[aur-general] multilib
by Nathan O 07 Sep '10

07 Sep '10

I installed the x86_64 version of Arch, and I was looking at the wiki on running 32-bit apps in a 64-bit environment which seems what the multilib project/repo does. Though If I try and do pacman -S gcc-multilib gcc-libs-multilib binutils-multilib libtool-multilib lib32-glibc. Pacman gives me that binutils and binutils-multilib conflict. Do I let multilib's version replace it? Mainly I want to build i686/x86_64 packages and make sure they work fine on both architectures as well, maybe with running a few 32-bit only applications if I come across them. Thanks

Hello, the package rabbitmq is quite old in AUR. The current Maintainer p2k does not answer on mails or comments. I have an up2date rabbitmq PKGBUILD here with some fixes (rabbitmq as system user instead of a normal user). Can i become maintainer permissions on this package?

I lost all the data on my laptop to an unclean shutdown yesterday. I'm afraid I can't maintain my packages until I've completed recovering what I can (if anything) and I'm done setting up a new system.

[aur-general] Please delete line6usb
by Emmanuel Gras 07 Sep '10

Please delete line6usb (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=15333) since it's now in the mainstream kernel (/lib/modules/2.6.35-ARCH/kernel/drivers/staging/line6/line6usb.ko). I created a PKGBUILD for the svn version of the driver (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=40604) Cheers, Emman

[aur-general] Question about patches in [community]
by Brad Fanella 07 Sep '10

07 Sep '10

Hi everyone, I have a few popular packages I would be interested in moving to and maintaining in [community]. However, I recall reading somewhere that AUR software that includes a patch is typically not accepted in community until the upstream developers fix/merge the patches into the software and release it. Is this correct, or am I being misled? Thanks, Brad

[aur-general] deleted package?
by Hervé Cauwelier 06 Sep '10

06 Sep '10

Hi, I found a flashplugin package for x86_64 this morning that seemed more up-to-date than the last one maintained in community. But by the time I installed it, it disappeared from AUR. http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=32539 I didn't see any deletion request on the list. Has any TU taken the initiative to delete it? (I can't use the multilib package because nspluginwrapper is too unstable.) -- Hervé Cauwelier
