[aur-general] poppler rebuilds will soon move - one buggy pkg in Community
by Andreas Radke 05 Feb '11

05 Feb '11

Just a small note that we will move poppler rebuilds right after the MySQL move. So far I only know of one broken pkg in community where a fix is available: epdfview - https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/22734. Can somebody with community access test it and fix the bug? -Andy

[aur-general] Unactive user
by François Boulogne 05 Feb '11

05 Feb '11

Hello, I found that the package [1] is out of date and in the mean time, I realized the maintainer is not really active. I sent him an email several days ago, no answer. I think some packages should be removed, especially beta ones, or packages like [2] (the title does not respect the aur policy) Another point: [3] is marked as a dev package (which is the last stable version) and [4] is titled as a stable version which is out of date. Well, many things should be cleaned up. Cheers.

Please delete perl-archlinux-messages. I renamed the module from Archlinux::Messages to Archlinux::Term and uploaded a new package (perl-archlinux-term). Here is the link to the old perl-archlinux-messages: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=36397 -- -Justin

by Adam Weiss 04 Feb '11

04 Feb '11

Hey all, I've been lurking for quite a while and recently decided to take the plunge and maintain a couple packages. Please give me some feedback on them since I probably missed some things: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=34191 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=45976 Also, this is the first time I've tried posting from Gmail, so let me know if something looks funny. Thanks, -Adam

[aur-general] lib32-portaudio forgotten... :'(
by rafael ff1 04 Feb '11

04 Feb '11

Hi all, I need *lib32-portaudio* package complying to Multilib standards in order to install PCSX2 emulator (ex: *pcsx2-svn*), but the maintainer seems to be missing, busy, in outer space or whatever and doesn't reply requests in comments or emails. And I already have the PKGBUILD ready for it! So, can someone please make this package *orphan* so I can adopt it and fix the PKGBUILD to Multilib standards? Thanks in advance!

Re: [aur-general] Add pyopencl to [community]

It's all good but one thing: there either needs to be a provision for pyopencl or inclusion of the upstream module name in the description, so that the package naming doesn't hamper searches and common knowledge (i.e people would know 'pyopencl' only). I see the same issue with pyqt. Didn't we already have some discussion about the module naming convention during the major python transition?

[aur-general] Add pyopencl to [community]
by Stéphane Gaudreault 03 Feb '11

03 Feb '11

Dear Tus, I would like to add pyopencl [1] to [community]. I maintain this package in AUR and it has 14 votes. Pyopencl depends, among other, on libcl (OpenCL library, provided by either nvidia-utils or amdstream [2]) and a package that provides OpenCL C/C++ headers. Here is my plan : * Add pyopencl to [community] (I will use a better name, something like python2-pyopencl) * Tidy up and add opencl-headers [3] (66 votes) to [community] [4]. * Leave amdstream in AUR The opencl-headers package provides headers from the Khronos group. It could also be possible to use a different source to get *exactly* the same headers (Nvidia for example). Any comment or objections in adding these packages to the [community] repository? Stéphane [1] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=31416 [2] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=21933 [3] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=35367 [4] I contacted hsyl20 (maintainer of opencl-headers). He has no objection if I take his package.

[aur-general] Deletion request
by Martin Peres 03 Feb '11

03 Feb '11

Hi, I've just spent a couple of minutes looking at the orphan packages on AUR and some of them should be deleted as their previous maintainers said they are useless but forgot to send the deletion request on the ML: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=35080 qtcreator-cpphelper-plugin-git https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=39744 aften-svn https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=28626 blender-simphys https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=19607 texi2html-cvs This one is strange: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=33092 gold-cvs Heftig, why do you want to keep this package for reference? Any news about the "Deletion request" button in the AUR website? By the time it is implemented, it would be cool to add a warning when people press the orphan button that they may want to send a mail to this ML for deletion. Martin
