[aur-general] Thunderbird on x64
by Enrico Scichilone 28 Jun '10

28 Jun '10

Hey list, does anybody else has a problem with Enigmail and Thunderbird on a x86_64 system? It is disabled for quite some time now, every time an update comes in, the error shows up: ""Enigmail" could not be installed, because it is not compatible with the thunderbird-build-type (Linxu_x86_64_gcc3)." It further says to contact the author, but I'm not quite sure if it isnt better to recompile Thunderbird with different options. Have fun! enni | telsh -- "Es ist sinnlos zu sagen: Wir tun unser Bestes. Es muß dir gelingen, das zu tun, was erforderlich ist." -- Winston Churchill

[aur-general] bin32 package dependencies.
by Peter Lewis 27 Jun '10

27 Jun '10

Hi folks, I have a quick question about dependencies for the bin32 version of a package I took over recently that I'm trying to tidy up (cedega). If the 32 bit binary is running on an x86_64 base and wants to use dbus through dbus-python, does it need lib32-dbus-core as well as dbus-python, or is the python bit a sufficient wrapper? (I don't have much experience with either dbus or python!) Thanks, Pete.

[aur-general] Deletion request: vimball
by Andres P 26 Jun '10

26 Jun '10

http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27730 Maintainer: djszapi * vimball is included in the default vim distribution, so what's the point of packaging it? It's just duplicating the job that the vim maintainer is doing. * It is packaged very badly. It installs files to /usr/share/vim/{plugin,autoload,doc} instead of using usr/share/vim/vimfiles. Maybe the maintainer realised that it conflicted with the identical files already included in the vim distribution. Although these one's are in vim72... Andres P
