[aur-general] [multilib] wine_gecko, bin32-wine_gecko
by Nicky726 29 Aug '10

29 Aug '10

Hello, as for the recent multilib eforts, I read the "Changes to AUR and community due to the multilib repository" post here and noticed many bin32-* packages switching to withhout-the-bin32 name and I wonder what to do with wine_gecko/bin32-wine_gecko I maintain in the AUR. Is there a guideline for bin32-* packages? Thanx, Nicky -- Don't it always seem to go That you don't know what you've got Till it's gone (Joni Mitchell)

[aur-general] libicq2000
by Nathan O 29 Aug '10

Should libicq2000 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=11337 be deleted, the package gives that it can't find libsigc++ though it is installed. I did some research and it is said that libicq2000 will not work with the libsigc++-2. I am thinking that you are not able to install libsigc++ and libsigc++-2. If it is to be deleted, package ickle http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=11336 should be deleted because it depends on libicq2000. Not sure what to do in this aspect. Thanks

[aur-general] cmake build
by Nathan O 28 Aug '10

28 Aug '10

I have encountered having the issues with software that uses cmake as it's build system. Usually I get the warnings stating that there is an Insecure RPATH and Package contains reference to $srcdir. I believe I figured out how to fix the RPATH issue, because a previous package had Rpath issues and I used sed to add a setting(can't remember what the setting is called at this second). The issue I have now is the Reference to $srcdir, for the current package and future reference, how do you fix it? Thanks

[aur-general] gtkd delete
by Nathan O 28 Aug '10

28 Aug '10

Also found another, gtkd http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=22002 The package won't compile, the last commit to the author's git repo is around 2 years ago. I tried using dsss like it said to use to build it and also renamed GNUmakefile to Makefile and ran make. If I used dsss, it would not install anything in the $pkgdir. If I tried running make, then it would give a compile error.

[aur-general] "bin32-skype" in [multilib] (as "skype")
by Malte Rabenseifner 28 Aug '10

28 Aug '10

CCing my announcement in the comments of bin32-skype (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=7914), please keep the package for at least 7 days to get people a chance to switch to [multilib]. "Since the announcement of the new [multilib] repository yesterday (http://www.archlinux.org/news/508/), I strongly encourage ALL users of bin32-skype to switch to the Skype package of that repository and report bugs and problems to the Arch bug tracker at http://bugs.archlinux.org (be sure that you have switched to "Community Packages"). I already have done testing of the package in [multilib] since it has been uploaded and I am bug free. Please help to find more bugs on different systems so that the change will go smoothly when this package will be removed from the AUR." -- Malte Rabenseifner, Germany mail(a)malte-rabenseifner.de -- Beneath knowing, understanding.
