[aur-general] Disown mingw-w64-bin
by Philip A Reimer 26 Nov '13

26 Nov '13

Could someone please disown mingw-w64-bin [1]. Since Arch Linux has a working mingw-w64 toolchain [2] now it might be better to delete it? I emailed the maintainer and only received "Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently" [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mingw-w64-bin/ [2] https://www.archlinux.org/packages/?q=mingw-w64 -ant32 http://sourceforge.net/p/mingw-w64-archlinux/wiki

[aur-general] Removal Request
by Dustin Falgout 26 Nov '13

26 Nov '13

Hi, The packages kcm-grub2[1] and kcm-grub2-git[2] are both orphans and there doesn't look to be any active development on the program. The PKGBUILD's need updating to compile properly. There is an alternative available in the AUR that has active development. (grub2-editor[3]) For that reason, please remove [1} and [2]. THANKS! Regards, Dustin [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kcm-grub2/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kcm-grub2-git/ --------------------------------------- [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/grub2-editor/

[aur-general] Removal Request: dswitcher
by tuftedocelot 26 Nov '13

Hi, Please remove dswitcher[1]. I realized it would be better served with a -git package and so I have created a new dswitcher-git package. dswitcher is no longer necessary. Thanks [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dswitcher/

[aur-general] [Delete request] virtinst-git

25 Nov '13

Hello, Since virtinst has been merged into virt-manager, the virinst-git [1] package is obsolete and may be deleted (since there is no source in the repository anyway anymore). Kind regards [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/virtinst-git/

[aur-general] Disown terminology-git
by Doug Newgard 24 Nov '13

24 Nov '13

The terminology-git [1] package doesn't build right now because of a change in the pkgver, it tries to include a '-' and makepkg errors out. I made a comment and marked the package out of date, then when I got no response to that, I sent an email to the maintainer. No response for two weeks now, so I'm requesting it be disowned so I can update it. Cravix, the current maintainer, also has other packages that I'll take care of if needed, but right now there's no major problems with them. I'll send a request if it becomes necessary. He was active up until a few months ago, so I'm hoping he returns. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/terminology-git/
