Hi DEVs/TUs,
I'm again on the cleanup of orphans packages in the [extra] repository; this
time with a small list[1].
The list is based on orphans packages needed by none.
I don't see very important packages there, but chromium, krusader, mc and
proftpd which maybe should be kept in [extra]; though they will probably find
their maintainers in [community].
As the last time (more than 7 months ago), please cross out the packages you
want to keep in [extra]. Adoption is not required, but it would be nice.
If you are a TU you can ask to maintain a package writing its name to the
"Candidate to [community]" list[2].
I invite all you maintainers to check the orphans packages on the Arch
website, many are maintained packages where the maintainer simply forgot to
adopt it.
Thanks

blok-git has been broken for some time upstream and seems unlikely to
change. At the time it was sort of a proof-of-concept and now it's
just source rotting.
Because of this, blok-git can/should be removed.
Thanks.

GPT fdisk is maintained by Tobias Powalowski (tpowa). Orphaning that
should have been a mistake since archboot installer uses gdisk
extensively. I maintain gptfdisk-git

Can somebody delete cutleaves
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=11371 I looked for another
homepage for it on softpedia, linuxappfinder, and also debian packages
and I can't find it. Nor does the download location exist anymore
Hello fellow AUR maintainers, I've come to ask for some of your wisdom
on a particular subject because, quite frankly, I'm completely unsure
of how to move forward. I'm attempting to put together a PKGBUILD for
a library (tsdl) but running in to trouble with the installation part.
I can run make no problem, everything proceeds as expected, however I
receive a permission error when running make install. The output is
shown below at the point which it fails.
http://pastebin.com/0xVvf1kN
Obviously this is going to fail unless makepkg -s is run as root,
which is highlighted as not being a good idea, so I'm basically
looking at how I could get around this, if at all. I'll admit that I'm
still getting to grips with this, having only put together two
PKGBUILDs from scratch before now, so I would appreciate any pointers
that could guide me in the right direction. Below are links to the
PKGBUILD I'm working on, as well as the Makefile for the library I
want to build respectively. I can see that there are a bunch of
operations going on in there which will result in more permission
denied errors, but if I'm thinking along the right lines, then these
could be installed using install -D -mXXX but again, I'm quite
inexperienced so I don't know if that is entirely true.
http://pastebin.com/xzVRt79dhttp://pastebin.com/sTN1j80f
Please also feel free to criticise the PKGBUILD in general; I've been
following what I've seen by other maintainers so far and trying to
stick to the guidelines laid out in the Wiki pages, so hopefully it's
all fine but if I have missed anything or done something stupid, I'd
like to know.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Kind regards,
Joel.

Thanks for getting jsvc into extra. This package is ready for deletion
as there are no packages that depend on it in aur and I've updated all
my personal packages that use it.

Hello,

Hi,
gqclient [1] seems to be duplicate of gq from community.
