[aur-general] TU resignation
by Bartłomiej Piotrowski 26 Jan '18

26 Jan '18

Hi everyone, for a long time I've been both a developer and TU. As a trusted user I wasn't really involved with anything beyond looking for people that could be a good fit to Arch. With recent additions to the team, I'm sure you can keep the ball rolling on your own. Therefore I'm resigning from my TU position and remain "just" a grumpy developer. Bartłomiej

[aur-general] Special Removal of an Inactive TU: speps
by Balló György 21 Jan '18

21 Jan '18

According to the Trusted User Bylaws[1], we have to vote about the removal of an inactive TU, speps. So I'm starting a discussion period of 3 days. 1. His last commit in the [community] repository: 2017-01-03 2. He doesn't maintain any packages in AUR. 3. His last message to aur-general mailing list: 2014-03-02 4. Most of his packages were adopted by dvzrv. speps, thank you for your work on making Arch Linux better. I hope that once we'll see you again!

[aur-general] rewrite git history
by Sandor Nagy 20 Jan '18

20 Jan '18

Hi, I did git commit and git push into AUR from a PC at my workplace using company email address accidentally, but it is a policy at our company, that email address must not to be public. Can I clean that anyway? I have set my public email address and tried git commit --amend --reset-author using the right email but hook declined. If a TU can rewrite the git history, please write me a private email message.

by Panayotis Katsaloulis 18 Jan '18

18 Jan '18

Hello people Newbie here in Arch Linux. I have a question, which I didn't find in the documentation. What is the proposed way to inform about an AUR build file containing errors? Especially if I e-mailed the maintainer with no response? Thank you!

[aur-general] orphaned packages
by Joseph Carta 17 Jan '18

17 Jan '18

Hi all. There are two packages that were just recently orphaned, dvdstyler, and one of its dependencies, wxsvg. I would be willing to adopt these packages if no one else does, but I'm not a programmer and would rather not. I'm pretty sure that dvdstyler is the only application of it's kind for linux, so I'm assuming it's useful to many. Is anyone willing to adopt these packages? Are there alternatives for dvd menu creation (gui) that I'm not aware of?

[aur-general] Package not updating on AUR
by Kyle McNally 15 Jan '18

15 Jan '18

Hello, I recently became the co-maintainer of the plex-sub-zero package [1]. I pushed to it's repo, but the version isn't being updated on the AUR. Should the AUR update when I push, or does the maintainer need to do anything? If you check out the PKGBUILD, it shows the updated file.
