[aur-general] Opinions
by Nathan O. 03 Jun '10

03 Jun '10

I was wanting to get people's opinion, anybody against packaging $pkgname.desktop and icon for packages or would it be better to just package the app. I tend to just package the app and that is it, but I thought I'd get others opinion on this.

[aur-general] Delete Request
by Nathan O. 03 Jun '10

Can somebody delete http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=8306 The homepage has changed and so has the pkgname, I am about to update it as an updated PKGBUILD which would create another package. Currently I am writing in the acpica developer listing to make sure that we'd be allowed to package it.

Seems that http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=14276 needs deleting, the homepage says it is no longer being maintained and sources don't exist anymore

This one is orphan: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=29716 and I believe it is the same as http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=24544

As much as I'd like to adopt it and upgrade it, I believe the following package is the same as the gpgme in the repos already: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=866

If I get the error while using makechrootpkg that makepkg: /dev/null permission denied, somebody said because it thinks a build is happening, how do I solve that error without restarting the computer? Thanks

[aur-general] Package disown request for haskell-platform
by Alexander Rødseth 01 Jun '10

Hi, haskell-platform hasn't been updated (submitted) since 31 Jul 2009. I e-mailed the maintainer almost two weeks ago and have not got any reply. A working PKGBUILD is posted among the comments. Thanks, Alexander Rødseth
