[aur-general] helixplayer disowned
by tardo 24 Jan '08

24 Jan '08

Due to the extremely complex nature of the build system and lack of time to figure out, the package has been disowned. If someone doesn't pick it up in a few days, I'll throw it back in unsupported.

[aur-general] Package Update: shorewall-perl
by Vardyr 24 Jan '08

24 Jan '08

As noted in the latest newsletter, the shorewall-perl package in AUR is orphaned and out-of-date. The package is currently in [community] so I cannot adopt it, but I have updated the PKGBUILD and attached it to this message. I'm not sure if this is the appropriate method for submitting this particular update, so please correct me if need be. Notes/critiques on the PKGBUILD are appreciated as well. -Vardyr

[aur-general] fortune-mod-cs update
by Dragonlord 23 Jan '08

23 Jan '08

Hi, I'd like to adopt the "fortune-mod-cs" package in AUR. The current maintainer doesn't care about my comments under the package, neither does he respond on my email. Can someone orphan the package, so that I can adopt it? Thanks D

[aur-general] Eclipse-Qt update
by Shaika-Dzari 23 Jan '08

23 Jan '08

Hi everyone. I sent an (gentle ^_^) email 4 days ago to eclipse-qt maintainer to ask him to update his package on Aur but I did not get any response. The last update was 24 June 2007. http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?do_Details=1&ID=11798&O=25&L=0&C=0&K=… In my email, I offered him to adopt his package if he did not have the time to maintain it. What can we do if he did not response? Could I adopt his package or should I simply post my new pkgbuild as a comment? Thank you for your help. -- Shaika-Dzari http://www.guidelinux.org http://code.google.com/p/animeshell

[aur-general] [REMOVAL] Discussion period for nesl247
by JJDaNiMoTh 22 Jan '08

22 Jan '08

Nesl, this officially marks the discussion period for your removal as a Trusted User. * You disappear ( and haven't vote ) since October; * Anyone know where you are ( any response on [who has seen him] thread) * Seems that you have resigned ( in chat.. lol ) For this paragraph of TU Bylaws There is one special case for removal, removal due to unwarranted and undeclared inactivity, for which standard voting procedure deviates from the above. This motion is also automatically triggered by repeated quorum offenses, as described in the Quorum subsection of this document. For this special case, SVP is followed with a discussion period of three days, a quorum of 66%, and a voting period of 5 days. I open the three day discussion period. -- JJDaNiMoTh - ArchLinux Trusted User

[aur-general] Trouble with package vim
by David Dupin 21 Jan '08

21 Jan '08

hi, I try to do an update this evening and when I launch pacman -Su I've got an error message : :: Starting full system upgrade... resolving dependencies... error: cannot resolve "vi>=7.1.228", a dependency of "vim" error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies) :: vim: requires vi>=7.1.228 Is there an update of vim without vi, or does the PKGBUILD is wrong with version number ? The latest vi version that I found is 7.1.156 with pacman. Regards.
