Good day, Please find attached the updated disklow PKGBUILD. Notable changes: source() tarball now on source server where it belongs, added a landing page for url(), and using sha256sums() for checksumming. Let me know if this latest version is passing the quality bar for introduction to AUR. Many thanks, Holger

I apologize for sending a personal email regarding packages I wish to adopt. I didn't read the OP close enough. I am willing to adopt * python-gitchangelog * craft-git My AUR username is the same as my email, WSDMatty.

[aur-general] Deletion request for ipython
by pavel.finkelshtein＠gmail.com 30 Aug '19

Hi Antonio, hi community You've requested deletion of ipython-7 package, mainaned by me with 2 comments: 1. Duplicate of python-prompt_toolkit 2. absurd commit messages While both of them are true I would like to comment on both: 1. Yes, it's duplicate, but it wasn't at a time of publishing. I'll tell you more: community was long behind AUR at that moment because it needs more time to go from upstream to community and less time from upstream to AUR. If you think that it's not the case — then we can safely delete it 2. Comments are absolutely random, but… I just think that when there are no important changes in repository, just version bumps then no comment can make sense. Of course I'm absolutely ready to rewrite history to make them just normal boring comments. -- Regrads, Pasha

[aur-general] Spotify paying attention to requests for redistribution permission
by Chris Billington 28 Aug '19

28 Aug '19

Hi all, It looks like Spotify had paid some small amount of attention to the request that they change their license to allow redistribution, or that they give permission to redistribute to specific Linux distros, which is the main thing blocking Spotify from being in the repos instead of on the AUR. Today they have marked the issue as "new" and left a note saying they are assessing its popularity by waiting for people to vote for it. It's not clear how much of an effect it will have, but if you are interested you can vote for the issue here: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Live-Ideas/Linux-Add-Spotify-to-the-offici… -Chris
