[aur-general] How to change wrong author email address?
by Uwe Koloska 18 Feb '21

18 Feb '21

Hello, I have used a wrong email address for pushing my package updates to aur. Is it possible to rewrite this commits? I'm not allowed to force push a rewritten history, so I think some admin intervention is needed. best regards Uwe

[aur-general] Changing package name
by Franck STAUFFER 12 Feb '21

12 Feb '21

Hello, A package I maintain has changed his name (pyidm became firedm) and I am wondering how I should change the package name. Only changing the pkgname is enough or should I create a new one and merge the first one into it? -- Franck STAUFFER ~^~ // "\\ /\\ \\ // //\\\ --------------------------- @ // ///=\\SCII Ribbon Campaign X /=---=\\gainst HTML E- Mail, vCards X /// \\nd MS attachments // \\ ------------------------------------ \ // \\ \// \\ \\

[aur-general] [ansible-aur] call for comment on pull request 50
by Roland Puntaier 02 Feb '21

02 Feb '21

Could someone comment on https://github.com/kewlfft/ansible-aur/pull/50 The issue was that ansible-aur produced an error on an empty package list. Now the question is whether ansible-aur should allow empty package lists.

[aur-general] Spam comment from Munna123
by Andy Kluger 11 Jan '21

As can be seen at https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/execline/ this account is posting spam comments. That same AUR package page also has one from "Anonymous" (anonymous commenting is allowed?). https://aur.archlinux.org/account/Munna123

[aur-general] llvm-git & lib32-llvm-git need a new maintainer
by Lone_Wolf 03 Jan '21

03 Jan '21

Hi, It's been months since I've used those packages and I feel they should be maintained by someone who actively uses them. Build times for those varies between 15 and 60+ minutes hour on my 12 core /24 threads threadripper 1920x system. The new maintainer should have access to a powerful system or be willing to accept very long build times. Is anyone interested in taking over maintenance ? Lone_Wolf

[aur-general] Mesa-git & lib32-mesa-git need new maintainer
by Lone_Wolf 03 Jan '21

03 Jan '21

Hi, I have switched to other packages and no longer use aur mesa-git & lib32-mesa-git . These 2 packages have a lot in common and should be maintained by the same person. If somebody steps up I intend to give them co-maintainership and help them in adjusting the packages to their views before stepping down as maintainer. Lone_Wolf

[aur-general] Why are orphan requests accepted immediately although wiki says there's a 2 weeks wating period ?
by Lone_Wolf 03 Jan '21

03 Jan '21

Hi, Recently I received a notification message that a package I was co-maintainer from had changed ownership. I looked at aur-requests archive and saw the orphan request was filed on Sat Jan 2 09:42:38 UTC 2021. The request was accepted on Sat Jan 2 09:42:38 UTC 2021 or within a second ! I checked https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR_submission_guidelines#Requests which states > Orphan requests will be granted after two weeks if the current > maintainer did not react. The immediate acceptance has made it impossible for the maintainer / co-maintainers to respond. Is the wiki incorrect wrt policy for orphan requests ? If so, where is the correct policy described ?
