[aur-general] Newbie question about updating package
by Franz Rogar 05 Apr '10

05 Apr '10

Hello, I've just finished patching fontforge-cvs PKGBUILD using libpng14 patch in stable. I'd upload it but I've an important question: If I send the package it will update the current one? It uses the same pkg name. Or do I need to do something prior? Main differences between this and the "out-of-date" flagged one in AUR are: - It's a "true" cvs package. Old one just pick a dated release. - It applies libpng14 patch from stable release so it can be built again now that libpng14 is the default version. - It enables type3 support, devicetables, python scripting and double precision. -- Thanks in anyway, Franz Rogar

[aur-general] [community] rebuilds
by Evangelos Foutras 05 Apr '10

05 Apr '10

Hi fellow TUs, I took the liberty to rebuild lots of packages that weren't mine. I hope I didn't mess anything up, but in case I did and you get a bug report regarding the new packages, feel free to re-assign it to me. I wouldn't expect someone else to cleanup my mess. Now, the list is almost finished, with around 13 [community] packages remaining. I'm afraid most of them don't build cleanly and probably require some troubleshooting and patching. Furthermore, there are 4 packages with sub-1% usage which I feel should just be removed. These are: dvbshout (0.04 %) mmap (0.04 %) netsurf (0.77 %) rusxmms (0.64 %) What do you think; shall we drop them? Cheers. :)

[aur-general] gnucash-svn, unsupported, out-of-date
by Gregory Gincley 04 Apr '10

04 Apr '10

Hi, Was wondering if this package could be disowned? I'm working on an updated PKGBUILD and would like to take over maintenance. Also an user/fan of this application, and it's worth having an up to date SVN package out there for all to use. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks! Greg

[aur-general] Please disown me-tv
by Jakob Gruber 04 Apr '10

04 Apr '10

Hi, me-tv has been outdated since forever with no response from the maintainer. It was last updated on July 8 2009. I wrote to this list a few months ago but the message seems to have bounced - in the meantime I created my own up to date package called me-tv-stable. Please disown me-tv so I can update the PKGBUILD. With an up to date me-tv, me-tv-stable will be unnecessary, please delete it. me-tv (to be disowned): http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=14652 me-tv-stable (to be deleted): http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=34876 Thanks, schuay
