[aur-general] AUR and patches
by Felix 10 Jul '09

10 Jul '09

Hi all, what is the policy or recommendation for applying patches to upstream sources? For a standard package that is listed as such (ie. not a patched version) then I assume the only patches applied are those to make it compile and install. If I were to add some patches that enhanced the functionality then I would create a new package in AUR that stated that. Does that sound reasonable? -felix -- email: felix(at)seconddrawer.com.au web: http://seconddrawer.com.au/ gpg: E6FC 5BC6 268D B874 E546 8F6F A2BB 220B D5F6 92E3

[aur-general] removal request
by Lukáš Jirkovský 10 Jul '09

10 Jul '09

Hello, can some TU remove packages animorph [1] and mhgui [2]? Both of them used to be a dependency of makehuman (and it's probably the only application which used them because they were made for specific needs of makehuman) but current version of makehuman no longer needs them. thanks, Lukas [1] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=8385 [2] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=8386

[aur-general] About AUR Translation zh_CN
by Mod_Gao 10 Jul '09

10 Jul '09

have a look: http://projects.archlinux.org/git/?p=aur.git;a=blob;f=web/lang/zh_CN.po;h=8… The zh_CN translation is only 35% completed(human calculation;), and i see very much bad translation such as: $_t["Could not re-tar"] = "将不在重新大包"; ## two wrong word, author even don't want to correct it after type this string. $_t["You must be logged in before you can adopt packages."] = "在你怀疑前你必须先登录"; $_t["The selected packages have been disowned."] = "选中的包已经被否决"; $_t["You did not select any packages to adopt."] = "你没有选择可疑的包"; $_t["The selected packages have been adopted."] = "选择的包已经被怀疑"; the above four lines and maybe more, all are wrong translation. and many string are not good translated enough, i'd say at least 30% out of the translated 35%. and the only changes submitted is: 2009-04-13 Supern Lee Add more Chinese translations. 2009-04-13 Supern Lee Add Chinese translations. 3 months ago, hmm. some of us are discussing about this things at #ubuntu-cn, we said the translator just a i... no zh_CN translation is not good or not bad, but with bad translation is really bad! so before correct this, TO SUSPEND THIS TRANSLATION? actually i made a complete translation at 2008 but i am not submitted, i want to do a LAMP and do some tests for my translation but i got failures on LAMP, so i disappointed......and i could not found it today(maybe on my DVD+R). ---------------- Before beginning, please make sure that git and python are installed. Also, please do not translate if you are unwilling to maintain or find someone to maintain the translation. This is due to the fact that the AUR is a rapidly evolving project and there are constantly new strings to be translated appearing. If the translations get too out of sync with the released versions, there will be too many untranslated strings for the translation to be usable, and it will have to be removed or disabled. --from http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR_Translation

[aur-general] value of "charity" package ownership?
by Ray Kohler 09 Jul '09

09 Jul '09

For a while now, I've been adopting packages that I'm not actually interested in, and in some cases don't really even understand, just because I have the time to help out and want to be a nice guy. I'm having second thoughts about the wisdom of this. Should I orphan these packages, on the off-chance that somebody more appropriate wants to own them? Is a mediocre maintainer better than no maintainer?

[aur-general] Inactive
by Andrea Scarpino 09 Jul '09

09 Jul '09

Hi all, I will be inactive starting from tonight to 26th July. At 9pm (GMT+1) I will start my inter-rail[1] with 2 friends; we will visit London, Amsterdam, Berlin and Prague. So this means I will not able to use my laptop and maybe I will not check my mails too. I hope to improve my English with this experience. Kde 4.3 should be released at the end of the month, so I hope to be here for that. Everyone can update my packages and please solve critical bugs related to my packages, if there will be. Thanks in advance. Have a good day. Best regards [1] http://www.interrailnet.com/ -- Andrea `bash` Scarpino Arch Linux Developer

[aur-general] Where has lib32-libx11 gone?
by ProfessorTomoe 08 Jul '09

08 Jul '09

Is there a reason that the lib32-libx11 package has disappeared? I can't find it on AUR (or on ABS), and it's a dependency for building the bin32-wine-suse package that I maintain.

[aur-general] introduction and questions
by jezra 08 Jul '09

08 Jul '09

Hello, my name is Jezra and I'm interested in making a PKGBUILD for a commandline audio player that I wrote in Vala. Actually, I've already written a PKGBUILD but, through reading the AUR documentation, it was advised that I first post the PKGBUILD to the mailing list because this is my first PKGBUILD. I have attached the PKGBUILD source and I would appreciate feedback. I also have a question regarding making packages for AUR. The name of my application is 'sap' and a search of the AUR turns up another application named sap. What is the best way to resolve the issue of name collision for packages in AUR? jezra

[aur-general] Package removal
by Dan Vratil 08 Jul '09

08 Jul '09

Hi, I suggest removing php-qt [1]. I adopted it as very outdated package (ver 0.1) and tried to rebuild the new version (0.9), but according to developers, the version 0.9 has problems with building against the new Qt (found on mailinglists from November 2008) and they recommend using sources from SVN. Therefore I created package php-qt-svn which builds against the latest software without problems.
