by Lukáš Jirkovský 01 May '09

01 May '09

Hello, I've found out that almost all packages owned by user "zeus" are flagged out-of-date and last update he did is from May 2007. Maybe his packages should be orphaned. Lukáš "stativ" Jirkovský

[aur-general] KStars Removal Request
by Ronnie Collinson 28 Apr '09

28 Apr '09

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. IMHO I believe this package is now unnecessary. Link <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=9857> Thankyou Ronnie

[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!
