[aur-general] [arch-dev-public] SCons major revision update
by Ray Rashif 04 Oct '10

04 Oct '10

Currently extra/scons-1.3.0-1 is marked out-of-date, which is probably due to the fact that since last month, version 2 has become the stable branch upstream. From http://www.scons.org: "14 June 2010 SCons production release 2.0.0.final.0 is now available from the download page at SourceForge. This is the production release for the 2.0 series. The 2.0 series drops support for all pre-2.4 versions of Python. See the ChangeLog for a complete list of changes in the release." Version 1 is still supported, as evidenced by the development branch updates: "26 June 2010 SCons release 1.3.0.d20100626 is now available from the download page at SourceForge. Fix the ability to append to default $*FLAGS values (which are implemented as CLVar instances) in a copied construction environment without affecting the original construction environment's value. See the ChangeLog for a complete list of changes in the release." The following are the packages that makedepend on scons: == extra == hydrogen ardour linuxdcpp == community == ffmpeg2theora oregano btanks kleansweep pingus dangerdeep fceux mypaint glob2 We can either update it to version 2 or move version 1 to a scons1 package. If there are no objections and build issues, I'll go ahead with the former, as it doesn't appear to be that popular to warrant both major branches in the repos. -- GPG/PGP ID: B42DDCAD

by Antonio Lucas 03 Oct '10

03 Oct '10

hi, wwt-svn[1] and wit-svn[2] are the same package. Both maintainers are active, and both packages get the latest version from svn of this package (even the packages containing a version on them). what do you guys do in this situations? <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=37504>[1] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=34239 [2] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=37504 abracos Antonio Lucas

We are down to: [core] - 1 package [extra] - 42 packages [community] - 29 packages Total: 72 packages That is great work by the TUs in the past week to do all those rebuilds in [community]. Can everyone please look at their dashboard and check which of their packages need rebuilt. I would like to move this to [testing]/[community-testing] in the next week or so. Allan

[aur-general] Dropping python-numeric
by Allan McRae 01 Oct '10

01 Oct '10

python-numeric is old, replaced by python-numpy and has had issues on x86_64 since python-2.5. These issues are far more noticeable in python-2.7 (as in python-numeric just does not work...), so I intend to drop this package from the repos. Two packages in [community] depend on it: freevo, gogh. When python-numeric gets dropped, so will these packages unless their maintainers (or someone else) do something about it. Both look like they can use numpy instead... Allan

[aur-general] State of LCD filtering packages?
by Try Again 30 Sep '10

30 Sep '10

As cairo 1.10 introduces LCD filtering (http://tinyurl.com/35vznmr), cairo-lcd and lib32-cairo-lcd from AUR are no longer needed. If they're removed, maybe we should add a 'replaces' entry in cairo and lib32-cairo. (request to arch-dev-general?) Besides, I wonder if libxft-lcd (in community) and its 32-bit counterpart in AUR are still useful, since I get LCD filtering with bare libxft, the only needed package from AUR was fontconfig-lcd. AUR URLs : - cairo-lcd: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=16459 - lib32-cairo-lcd: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=22090 - lib32-libxft-lcd: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=22091

[aur-general] orphan request: chocolate-doom
by Jason Reardon 30 Sep '10

30 Sep '10

I e-mailed the current maintainer yesterday, but the package hasn't been updated in almost a year-and-a-half, so I was hoping I could just get it orphaned so I can adopt. chocolate-doom: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=6183 -- Jason

[aur-general] Notify on package disown?
by Kaiting Chen 30 Sep '10

30 Sep '10

Hi is there any way to be notified when an AUR package is disowned? I'm trying to take a more active role in the community so I'm trying to adopt some packages. I've already gone through pretty much all the orphaned packages now and adopted the ones that I thought I could maintain well. It would be nice not to have to go through the whole orphan list every couple of days. Kaiting. -- Kiwis and Limes: http://kaitocracy.blogspot.com/

There have been some changes to [ytmp][1] which break the current PKGBUILD and the current maintainer has been [unavailable][2] for over three weeks now. Please orphan so someone can update it.

I think adobe-air-beta(http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=36919) needs to be deleted as the beta page states that adobe-air 2 is now released. Thanks
