[arch-dev-public] The docs/!docs thing again
by Dan McGee 09 Nov '09

09 Nov '09

What are we doing this month with docs? I ask because I was rather shocked to see this: dmcgee@kilkenny /usr/share/doc/gtkmm-2.4 $ pacman -Si gtkmm | grep Size Download Size : 14396.06 K Installed Size : 61660.00 K dmcgee@kilkenny /usr/share/doc/gtkmm-2.4 $ du -sh . 50M . That means ~80% of this package is stuff almost no-one is ever going to look at. That seems a bit overkill to me to include in our packages. -Dan

Hi guys, There was a major change in x264's API and FFmpeg and Mplayer were adapted the new changes. We need to updated them and get it working with the new changes.

[arch-dev-public] Status of slimserver
by Eric Bélanger 04 Nov '09

04 Nov '09

Hi, Is there anyone interested in maintaining slimserver? It's currently orphaned, out-of-date and doesn't even install (missing perl-compress-zlib depends FS#16490). If no one wants it, we could solve all these problems by moving it to AUR. Eric

by Allan McRae 02 Nov '09

Hi, Looking at the list of packages with uncompressed man pages [1], there are quire a few recently built packages... So this is just a reminder that we should all have zipman set in our makepkg.conf (including in our build chroots).
