[aur-general] Spring cleaning (moving orphaned packages from [community] to AUR)
by Alexander F Rødseth 05 Mar '20

05 Mar '20

Hello, It's time for the semi-yearly package cleanup of [community] packages, as is tradition. I have gathered a list of "unneeded orphans" in [community] (packages that currently has no maintainer, and no other package depends on them) from the excellent list on our web page. TUs and Devs, please adopt, if you're interested: adapta-kde - Adapta theme for KDE Plasma 5 agg - High Quality Rendering Engine for C++ aide - A file integrity checker and intrusion detection program. arch - A modern and remarkable revision control system. arc-kde - Arc theme for KDE Plasma 5 aspell-it - Italian dictionary for aspell aspell-ru - Russian dictionary for aspell autofs - A kernel-based automounter for Linux bar - A script for showing progress bars. bomberclone - Clone of the game Atomic Bomberman cellwriter - A grid-entry natural handwriting input panel. curseofwar - Fast-paced RTS/Action game with ncurses interface dcfldd - DCFL (DoD Computer Forensics Lab) dd replacement with hashing deadbeef - A GTK+ audio player for GNU/Linux. dumb-a4 - IT, XM, S3M and MOD player library (for Allegro 4) easystroke - Use mouse gestures to initiate commands and hotkeys. eclipse-cpp - Highly extensible IDE for C++ eclipse-java - Highly extensible IDE for Java eclipse-javascript - Highly extensible IDE for JavaScript eclipse-jee - Highly extensible IDE for JEE eclipse-php - Highly extensible IDE for PHP eclipse-rust - Highly extensible IDE for Rust esmtp - An easy SMTP forwarder. flac123 - Command-line program for playing FLAC audio files gimp-dbp - David's batch processor for the GIMP gimp-plugin-fblur - Makes out of focus with luminosity and depth gimp-plugin-lqr - Plugin for The GIMP providing Liquid Rescale gimp-plugin-wavelet-denoise - Tool to reduce noise in each channel of an image separately gimp-refocus - A sharpen plugin for gimp using FIR Wiener filtering glide - Dependency management and vendoring for Go projects glitz - OpenGL image compositing library gnunet-gtk - A frontend for GNUnet gtk-theme-switch2 - Gtk2 theme switcher gvmd - greenbone-vulnerability-manager gvm-tools - greenbone-vulnerability-manager tools icecast - Streaming audio over the Internet ifuse - A fuse filesystem to access the contents of an iPhone or iPod Touch iverilog - Icarus Verilog compiler and simulation tool javasqlite - Java wrapper including a basic JDBC driver for the SQLite 2/3 database engine matrix-appservice-irc - Node.js IRC bridge for Matrix minbif - An IRC gateway to IM networks that uses libpurple. mod_wsgi - Python WSGI adapter module for Apache monica - Monitor calibration tool mythes-pl - Polish thesaurus ntop - A network traffic probe that shows the network usage. ode - High performance library for simulating rigid body dynamics openvas - Vulnerability scanning Daemon pdfmod - Simple application for modifying PDF written in C Sharp pidgin-otr - Off-the-Record Messaging plugin for Pidgin. pinta - Drawing/editing program modeled after Paint.NET.

PS. If unmaintained orphans in [core] could be moved to [extra], and unmaintained orphans in [extra] could be moved to [community], that could be a nice "trickle down" effect and would be an appreciated cleanup as well, but that is just my opinion. To quote our newly elected leader, in connection with the previous spring cleaning: > Cleanup is always good > > - Levente Polyak -- Best regards, Alexander F. Rødseth / xyproto

[aur-general] What is pkgrel and why/how should I use it?

Hello all, sorry if this is not in the appropriate mailing list. I am developing an AUR package, and it says that pkgrel is a required field. Right now, I simply leave it at 1, but I want to know how I should really use it and what its purpose is. Thanks, Yash

[aur-general] Question about AUR submission guidelines rule #1
by Lone_Wolf 27 Feb '20

27 Feb '20

Hi, Scimmia pointed me to [1] in answer of a request by me on forum. I re-read the page and realised the exception to the first rule leaves some things open. text quoted from wiki for reference : * The submitted PKGBUILDs must not build applications *already in any* of the *official* binary *repositories* under any circumstances. Check the official package database <https://www.archlinux.org/packages/> for the package. If any version of it exists, *do not* submit the package. If the official package is out-of-date, flag it as such. If the official package is broken or is lacking a feature, then please file a bug report <https://bugs.archlinux.org/>. *Exception* to this strict rule may only be packages having *extra features* enabled and/or *patches* in comparison to the official ones. In such an occasion the |pkgname| should be different to express that difference. For example, a package for GNU screen containing the sidebar patch could be named |screen-sidebar|. Additionally the |provides=('screen')| array should be used in order to avoid conflicts with the official package. The package types listed below are in AUR and appear to be allowed but are not mentioned in the exception . - packages that *remove *features. example : mesa-noglvnd[2] disables glvnd support but is otherwise the same as extra/mesa of the same upstream version . Maybe change the wording to clarify this ? - VCS packages building trunk master or specific branches example : gcc-git [3] The PKGBUILD is very similar to repo version, but it does build trunk master. Are they considered to have 'patches' or should they be mentioned specifically ? - VCS packages building a specific commit or revision (Sorry, can't find an example atm.) Usually these are considered 'stable' versions. Are they seen as packages having patches or should they have their own rule ? Suppose we have 2 packages of this type : A builds a commit that matches exactly with latest released version, B builds some commit without a tag or label.. In my opinion A violates rule#1, but I'm unsure about B. How do we make the difference clear ? - Older versions of repo packages There are plenty of older versions of repo packages in AUR . Just search for gcc or llvm. I don't see anything in the exception that applies to these packages.

[aur-general] guile-json package disappeared
by 藍挺瑋 15 Feb '20

15 Feb '20

My guix package on AUR depends on guile-json >= 3. This package used to be available on AUR, but now I could not find it. A user reported an installation failure on guix because of missing guile-json. Why the package disappeared? I tried to find guile-json on aur-requests, but I only found an accepted orphan request. I found no deletion request. https://lists.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-requests/2019-December/036025.html https://lists.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-requests/2020-January/036592.html

[aur-general] Review of clickhouse-static PKGBUILD
by Felixoid 14 Feb '20

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hello, dear TUs and Arch developers. I'd like to ask relative the package clickhouse-static[1].

[aur-general] Issue python PKGBUILD

Hi, After a new release of a python module, I'm facing an issue to update the PKGBUILD. I get a permission error in the package() section: Traceback (most recent call last): File "setup.py", line 52, in <module> setup( File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/skbuild/setuptools_wrap.py", line 639, in setup _copy_file(data_file, dest_data_file, hide_listing) File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/skbuild/setuptools_wrap.py", line 828, in _copy_file copyfile(src_file, dest_file) File "/usr/lib/python3.8/shutil.py", line 259, in copyfile with open(src, 'rb') as fsrc, open(dst, 'wb') as fdst: PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '_skbuild/linux-x86_64-3.8/ cmake-install/src/third-party/headers/muparserx/.git/objects/pack/pack- bcece967ee9ec3297e6c8709d2c6d670ad7e3af2.idx' However, if I execute python setup.py install --root="test-install" -- optimize=1 --skip-build manually I cannot replicate the error. Is there any difference between when makepkg executes that command and when I do it myself? Thanks, Iyán

Greetings I'd like to contribute to the Arch community by updating the chirp-daily AUR pkgbuild. I've updated the pkgbuild, added my ssh key to my AUR account and tested this on my local system with success. After reviewing the wiki I'm unsure of how to become the maintainer. I've emailed the current maintainer and received his blessing to take over the package. Otherwise I'm unable to push the changes as I do not have the proper ssh origin. Thanks! Kayin

[aur-general] EQ And Community Kindness
by michael Bostwick 17 Jan '20

17 Jan '20

Hi, This is my first time writing the mailing list, to be honest I would have preferred anther way of bringing this up, but *I didn't see an easy way to bring my concern to someone who's empowered to fix this strong comment or make it better.* I was looking into a package to solve a complex programming task when I encountered a rather jarring pinned comment . ( https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libc%2B%2B/#pinned-678768 ) " Hi people, this is your regular reminder to SHUT UP about validpgpkeys checks and complaints about the fact that test suites exist. This package is doing the correct thing, and there has been a great deal of pointless moaning and whining about it, but there is also multiple pinned comments explaining why every one of those complaints is not only null and void, but retroactively ridiculous. The banhammer is ready and waiting in case you *still* want to ignore all this on top of the Trusted User warning." I really hope no one was banned by the writer of this comment, and I really hope as trusted users in the future you guys would *be a little more kind* to members of the aur community. Many linux users may be familiar with Linus Torvalds writings on his mistakes with EQ, I hope no one in aur has to experience that. For those trusted AUR members that have been kind I say *thank you for your hard work*, and for those that mean well but are harsh please keep in mind when you see a package the first thing you see in the pinned comment (and alot of context that is missed), and that speaks loudly to your impressions of aur. Thanks For your time in reading my comment, Michael B

Re: [aur-general] Being an asshole to package maintainers is a bannable offense, and that's okay
by Niels Egidius Johan Meijer 16 Jan '20

16 Jan '20

Hello everyone, this is my first time posting too, I hope nothing went wrong. To demonstrate that it is the presentation of the comment in question but not the content that some experience as inappropriate, I tried to re-write it for myself in a less 'emotive' way. It is usually really hard to properly express emotive content in a written text without creating ambiguity about the intention of the original poster, which I feel underlies most controversies about 'unwelcomingness' on the Internet: > Hi people, there have been a large number of complaints about the testing this package does, such as validpgpkeys checks. This package is doing the correct thing, and several previous pinned comments [have attempted to] explain why these complaints are not valid. Please refer to those before posting any additional comments. The text in []s would make the message a bit more polite, as not including it might make what other might consider a subjective claim. I put it in brackets as I it might change the content of the message a bit. The final sentence prevents users from bringing up the stale arguments that the original message tried to prevent, but does not assume anything about the intentions of the reader, which is more polite IMO. If the poster wants to be a bit more explicit, it could be replaced with the following. > Please refrain from posting any additional comments [that are already addressed by this discussion]. I feel that this is probably rude to say without the parts in brackets (as it forbids a reader who might bring up a valid point from participating), but that part might change the content a bit, hence the brackets. So far the message politely asks the reader not to do something, which might make any willing violation of this request against the implicit expectation of civilised behaviour one can/should assume in a public 'medium' such as the AUR. If somebody does this anyway I am pretty sure everyone can agree that banning could be logical next step. However, to not change the content: to make the threat of a ban explicit one could add the following line: > Please note that Moderators/TUs might [need to] resort to banning users to minimise additional noise in the comment section. However, I really think such a consequence should already be clear from the previous text. Including it might therefore make the message more hostile than it needs to be in order to achieve the desired goal (no more spammy complaints), and also slightly implies that the writer is just pretending to sound polite. (Is it called a 'comment section'?) I'd like to mention that I am not too sure about the mentioned technicalities. I also tried my best not to 'censor' the message in any kind, just change the presentation. Switching to a more formal (less-emotive) register is my go-to approach when a discussion might get heated, and I wanted to add my two cents. I hope they are of some use in any future considerations! Kind regards, Niels E. J. Meijer

[aur-general] Sha256sum unexpected behaviour
by Leonidas Spyropoulos 10 Jan '20

10 Jan '20

Hello, I got a weird issue with sha256sum behaviour. When creating the package with makepkg --geninteg I get a hash and when trying to build it with makepkg the hash fails. The interesting bit is --ptintsrcinfo comes up with a different hash. Anyone got some idea why this might happen? See below some debugging info ~/linux-gc$ makepkg --geninteg ==> Retrieving sources... -> Found linux-v5.4.10-arch1.tar.gz -> Found config -> Found 0001_bmq_v5.4-r1.patch -> Found 0002_enable_additional_cpu_optimizations-20190822.tar.gz ==> Generating checksums for source files... sha256sums=('bd51016d038277d2edd4e6d6def53b0ba24e0b238662d404a07a7d706ad2b5d3' 'aa77f7e3b611787f734c7e7d7503d3debf9af86ac999e8bccf533c5a854ec15b' '0b770209a72171dfd46401d67d13204a767eb1749ef522df7ea7292b83046537' '8c11086809864b5cef7d079f930bd40da8d0869c091965fa62e95de9a0fe13b5') ~/linux-gc$ makepkg --printsrcinfo pkgbase = linux-gc pkgdesc = Linux pkgver = 5.4.10 pkgrel = 1 url = https://cchalpha.blogspot.co.uk/ arch = x86_64 license = GPL2 makedepends = bc makedepends = kmod makedepends = libelf makedepends = xmlto makedepends = python-sphinx makedepends = python-sphinx_rtd_theme makedepends = graphviz makedepends = imagemagick makedepends = git options = !strip source = linux-v5.4.10-arch1.tar.gz::https://git.archlinux.org/linux.git/snapshot/li… source = config source = 0001_bmq_v5.4-r1.patch::https://gitlab.com/alfredchen/bmq/raw/master/5.4/bm… source = 0002_enable_additional_cpu_optimizations-20190822.tar.gz::https://github.co… validpgpkeys = ABAF11C65A2970B130ABE3C479BE3E4300411886 validpgpkeys = 647F28654894E3BD457199BE38DBBDC86092693E validpgpkeys = 8218F88849AAC522E94CF470A5E9288C4FA415FA sha256sums = 1fda6369ec7038c9ca1fe7aa6206977c5b8983c77e9d74e4ba458a4d042d1d31 sha256sums = aa77f7e3b611787f734c7e7d7503d3debf9af86ac999e8bccf533c5a854ec15b sha256sums = 0b770209a72171dfd46401d67d13204a767eb1749ef522df7ea7292b83046537 sha256sums = 8c11086809864b5cef7d079f930bd40da8d0869c091965fa62e95de9a0fe13b5 pkgname = linux-gc pkgdesc = The Linux kernel and modules with the BMQ CPU scheduler depends = coreutils depends = kmod depends = initramfs optdepends = crda: to set the correct wireless channels of your country optdepends = linux-firmware: firmware images needed for some devices provides = linux-gc=5.4.10 pkgname = linux-gc-headers pkgdesc = Headers and scripts for building modules for the Linux kernel depends = linux-gc provides = linux-gc-headers=5.4.10 provides = linux-headers=5.4.10 Thanks, -- Leonidas Spyropoulos A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.

[aur-general] SweetHome3D related PKGBUILDs
by Alexis BRENON 08 Jan '20

08 Jan '20

Hi all, By default, SweetHome3D comes with only a few 3D models to add to your scene. Some are advertised on its site but it requires that you download them manually and then add them to SweetHome3D. I think it could be nice to have some assets package in AUR which download and add assets automatically. 8 different libraries are provided, some which are specific (for trees or for persons), and they aren't so lightweight so I choose to make 1 package for each library. Hence I wrote some scripts which generate PKGBUILDs and .install script for each package: https://github.com/AlexisBRENON/3dmodels-pkgbuild Here is the PKGBUILD for one of them to show you an example: --- # Maintainer: Alexis BRENON <brenon.alexis+arch at gmail dot com> pkgname=sweethome3d-3dmodels-contributions pkgver=1.7.1 pkgrel=1 pkgdesc="Free 3D models advertised on SweetHome3D website" arch=('any') url="http://www.sweethome3d.com/freeModels.jsp" license=("custom:FreeArtLicence") optdepends=("sweethome3d: Models rendering" "sweethome3d-3dmodels-blendswap-cc0: More 3D models" "sweethome3d-3dmodels-blendswap-ccby: More 3D models" "sweethome3d-3dmodels-katorlegaz: More 3D models" "sweethome3d-3dmodels-lucapresidente: More 3D models" "sweethome3d-3dmodels-reallusion: More 3D models" "sweethome3d-3dmodels-scopia: More 3D models" "sweethome3d-3dmodels-trees: More 3D models") install="$pkgname.install" source=(" http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/sweethome3d/3DModels-Contributions-1.7.1… ") sha1sums=("5db3609b754747b018fc5362cc5421271656ceca") package() { mkdir -p $pkgdir/usr/share/eteks/sweethome3d/furniture/contributions I=0 for lib in "${srcdir}"/*.sh3f; do install -Dm644 "$lib" "$pkgdir/usr/share/eteks/sweethome3d/furniture/contributions/contributions-$(printf "%02d" "$I").sh3f" I=$(( I + 1 )) done install -Dm644 "${srcdir}"/LICENSE* "$pkgdir/usr/share/licenses/$pkgname/LICENSE" } --- Do you think that this kind of packages would be useful and fit in the rules of submissions? Kind, Alexis.

[aur-general] Change package name?
by Brian Allred 08 Jan '20

08 Jan '20

Hi all, yochananmarqos made a good point on my gpmdp <https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gpmdp/> package. It's a -bin package, but I didn't originally submit it as such. Is there a way to change its name without losing the comment history and changelog? I can resubmit as gpmdp-bin if necessary, just wanted to check first. Thanks, Brian

[aur-general] Dropping official gitlab packages
by Sven-Hendrik Haase 27 Dec '19

27 Dec '19

Hi guys, I maintain the official gitlab packages gitlab, gitlab-gitaly, gitlab-runner, gitlab-shell, gitlab-workhorse and python-gitlab. Out of these, I'll be dropping gitlab, gitlab-gitaly, gitlab-shell and gitlab-workhorse because they are way too much work to maintain and I can't keep up and the result isn't great. Currently known bugs: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/62837 https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/63679 https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/63688 https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/63935 https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/63950 https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/64337 https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/64887 Unless any other masochistic TU really wants to feel the pain, I'll be dropping them in about two weeks. Sven
