[arch-general] what happened to nut (network-ups-tools)?
Guys, Where did nut go? I just checked and network-ups-tools is no longer available. Did it change names? I must have missed it. Thanks. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

It has been moved to the AUR [1] on 2010-09-21. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=5379

David, is it really that hard to do a few searches before asking?

No, I did search for the package on the web-site. I just didn't think to search AUR. I hadn't heard of packages getting kicked out of the package list before, so it never occurred to me to look in AUR. I found it, I'll follow up with Arjen on the nut-devel list. There is still something funky with the 2.4.3 package... I guess that's why it got the boot. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

I'd like to encourage you to perform several searches in different places before asking any question on the mailing list. Ideally, such trivial questions should never be asked on the list. There's a really handy search engine called google (http://google.com) that has phenomenal indexing and will actually help you search multiple sites at once (Arch Linux packages, the AUR, forums, mailing lists, upstream, etc) There may be other search engines as well, but that's the one I've found to be most useful. Cheers.

I appreciate your diplomacy Loui, and in the future, should another package disappear, I will search AUR to see if it ended up there. Cheers. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

It was moved to AUR since we had no components to really debug it, there was silence from userbase so it was decided to move it in order to give users of this package the possibility to debug and fix the problem by themselves, keeping it in [community] was no fine solution for that. https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/19351 http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-general/2010-September/010921.htm... -- Jabber: atsutane@freethoughts.de Blog: http://atsutane.freethoughts.de/ Key: 295AFBF4 FP: 39F8 80E5 0E49 A4D1 1341 E8F9 39E4 F17F 295A FBF4
