Re: [aur-general] Request name change/orphaing of drawterm
by Marshall Conover 26 Aug '13

26 Aug '13

Hello aur-general, I messaged the list about two weeks about the drawterm[1] package, saying that I had flagged the package out of date, uploaded a working package build to the page as a comment, and attempted to contact the owner of the package two weeks prior; I then asked that the package be orphaned/updated with my working package build. I was asked by speps to send an email to the package maintainer at his gmail address, as the domain for his other email address seems out of sorts; that address was actually the one I had originally sent it to, but I figured I"d give it more time and check IRC and speps suggested. I have still been unable to contact the prior maintainer. I have uploaded a new package, drawterm-hg[2], which (as far as I can tell) meets the criteria for a package on the AUR, and fixes the issues with the old drawterm package (which also used mercurial, but didn't have it in the name). As the new package seems to hit all the points needed, I believe the old drawterm should be deleted. Let me know if anything else is required! Thanks, Marshall Conover [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/drawterm/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/drawterm-hg/ <https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/drawterm/>-- Have a good day, Marshall Conover

[aur-general] Unused account on BBS and AUR web interface
by William Gathoye 25 Aug '13

25 Aug '13

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi guys, I would like to contribute to the AUR, but it appears the account 'wget' has already been registrered, but no one seems to currently use it. It looks like someone has asked for a password reset but hasn't clicked on the confirmation link from the email yet. Would it be possible for you to unlock this account and release this username for me? I'm experiencing the same issue with the BBS forum. I got 'Invalid username' as a response from the registration form. It would be nice if I could keep the same e-dentity for the ArchLinux community, as I'm using the same nickname for the communities where I'm getting involved in.

Re: [aur-general] request merge vapoursynth-git into vapoursynth

You could also keep both, and just specify the fragment in the one without -git in the name. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/VCS_PKGBUILD_Guidelines#VCS_sources Gtmanfred

So, since you are using the source straight from the git repository, we should be merging into the -git version? Also, there is no need to use echo in your pkgver, just run the command in the sub shell Gtmanfred -------- Original message -------- From: SpinFlo <sl1pkn07(a)gmail.com> Date: 08/25/2013 1:36 PM (GMT-06:00) To: "Discussion about the Arch User Repository (AUR)" <aur-general(a)archlinux.org> Subject: [aur-general] request merge vapoursynth-git into vapoursynth hi please merge https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vapoursynth-git<https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vapoursynth/> into https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vapoursynth/ vapursynth package use SVN (tag branch), this method not longer available. i change to GIT because this project don't use "zip" sources greetings

[aur-general] Disown request
by Iván Pulido 25 Aug '13

25 Aug '13

Hello, I'd like to request to disown the package dislin in AUR https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dislin/ . The package has been flagged out of date for over three months now and I already sent a fix/update for the PKGBUILD (with the username "mefistofeles") and the developer has not done anything. I'd like to adopt the package if possible. Thanks.

Can a TU delete https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-pylast/ ? python2-pylast is in [community], and python-pylast doesn't build a Python 3 version of the library. Thanks. - luolimao
