I agree that it's a bit of a hack, but in my mind it's a bit more than a way to handle manually installed libraries. It's absolutely *not* something that can be substituted by archlinux packages, instead it's solving the following problems: - distribution-independent discoverability of available packages, useful during configuration steps of building - handling of different flavours of the same library, byte-compiled vs native, threaded vs. non-threaded, used for linking vs used in the REPL, ... - used by OASIS and probably other build tools So I'm convinced that *both* findlib and arch packages is the way to go. > So, >> On 20/09/10 10:16, Simon Legner wrote: >>> do we really need three packages of the OCaml library ocamlgraph [1]? >> > certainly not three as I didn't spot any differences between ocamlgraph and > ocaml-ocamlgraph, but I'd suggest to keep mine so that people can choose what > they want and that Magnus takes over the ocamlgraph package, which is > currently orphan. No, let's delete 'ocamlgraph' and possibly keep both the other packages. /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe

[aur-general] Fwd: Extra package [jack] marked out-of-date
by Ray Rashif 27 Sep '10

27 Sep '10

Hi all Forwarding to the AUR list because it seems my reply did not reach the user (Christoph Pegel aka "rio"); jack was marked out-of-date again. Please read below and don't do this for a third time. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Ray Rashif <schiv(a)archlinux.org> Date: 23 September 2010 03:53 Subject: Re: Extra package [jack] marked out-of-date To: rio(a)eta-ori.net Hi JACK2 is not going to replace JACK1 anytime soon. There has been at least one discussion regarding this on the Linux Audio User and/or Developer mailing lists, where Paul Davis, one of the primary developers/contributors, discourage distributions to make this transition (eyes were on those that actually did it). I do not recall the topic URI to cite, but anyone curious can get in touch with upstream to verify. Both branches have functioning APIs - the JACK1 API is tried and tested. JACK2 is an improvement and an alternative for SMP machines, but not a replacement. However, thanks for the nudge. I have been wanting to add a "jack2" to the repos but never got to it. Expect it in [community].

[aur-general] os-prober ownership
by revan＠no-log.org 27 Sep '10

27 Sep '10

http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=35572 os-prober seems to have been abandonned...but the maintainer won't answer his/her email...(for more than a month now) Can someone make this package orphan so someone else can replace the PKGBUILD with another one (1.39 instead of 1.38). Thanks

[aur-general] Duplication: ocamlgraph
by Simon Legner 27 Sep '10

27 Sep '10

Hi all, do we really need three packages of the OCaml library ocamlgraph [1]? The packages are all up-to-date, but maintained by three different users. The correctest one according to the specified dependencies IMHO is ocamlgraph-withoutfindlib [2], which also has the minimal code for building the package. What do you think? Regards, Simon (simon04) [1] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?O=0&K=ocamlgraph&do_Search=Go [2] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=31755

[aur-general] Please disown haskell-yesod
by Peter Simons 26 Sep '10

26 Sep '10

Hi, the yesod package at <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=35370> is out-of-date. It has been marked out-of-date for quite a while, but unfortunately the Arch-Haskell team does not respond. Please disown the package so that I can take over maintenance and update it to the latest available version of yesod. Take care, Peter

[aur-general] Please delete udunits2
by Kaiting Chen 26 Sep '10

26 Sep '10

Hi, I'm maintaining both udunits and udunits2 right now. udunits2 apparently contains a compatibility library for udunits and therefore I have merged the two packages together. I believe udunits2 should be removed now. Just wondering if it would be meaningful to put 'replaces' or 'provides' in the new PKGBUILD since no packages in the AUR depend on udunits2.

[aur-general] chromium-beta and related mess
by Jericho Draken 26 Sep '10

26 Sep '10

As the email suggests, I am JerichoKru, the same one that sparked Det's...interesting conversation that took place here. Though I'd rather let that die off and get to the actual issue. chromium-beta has been giving me issue after issue. Because of this, I have not uploaded it yet. 1.) I had figured that 6.0.496.0 would be the beta because it is the latest of the v6's and the v7's are the in dev tree. Det listed what is now the latest stable as the beta...which is obviously not right. 2.) This version apparently doesn't need/incompatible with the gyp patch listed. It stated that the patch was filled with "garbage". 3.) Skipping the patch causes a build error farther down in the compile process. Unfortunately, I forgot to save the output. I'll try again tomorrow as it is 11PM in my timezone. Any input for this would be helpful. As for clamav, it is updated and should work (it worked on my machine, anyway). On a somewhat related note: I had typed a rather long response to Det's...rant but, I tried to sent it with my other email and thus didn't get posted. When thinking about it, that reply would have just fed to the fire. ----- ...for some reason claws-mail can't send emails with hotmail...

[aur-general] Please delete kdegraphics-libs-svn
by Dany Martineau 26 Sep '10

26 Sep '10

Hi! As i've created a PKGBUILD for digikam2 (svn version), i needed new libkexiv2 and libkcraw version from trunk. First, l've created kdegraphics-libs-svn (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=41118) but i replaced it with a better solution. I do not need kdegraphics-libs-svn anymore, so can someone delete it please? Thanks!! -- Dany Martineau Enseignant en mathématiques École secondaire du Harfang 4e et 5e secondaire http://danym.org CSSMI
