[aur-general] Unblacklisting of Package
by David J. Haines 07 Dec '11

07 Dec '11

Hi there again. In an attempt to bring the yeganesh package into the present day, I found that the newest version requires Haskell's "unix" package. I built it with cabal2arch and tried to upload the result to the AUR, but it tells me that "haskell-unix is on the package blacklist." Despite what it indicates, it is not available in the repos, AFAICT. I know that Haskell and the AUR have an uneasy relationship, but I'm hoping that y'all will un-blacklist this as it is a build dependency of a moderately popular tiling WM launcher. Thanks, David J. Haines dhaines(a)gmail.com

Hi there. I'm the maintainer of the yeganesh-patched package, and I just adopted the yeganesh package as well. Would someone please delete the -patched variant? Thanks, David J. Haines dhaines(a)gmail.com

[aur-general] google-talkplugin
by Dominik Mayer 06 Dec '11

Hey all, I'm the maintainer of google-talkplugin. For one month there has been a new PKGBUILD called google-talkplugin-amd64 which is actually doing the exact same thing as the google-talkplugin PKGBUILD. It downloads the deb package and extracts it. But because it's called "amd64" people think that the other one is only for 32 bit systems. In the very first days of the package, Ionut sent a mail to me and the maintainer of a similar package, writing that the AUR should not have two identical packages. I think this still applies. I tried to contact the maintainer of the new package but he doesn't seem to understand that the packages are identical. He says that many of the 32 bit libraries in google-talkplugin are not needed (see the comments at https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=53971) I added them because they are either needed according to the original deb file or according to other users that said the plugin wouldn't work without them. The other maintainer can't tell me which of the libraries he thinks are unnecessary so I can't remove them. Cheers, Dominik

I am the current owner of zterm-dev, and I have been notified that zterm is no longer available on the net, so there's no longer need to keep it. -- Li Ian-Xue http://b4283.ath.cx

[aur-general] 2 recommendations needed for installing Arch Linux
by Ralf Mardorf 06 Dec '11

06 Dec '11

Hi :) I'm new to the list. Sorry that my mail is formatted in HTML. When I tied to restore the distro I used before from a backup for the billionth time, I made a mistake and accidentally deleted originals and backups from ext4 partitions. Currently I'm even unable to boot any from my other Linux installs, so I'm using a Parted Magic live CD, resp. the web mailing thingy from my provider. I'll switch to Arch Linux because for my needs, audio productions, it could be easier to keep it stable than it is for other distros. I've got two questions. 1. What is a safe FS, that can be recovered? Ext4 seemingly isn't such a FS. The FS also should be usable for audio productions. Security regarding to multiple user usage, web access, server usage etc. are unimportant for a DAW. 2. For my main Linux I always prefer to use 64-bit architecture, but 32-bit architecture compatibility is needed. Is there something I should take care about when installing Arch Linux? Cheers! Ralf
