Hi, the package <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=34179> has been out-of-date for a while, and the maintainers respond neither to e-mail nor to messages left on AUR. Could you please orphan the package? Take care, Peter

Hello, Could gmpy http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=20377 please be deleted? It has not been updated in 2 years, and does not build.

[aur-general] python/python2/python3 changes
by Rémy Oudompheng 09 Oct '10

09 Oct '10

Hello, Since python 2.7 in testing is now /usr/bin/python2 but not /usr/bin/python, most AUR packages using python should be changed to use /usr/bin/python2 and depend on python2 instead of python unless they use Python 3. Idon't think this has been mentioned explicitly on this mailing-list before. This change should leave packages compatible with the python package in extra. Any additional comments? -- Rémy.

An ABS-like tree (perhaps kept in a Darcs > repo for extra points :-) and a place to upload binary packages and the repo > DB to. I support that idea. I would really like to host that on the same server as [community] and [multilib] repos, if the total size of the repositories is not too big, but I fear it would be several gigabytes. I imagine: - keeping ghc + several basic modules in extra/community for bootstrapping - a darcs repo one for the scripts * a script that builds packages (possibly inspired by devtools, for example an analogue of archbuild taking multiple arguments) * a script handling rebuilds (build all reverse dependencies of something in the right order) possibly just an option to the previous script * a script that updates a given collection of PKGBUILDs by calling cabal2arch * a script that moves built packages to the repositories (like commitpkg in devtools) - a darcs repo for the PKGBUILDs * one dir per package, and subdirs $package/trunk, $package/repo (holding the current WIP version of the PKGBUILD and one corresponding to the binary package in repo) * people are supposed to do only a partial checkout of the darcs repo, I know Git can do that, but that said, a full working copy is only a few thousand files. Is darcs as efficient as Git for storage ? I expect the transfer size for a full cloning to be less than 5MB. Leaving xmonad and its dependencies in the main repos in probably fine. -- Rémy

[aur-general] Please remove the qemu package on AUR
by Cyker Way 08 Oct '10

08 Oct '10

Deeply sorry but I forgot to rename it before uploading it to AUR. I've loaded another one called qemu-6828 which was intended. So please remove the old one, though I've disowned it. BTW, is there any convenient way for a maintainer to remove his package by himself, err, in case of a mistake... -- Cyker Way Email:cykerway@gmail.com <Email%3Acykerway(a)gmail.com>
