[aur-general] Notify by e-mail when PKGBUILD updated by maintainer?
by Amish 08 May '14

08 May '14

Hello, I went to through this AUR wiki page but did not get the answer. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR Is there a way to get notified when "Maintainer" updates new PKGBUILD? We already have way to notify for new comments on AUR package. So possibly it would be easy to extend that without much coding and send notification when new PKGBUILD is uploaded. New Comment => send e-mail to those who subscribed for comments New Update => send e-mail to those who voted AND subscribed for comments (or we can have a link called "Notify of new update") In my opinion getting notified for Update is more important than getting notified for comments. I see similar discussion on Google around 2012, but I really am surprised that not many have asked for this feature which I thought should be a basic need. :) PS: I am not looking for solution like pkgbuild-watch. I am looking for option on AUR itself. Thanks, Amish.

[aur-general] Orphan request: bacula
by Steven Haigh 08 May '14

08 May '14

Hi guys, I'm trying to take back the bacula AUR package to continue maintaining. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/bacula/ I am the submitter of the original AUR package: Submitter: CRCinAU I am listed as a maintainer in the PKGBUILD file: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ba/bacula/PKGBUILD # Maintainers: Steven Haigh <netwiz(a)crc.id.au> # goll <adrian.goll+aur[at]gmail> I have tried contacting goll to update the package, but have not heard a response for some time (and a few revisions). I hereby request that either the package be orphaned so I can pick it up and update it in future, or the maintainer be changed by to myself (ie the submitter). Thanks. -- Steven Haigh Email: netwiz(a)crc.id.au Web: http://www.crc.id.au Phone: (03) 9001 6090 - 0412 935 897 Fax: (03) 8338 0299

[aur-general] Retake control of AUR package?
by Steven Haigh 07 May '14

07 May '14

Hi guys, I dropped the bacula package for goll to take over - but it seems I've had much more free time to work on this and haven't been able to get him to update the package on AUR... I submitted the package in the first place. Is there a way to take it over again to keep it updated? -- Steven Haigh Email: netwiz(a)crc.id.au Web: http://www.crc.id.au Phone: (03) 9001 6090 - 0412 935 897 Fax: (03) 8338 0299

Please merge light-table into lighttable: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/lighttable/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/light-table/ The latter only exists because the former was out of date (and it seems nobody had contacted the previous mainteiner). Thanks, -- Hugo Osvaldo Barrera A: No, it doesn't make sense. Q: Should I include quotations *after* my reply?

[aur-general] Merge request: zfs to zfs-git
by Jesus Alvarez 07 May '14

07 May '14

Packages include: zfs => zfs-git zfs-utils => zfs-utils-git spl => spl-git spl-utils => spl-utils-git Reason: The original zfs packages could not keep up with the default linux kernel in Arch. ZFSonLinux is slow to make official releases and kernel API changes made basing the ZFS packages on the official release impossible without many patches from git. Users that want to continue to use official ZFS releases are encouraged to use the zfs-lts packages in AUR. Thanks, Jesus A. (demizer) Maintainer of the ZFS packages in AUR.
