[aur-general] Should we still include VCS packages in makedepends?
by Marcel Korpel 30 Dec '14

30 Dec '14

Hi, As of pacman 4.2.0 there exist some variables in makepkg.conf that read: #-- The the package required by makepkg to download VCS sources # Format: 'protocol::package' VCSCLIENTS=('bzr::bzr' 'git::git' 'hg::mercurial' 'svn::subversion') It looks like pacman is able to see which package it needs to retrieve a specific VCS source. Do we still need to include those in makedepends? Regards, Marcel

[aur-general] Tool to move packages to aur-dev
by Simon Kohlmeyer 30 Dec '14

30 Dec '14

Hi everyone, I just hacked together a small ruby gem[1] that scrapes your aur packagelist, creates the corresponding git repositories on aur-dev and imports their .SRCINFO and PKGBUILD. As always, consider it experimental and take a peek at the code, comments and corrections are appreciated. I hope this can save you some time and make the transition easier. Cheers, Simon [1] https://github.com/voidus/aur2git

Thanks! Congrats! I think you should apply on aur-general, not on this list. And if I was a TU, I would definitely vote for you, you've been of great help in the past! Kind regards, Marcel

Hi, I'd like the removal of two freshly uploaded packages. I've uploaded them without much testing (shame on me) and they now unnecessarily conflict. python-bidi: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-bidi/ python2-bidi: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python2-bidi/ Thanks
