[aur-general] Removal request: gnash-git
by Christoph Vigano 22 Jan '12

22 Jan '12

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=39699 (gnash-trunk-git) exists longer and has more votes than my adopted package https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=49364 (gnash-git). I gave the packager some hints on how to improve his PKGBUILD and therefore request removal of gnash-git. Greetings, Christoph Vigano (kritztopf)

[aur-general] Orphan Request: owx
by Ruslan Nabioullin 22 Jan '12

22 Jan '12

Hello, The AUR package "owx" [1] does not build. I have attempted to contact the maintainer in order to send a patch, but to no avail. Therefore, I am interested in maintaining this package. Thanks in advance, -Ruslan [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=42448 -------- Original Message -------- Subject: AUR owx package fix Date: Thu, 22 Dec 2011 18:20:57 -0500 From: Ruslan Nabioullin <rnabioullin(a)gmail.com> To: ur6lad(a)archlinux.org.ua Hello ur6lad, The PKGBUILD in your owx package downloads the daily SVN snapshot tarball, which changes daily (due to the name of the dir within it having the current date); thus, the checksums change daily, and it is impossible to build the package. I have created a patch (the email attachment) to PKGBUILD, which checks out the current (as of now) revision from SVN instead of downloading the snapshot (which would be less reliable). In addition, it fixes a few trivial errors (regarding Archlinux standards) and improves grammar. -kb1vyp -- Ruslan Nabioullin rnabioullin(a)gmail.com

[aur-general] Merge viewnior and viewnior-wp
by nado＠troglodyte.be 20 Jan '12

20 Jan '12

Hi, I took maintaining of viewnior-wp¹, because it’s a nice project and people would want set their wallpaper with viewnior. And they can’t with the package viewnior². But the only things who change is the gconf dep and a command added to the ./configure. So, why not merge these two packages : compile with wallpaper support, and set gconf as an opt dep ? By the way, if people under gnome could try to set a wallpaper with viewnior-wp, it could be helpful, I don’t use gnome :). 1: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=52709 2: https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/viewnior/ https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/i686/viewnior/ PS: I just noted I forgot to set gconf as a dep u_n -- Pazdera Corentin (Nado) Clé PGP/PGP key : http://troglodyte.be/pub/pubkey.pgp.asc

[aur-general] creating versioned packages from github
by Alper Kanat 20 Jan '12

20 Jan '12

Hey There, I want to package django-grappelli (version: 2.3.5) from github. I know that usually we clone the repository and therefore have the latest commit of the project for VCS PKGBUILD's. However in this case, I want to package the latest stable version. So I wrote; # Maintainer: Alper KANAT <alperkanat(a)raptiye.org> pkgname=django-grappelli pkgver=2.3.5 pkgrel=1 pkgdesc="A jazzy skin for the Django Admin-Interface" url="https://github.com/sehmaschine/django-grappelli" arch=('any') license=('GPL2') makedepends=("git" "python2" "python2-distribute") conflicts=() provides=() source=(https://github.com/sehmaschine/django-grappelli/tarball/2.3.5) md5sums=('36291a468ea10d50b33d782413cd436c') build() { cd ${srcdir} } For test purposes, I tried to build this PKGBUILD. The tarball is downloaded with the name 2.3.5 and successfully extracted into src/ folder but with a commit id (which makes it kind of random): $ ll src/ toplam 4 lrwxrwxrwx 1 tunix users 52 Oca 20 10:59 2.3.5 -> /home/tunix/packages/alps/django-grappelli-git/2.3.5 drwxr-xr-x 4 tunix users 4096 Eki 11 11:07 sehmaschine-django-grappelli-ea9441b So unless I do some bash magic like cd $srcdir/sehmaschine-django-grappelli-*, I won't be able to continue to build this package. What I wonder is if there are convenient ways to: - Download a tarball with a predefined name (in short: rename the output tarball) - Extract to predefined folder that we can specify in PKGBUILD? I read the man pages of PKGBUILD and makepkg and couldn't find such an information. --- Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
