[aur-dev] Package blacklist for the AUR
by Lukas Fleischer 10 Feb '11

10 Feb '11

Hi! I recently started working on a package blacklist for the official AUR which can e.g. be used to prevent people from uploading packages in the official repos to [unsupported] (cf. FS#12902 [1]). Patches can be found in the "pkg-blacklist" branch of my working tree [2]. They currently include some code that adds a "PackageBlacklist" table and a hacky helper utility that can be used to update that table by sync'ing it with some binary repos. Constructive criticism and suggestions welcome! [1] https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/12902 [2] http://git.cryptocrack.de/aur.git/log/?h=pkg-blacklist

[aur-dev] Old, unapplied patches
by PyroPeter 09 Feb '11

09 Feb '11

Hello AUR developers, there is a great backlog of patches that work well, but are not applied. Among them are: * The right-to-left fixes for the hebrew translation * Making links in comments clickable * Deletion through the web interface It would be great if you could take some time to review and apply them.

[aur-dev] [PATCH] Remove fulltext index from "Packages".
by Lukas Fleischer 09 Feb '11

Drop unused fulltext indexes from "Packages" table (all search routines use "LIKE" patterns) which prevent the use of InnoDB.

[aur-dev] Question about sanitized data dumps
by elij 09 Feb '11

09 Feb '11

I have been [fooling around][1] with an aur-rpc reimplementation in ruby+redis with sphinx as the search engine. Loui [mentioned][2] he had been thinking about providing a dump of the existing database or something, to users who are interested in developing features and/or replacements. If so, and assuming the dump is sanitized in some way (remove real user email addresses, etc), I would certainly be interested. It would be nice to get some real data to play with. Is there any more information currently available on this? Thanks. [1]: https://github.com/cactus/spew-ruby [2]: http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-general/2011-January/013323.html

[aur-dev] Moving packages to Community
by Martti Kühne 07 Feb '11

07 Feb '11

Hello official and inofficial maintainers and AUR devs. Following the discussion in aur-general, I think some automation could solve many issues at once here. Justin Davis' community-blacklist patch is an approach in about the right direction.... although in relation to the discussion concerning these prevailing [more-official repo] adoption issues, it seems that it does not yet go far enough at the moment. There should be a redirection or at least a [we're-now-official] error page showing sort of "congratulations and sorry for the late notice" to the yet uninformed aur maintainer, if his package is not reachable any more because it was adopted in said [more-official repo] - along with this could be displayed the comments of the former package. As well, it could just become invisible in the package's search, and marked with a "I saw this" button in the former AUR maintainer's package list. When that button is clicked, the package would sink quietly into the official repo without anyone needing to complain. The only hurdle remaining is, that a package isn't up for deletion any more when it gets adopted to [more-official repo], because that could just be automated by the repo's backend maybe? I'm probably going to download the aur source inclusively Justin's approach to look into this a bit further. Even though my development skills aren't exactly in line with such a task, and if someone feels more confident, one may look into it h{im,er}self. I'd like to hear your comments on this well. cheers! mar77i

[aur-dev] AUR slow queries, stale database columns, etc.
by Dan McGee 04 Feb '11

04 Feb '11

LocationID, DummyPkg- are these used anymore on the Packages table? If not, getting rid of these would do wonders toward actually allowing MySQL to use indexes for some queries, which it has been unable to do for a long time. I've pasted some of the slow query log analysis below from stuff this month, it is pretty obvious where work should be focused. Killing these two fields and then replacing the SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS with a second count query should take care of nearly every slow query that currently happens. Also potentially worth attacking is the use of GREATEST(SubmittedTS,ModifiedTS) - since the wonderful MySQL has no functional indexes using this in a query as an order by clause results in full table scans. -Dan $ mysqldumpslow -s c sigurd-slow.log | head -n 100 Reading mysql slow query log from sigurd-slow.log Count: 3550 Time=2.08s (7390s) Lock=0.00s (3s) Rows=26.7 (94644), aur[aur]@localhost

[aur-dev] OpenSearch Description
by Cilyan Olowen 30 Jan '11

30 Jan '11

Hello everyone! It's been a long time that I wanted to do an OpenSearch shortcut to the AUR. I do an extensive use of search engines and keywords in my daily navigation and I was really missing one for AUR. So I wrote one, that was not so complex. :) I tested it using Firefox 3.6, so please test it a little bit more. To include the search engine in a web page for auto discovery, the HTML <head/> element should include a "profile" attribute that contains the value "http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearch/1.1/", and a <link/> tag such as <link rel="search" type="application/opensearchdescription+xml" href="http://path/to/aur-osd.xml" title="AUR Packages" /> (href must contain a complete uri, relative path doesn't seem to be supported) I set up a page so you can test it: http://www.cilyan.org/aurosd/aur-osd-link.html Once an appropriate keyword is set up in Ff "Manage search engines", finding a package on AUR is now as simple as typing "aur <package>" in the address bar! Best regards, Cilyan
