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

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
by Moritz Lipp 25 Nov '13

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Hello, Since virtinst has been merged into virt-manager, the virinst-git [1] package is obsolete and may be deleted (since there is no source in the repository anyway anymore).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 I made a comment and marked the package out of date, then when I got no response to that, I sent an email to the maintainer.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/

Re: [aur-general] Deletion for enigmail?
by David Manouchehri 24 Nov '13

24 Nov '13

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 That makes sense, thanks. It's purely an extension. Right off their website: Enigmail is a security extension to Mozilla Thunderbird and Seamonkey. It enables you to write and receive email messages signed and/or encrypted with the OpenPGP standard. There's also a -bin package that follows the same naming pattern I believe. Maybe rename both?

[aur-general] bluez4 has been dropped
by Andreas Radke 24 Nov '13

24 Nov '13

Bluez4 stack related packages have been dropped from extra repo. Please remove all depending packages in our community repo (Blueman comes to my mind if it is not fully ported to bluez5). Bluez4 should not be picked up into the community repo. If people can't make their to devices work with current bluez5 they should file bugs to our tracker and work with upstream to solve the problems. -Andy
