[aur-general] Inactivity
by Loui Chang 17 Apr '09

17 Apr '09

Hey everyone. Next week I'm leaving for Taiwan for a month. I don't expect to be doing much for Arch for around two months though. So, I'll mark myself as inactive in the wiki. Of course, don't be afraid to poke at my packages if there's a need. Cheers!

[aur-general] Package removal
by Vinzenz Vietzke 16 Apr '09

16 Apr '09

hi all, since exfalso is included in quodlibet in [extra] and the AUR package is orphaned/outdated - shouldn't this package be removed? or shall it remain for offering the chance to install _only_ exfalso? http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=19030 vinz

[aur-general] Package removal
by Maik Opitz 15 Apr '09

15 Apr '09

Could someone please remove this package: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=16515 This is the last stable version of vdr-softdevice. But it does not longer compile on actual systems (because of gcc and ffmpeg). I made a vdr-softdevice-cvs package which works fine and should be used instead.

[aur-general] Resigning as a TU
by Firmicus 14 Apr '09

14 Apr '09

Hello all, It is also time for me to resign as a Trusted User. I've been here for two years already, and it's been quite enjoyable. But now my time schedule is getting too demanding, and I prefer to leave the field for new TUs. Of course, I will continue to contribute to the Arch community as a developer. I offer the following packages for adoption to any interested TU: pdfedit texmaker mp3unicode libxml-perl perl-crypt-ssleay perl-json perl-file-nfslock perl-freezethaw perl-mime-tools perl-term-readline perl-xml-dom perl-xml-regexp perl-xml-sax I will continue maintaining those that are not adopted, as well as the following ones (mostly perl stuff), because I use them and they are not a great deal of work, but if any one is interested I can orphan them on request. apparix perl-cpanplus-pacman perl-dbd-pg perl-file-slurp perl-list-moreutils perl-log-log4perl perl-params-validate perl-parse-recdescent perl-text-reform perl-tidy perl-xml-libxml perl-xml-libxml-common perl-xml-libxslt perl-xml-namespacesupport perl-xml-writer perl-xml-xpath Best regards, François (Firmicus)

[aur-general] python-apsw package
by Juan Miguel Cejuela 13 Apr '09

13 Apr '09

I have just updated and started to maintain the python-apsw package (the current version in AUR was from Oct 2007, when the last version is from Feb 2009) This package is needed for the tribler package (bittorrent client) Please let me know if you use this library and therefore whether the package is useful. And of course, give me any suggestion for the PKGBUILD since this is my first package I submit.

[aur-general] Questions from a new TU
by Xyne 13 Apr '09

13 Apr '09

Hi, Just let me know if there is a more appropriate place for this and sorry for all eventual noobishness. 1) Why are the "x86_64" and "i686" tags stripped out of package names? Wouldn't it make more sense to use these tags to determine the port when uploading binary packages to community? This would also be useful for uploading "any" packages (which I suppose need to be uploaded twice). 2) How can I upload both x86_64 and i686 packages from the same machine? When trying to upload an i686 package with communitypkg, it complains that it couldn't find the x86_64 package. I did change the port of tupkg but I didn't try it without communitypkg. 3) Is there any way to avoid re-uploading a package when changing the PKGBUILD if the changes have no effect on the built package (e.g. appending packages to the depends array)? Thanks, Xyne

[aur-general] Watch list
by Ashok Gautham 12 Apr '09

12 Apr '09

Can AUR have something like a watch list. It would be useful. I find that at times I forget that I flagged a package out of date. After a long time, I finally remember it and then go and check it out again. Instead, if we had something like "My watchlist", I would know which packages I am watching/monitoring for activity/inactivity --- Ashok `ScriptDevil` Gautham

[aur-general] namcap tag: hicolor-icon-cache-not-updated
by Abhishek Dasgupta 11 Apr '09

11 Apr '09

According to http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Gnome_package_guidelines#GTK_Icon_cache packages which install icons in /usr/share/icons/hicolor should depend on hicolor-icon-theme and invoke gtk-update-icon-cache. I've made a namcap module [1] which checks for the existence of the /usr/share/icons/hicolor directory and then sees if gtk-update-icon-cache is called in the install file and if hicolor-icon-theme is in the depends array. Otherwise it is reported as an error. http://github.com/abhidg/namcap/blob/d0f27f98d4e91b3fe37fc41395d0ba713f4210… -- Abhishek

[aur-general] uploading binary packages / makepkg.conf files
by Xyne 11 Apr '09

11 Apr '09

Hi, I'll be taking over Nexuiz from Swiergot and I'm working on tidying up and updating the PKGBUILD right now. (related issue: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=69617) Is there any way to build the package on the community upload server? There is a single PKGBUILD for both architectures and I have access to both x86_64 and i686 Arch systems but the binary package is about 600 MB and my ADSL upload speed is pathetic. Uploading 2 * 600 MB will take ages (at least 3.5 hours with full bandwidth saturation, which cripples other networking). I only ask because the TU checklist states "Ask Aaron for access to the x86_64 build machine if you need it (when it comes back online) " which leads me to believe that there might be build machines for both architectures. I haven't found any information about this in the wiki (AURTools Tutorial, TU Guidelines, etc). Sorry if I've missed something obvious. A related question: what's the easiest way to switch between different makepkg.conf files? I currently have CFLAGS specific to my processor in makepkg.conf and I would like to avoid changing the file every time I compile a pkg for uploading. The best solution that I can think of so far is to create a script to swap makepkg.conf files but that feels kludgy. Actually, I'll probably just submit a feature request for a "--config" option. *hopes his questions aren't embarassingly stupid* Regards, Xyne
