[aur-general] Package rename
by F B 12 Jun '09

12 Jun '09

hi, Could someone rename gstreamer0.10-pitfdll-cvs in gstreamer0.10-pitfdll because this package is no longer in extra so there is no problems if it's renamed. However gstreamer0.10-pitfdll-cvs is not a cvs package so the name is not correct. Thank you in advance.

Try to patch out the according lines in the Makefile. If the directory connot be created at first runtime, create and remove the directory using an installfile. Regards Stefan

[aur-general] please detag for both architectures!
by Andrea Scarpino 11 Jun '09

11 Jun '09

TUs, when I was reading the Architecture Differences page, I saw there was not some packages for i686/x86_64. The problem was the tag. someone still does not know how to remove a package from community? I hope not. please remember: cvs tag -dl CURRENT cvs tag -dl CURRENT-64 cvs rm -fl thanks -- Andrea `BaSh` Scarpino Arch Linux Developer

[aur-general] doc dir
by nathan owe. 11 Jun '09

11 Jun '09

i used namcap and it is saying the package uses a non standard dir /usr/doc. this is probably wrong but i know how to make it tell where the mandir is, so i tried docdir={$pkgname}/usr/share/doc how can i fix this thanks
