Devs and TUs, Fix your mess if you run "extrapkg" on a package in the community SVN or "communitypkg" on a package in the core/extra SVN. Also, always use these tools. There were a bunch of issues that could only be caused by manually using archrelease and doing it wrong. These can break ABS updating. I just fixed eight packages... Allan

Could you please list which packages you've fixed? So we know the dev/tu are doing it wrong. -- Arch Linux Developer http://www.archlinux.org http://www.archlinux.it

If you really want to know, look for my SVN commits in both repos for the last day with commit messages that are fairly obvious... Allan

But git does not show empty directories such as repo/x86_64 being delete... So here goes the packages: sparsehash python-pymongo lib32-llvm lib32-libffi go erlang-cl ginac libcompizconfig

Hi, I'm guilty of python-pymongo, go and erlang-cl. I was unaware of the need to use communitypkg instead of extrapkg for community packages, until now, and will start using communitypkg instead. -- Sincerely, Alexander Rødseth xyproto / TU

That doesn't make much sense to me. I mean, how have you been maintaining packages so far without using communitypkg?

Hi,

Sorry, I was a bit too quick there. I have been using communitypkg all along. I confused it with extra-i686-build and extra-x86_64-build, which I do use for community packages. I have not used extrapkg at all, only communitypkg. -- Sincerely, Alexander Rødseth xyproto / TU

That does make more sense; thanks for clearing that up. :)

Thanks for clearing that up yourself. :) But, now I'm confused, because I never used "extrapkg" at all on those three packages that I maintain. I don't see any indication anywhere in the changelog for those three that "extrapkg" have been used either (if that's where it would show up). Allan, what is your source for that "extrapkg" has been used on these three? python-pymongo go erlang-cl And what could be the reason that someone would run extrapkg on these? Thanks. -- Sincerely, Alexander Rødseth xyproto / TU

python-pymongo go erlang-cl

There were directories in the repos/ directory of SVN that should not be there. Dirrectories like extra-x86_64. Either than or directories name "x86_64" which implied using archrelease manually and wrong...

And what could be the reason that someone would run extrapkg on these?

Stupidity.

I must have created a directory named just "repos/x86_64" and "repos/i686" by accident. Sorry about that. In any case, "extrapkg" was not involved.

Stupidity.

"Stupidity" in response to creating two directories by mistake and svn commit messages like "fix shit". Are you 12? - Alexander

Can you never just acknowledge your mistakes and move on? This list is not to discuss proper use of the word "stupidity"; it's to get things forward. Do your linguistic nitpicking somewhere else. Thanks. -- Gaetan

Alexander, you might've run extrapkg by accident, or someone else could have. I have made this careless mistake a few times myself and it was stupid of me. Leave it. -- GPG/PGP ID: C0711BF1
