[aur-general] vim-git : removal request
by Xavier Chantry 26 Feb '10

26 Feb '10

To quote my comment on http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=31000 : vim now has an official hg repository, which obsoletes the unofficial git one. This means the git repo will be stopped at some point. And that I will delete this package in one week or so. I hope the 2 users can move to vim-hg :) http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=33422 Too bad, it was a cool AUR ID !

For those who want to check their xz packages before the next namcap released I have added the relevant patches to namcap 2.4: https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre/packages/namcap-2.4-1.1-i686.pkg.tar.xz https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre/packages/namcap-2.4-1.1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz And the PKGBUILD including the patches can be found at https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre/packages/namcap-2.4-1.1.src.tar.gz Greetings, Pierre -- Pierre Schmitz, https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre

[aur-general] Please orphan dnsmap
by Sébastien Duquette 26 Feb '10

26 Feb '10

Hi, Please orphan dnsmap, it has not been updated for I while and I plan to maintain it. I contacted the current owner (anoxia) and he says he doesn't have access to his account anymore. Thank you, Sébastien Response from anoxia : Hey, please feel free to update the PKGBUILD and make yourself the maintainer, I no longer have access to my AUR account and also have not been using Arch for the last 4 months, so it would be fine for you to adopt this package =) Thanks & Regards, Jinx

[aur-general] Removal Request (bin32-crossover-games)
by Sheepeh 25 Feb '10

25 Feb '10

I think this is the correct way to request a removal, but please tell me if it isn't! =) If you could please remove my package at http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=34985 (bin32-crossover-games) as it's now redundant; a fellow user informed me how to make a package install different deps depending on arch. The "crossover-games" package now handles both i686 and x86_64 equally well, so I'll just keep that one maintained. Apologies for making it redundant quite so quickly! -- Using Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/mail/

[aur-general] Please remove AUR package "syntensity-bzr"
by Sven-Hendrik Haase 24 Feb '10

24 Feb '10

Hey, please remove "syntensity-bzr" (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=33464) as it is completely outdated (repo changed, dvcs changed, build system changed) and is succeeded by "intensityengine-git" (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=33464) The name of "intensityengine" is also more fitting since "syntensity" is the project rather than the technical basis. -- Sven-Hendrik

[aur-general] Orphan request
by F B 24 Feb '10

24 Feb '10

Hi, I saw that the et-sdl-sound maintainer (http://aur.archlinux.org/account.php?Action=AccountInfo&ID=9985) doesn't update that package (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=9777) and doesn't respond to aur comments, other packages like enemy-territory need to be corrected (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=2063) I sent him an email the 3rd of this month without receiving a reponse. So I'm thinking he is inactive, many of his packages are outdated so, maybe, a good idea is to orphan all his packages, right? Thank you in advance.

I just create the package and it's already out-of-date because the cvs is no longer used.
