[aur-general] Reffering to a Package Version in PKGBUILD
by Christian Scharkus 31 Oct '08

31 Oct '08

I've got a problem with xine-lib crying for ffmpeg>=20080715. I have ffmpeg-svn installed and this fullfilled the requirement. But even if I write something like presents=('ffmpeg' 'ffmpeg>=20081031') into my PKGBUILD the error occure again and again. A dynamic Date as mentioned in the comments of ffmpeg-svn (something like date +%Y%m%d would be nice). Thank you Raubkopierer

[aur-general] python2.6 rebuilds
by Allan McRae 31 Oct '08

31 Oct '08

Hi TUs, I intend to move python-2.6 and the associated rebuilds this Saturday. This requires a few, but not all, packages requiring python to be rebuilt. It would be good if everyone could check their python based packages and be ready for this. Cheers, Allan

[aur-general] xautomation package
by Christian Scharkus 31 Oct '08

31 Oct '08

Hello everybody. The current version of the package xautomation at the AUR is outdated the maintainer xcsd seems to be careless about it. The package was submitted about October 2006 and the reffered source is from April 2004. I would like to replace it with this one: # Contributor: raubkopierer <mail[dot]sensenmann[at]gmail[dot]com> pkgname=xautomation pkgver=1.02 pkgrel=1 pkgdesc="Controls X from the command line for scripts, and do \"visual scraping\" to find things on the screen." url="http://hoopajoo.net/projects/xautomation.html" arch=('i686' 'x86_64') license="GPL" depends=() source=(http://hoopajoo.net/static/projects/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz) md5sums=('523198135f7cf7a5324189aef20ac48d') build() { cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver ./configure --prefix=/usr make || return 1 make DESTDIR=$startdir/pkg install } Greetings humans ;)

by Michael Kanis 30 Oct '08

30 Oct '08

Hello, the merkaartor package in AUR is outdated. The maintainer pfreire doesn't respond to the Out-Of-Date flag, comment and e-mail. Many of his other packages are also out of date. Could you please disown the package? I would like to maintain it in the future. Michael

[aur-general] dropping gcin
by Andreas Radke 30 Oct '08

30 Oct '08

we're having gcin (Chinese input method) orphaned for a very long time and i guess no developer is interested in maintaining it or even able to set it up well. we have one or more outstanding bugs for a long time i cannot confirm or fix. i think we should leave the maintenance up to the community. they will do it far better. if no TU wants to take it i'd like to move it to unsupported. objections? -Andy

Hi I'm sad/ashamed to say this, but since a heavy workload and some issues coming into my life,... I've to go inactive at least by a month (or I hope a couple of weeks), I am planning to finish all my pending work (in job), then return and re-organize my time. I hope you all can maintain my packages, grab them if you want, or just update them. Thanks. P.S: I will be online, just busy.. so anything you need, do me a ping, so i will answer (not as quickly as always of course) -- Angel Velásquez angvp @ irc.freenode.net Linux Counter: #359909 Arch Linux Trusted User

Re: [aur-general] [request]: LXR -- Linux Cross Reference
by zhengyi 30 Oct '08

Hi, I must tell you that there is a "small" bug in the lxr, if you choose mysql as the DB. mysql taken "release" as it's keyword( I guess ), so in the file initdb-mysql, you will encounter syntax error. Because that file use 'release' as a table column. I've tried to rename it to something else, but the perl scripts of LXR complain for sql syntax error. If you familiar with perl+mysql, I guess that will not take you much time. Good luck! By the way: I suggest you to take a small scale source code package as the testing object. If you follow some docs from google, it will parse the Linux kernel code. It is a time-consuming works!

[aur-general] [request]: LXR -- Linux Cross Reference
by zhengyi 30 Oct '08

30 Oct '08

Hi, LXR seems a good tool to review software code. I tried to setup it, but failed. It needs apache mysql perl swish and so on. I'm not an expert of Mysql, and encounter something wrong while config it. There seems no aur package of it. Who can creat an AUR ? Thanks!
