Hi, GRUB upstream has migrated from BZR to GIT http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/grub-devel/2013-10/msg00133.html . Therefore please merge grub-bzr [1] into grub-git [2]. Please note I was the original uplader/maintainer of grub-bzr but currently do not maintain it (maintained by buhman), but I have uploaded grub-git and plan to maintain it myself. Thanks in advance. [1]: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/grub-bzr/ [2]: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/grub-git/ With Best Regards, Keshav

please merge r-rgl [0] into r-cran-rgl [1], as the latter follows the common naming scheme and is up to date. about name scheming: there seem to be 2 groups of naming. r-<name> and r-cran-<name>. obviously i prefer the latter (try searching cran in aur). is it ok to update and rename to that naming scheme? thanks [0] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/r-rgl/ [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/r-cran-rgl/

[aur-general] Support for remote sums in PKGBUILDs
by Jerome Leclanche 22 Oct '13

22 Oct '13

Breaking away from an IRC convo from this morning; has support for remote sums been considered for pacman? It's currently possible to do this for .sig files (through the source array), but not available for simple sha/md5 hashes. This would let packagers do something like: source=("http://example.com/downloads/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.xz") sha1sums=("http://example.com/downloads/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.xz.sha1") (Of course, only for servers that generate a programmatically discoverable hash of some sort; but it's not actually uncommon) J.

[aur-general] Massive remove request
by Xorg 21 Oct '13

21 Oct '13

Hi. I want to remove many packages, if it is possible. First, the group lib32-gnustep-clang-svn: lib32-gnustep-base-clang-svn <https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/lib32-gnustep-base-clang-svn/> lib32-gnustep-corebase-clang-svn <https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/lib32-gnustep-corebase-clang-svn/> lib32-gnustep-gui-clang-svn <https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/lib32-gnustep-gui-clang-svn/> lib32-gnustep-libobjc2-clang-svn <https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/lib32-gnustep-libobjc2-clang-svn/> lib32-gnustep-make-clang-svn <https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/lib32-gnustep-make-clang-svn/> -> Because it was dependencies of darling-multilib-git <https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/darling-multilib-git/>. Before, darling-multilib-git depended of group gnustep-clang-svn & lib32-gnustep-clang-svn, and today, it depends only of gnustep-multilib-clang-svn (a new group which replaces both). Second, it is packages from The Northfield Project (an old fork of Wayland Project): northfield-git <https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/northfield-git/> (Wayland fork) norwood-git <https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/norwood-git/> (Weston fork) -> Because Scott Moreau (A.K.A. soreau), the main dev, has not yet commited since 7 months! This fork is died, his activity (https://github.com/soreau?tab=activity) shows he continues to work on Wayland (and not Northfield). So I don't known if we can build these packages, because nobody uses these on Arch. And last, it's about Psensor: psensor-catalyst <https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/psensor-catalyst/> -> Psensor (Catalyst) is Psensor, but with AMD proprietary driver support. Nobody uses it, I was alone, but I don't use more Catalyst. And I think it is bad to add the AMD Display Library (ADL) SDK in a package. Thanks in advance, X0rg.

[aur-general] Package merge request: vim-solarized-git and vim-colors-solarized-git
by Jason St. John 21 Oct '13

21 Oct '13

Hello, I'm not sure which is a better package name as there seems to be no dominating convention in the AUR, so I will leave that decision up to the TUs. Please do one of the following: --- merge vim-solarized-git into vim-colors-solarized-git --- have the package maintainer update vim-solarized-git and delete vim-colors-solarized-git I've CC'd the maintainer of both packages. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vim-solarized-git/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vim-colors-solarized-git/ Thanks
