Hi all, I'm out of commission for a while (not sure how long) so I won't be able to update my packages. If any TU wants to bump the obvious ones (e.g. firefox-esr) please feel free. Best, Jonathon

For AUR PKGBUILD checkup
by Sharafat Karim 09 Jan '23

09 Jan '23

Hi there, I'm writing to request that my PKGBUILD for *kate-wakatime* be added to the Arch User Repository (AUR). I have tested the PKGBUILD and it works as expected. But I'm unsure about this script's formatting or other checkups. I'll really appreciate any advice. Here's my PKGBUILD, > # Maintainer: sharafat <sharafat two thousand four at gmail> > > pkgname=kate-wakatime-git > pkgver=1.3.10 > pkgrel=1 > pkgdesc=" Kate plugin to interface with WakaTime" > arch=('x86_64') > url="https://github.com/wakatime/$pkgname" > license=('unknown') > makedepends=('git' 'cmake' 'extra-cmake-modules') > depends=('kate') > conflicts=('kate-wakatime') > source=("git+https://github.com/Tatsh/kate-wakatime") > md5sums=('SKIP') > > build() { > cmake -B build -S "kate-wakatime" \ > -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE='None' \ > -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX='/usr' \ > -Wno-dev > cmake --build build > } > > check() { > ctest --test-dir build --output-on-failure > } > > package() { > DESTDIR="$pkgdir" cmake --install build > } > Thank you for considering my request.

Removal of Benjamin Denhartog (sudoforge) as a Trusted User
by Morten Linderud 30 Dec '22

30 Dec '22

Yo, This is a motion for for "Special Removal of an Inactive TU" [1] for Ben Denhartog (sudoforge) based on prolonged inactivity. sudoforge has largely been unresponsive for 6 months after trying to get his key signed by our master key holders. https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/archlinux-keyring/-/issues/174 Attempts have been made to establish contact, and 2 weeks ago I got a positive response from Ben that he would submit a resignation. However no emails has appeared thus this removal request has been submitted instead. The discussion period will last for three days, after that I will open the vote, which will last for five days. -- Morten Linderud PGP: 9C02FF419FECBE16

git in makedepends?
by Greg Minshall 16 Dec '22

16 Dec '22

hi, again. if git is needed only for the "source" line of PKGBUILD (i.e., to download, and optionally verify, the source file(s)), does git need to be listed in "makedepends"? cheers, Greg

by Polarian 16 Dec '22

16 Dec '22

Hello, So currently there is two methods (which I know of) with communicating with the Arch Community, those are email (mailing list) and IRC (I believe on libera.chat?!?!?). Is there any plans to support XMPP? Thanks, Polarian
