what is the reason we have x264 in extra half a year outdated and the one up-to-date in testing?

The new one hasn't been fully vetted yet, nor are we certain all the packages which link to it have been rebuilt. The reason the older stable one is in extra is because it's the older stable one which existing packages are built against. - P

Is this the same script that's up here? http://projects.archlinux.org/git/?p=devtools.git;a=blob;f=finddeps

If not, this is a nice feature, would you want to submit a patch to Jason, Dan, or I for that?

And can finddeps be added to the standard devtools package? I don't seem to have it in devtools 0.4-1, and was only vaguely anecdotally aware it existed, but it seems very useful. - P

old script was in cvs/arch/scripts, it should be same we now have in our git. modify it or add your improved version there and just push it into out devtools git and do a quick release.

Not everyone has commit rights to devtools. This is on purpose. I explicitly asked him to send a patch to one of us with commit rights, so it is fine. However, just to be nitpicky, a git-format-patch patch is always much nicer. Dan wrote up a nice guide for using git for pacman development: http://code.toofishes.net/git-guide.txt

it is, and here attached the patch to show dirs and depends/makedepends info.

Applied on my tree. TomK has some pending devtools patches (I think), and when I apply those, I will push to the projects tree, and release a new devtools. http://code.phraktured.net/?p=devtools.git;a=shortlog;h=working

Aw crap, I forgot I was supposed to patch makechrootpkg to copy makepkg.confinto the chroot before building. I'll send a patch for that this weekend.

Hah, it's in my @waiting label, I just haven't checked that in a bit, or I would have poked you about it

definitely +1 to add it to the devtools pkg

For the record, it's in devtools.git, but I don't think Jason made a new release yet. These scripts used to be in CVS at some point, but it makes much more sense to shove things like this into devtools so we have no excuse not to use them (I never knew where they were before... cvs-arch/scripts/ or something). I'll probably wait for Travis' and Tom's patches, and then prod Jason into making a new release (I can always do it, if you want me to)
