Hello Jagan > I would drop the qt4 package or at least make a separate package. Qt4 > packages have currently been switched to Qt5 snapshots or being dropped > in the official repositories so Qt4 is not even installable without > compiling it from the AUR. I agree that the Qt4 packages are shifting to Qt5 packages, but dropping the Qt4 package directly would be an overkill (I guess there would be someone out there, who prefers Qt4, and would like to have an adwaita-qt4 package), in my opinion. I will definitely separate out both the packages and would drop the Qt4 version when the Qt4 is removed from the AUR.

I would post a comment for the changes, and submit a deletion request in a couple of weeks. Thanks for the help. :D -- Thanks Regards Aniket Pradhan Byld Member ECE Undergrad | IIIT Delhi http://home.iiitd.edu.in/~aniket17133/

[aur-general] Change a base group to a simple group.
by Aniket Pradhan 24 May '19

24 May '19

Hello everyone. Just before I start, I am *NOT* referring to the base group in the main repos. I just adopted adwaita-qt[1] AUR package. It is a base-group which contains two sub-packages adwaita-qt4, and adwaita-qt5. Since, it is a base package, they share a common PKGBUILD, because of which adwaita-qt5's installation requires qt4 and vice-versa as well. I would like to split up this base-group and just make a regular group (KISS Principle) so that there's two separate PKGBUILDs and and resolve any issues as above. How can I achieve this? My every search leads me to the base group in the main repos, hence I had to come here. Moreover, what do you feel which method (one base-package or a regular group) would be suitable for such package? The only difference I can see is the dependency of qt4 and qt5. [1] = https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/adwaita-qt5/ -- Thanks Regards Aniket Pradhan Byld Member ECE Undergrad | IIIT Delhi http://home.iiitd.edu.in/~aniket17133/

Hi all, today one of my AUR package pages was spammed by a newly registered user: https://aur.archlinux.org/account/messytyagi The account was registered just before the spamming started and therefore this seems the only purpose of this account. Link to package page where spam can be found: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/standardnotes-desktop/ My request to AUR admins: Please delete the spamming account and remove the spam comments on my package page. Thanks! Cheers, Daniel

Re: [aur-general] New to makepkg, can someone have a look at my scripts?
by Roberto Rossini 14 May '19

Thanks for your input Stelios and Robin! I've updated the pkgbuilds with your suggestions. The file that I'm backing up in canu's pkgbuild, is a config file to configure canu to run in grid mode and/or limiting resource usage. Moving that file would require patching the source code, and I'm not up for that task (yet :P). Best regards Roberto R.
