[arch-projects] [AUR2] AUR2 and AUR2-BR integration
by Xilon 22 Sep '07

22 Sep '07

Yesterday Thralas notified me that the AUR2-BR ( http://aur2.archlinux-br.org/ ) repo is available at http://projetos.archlinux-br.org/thaur/ . They have done a lot of work, and I mean a LOT... It may be very close to finishing. Having skimmed over the code it looks like it's mostly just an AUR port to Django, which is good, but it could be better. Before we started developing AUR2 we were designing it for a couple of days, and discussing the best options for X, Y and Z. I think the current ERD ( http://ius.student.utwente.nl/aur/aur.png ) is very good and suits most, if not all, of our needs. I'm still critically thinking about that ERD and general design of AUR2 to make it flexible and generally better than AUR. We have a few ideas that would make AUR really awesome, like using an SCM backend, being able to edit PKGBUILDs on the fly from AUR, etc. I think we would achieve better results if we continued our work on AUR2 and simply ported AUR2-BR code, while critically thinking about each piece of code. This would result in a better design, more flexibility, better/more efficient code and possibly less redundant if we use/expand on namcap for PKGBUILD checking. Now if I were Lincoln or Douglas I'd be pissed off for someone suggesting this :P. So I'd like some discussion, especially from them.

Just a notice. I rebased my readytopull branch from paul's upstream, so it should be much easier for paul to pull changes from me... but it might cause issues for anybody that is currently tracking my repos. You will probably just need to do a `git fetch --force` to squelch the complaining git will probably do. :)

[arch-projects] Aur theming update.
by eliott 22 Sep '07

22 Sep '07

I have started working on getting the aur to look like the rest of the arch sites. So far I have the header looking good. Not sure how useful the patches I have been sending are. I don't know if binary images that show up in my most recent patch, work with the patch utility or not..so instead of fiddling with it, I am just setting up a git repo for my changes. The gitweb is here: http://projects.archlinux.org/git/?p=aur-eliott.git;a=summary You can clone from here: http://projects.archlinux.org/git/aur-eliott.git My 'testing' branch has the first stab at the header changes...it has effected the body of the site a bit negatively, so there needs to be some fixing there.

[arch-projects] More work in the aur-eliott branch.

I have done more work in my testing aur brach. I am refactoring some of the display and theme code, from an output layout standpoint (not functionally). Mostly removing tables, using divs, and cleaning up the presentation. It is still very rough..and I am poking at the stylesheets quite a bit. Here is a 'in progress' screenshot. http://archlinux.org/~eliott/zomgstuff/aur_packages_page-step2.png

Small fixes for the web readme file. Paul. I am using the git format-patch thinger. Let me know if it is readable and useful for you. Alternately, I can just send you diff output from the latest trunk.

[arch-projects] AUR 2 git repository
by Joerie de Gram 18 Sep '07

Hi, As some of you might know Xilon and I have started work on a AUR rewrite using python/django. Currently we're syncing up our repositories [1][2] every once in a while, as we lack an 'upstream' repository which we can push to. Would there be any possibility of having an 'upstream' git repository hosted at projects.archlinux.org? Or should we look for alternatives such as archlinux-projects.org by Georg (great initiative!)?
