[aur-general] TU Application: Xyne
by xyne 20 Mar '09

20 Mar '09

Hi all, I'd like to apply to become a TU. Allan has agreed to be my sponsor. My reasons for wanting to become a TU are the following: I want to help out, improve Arch in general and give back to the distro (the typical clichéd response, but true nonetheless). I intend to eventually maintain some of my own packages in the community repo (not only them though). I hope to learn more about what goes on behind the scenes. I want to participate in decisions that affect Arch. Everyone keeps telling me to become a TU. I heard TUs get free tacos. As for packaging experience, I currently maintain 24 packages in the AUR (under the same name) and I host a public repo on my site (http://xyne.archlinux.ca/repositories). I've also played around with a few local repos (e.g. metapax pkgs, local AUR binary repos, customized ABS packages) and have written some tools that deal with pkg and repo creation and maintenance (makerepo, metapax, pacpan). I'll admit that many of the PKGBUILDs for my own tools are trivial but some of the ones I maintain in the AUR aren't. I've also managed to work my way through the (g)vi(m) PKGBUILDs and scripts to get them to build with the latest patch level at the time :P . Overall, I still consider myself somewhat new to Linux and I haven't yet had to patch anything myself or deal with really complicated build errors, but I'm sure that I'll learn how to handle such issues as I'm learning the rest of it. I tend to know my own limits and generally don't dive into things that I can't handle, so you don't have to worry about me borking anything. For those of you who don't know me, I'm quite active on the forum so you can probably get a general idea of who I am from my posts there. Thanks for considering this application. /Xyne

[aur-general] Request: Delete/rename mislabeled "rudl" package
by Henning Bekel 18 Mar '09

18 Mar '09

I maintain an package called "rudl" in unsupported. It provides ruby bindings to SDL, and it's a nice (more ruby-ish) alternative to ruby-sdl. I simply called it "rudl" back then, but now I think it should be renamed to "ruby-rudl", following the naming scheme other ruby packages use. If you agree, please remove it, and I'll upload a properly named package. Henning

[aur-general] Request: Delete duplicate package libdb-ruby
by Sven-Hendrik Haase 17 Mar '09

17 Mar '09

ruby-bdb and libdb-ruby are effectively the same. I suggest the removal of libdb-ruby because it got there two years later and its PKGBUILD is a little off. Also, 'libdb' is Debian style and I don't think we want that here :P

Re: [aur-general] Delete duplicate xampp package
by José Valecillos 17 Mar '09

I've already fixed x86_64 support. Ok, In this case after Jeff orphan her package I'll take it, therefore please delete xampp-linux. But, what happen with the 45 votes of xampp-linux?. You must take into account that. -- José Valecillos

[aur-general] gnash removed from aur
by Paride Legovini 16 Mar '09

16 Mar '09

I was willing to maintain a package in aur for Gnash, the GNU SWF player. I published it today, but it has been removed without any warning. Can I have en explanation for this? I know the same package is already in extra/, but it's orphan and outdated. p.

[aur-general] Delete duplicate xampp package
by Sven-Hendrik Haase 16 Mar '09

16 Mar '09

Currently, there are two packages for xampp that do the same thing: xampp-linux, which was there two years earlier and just xampp. The xampp PKGBUILD is pretty much the xampp-linux PKGBUILD with added stuff for taking care of x86_64 because the regular xampp-linux package will not work properly with x86_64. Therefore, this situation is a little complicated. I propose the deletion of the xampp package and notification of the xampp-linux package maintainer in order to make the package x86_64 compatible.

[aur-general] How about hashtags in package description?
by Vitaliy Berdinskikh 15 Mar '09

15 Mar '09

We have the limited category list. Sometimes I need accurate description when package can use. How about to use hashtags like #hamradio etc. -- Sincerely yours, Vitaliy Berdinskikh (Виталий Бердинских)
