[aur-general] Changing email address for account on AUR
by Magnus Therning 14 Oct '10

14 Oct '10

I've just inherited the arch-haskell AUR account from Don, and yesterday I did two things: • Changed the email address associated with the account • Changed the password for the account I managed to fail with both: • I misspelt the email address, it should have been magnus+arch-haskell(a)therning.org • I failed in copy-pasting the correct password into the encrypted file where I keep credentials related to arch-haskell Any chance I can get any help sorting this out? /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe

[aur-general] Assigning Numbers to User and Group
by Steve Holmes 14 Oct '10

14 Oct '10

I've been working on an alternate PKGBUILD for speech dispatcher where it would run as a system wide service by default. In doing this, I created a user, speechd and a group, a11y so I could keep the speech environment secure through the unix domain socket. So far, it seems to be looking and working pretty good. Anyway, I don't know how numeric IDs are assigned to users and groups - especially those intended to be used by system daemons like mysql or postgreql. I have postgresql on my box and it does this same kind of thing with user and group creation. Do you know what values I should be using so I don't conflict with other potential packages? If you want an example of what I'm talking about, see the PKGBUILD script for postgreql it creates a user and group on the fly as needed. I plan to do the same with my project. Thanks for any help you can.

[aur-general] Please delete offlineimap-idle-git
by Ng Oon-Ee 14 Oct '10

14 Oct '10

Source no longer exists, it was merged into offlineimap back some time ago (and subsequently deleted for causing too many crashes). offlineimap itself is unfortunately unmaintained (but still working for now). http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=30592

[aur-general] Request for deletion: gmpc-plugins-0.20.0
by Cédric Girard 13 Oct '10

13 Oct '10

Hi, Could someone please delete the package gmpc-plugins-0.20.0 [1]? The package is a duplicate of gmpc-plugins and has not been updated since its creation despite missing dependencies. I think this package was first created because gmpc-plugins was out-of-date and not orphaned. I've contacted the previous maintainer since and taken over. Thanks.

[aur-general] ttf-ubuntu
by Simon Legner 13 Oct '10

13 Oct '10

Hi, the AUR package ttf-ubuntu-beta [1] is outdated and replaced by the packages mentioned below. I'd remove it. ttf-ubuntu-family-fonts [2] and ttf-ubuntu-font-family [3] provide the new ubuntu font. The former package uses a package name not complying with the source filename. Further on it uses strange version numbers and it is built using a source archive from font.ubuntu.com, but uses only the precompiled ttf-files. Therefore the download 2.3MB instead of 0.7MB seems unnecessary. Please consider deletion of ttf-ubuntu-beta [1] and ttf-ubuntu-family-fonts [2]. Regards, Simon [1] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=40402 [2] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=41204 [3] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=41465

This program is now located under "mesa-demos". fusion-icon complains about the missing glxinfo and won't start, so install "mesa-demos" manually at the moment. @fusion-icon maintainer: Should be added as a depend to the package or at least a note should be posted to that. -Daniel
