
Four faults found by reading the journal for issues that were never fixed,
tracked as B94-B97 in docs/BUGS.md.
A create parked behind a temp-file rename (B70) had no exit but that rename,
so 43 uploads sat in the queue for weeks holding their staged bytes. The
primary drain worker now sweeps parked creates while the queue is idle: one
whose node is gone is discarded, and one older than PARK_EXPIRY_MS that nobody
holds open is un-parked rather than dropped, since staged bytes are the only
copy of the write. An open node stays parked however old it is.
.tmp and .temp leave TRANSIENT_SUFFIXES. The list served two mechanisms with
different consequences: ignoring a name during mirror reconcile is reversible,
parking a create is not, and a Takeout index.tmp is a final name that nothing
will ever rename.
Staged blobs that match no queued op and name no node were kept forever and
warned about once per blob per mount (95 blobs, ~445 MiB, oldest two months).
Blobs past STAGING_ORPHAN_RETAIN are retired; the rest are one aggregated
warning.
Refresh control requests now run one per scope. Every scope is individually
cheap, but duplicates contend for the database lock the running refresh holds,
which left five in flight for twenty-three minutes. request_kind names the
scope so the report says which view wedged. The photo metadata pass also stops
at shutdown instead of running into the cancelled runtime and logging one
"skipping undecryptable photo" per node.
Three things the 12,445-photo library showed that the tests did not.
A Pixel raw capture is two files named after the role each plays —
`PXL_….RAW-01.COVER.jpg` and `PXL_….RAW-02.ORIGINAL.dng` — so their stems differ
and the pairing rule never saw one shot. The marker is now cut off before names
are compared, narrowly: digits, then one role word, so an ordinary name that
happens to contain `.raw-` keeps its stem. Fed the real library's first 40 rows
through the grouping, they collapse to 21 tiles.
A raw that has a JPEG beside it is now painted with that JPEG's thumbnail, which
the server usually already holds. The Raw tab costs no raw download and no raw
decode for those tiles. Raws are found in one batched read, so an ordinary page
pays nothing for the lookup.
Photos could not be moved to Trash at all: they live on the photo volume, which
the mount never holds, so no `nodes` row exists, every authority answered
`Unknown`, and the write check refused the whole library with "trash access: not
allowed". Membership of our own timeline is the authority that does exist for a
photo, and it now answers. An album photo on someone else's volume still fails
closed.
Refreshing the gallery then reported `io: Resource temporarily unavailable (os
error 11)` (B92). The daemon held the control reply until the whole timeline had
been re-read — 63 batches of 200 nodes for this library, minutes of work against
a 120 s read bound. The daemon now answers as soon as the refresh is running,
`PhotosRefreshStatus` reports when it is done, and both front ends follow it: the
gallery reloads the page when it clears, and `pdfs refresh photos` blocks so the
command still means what it says. Each refresh logs its photo count, batch count
and duration.
Released as 1.11.0.
A supervisor thread ticks every 15 s and does three things: it WARNs
about a worker that has held one job for two minutes, a control request
that never returned, or a lane that has not completed anything while its
queue is non-empty; it samples resident size and the pending-op count
into the log every five minutes; and it answers the systemd watchdog.
The watchdog ping is deliberately not a heartbeat from a thread that
does nothing else — that would keep the unit "healthy" through exactly
the hang it is meant to catch. It goes out only after a real round trip
over the control socket, so it means "a client can still talk to this
daemon", which is the property that failed on 2026-09-18.
`sd_notify` is spoken directly rather than through libsystemd (READY,
WATCHDOG, STOPPING), including the abstract-namespace address; off
systemd every call is a no-op.
The unit gains `NotifyAccess=all` (rather than `Type=notify`, which
would fail the unit on the start timeout when no login is stored yet),
`WatchdogSec=120`, `Restart=always` — a hang is not a failing exit code
— and `MemoryHigh`/`MemoryMax` as a backstop against the 5.2 G growth
the hung run showed.
Remove the local proton-sdk path patch so the workspace builds from published crates, and document Fedora 44 build/runtime plus a local RPM spec.
