[aur-general] Delete packages tbe and the_butterfly_effect
by Federico Chiacchiaretta 23 Jun '10

23 Jun '10

Hi all, tbe [1] and the_butterfly_effect [2] are duplicates of thebutterflyeffect [3], which is the first of three uploaded. Yesterday [3] has been updated at the latest version and it's actively maintained, so I'm asking for removal of [1] and [2]. I also suggested maintainer of [1] and [2] to ask for removal of their packages (see comments), they agreed but no request has been made until now.

[aur-general] poppler soname bump
by Jan de Groot 22 Jun '10

22 Jun '10

The poppler/poppler-glib update to 0.14 includes a soname bump for poppler and poppler-glib. Packages depending on these libraries should be rebuilt. I already did all packages in extra, some packages in community still need an update. To track the rebuild, a todo list was created: http://www.archlinux.org/todo/38/ Please rebuild these packages in community-testing and flag them as complete after that.

[aur-general] [Delete] libprojectm-qt
by h2oz7v 22 Jun '10

22 Jun '10

The following packages are exactly the same except for the slight name variation. projectm-qt <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=16242> libprojectm-qt <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=33049> For consistency with the other projectM packages on AUR, I think the orphaned *libprojectm-qt* should be deleted to avoid confusion.

[aur-general] Golang in AUR
by Stephen Weinberg 21 Jun '10

21 Jun '10

The aur has far too many versions of go (http://golang.org) Many of them are out of date. I went though and tried to find as many as I could. I believe most of these should be deleted. go-google-mercurial http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=31969 I think this one should be deleted. go is in community and this does not have provides/conflicts with that package. golang http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=31912 Very old. I am not even sure if it works. It is also missing provides/conflicts. go-hg http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=33695 Much better! Missing provides but has conflicts. PKGBUILD looks sound. go-lang-hg http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=31913 This one is the best. It does not have any problems. It looks like it is mostly a copy of the one from abs except it fetches the tip instead of release. It also has provides/conflicts. go-lang-hg has only one flaw, the name. I think it should be named go-hg since it is the hg of a package in community. If I am wrong on any of this, let me know. I am new to packaging and I have only made three of them. I am still learning :-). -- Stephen
