[aur-general] Apology
by Robert Emil Berge 06 Oct '08

06 Oct '08

Hello everybody, I write this to apologise for my sudden disappearance several months ago. There's really no excuse for a TU to do such a thing, and I wish I had been able to tell you before I went away. This is not an excuse, just me saying I'm sorry, and that you'll probably see me around a bit again. A short explanation. Don't read on if you're not interested :) My work and studies, which aren't computer related, was very demanding for a while, and I used my Linux hobby to run away and not get anything done. So, when my email configuration got destroyed, I used that as a chance to force myself to concentrate on my work. I just didn't re-configure and actually cut myself off from the internet for a few months. Things are much calmer now, and I appreciate using and experimenting with Arch Linux very much, so I have decided to re-connect. Robert Emil Berge (filoktetes)

[aur-general] eclipse-qt4
by Shaika-Dzari Shaika-Dzari 06 Oct '08

Hello everyone! I maintain eclipse-qt4 in Aur. Currently the package is in error and I am unable to update it because my Arch box died yesterday (Grrr....). This package has 37 votes and some users depends on it. I would like to know: 1- Is it possible to some TU to update this package and put it in community? I think it could be a great addition. 2- If no TU is available, could a user update my package and orphan it after that? I will take it again when my new computer will be build. Thank everyone, Regard. -- Shaika-Dzari http://www.4nakama.net

Hi, I made a pkgbuild for GNU freedink and submitted it in AUR, but shortly after that the developer changed it's naming so that it has now been replaced with freedink-engine. Could you please remove 'freedink' from AUR? -- Petteri Tolonen

[aur-general] New users and groups
by Lukáš Jirkovský 05 Oct '08

05 Oct '08

Hi, I've to introduce some new users in my ossec packages. My question is: may I use specific uid's and gids in PKGBUILD or I've to use adduser and groupadd etc. in install? The problem is that if I use adduser, groupadd and chown in install script pacman complains everytime when I run update of this package. And it's of course very messy way of doing it so. On the other hand, there can be conflicts with existing users and groups. What should I do? Regards Lukas 'stativ' Jirkovsky
