[aur-general] Massive orphan request II
by Frank Vanderham 08 Jul '13

I am hoping that by orphaning them, an active > maintainer may pick them up and fix/update them. That list is huge. I can certainly pick up a couple, but some of them look horribly outdated; is it an option to delete the ones that haven't been updated in - say - 12 months just to bring it down to a manageable number? It would be a waste of resources to spend time on a package that nobody is using anymore.

[aur-general] Merge request: broadcom-wl-dkms, wireless-bcm43142-dkms, broadcom-wl6-dkms
by Frank Vanderham 08 Jul '13

08 Jul '13

I understand, no problem! I adopted broadcom-wl-dkms. Would the people that had notifications on broadcom-wl-dkms (the one that was accidentally deleted) get those notifications again going forward? Otherwise I'll post something on the forums. Thanks!

Sorry I must had my brain messed up... Restored the latest version of broadcom-wl-dkms and merged the other into it. Please go ahead and adopt the "new" package, thanks and sorry again!

Folks, Sorry, as I mentioned in the original request, I needed everything merged into broadcom-wl-dkms, not broadcom-wl6-dkms, which was one of the packages to be deleted. Is there a way that this can still be done? Or should I create a new package called broadcom-wl-dkms and re-merge? Packages in question: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/broadcom-wl6-dkms/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/broadcom-wl-dkms/ (had the latest PKGBUILD but doesn't exist anymore, should have been the "final" one) Thanks! ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Felix Yan <felixonmars(a)gmail.com> To: "Discussion about the Arch User Repository (AUR)" < aur-general(a)archlinux.org> Cc: Date: Mon, 08 Jul 2013 12:34:23 +0800 Subject: Re: [aur-general] Merge request: broadcom-wl-dkms, wireless-bcm43142-dkms, broadcom-wl6-dkms On Sunday, July 07, 2013 22:26:20 Frank Vanderham wrote: > Just a friendly reminder of this request I made a couple of days ago: > please let me know if there is info missing or if there is a problem: > > > On Fri, Jul 5, 2013 at 11:35 AM, Frank Vanderham <twelve.eighty(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > > To clean up the naming and confusion around the various DKMS Broadcom > > drivers out on AUR, please perform the following: > > > > * merge the comments, history, etc. from wireless-bcm43142-dkms into > > broadcom-wl-dkms > > * merge the comments, history from broadcom-wl6-dkms into broadcom-wl-dkms > > > > This means that those three packages should now be just one: > > broadcom-wl-dkms.

[aur-general] Disown request: massif-visualizer
by Christian Bielert 08 Jul '13

08 Jul '13

massif-visualizer [1] hasn't been updated in 18 months, is broken and has a (working) suggestion to fix it, equally old, sitting there. I've sent a mail to the current maintainer over 2 weeks ago and received no response. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/massif-visualizer/

by Edoardo Maria Elidoro 08 Jul '13

08 Jul '13

Hi everyone, I already contacted the actual maintainer of gtk-themes-finery[1] and he's ok to merge the package into this one[2] with a better name and the dependencies fixed.
