[arch-dev-public] Welcome Aboard!

20 Jun '08

Hey guys, We discussed this a few and things went a little by the wayside due to me not having internet at home. So I'd like to take this opportunity to welcome Francois and Allan aboard as new fancy developers. I *think* I got everyone setup properly - it's been a while since I added a new dev. So here's a quick-and-dirty guide for you two: First and foremost, read this: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:HOWTO_Be_A_Packager Now, the next thing we need to do is start maintaining packages. Yay! Go to https://dev.archlinux.org/devel and use the password you should have gotten from me. This is the "dashboard" that contains a whole mess of info for maintainers. Todo lists for packages, out of date packages, and quicklinks for all the lists. When you're on the dev site (dev.archlinux.org) you can search for packages and an "adopt this package" button should show up. You'll have to go through and do this for the packages you want AND new packages you add. A note on adding packages: the web interface is updated at 30 minute intervals, so when you add a new package to the repo, it may take a bit to show up. Personal Info: Take a look at your entries here http://archlinux.org/developers/ If you want anything added/change, send me an email, and I'll change it for ya. I think I covered everything. If anyone else has something to add, go ahead. Cheers, and welcome guys!

I added the following policy entries to the developerwiki: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki#Policies Please take a look at them - they are in no way final, so let me know if something is wrong and I will fix it.

[arch-dev-public] check_archlinux output
by Aaron Griffin 20 Jun '08

20 Jun '08

Hey guys, I setup Scott's check_archlinux.py script, which checks overall repo integrity, to run daily on gerolde and email the list. Right now I set it up to run in 25 minutes for i686 and 30 minutes later for x86_64, just to test the output. I will move the times a little later, to make them more appropriate. I dunno how spammy this output will be, so this is more of a test than anything. Cheers, Aaron

[arch-dev-public] Dropping lots of packages
by Simo Leone 20 Jun '08

20 Jun '08

As countless people have noticed, my packages are pretty much unmaintained nowadays. After some thought, "package maintainer" isn't really a role I want to play anymore, so I'm dropping them. A full listing follows. Scoop up what you want. Some of these can (should) probably be moved to community too... -S ------------- bitlbee bzr darcs denyhosts django fakechroot festival festival-awb-arctic festival-don festival-kallpc16k festival-rablpc16k flite freepops gajim getmail ghc gtkterm habak happy jabberd libticables libticalcs libticonv libtifiles mod_hosts_access nph pil pycmail python-feedparser python-gtkglext python-mpdclient python-opengl setuptools sshfs swt tilp tomcat tor trayer xdelta xpp bitlbee-devel fvwm-crystal
