[aur-general] 3 packages needing to be orphaned
by Nate Crouch 08 May '09

08 May '09

avast 1.0.8-1 avg-free r51-2 fprot fp-1 have been neglected for almost a year. My email to the maintainer have gone unanswered aside from spam advertising his music performances. I wish I could take them on but alas I do not feel I have the experience to do them justice. The following is an excerpt of the message I received. "Dear Executive, enjoy the spring evocative Spanish and Latin American songs with singing and flamenco guitar soloist Oliver of "live" instruments. mfg Lothar Berger (Music Agent)"

[aur-general] (partially) Inactive
by Andrea Scarpino 06 May '09

06 May '09

Hi all, I will be inactive because I switched to a new ISP, so I will be without an internet connection for a $time (one or two weeks). I am an university student so I can use from 08AM to 07PM (GMT+1) the wireless connection at my university but it is over HTTP proxy: I will cannot use ssh/cvs/git/ftp/irc/jabber protocols. I hope to be totally active soon. Cheers -- Andrea `BaSh` Scarpino Arch Linux Developer

As my pkg ghamachi-beta was deleted as duplicate, please someone correct ghamachi pkgbuild, which has errors. Md5sum and license is wrong. I've mailed Limoto (ghamachi maintainer) about it some time ago, but without any answer. Blasse

[aur-general] Removal/review request
by Vinzenz Vietzke 04 May '09

04 May '09

Hi, There seem to be some duplicates of P2PTV-Tool "Zattoo" in AUR. Since this program is only available as Beta, the name of [2] is redundant - I think [2] can be removed. In case of [3] and [4] I'm not sure: the first is dedicated for Switzerland, but I don't think there's a difference in PKGBUILD to [1] and [2], so removing it might be okay. The second one, [4], is named with "bin32-" in the beginning, so I'm ab bit unsure here too. Perhaps someone can have a look on these four PKGBUILDs - thanks! vinz [1] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=10917 [2] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=18688 [3] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=12859 [4] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=23635 -- Vinzenz Vietzke www.archmirror.de

[aur-general] Huge packages in community
by Angel Velásquez 04 May '09

04 May '09

Hi, I've syncing my home repo today (like I've been doing since months ago) and I got irritated downloading 595 mb of nexuiz, come on, this package can be popular or whatever, but IMHO having a 595mb package on the repos will be painful. I propose for a motion to remove packages like games > 250 mb, I am not a TU anymore and I know that, but the waste of bandwith downloading games is *really* killer... A solution could be: a) Creating an official repo called [games] or something like, where TUs and Devs can put games there (huge games principally. b) Definetively not upload games to the repos I am the administrator of two official mirrors, and watching this situation I am really worried if packages > 250 mb (games) will be downloaded / updated eventually and I will have to waste GBs on this. Please don't take this personal, but IIRC "Gerolde" was suffering for the lack of space months ago, and even if this package and those huge popular games > 250 mb doesn't merely to be on the official repos, frankly (but thanks for the effort to waste the disk space Xyne!). Anyway, that's my humble opinion. -- Angel Velásquez angvp @ irc.freenode.net Linux Counter: #359909

The AUR package 'mayavi' hasn't been updated in a long time and has since been superseded by 'python-enthought-mayavi'. Please remove the former package to avoid confusion.

I just noticed the at76_usb module is in the new staging tree of the mainline kernel, so the AUR package can be removed. at76_usb-firmware is still needed. Thanks, Jared Casper

[aur-general] Problem with repackeging vmware-server-modules
by Simon Streit 01 May '09

01 May '09

Hi, I'm trying to build the vmware-server-modules [1] package for kernel 2.6.29. My problem is though, that the patch, that I fetched from the wiki page [2] is failing with several errors, although it is supposed to work. My question is now, if somebody would like to have a look at the package as I don't have any clue now how I should succeed as I just can't find other working patches without needing to patch the kernel. I attached the source package with the log file from makepkg so somebody can have a look at it. Thanks in advance, Simon [1] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=7400 [2] http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Installing_VMware#VMware_and_kernel_2.6…

Hi, I recently took over maintenance of Kstars, but discovered after that it is no longer distributed by itself, instead its part of the kdeedu collection, furthermore it can be installed by itself from kdemod.
