[aur-general] orphan request: python-flask-oauth
by Zack Buhman 29 May '13

29 May '13

I attempted to message the current maintainer about getting python-flask-oauth [1] to python2-flask-oauth, but the message bounced with "550 5.1.1 <socialcompu(a)abv.bg>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual mailbox table". If this package could be orphaned, I'd appreciate it. Thanks. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-flask-oauth/

[aur-general] Removal Request: firestarter-gtkstatusicon
by Phillip Smith 28 May '13

28 May '13

I'd like to suggest [1] be removed as it is identical to the plain firestarter package [2], except with one patch commented out. Seems wasteful to have a separate package just to comment 1 patch.

[aur-general] Orphan request [5/27]
by Limao Luo 28 May '13

28 May '13

The following packages https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/acroread/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dosbox-svn/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/violet/ are all broken atm, and have been for a while. The maintainer's email bounces, and acroread even has a solution in the comments. I would like to fix them up, if that's possible. Thanks in advance. - luolimao

[aur-general] community/python2-flask conflicts python-flask
by Zack Buhman 28 May '13

28 May '13

I was in the process of creating a python3 package [1] for flask, but I've noticed python2-flask [2] seems to conflicts+replace "python-flask". I imagine this was for historical reasons, but this introduces probably unintentional behavior when a package provides python-flask (the python3 version of flask): :: python-flask-git and python2-flask are in conflict (python-flask). Remove python2-flask? [y/N] Would it be appropriate to (directly) contact said TU about his package, or is it innappropriate to expect TUs to yield to AUR packages/maintainers? Thanks.

[aur-general] I renamed my PKGBUILD, and now there is duplicate packages...
by Cody Dostal 28 May '13

28 May '13

In the normal development of my application, I renamed the pkgname of my PKGBUILD, and accidentally caused a duplicate program entry. Can I please get https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wifiz/ either removed, or merged into https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wifiz-git/? wifiz-git is the updated version. Thank you very much, and sorry about the trouble. -Cody

[aur-general] move/orphan/delete outdated aur package, aur/python-flask-git
by Zack Buhman 27 May '13

27 May '13

aur/python-flask-git [1] has been marked out of date since 2012, and in addition I've personally emailed said maintainer about the issue, with no reply. It seems he created a package designed before extra/python provided python3 rather than python2. As written, however, he's attempting to package python2 sources with python3. I've created a PKGBUILD [2] that I'd like to upload with the same name (which actually does use the upstream python3 sources). Might I humbly ask that the package either be 1) renamed to python2-flask-git to give said maintainer more time to correct the problems with his package 2) deleted/orphaned entirely. Thanks.

[aur-general] libtiff4 and libtiff-so4
by Thiago Kenji Okada 27 May '13

27 May '13

I just pushed a package named libtiff-so4 [1] that builds from source an older version of libtiff (3.9.7) and links to libtiff.so.4, since some program/packages depends on it (like Scilab's SIVP), as can be seem here [3]. A better name to this package would be libtiff4. But there is already a package named libtiff4 [2] that download the package from Ubuntu. I think this package should be renamed to libtiff4-ubuntu and so my package can be named libtiff4.
