[aur-general] Purge of packages orphaned, out-of-date, and last updated before 2017
by Daniel M. Capella 27 Jan '19

27 Jan '19

Based on the loosely defined "cleanup criteria"[], we're overdue for a little purge. The candidates can be found here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/?O=0&SeB=nd&K=&outdated=on&SB=l&SO=a&PP=… https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/?O=250&SeB=nd&outdated=on&SB=l&SO=a&PP=2… Please run `aurphan -a` to see if you have any orphaned AUR packages installed, and do everyone a favor by adopting them. If there are no objections, it will be done this weekend. A reply will be sent for record-keeping with the list of packages prior to deletion.

[aur-general] [tu-bylaws] [PATCH] add README describing how to update the bylaws
by Eli Schwartz 22 Jan '19

22 Jan '19

Signed-off-by: Eli Schwartz <eschwartz(a)archlinux.org> --- This is not an amendment to the bylaws themselves, and as such does not require any sort of vote. But I think this is rather useful to have, as there is currently not a case of perfect clarity for the administrivium involved in processing updates. As development of the bylaws happens on this list, I'm sending it in here. Hope this change makes sense to all.

[aur-general] What happened to wine-gaming-nine?
by Alex Smith 22 Jan '19

22 Jan '19

I am curious as to what happened to the AUR package named "wine-gaming- nine". Did the account behind it get banned? Or was it simply deleted because it was out of date.
