What's the issue with having 2.0.10 in unsupported? It's not in *-testing either, so there was no reason for this? regards mar77i

[aur-general] Please delete lib32-printproto
by merp boop 31 Jan '11

31 Jan '11

Unless you all see a better reason, I think it should be deleted. It would be pulling the same files as the x86_64 version (as they're both from "any"), so any package in reference to this one should use printproto instead, even if the package is a 32-bit binary blob on a 64-bit system. -Max

[aur-general] Temporary Inactivity
by Jonathan Conder 31 Jan '11

31 Jan '11

Hi everyone, I'm off to the beach again and won't be back until Monday. This time there is something on my todo list, which is to move the mythplugins-* packages from community-testing into community once libmysqlclient is updated. If this happens while I'm away it would be great if someone could do that for me. If not, it doesn't matter that much because the only package it will break is mythplugins-mythzoneminder, which I doubt is used by many people. Thanks, Jonathan

[aur-general] Delete AUR Package Request
by Bernardo Barros 31 Jan '11

31 Jan '11

Please delete the following packages. Reason: I changed their pkgnames to more appropriate. I wasn't aware of fonts convention at the time. For the supercollider plugin I omitted "ugen", since all 'plugins' in supercollider parlance are 'UGens'. supercollider-dfm1ugen http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=45930 concreta-font-ttf http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=44856 controla-font-ttf http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=44854 electronica-font-ttf http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=44857 -- The New Ones (do not delete!): supercollider-dfm1 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=45931 ttf-acoustica http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=44905 ttf-concreta http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=44906 ttf-controla http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=44907 ttf-electronica http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=44908

[aur-general] TU Application - Seblu
by Seblu 30 Jan '11

30 Jan '11

Hello, Tonight I decided to propose me as TU. My sponsor is Peter Lewis. My name is Sebastien Lutttringer, i'm a 26 years old french system and network engineer who lives in Paris. I'm gradued from EPITA a french computer school and i work in a private company for 4 years. My day to day job is done on Linux Debian and 99% of our servers are on Debian. We work mainly with open technologies and we love challenges with technology that we control/understand. As far as i recall, my first meet with linux, was in 2001/2002 (i don't remember exactly) with slackware and later with debian woody, it was just some test (not my main system) In 2005, i choose my grad school, in another for its hard Unix spirit. I wanted to become a unix power user. So, 2005 was my switching year to linux. I tested some distro and i choose debian as desktop station. In 2007, i changed my main distro to gentoo until 2010 (and my new laptop) where i switched to Arch. I never really took the time to get involved to my distro and since a long time i want it. Arch philosophy and simplicity, remember me slackware and makes me want to take the plunge. Regarding my skills I use a lot of linux technology in my work to design solutions to our problems (network operator, file transfer platform, streaming/cdn) or to maintain our critical systems. I also have skill in coding in C/C++, Python, Perl, lua, php, shell and some others. Regarding to arch, i maintain packages in AUR and fill bug report. I also plan to propose some patch in some times. As a TU, i would start by maintaining packages i use and which are not in community. To start i think to: arptables awesome conntrack-tools ebtables ferm fstrim lsscsi mtr-cli nload opera scsiadd ulogd vconfig After, I hope have enough time to more contribute to the distro and perhaps become a dev. Maybe working on pacman i've some ideas of improvment. Regards, -- Sébastien Luttringer www.seblu.net
