----- Forwarded message from Daenyth <daenyth%2Barch(a)gmail.com> ----- Date: Tue, 27 Aug 2013 20:59:55 -0400 From: Daenyth <daenyth%2Barch(a)gmail.com> To: Lukas Fleischer <archlinux(a)cryptocrack.de> Subject: Re: TU Votes -- Reminder! Hi Lukas, I think I must have missed doing this earlier, but unfortunately I find that I have to resign my position as a TU. It's been a lot of fun and I've really enjoyed working alongside so many great people and learning through it, but I have a lot of new things going on in my life these days that doesn't leave me time for the responsibility. Could you please forward this email to the AUR list as well? I unsubscribed some time ago. Warm regards, -Gavin On Tue, Aug 27, 2013 at 7:46 PM, Lukas Fleischer <archlinux(a)cryptocrack.de> wrote: I am sending this mail to all TUs who skipped three (or more) votes (in succession). Guys, I really appreciate all your work but please remember that all TUs *must* take part in votes. If there are too many TUs neglecting votes, we fail to reach quorums and TU power stagnates. Also keep in mind that skipping too many votes automatically triggers a special TU removal... Thank you for your cooperation. Cheers, Lukas ----- End forwarded message -----

[aur-general] Proofreading request
by Clément Junca 28 Aug '13

Hello, Could someone have a look at the attached package, please ? It's my first AUR package written from scratch. I've packaged the script Feather written in Python2 by Dan Rue to handle backups with tarsnap (https://github.com/danrue/feather) It contains some difficulties for a beginner: sources from github, a patch to correct Python executable name and a custom licence. I would be glad to have a seasoned packager looking at it. Running namcap gives two warnings: feather-git W: Dependency included and not needed ('tarsnap') feather-git W: Dependency included and not needed ('python2-yaml') since namcap probably can't notice their usage as a system call and as a Python library. Best regards, -- Clément

[aur-general] Removal request htmldoc-patched
by Mariusz Libera 28 Aug '13

28 Aug '13

Hi, please remove htmldoc-patched, it's now the same as htmldoc. Also consider deleting htmldoc-svn as it's currently broken and seems to be unmaintained for a long time. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/htmldoc-patched/

[aur-general] Remove package 'python2-gmusicapi-git'
by Kristóf Jakab 28 Aug '13

28 Aug '13

Hi! I've just submitted the package python2-gmusicapi-git, but was told that the name is misleading (it is an unstable, development branch), so I'm asking you to remove it from the AUR. Thanks in advance!

A few additional notes: - Your patch is small. You can use `sed` instead. sed -i 's|env python|env python2|' feather sed -i 's|binpath: /usr/local/bin/|binpath: /usr/bin/|' feather.yaml.dist - Here is a fixed and cleaned version of your `config.install` file: # You should probably run this on install, not on upgrade. # If you want to run this on both install and upgrade, you can do this: # post_install() { # post_upgrade # } post_install() { # Install file output should be dense. echo 'Feather is designed to be run from cron like this:' # The quotation marks are necessary here. Without them, the shell will expand the asterisks. echo ' */5 * * * * /usr/bin/feather /etc/feather.yaml' # 'shall' gives the impression that the file will be updated automatically. echo 'Configuration file /etc/feather.yaml must be updated before running.' } - It is common to name install files after the packages they belong to. You should consider naming your install file `feather.install` or `feather-git.install`.

[aur-general] Inactive until 18. September
by Thorsten Töpper 27 Aug '13

27 Aug '13

Hello, I will be inactive until the 18th September 2013. I voted in any of the currently open votes, so count me into the quorum. The reason for my inactivity is, that I need to focus on my thesis until I hand it in. I won't be completely gone, I just won't invest much time into reading and writing mails or spent much time online at all. Please take care of my packages and be aware that john is based on the community enhanced version and not the official free version that lacks lots of features. (1.7.9 with jumbo patches is ahead of a plain 1.8.0 but includes its features.) Cheers, Thorsten
