I've just prepared pre-release packages of TeXLive 2009. They should be ready for release (upstream) within the next 4-8 weeks. Before that, I'd *really* love to benefit from arch=any. That would save considerable space on gerolde, as well as bandwidth, and would also speed up my task with building/uploading.
Any prospect of making the transition to the new dbscripts soon? We could use the testing repo first to check that everything runs as expected.
OK, for testing purposes I've checked out the dbscripts HEAD in /arch-new on gerolde. This has potential support for 'any' packages AND split packages
Please test them and let me know if there are any errors (I can fix them, or you can send me a patch)
I've created testing/os/any on gerolde (the others may error out because of the missing dir).
This should use symlinks so no one needs to update pacman.conf, correct?
Great, thanks for this Aaron. I'll upload a few "any" packages when I have a chance later tonight.
I will be happy to build packages using this stuff. Something on my todo list for now: - firefox-i18n is -any architecture - mesa will be splitup in libgl, mesa and *-dri for every driver This will ease packaging a lot. I don't have any motivation to change the current driver packaging at this moment, but I've been amazed by the stupidity I introduced when bundling 2D and 3D driver in one package. Some packages have a very high pkgrel already because of rebuilds or mesa updates.
