[aur-general] Merge/Removal request
by Massimiliano Torromeo 03 Sep '11

03 Sep '11

Hi, I switched my project repository from svn to git a while ago and I just uploaded a new PKGBUILD to the AUR. I would like to remove sqlantaresia-svn [1] and keep sqlantaresia-git [2] maybe merging the votes if possible. Thanks!

[aur-general] wtf? tcp_wrappers back in [community]?
by Dave Reisner 02 Sep '11

02 Sep '11

Sergej, We spent a week rebuilding packages to get tcp_wrappers out of [core] and out of the repos. Now I see that you've moved it back into [community]. What the hell? Were you going to start recompiling packages against tcp_wrappers and adding it back as a dep? Not acceptable. We all made this decision as a team, so I'm not sure why you're trying to fight us. I'm db-remove'ing this (again) and putting it back where it belongs. Regards, Dave

[aur-general] Deletion request - achron-alpha
by Maxime Wack 02 Sep '11

02 Sep '11

Hi TUs ! Since the Achron game is out, the achron-alpha [1] package is obsolete (people having access to the alpha also have access to the complete version), and has even been orphaned. I have created a package for the complete version [2] which follows the accepted rules when dealing with a commercial game. Thanks !

[aur-general] Delete firefox-extension-firebug-stable
by speps 01 Sep '11

01 Sep '11

As discussed in a previous forgotten thread [1] consider to remove, again firefox-extension-firebug-stable [2], replaced by a simpler firefox-firebug [3], updated to work with latest ff 6.0.1 Votes could be merged. The main reason is a better naming consistency, since firefox-extension-firebug-stable makes little sense and other extensions in [community] follows the same convention (firefox-adblock-plus, firefox-noscript). firefox-extension-firebug-svn [4] can be also, probably, deleted (unmaintained, latest update on 2008) [1] http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-general/2011-August/015462.html Thomas S Hatch, who preferred to keep the old one, did not answer any more, maybe away [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=44809 [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=52050 [4] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=17554 P.S. I opted for a new thread since is September 1 here Tnx - speps -

[aur-general] cinelerra-transitions
by Cédric Girard 01 Sep '11

01 Sep '11

cinelerra-transitions [1] is orphaned. Its original maintainer was the upstream owner. The source and website is dead. As it claims to be "Transitions for cinelerra mostly from akirad and OpenShot", I've uploaded a PKGBUILD cinelerra-swtc [2] containing the akirad transitions. I think cinelerra-transitions should be deleted as it is no more usable. I don't know if it makes sense to merge votes with cinelerra-swtc as it is only a subset of cinelerra-transitions.

[aur-general] TU Resignation
by Loui Chang 01 Sep '11

01 Sep '11

Hello everyone! I haven't been very involved with the AUR for a long while, and I don't really see that changing much. Since I only have a few packages I think it's time for me to resign as a TU. I may still throw a few patches around if I find the time. I've asked Lukas Fleischer to assume my duty of adding new TUs. It was a pleasure to work with you folks. See you around! My former packages which I've recently disowned: esmtp libesmtp (dependency of balsa, collectd, and esmtp) mhwaveedit oldstand-font tig Cheers.

[aur-general] uqm-new to replace uqm
by Jookia 31 Aug '11

31 Aug '11

The latest uqm packages are out of date and lack a launcher[1][2], so I've updated the package to 0.7.0 and added a launcher, and uploaded it as uqm-new[3] to AUR. Could somebody put this on the track to replace the mainline uqm package (after reviews, of course)? [1] https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/i686/uqm/ [2] https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/uqm/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=51672
