Hello Devs and TUs,
as you might know some licenses require providing the sources somehow. While fixing the sourceballs script which implements this I discovered quit a lot of broken PKGBUILDs. We really need to fix those asap as this also breaks ABS and makes rebuilds a real pain (and impossible to automate in future).
I have rewritten the sourceballs script from scratch. It should be like over 9000 times faster now. For details see my commit message at http://projects.archlinux.org/dbscripts.git/commit/?id=4d16d294f338d5e90a92a... The script run every 8 hour and sends a list of added, removed and especially failed packages to arch-notifications. The dbscripts are in dryrun mode for a little while. Please have a look at those mails and let me know if there is something wrong. (Only look at the recent two mails; the others were test mails) Greetings, Pierre -- Pierre Schmitz, https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre
