[aur-general] Aptana and ELF Files
by Nathan O 02 Sep '10

02 Sep '10

Currently I have adopted Aptana and updated it to a nicer PKGBUILD. Namcap gives me that ELF files are outside of a valid path. The way Aptana is packaged, it seems you would need to copy the source directory to another directory on the system, for example /opt/${pkgname}. Since you can't compile the program and if you seperate the files or directories, the program would not very likely run. What should I do? Ignore it, or put the files/directories in another location besides /opt?

Can tweetr http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27503 be deleted. The homepage of Tweet-r only lists the application for the IPhone and the download location no longer exists and some of the sites I tried to find an alternate download location, points to the dead-download location or homepage

[aur-general] KDE quickaccess plasmoid (and others)
by Peter Lewis 01 Sep '10

01 Sep '10

Hi, There are currently two packages for the KDE quickaccess plasmoid in the AUR. This one is for KDE 4.2 and gives a 404 error: kdemod-kdeplasma-quickaccess http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=19191 ...and can therefore be deleted IMO. The maintainer hasn't responded to a comment saying that it doesn't exist any more. This one works nicely: quickaccess-plasmoid http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=18854 and also has 101 votes. Should it go in community with the proper naming (i.e. kdeplasma-addons-quickaccess or somesuch)? In fact, there are actually quite a lot of plasmoids with a lot of votes: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?K=plasm&do_Search=Go&SB=v&SO=d Is there a policy on these, since most of them are installable via KDE's "get new stuff" interface? Cheers, Pete.
