[aur-general] perl vs libperl
by H.Gökhan SARI 18 Jan '10

18 Jan '10

Hello everyone, There is a package 'libperl' in AUR[1]. I think this package is already provided in perl from [core]. In addition to this, it looks like AUR package is not maintained anymore. Shouldn't it be removed? [1]: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=26653 -- H.Gökhan SARI hsa2(a)difuzyon.net

[aur-general] My first package, esperanto locale for glibc
by Guillaume Brunerie 18 Jan '10

18 Jan '10

Hi, I did my first package, and wanted to post it here before submitting it to AUR. It is a package which adds the esperanto locale for glibc, and I didn’t found similar packages in ABS or AUR, so I don’t know if I use the PKGBUILD and .install files the good way. I have a few other questions : - The locale file doesn’t mention any license and makepkg say that there should be a licence= line in the PKGBUILD. What should I do? - I echo some text in the post_install function. Can I use UTF-8 encoded chars (like ’ or “”) or should I stick to 7-bit ASCII only ? Thank you for your comments :) Fractal ;)

Hi, Can a TU delete my(mupuf) packages called : ppasskeeper-kde ppasskeeper-kde-svn ppasskeeper-gnome ppasskeeper-gnome-svn Theses packages are not needed anymore as the upstream project has switched from Autoconf to CMake. Now, a single package generates all the plugins supported by the user. Please also delete qdevelop-svn, I don't use/maintain it anymore. Also, the project seems to be dead as http://qdevelop.org/ doesn't exist anymore. Thanks in advance, Martin aka MuPuF
