[aur-general] gspcav1-fbcondecor package installation errors
by Aaron Lane 24 Jul '09

Hoy there, gang. I am trying to install the gspcav1-fbcondecor package so that I can use my Creative NX web cam, but I am receiving installation errors that I do not know how to tackle (I am not very knowledgable yet on packages and installation problems in Linux). Here is the PKGBUILD file that I am using; I had to edit it because the maintainer of this package has not yet changed the dependencies to kernel26-fbcondecor 2.6.30.1-1: # $Id: PKGBUILD,v 1.3 2008/01/26 15:48:21 tpowa Exp $ # Maintainer: Varun Acharya <varun(a)archlinux.org> # Contributor: Giovanni Scafora <linuxmania(a)gmail.com> # Contributor: Daniel Isenmann <daniel.isenmann(a)gmx.de> # # This PKGBUILD is based on the PKGBUILD of gspcav1 in ABS. # The _kernver was changed to make use of gspca1 drivers for kernel26-fbcondecor. # Contributor: Ning Bao <phabulosa(a)gmail.com> _kernver=2.6.30-fbcondecor pkgname=gspcav1-fbcondecor pkgver=1.00.20 pkgrel=3 pkgdesc="gspcav1 for kernel26-fbcondecor - A kernel module with support to 260 USB webcams" arch=('i686' 'x86_64') url="http://mxhaard.free.fr" license=('GPL2') depends=('kernel26-fbcondecor>=2.6.30' 'kernel26-fbcondecor<=2.6.31') install=gspcav1.install source=(http://mxhaard.free.fr/spca50x/Download/gspcav1-20071224.tar.gz) md5sums=('14853ba1f4edc1e685039fca56e5ebf2') build() { cd $startdir/src/gspcav1-20071224 sed -i -e "s/KERNEL_VERSION = .*/KERNEL_VERSION = ${_kernver}/" Makefile make || return 1 #Install kernel module install -D -m644 gspca.ko $startdir/pkg/lib/modules/$_kernver/kernel/drivers/media/video/usbvideo/gspca.ko sed -i -e "s/KERNEL_VERSION='.*'/KERNEL_VERSION='${_kernver}'/" $startdir/*.install } Here is the gspcav1.install file that I am using; again, I have edited it for dependencies: # arg 1: the new package version post_install() { KERNEL_VERSION='2.6.30-fbcondecor' /sbin/depmod -ae -v $KERNEL_VERSION > /dev/null 2>&1 } # arg 1: the new package version # arg 2: the old package version post_upgrade() { KERNEL_VERSION='2.6.30-fbcondecor' /sbin/depmod -ae -v $KERNEL_VERSION > /dev/null 2>&1 } # arg 1: the old package version pre_remove() { /sbin/rmmod gspca > /dev/null 2>&1 } # arg 1: the old package version post_remove() { KERNEL_VERSION='2.6.30-fbcondecor' /sbin/depmod -ae -v $KERNEL_VERSION > /dev/null 2>&1 } op=$1 shift $op $* Here is the log of my attempted installation: [aaron@betabeta gspcav1-fbcondecor]$ makepkg -cs ==> Making package: gspcav1-fbcondecor 1.00.20-3 i686 (Wed Jul 8 12:06:56 EDT 2009) ==> Checking Runtime Dependencies... ==> Checking Buildtime Dependencies... ==> Retrieving Sources... -> Found gspcav1-20071224.tar.gz in build dir ==> Validating source files with md5sums... gspcav1-20071224.tar.gz ...

[aur-general] List of 1108 possible arch=('any') packages
by Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi 22 Jul '09

Hello, This is a list [#1] of possible packages that can be arch=('any') in a future. The pkgs don't have any ELF[*] (x86-32 or x86-64) [executables, shared objects, relocatables] or AR archives (static libs). [core] -> 21 pkgs (~10M p/arch) [extra] -> 417 pkgs (~1.5G p/arch) [community] -> 670 pkgs (~3G p/arch) Should be reviewed, I hope this can help :) [#1] http://archlinux.djgera.com.ar/misc/any.txt [*] Few exceptions, for example community/fpc-src -- Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi ( djgera ) http://www.djgera.com.ar KeyID: 0x1B8C330D Key fingerprint = 0CAA D5D4 CD85 4434 A219 76ED 39AB 221B 1B8C 330D ____________________________________________________________________________________ ¡Viví la mejor experiencia en la web!

[aur-general] java package has build time deps
by svoufff 21 Jul '09

21 Jul '09

Hi, i'm working on a PKGBUILD for jsampler-cvs.This is a java frontend to Linuxsampler. This app requires 4 more java libraries to be present at build time in a subdir of the source.These are jlscp.jar, juife.jar, swingx.jar and substance.jar.All of these are only needed for build, I ran the program without them installed just to check. What would be the best way to do ? put them in the makedepends array : that means packaging 4 more libs to AUR, forces the user to install these libraries on system, absolutely unneeded for running jsampler, since they are somewhat integrated to jsampler.jar during build.And it would still require to copy them from their install path to the source/subdir of jsampler to be able to build... or put them in the sources array and copy them the source/subdir before building, so they are just used for build and not installed.That works but is it the "good" way ? or something else ?

[aur-general] Protection of guidelines.
by Eric Bélanger 21 Jul '09

21 Jul '09

Hi, To fix the issue posted here in FS#15611, I've protected the 3 guidelines linkedn on the AUR home page: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR_User_Guidelines http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR_Trusted_User_Guidelines http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Packaging_Standards Therefore, regular users can no longer edit them. Only wiki sysop/admin can do that now. Most of the devs have these privileges so just post the wanted change here and someone will do them. These pages don't change a lot except maybe Arch_Packaging_Standards (I could unprotect it if it's wanted) so it shouldn't be any problem. Another possibility could be to give to some TU wiki sysop privileges. Eric

Could you please remove the pkg "wine64" [1] it sounds more like a 64bit version than like a 32bit build for x86_64. I will reupload it as "bin32-wine-build". Thanks! [1] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=28598 --- Jakob "flocke" Nixdorf "Never say forever 'cause forever´s a lie!"

They are not. Any packages are not supported yet. We are testing support for any packages in addition to split packages on the main arch server.
