[aur-general] TU Inactivity angvp
by Angel Velásquez 30 Oct '08

30 Oct '08

Hi I'm sad/ashamed to say this, but since a heavy workload and some issues coming into my life,... I've to go inactive at least by a month (or I hope a couple of weeks), I am planning to finish all my pending work (in job), then return and re-organize my time. I hope you all can maintain my packages, grab them if you want, or just update them. Thanks. P.S: I will be online, just busy.. so anything you need, do me a ping, so i will answer (not as quickly as always of course) -- Angel Velásquez angvp @ irc.freenode.net Linux Counter: #359909 Arch Linux Trusted User

Re: [aur-general] [request]: LXR -- Linux Cross Reference
by zhengyi 30 Oct '08

Hi, I must tell you that there is a "small" bug in the lxr, if you choose mysql as the DB. mysql taken "release" as it's keyword( I guess ), so in the file initdb-mysql, you will encounter syntax error. Because that file use 'release' as a table column. I've tried to rename it to something else, but the perl scripts of LXR complain for sql syntax error. If you familiar with perl+mysql, I guess that will not take you much time. Good luck! By the way: I suggest you to take a small scale source code package as the testing object. If you follow some docs from google, it will parse the Linux kernel code. It is a time-consuming works!

[aur-general] [request]: LXR -- Linux Cross Reference
by zhengyi 30 Oct '08

Hi, LXR seems a good tool to review software code. I tried to setup it, but failed. It needs apache mysql perl swish and so on. I'm not an expert of Mysql, and encounter something wrong while config it. There seems no aur package of it. Who can creat an AUR ? Thanks!

[aur-general] Duplicate packages in AUR
by Ghost1227 30 Oct '08

30 Oct '08

It was recently pointed out in #archlinux that there is a package in AUR which is duplicated and neither copy works, both trying to pull the source from mediafire. plasmoid-weather 0.4-1 <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=19532> posted by Petr_Bambusek and weather-plasmoid 0.4-1 <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=18819> posted by Diestelhenne Both maintainers have been notified of this issue, but perhaps something should be done about this duplicity?

[aur-general] abs and CURRENT
by Abhishek Dasgupta 29 Oct '08

29 Oct '08

Currently, abs downloads only stuff which is tagged CURRENT, this has a result of not giving the latest PKGBUILD in some cases; especially when a change has been made that does not change the corresponding binary, but only metadata like the URL and source links. Would it cause a problem if changes like these are tagged CURRENT? I could use SVN to retrieve the packages, but that would be a greater load on the servers. -- Abhishek Dasgupta

Re: [aur-general] lib32 packages in [community]
by Abhishek Dasgupta 28 Oct '08

!!!! And I'd just given a pacman -Syu ! Good thing it didn't complete; pacman would've refused to install them anyway, right? I've a i686 chroot, and inadvertently copied the mirrorlist from the chroot to here...

[aur-general] lib32 packages in [community]
by Abhishek Dasgupta 28 Oct '08

28 Oct '08

Hi, I noticed a strange thing: lib32 PKGBUILDs are in the tree but pacman -Ss lib32 turns up nothing. This is on a 64bit system, so I would expect the lib32 packages to be there. I checked with a few other [community] packages and they turn up on a pacman -Ss. I've attached my mirrorlist. -- Abhishek Dasgupta <http://abhidg.mine.nu> GPG 67972DOF pgp.mit.edu

[aur-general] funny-manpages and asr-manpages
by Arkham 26 Oct '08

26 Oct '08

Hello, these two packages ( http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=3759 and http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=3760 ) need to be updated but the original author doesn't reply to my emails. Moreover, the PKGBUILDs have a really horrible indentation. Could someone please orphan them so that I can adopt?
