[aur-general] Mutt vs Gmail (Was: An idea for vim scripts/plugins)
by Andrei Thorp 12 May '09

12 May '09

Well, I have all my mailing lists neatly arraged here and so on. They get filed to labels and archived automatically so that I can read them in a unified place. I'd have to change this up so that they go to the inbox, and that screws up my mail filtering in gmail then (afaik). It kind of forces me to compromise one way or another (either have the nice tidy thing in gmail, or the nice tidy thing on my one box, but not both). Since gmail offers it anywhere, I prefer to do it this way. Also, despite the mutt way being pretty nice and unixy (letting me script it easily into my window manager and so on), gmail just has an excellent interface with the folding, images, and so on. I hate to not use the classic mail setup everywhere, but it's just not as tidy anymore :/ What do people think on this topic? I personally find gmail to be extremely convenient, but I'm willing to be enlightened otherwise. -AT On Mon, May 11, 2009 at 10:15 AM, Ricardo Martins <ricardo(a)scarybox.net> wrote: > On Mon, 11 May 2009 10:05, Andrei Thorp wrote: >> Ah, I see.

[aur-general] Fwd: [arch-dev-public] Audio packages
by Eric Bélanger 12 May '09

12 May '09

Is there any TU interested in these audio packages? ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Allan McRae Date: Fri, May 1, 2009 at 6:31 AM Subject: [arch-dev-public] Audio packages To: Public mailing list for ArchLinux development <arch-dev-public(a)archlinux.org> Hi all, Do we have a dev here that wants to spend some time with the audio packages? They have not received much love lately... The jackbeat update requires moving portaudio from [community]. We also have ardour that is quite out-of-date but requires adding several deps to the repos. I updated jack-audio-connection-kit, but it also needs a rework of is rc.d script to actually make it useful and I have not had time to address yet (if anybody wants to do this contact me for the details). So, what do we do? Is there a dev who has time and interest to take these over? Otherwise do we bring someone onboard to maintain these packages or encourage someone in the arch-audio group to become a TU and move them to community? Allan

[aur-general] updating: community/mitter
by Gergely Imreh 12 May '09

12 May '09

Hi, I've seen that community/mitter has been out-of-date for a long time, and the package could be improved somewhat anyway, so updated it. Would a TU add the update, if the package owner does not seem to do it? Cheers, Greg # Contributor: Geoffroy Carrier <geoffroy.carrier(a)koon.fr> pkgname=mitter pkgver=0.4.5 pkgrel=1 pkgdesc="A PyGTK/console client for Twitter" arch=('i686' 'x86_64') url="http://code.google.com/p/mitter/" license=('GPL3') depends=('python' 'pygtk') provides=(${pkgname}) source=(http://$pkgname.googlecode.com/files/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz) build() { cd "${srcdir}/${pkgname}-${pkgver}" python setup.py install --root="${pkgdir}" || return 1 install -D -m644 "${pkgname}.desktop" "${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/${pkgname}.desktop" } md5sums=('0432f3d2d00e8d048bf0839e2d857e51')

[aur-general] Deletion request for AUR package 'tar-lzma'
by Sven-Hendrik Haase 10 May '09

10 May '09

The 'tar-lzma' package in AUR should be deleted because it has been rendered obsolete. The original tar comes with --lzma anyway so there is no need for a patched version anymore.

[aur-general] Deletion request for 'libnetworkmanager-dhclient'
by Ricardo Martins 10 May '09

10 May '09

Hi, In the recent update to networkmanager 0.7.1, libnetworkmanager isn't needed anymore. Since my PKGBUILD (libnetworkmanager-dhclient) was based on the one in [extra], it is also obsolete. Please delete it. Thanks, -- Ricardo Martins * ricardomartins.cc * GPG key: 0x1308F1B4

Radiotap, as Andrea pointed out, was added only in 2.6.29 and that is why the first patch was also included. AFAIK, it is the only way packet injection is possible with ipw2200 hardware. I would like to know how this package is obsolete. Thanks, JM
