[aur-general] disowning a couple of packages
by Thomas Dziedzic 12 Jan '14

12 Jan '14

Hi, I'm disowning sage-mathematics, sage-mathematics-spkgs(optdepends for sage-mathematics), fityk, and xylib(dependency for fityk). I will move them to the aur in a week if no TU adopts them in community. If you plan on adopting sage-mathematics, you should know that it is currently unbuildable on archlinux, and some other newer distros due to how it is built. It is currently out of date, and you wont be able to update it without fixing this. http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/10572 (13 month old bug without recent comments) http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/11391 (9 month old bug I filed without a sign of activity) If you plan on adopting fityk, note that it needs a development version of wxwidgets which I statically build in the same PKGBUILD. Cheers.

[aur-general] Naming convention for Python 2 and 3 apps
by Allen Li 16 Dec '12

16 Dec '12

Hi everybody, I know that the naming convention for python libraries is python(2)-*, but do we have a convention for python applications installed for different python versions? The package in question is flake8, which can be installed for both Python 2 and 3. Allen Li

[aur-general] [Package Removal Request]
by Diogo Bento 01 Dec '12

01 Dec '12

Greetings, I'd like to ask for the removal of the following AUR packages: lxinput-gtk3: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/lxinput-gtk3/lxtask-gtk3: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/lxtask-gtk3/lxterminal-gtk3: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/lxterminal-gtk3/ Thank you for your attention,D.B. (3V0LU710N) p.s.: [Offtopic] Maybe this is not the right place to ask this, but I'd like to suggest the compilation of lxde packages with gtk3 instead of gtk2... =) [most of them seem to work properly, with the exception of lxterminal, which gives a bug when tabs are closed].

[aur-general] Removal request: cross-arm-none-eabi-gcc-base and cross-arm-none-eabi-newlib
by Martin Schmölzer 29 Nov '12

29 Nov '12

Hi! I recently adopted and updated the following orphaned packages: - cross-arm-none-eabi-binutils - cross-arm-none-eabi-gcc - cross-arm-none-eabi-gdb Two packages from the cross-arm-none-eabi-* series remain as orphans in the AUR: - cross-arm-none-eabi-gcc-base - cross-arm-none-eabi-newlib In the past, the cross-arm-none-eabi-gcc-base package was used to bootstrap the GCC compiler for the ARM EABI target, which is no longer needed [1]. The cross-arm-none-eabi-newlib package was then built using the cross-arm-none-eabi-gcc-base package, which is no longer needed because my PKGBUILD does a combined source tree build, where the compilation of newlib is integrated with the GCC autotools build. Please remove the no longer needed cross-arm-none-eabi-gcc-base and cross-arm-none-eabi-newlib packages. Thanks! [1] http://gcc.gnu.org/install/build.html - section "Building a cross compiler" Best regards, Martin Schmölzer
