[aur-general] PKGBUILDS removal request and question
by Borislav Gerassimov 27 Apr '09

27 Apr '09

Greetings! I've recently (friday) adopted the qutim-related orphans, well almost all of the qutim PKGBUILDS. There are some of theme that are in fact duplicates, created because the originals were not updated. I've updated the duplicates, so I can suggest the following to be removed: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=24518 qutim-protocol-icq-svn http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=24519 qutim-protocol-irc-svn http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=24520 qutim-protocol-jabber-svn http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=24521 qutim-protocol-mrim-svn I've added provides=(..) and replaces=(..) lines in the corresponding qutim- plugin-*-svn PKGBUILDS. Is this enough? Also I've decided to update the qutim-svn PKGBUILD and remove the others, which are: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=22515 qutim-core-svn http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=21918 qutim-svn-dev There are conflicts=(..) and provides=(..) lines in the qutim-svn PKGBUILD but I'm not sure if replaces=(..) is needed there. The goal is to have qutim-svn and qutim-plugin-*-svn PKGBUILDs only. Thanks at advance for your replies and actions. If something is wrong with all this, please share your opinions. -- Borislav Gerassimov | borislavba - at - gmail.com Don't print if not necessary!

[aur-general] When does a package need -svn?
by hollunder＠gmx.at 27 Apr '09

27 Apr '09

Hi there, the developer of ardour changed the download page (1) in a way that doesn't allow downloads without going through a dialogue where he asks for donation. Donation is not mandatory but there's no direct link to the source tarball available anymore. All ardour packages, including the one I maintain (2), are broken since this change. The in my opinion best way to overcome this issue is to determine the svn revision of the release, check it out and build that instead. Although it technically using svn it wouldn't follow a branch. Would it ok to just leave the package name as is? The other method I can think of that wouldn't need svn would be to upload the tarball elsewhere, something I rather not do. (1) http://www.ardour.org/download (2) http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=22752 Best regards, Philipp

[aur-general] Deletion request for 'changefirefoxicon'

I request the AUR package 'changefirefoxicon' be deleted for duplicate (of 'firefox-branded') and severe breach of all good PKGBUILD rules. Just look at it, but I warn you as you might fall right from your chair either laughing or crying. Please just delete it.

[aur-general] Problems with scilab packages
by Stefan Husmann 25 Apr '09

25 Apr '09

Hello, I have a strange problem with the scilab packages I maintain in [community]. The i686 version lacks a directory /usr/share/scilab/modules/helptools/jar/ , which is needed for the help browser. The package for x86_64 has this directory. I have no idea why this ist the case, since they both use the same PKGBUILD. Any hints are appreciated. Regards Stefan

[aur-general] python-2.6.2 and files in /usr/lib/python2.5

Hi all, I have just put python-2.6.2-1 into [testing]. This remove the python-2.5 compatibility sitepath so anything not rebuilt since python-2.6 was release will be broken. The list of broken packages as of yesterday is in FS#13831 (http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/13831?getfile=3375) Note that these don't need built against the python in [testing] to be fix, just rebuilt against an python-2.6 package.

[aur-general] rkhunter package and kernel26fbcondecor
by Heiko Baums 21 Apr '09

21 Apr '09

Hi! First I wanted to ask, if there's a reason, why the package rkhunter was removed from AUR. Second I had to rename the package kernel26fbcondecor to kernel26-fbcondecor due to some nice changes in the PKGBUILD of kernel26, which makes compiling and maintaining other kernel packages a lot easier. See my comments for both packages. So I guess the package kernel26fbcondecor can be removed from AUR. It can be found here: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=14982 Regards, Heiko

[aur-general] Packaging perl modules - best practices for dependancies?
by Oliver Charles 20 Apr '09

20 Apr '09

Hi all, I used to use Arch a while ago, and packaged quite a few Perl modules [1]. After switching operating systems, I've come back to Arch - and I need to be a good maintainer of my packages :) I remember when I wrote these how frustrating it was manually writing just about every package for the dependancy tree. Personally, I'm of the stance that you should choose one package manager and stick with it - either all CPAN or fully Pacman/AUR. However, I've seen quite a few packages that do not do this. Instead, they rely on the fact that Build.PL and Makefile.PL are both capable of installing dependancies from CPAN. Like I said, I personally don't like this approach of mixing 2 package managers, it just seems like a recipe for confusing both package managers. Could anyone shed some light on what the *correct* procedure is - and also if there any tools out there that will scrape CPAN to build packages, before I write my own (in Perl, of course ;) Thank you! -- Oliver Charles / aCiD2 [1]: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?SeB=m&K=aCiD2 are my packages if you wish to check them

[aur-general] adopting from community: pinot

Hi, I was checking orphan packages that should be revived. I found Pinot [1] and made a new version. Since it is in "community", though, it cannot be adopted. I attach the new version of the package here (tar.gz, because it has Changelog, PKGBUILD and .install) and you can apply it to the CVS version. Or if you release it from community, I'll adopt it then. Cheers, Greg [1] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=8700

[aur-general] Resigning as a TU
by Allan McRae 18 Apr '09

18 Apr '09

Hi all, I have decided it is time for me to resign as a TU. This has been a decision that has been on my mind for a while. I am wanting to focus my efforts on what I see as core parts of Arch (primarily pacman development and what I consider "core" packages). I currently leave any requests for package orphaning and deletion and AUR password change requests to others and I have been relying on others to check TU applicants packaging skills, so I am not doing TU stuff anyway. I will still be around to give my opinion is someone wants it. I will continue maintaining my packages in [community] (at least for the time being) but I no longer use the following packages and so they are up for adoption if someone wants them: axel barrage blobwars bmpanel colordiff critter curlftpfs dtach exaile (with cddb-py) gauplol gimmix (with libnxml) gnochm gnome-cup-manager gnome-do + gnome-do-plugins (with flickrnet + gnome-keyring-sharp-svn + notify-sharp-svn) gnome-mplayer + gecko-mediaplayer gnome-sbtitles (with sublib) gnomebaker gprename gtk-recordmydesktop gtvg gwget libev menumaker mozplugger multiget mupen64plus ogmrip (with gpac) pida pidgin-otr pyenchant pympd python-pyalsaaudio python-sexy pytube (with ffmpeg2theora) qt-recordmydesktop shake sloccount solarwolf supertuxkart (with plib) tagtools teeworlds terminator upx visualboyadvance wbar winefish xfce4-places-plugin xmltv (with perl-fcgi + perl-html-tree + perl-http-cache-transparent + perl-http-response-encoding + perl-lingua-en-numbers + perl-lingua-en-numbers-ordinate + perl-lingua-preferred + perl-soap-lite + perl-text-bidi + perl-text-kakasi + kakasi + perl-unicode-utf8simple - Note all are rarely updated so this is not much work...) I think any TU can disown another's packages so just go ahead and adopt what you want from that list. But stick to the list as I am keeping some packages that I do still use... Allan

[aur-general] Proposed PKGBUILD for next llvm build
by Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi 17 Apr '09

17 Apr '09

Hi While fixing the insecure RPATH in community/llvm package [#1] also fixed some others issues that I encountered. (List of files in the generated packaged can viewed here [#2]) This is the list of changes from the original PKGBUILD: 0) Updated to the latest llvm version. 1) Removed libtool dependency, is only needed at build time. 2) Use the license from tarball, instead of downloading it, since is the same, that are in webpage. 3) Fixed libdir, use /usr/lib/llvm instead of /usr/lib, this is more apropiated since llvm put some .o files that are relocatable. 4) Fixed insecure rpath in all binary files. 5) Fixed the path from scripts gccld and gccas that points to build directory instead of /usr/bin 6) Removed the build of sample hello transformation. 7) Use PIC code on x86_64 builds (--enable-pic). 8) Build only for the target machine instead of all supported. 9) Added --enable-bindings=none, since if ocaml is installed will build some files for it. 10) Put --enable-optimized at configure script intead of make var. 11) Build a more "release" code with options: --disable-assertions and --disable-expensive-checks 12) Force one job at installation step since more than one job fails. # Maintainer: Geoffroy Carrier <geoffroy.carrier(a)aur.archlinux.org> # Contributor: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386(a)yahoo.com.ar> # Contributor: Tomas Lindquist Olsen <tomas(a)famolsen.dk> # Contributor: Roberto Alsina <ralsina(a)kde.org> pkgname=llvm pkgver=2.5 pkgrel=1 pkgdesc="Low Level Virtual Machine" arch=('i686' 'x86_64') url="http://llvm.org" license=('custom':'University of Illinois/NCSA Open Source License') depends=('libelf') source=("http://llvm.org/releases/$pkgver/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz") md5sums=('55df2ea8665c8094ad2ef85187b9fc74') build() { cd $srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver # --sysconfdir to configure apparently isn't enough ... sed 's:$(PROJ_prefix)/etc/llvm:/etc/llvm:' \ -i Makefile.config.in || return 1 # --libdir to configure apparently isn't enough ... sed 's:$(PROJ_prefix)/lib:$(PROJ_prefix)/lib/llvm:' \ -i Makefile.config.in || return 1 # Fix insecure rpath http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/14017 sed 's:-rpath \$(ToolDir)::g' -i Makefile.rules || return 1 # Fix path that point to the build directory sed 's:^TOOLDIR.*:TOOLDIR=/usr/bin:' \ -i tools/gccld/gccld.sh tools/gccas/gccas.sh || return 1 # remove docs from the make targets sed 's:runtime docs:runtime:' -i Makefile || return 1 # remove libHello transformation sed 's: Hello::' -i lib/Transforms/Makefile || return 1 if [ "${CARCH}" = "x86_64" ]; then _pic_flag="--enable-pic" else _pic_flag="" fi ./configure --prefix=/usr \ --libdir=/usr/lib/llvm \ --sysconfdir=/etc \ --enable-bindings=none \ --enable-targets=host-only \ --enable-optimized \ --disable-assertions \ --disable-expensive-checks ${_pic_flag} || return 1 make || return 1 # install fails with more than one make job make -j1 DESTDIR=$pkgdir install || return 1 install -D LICENSE.TXT $pkgdir/usr/share/licenses/llvm/COPYING } Cheers!
