[aur-general] Drop LLVM from [community]
by Ranguvar 31 Oct '09

31 Oct '09

Hello, The package 'llvm' is an orphaned [communuity] package. I'd like to request that it me moved to the AUR so I can maintain it (I have an update and overhaul ready) and I can also create a 'clang' package for it. (split package for llvm AND clang) Then it can be adopted by a TU if they want to bring it back into [community]. Thanks :)

[aur-general] Status of slimserver
by Eric Bélanger 31 Oct '09

31 Oct '09

Hi, Is there anyone interested in maintaining slimserver? It's currently orphaned, out-of-date and doesn't even install (missing perl-compress-zlib depends FS#16490). If no one wants it, we could solve all these problems by moving it to AUR. Eric

[aur-general] chromium-ffmpeg-codecs
by Ray Rashif 30 Oct '09

I can't even remember the name of the package, but it has codecs and ffmpeg as part of its name. Now, _why_ was it removed alongside the chromium packages? It was unrelated to the browser package naming issue. I'm just curious to know whether it was a mistake or a decision based upon a certain resolution.

Do split packages work in the AUR? Normal upload process? Thanks.

[aur-general] Which package for cuda
by Karol Babioch 29 Oct '09

29 Oct '09

Hi, I need cuda for some of my applications, and just realized that nvidia has outsourced the cuda driver to another package. I could easily download this driver and install it, however it would be great, if I could use aur. I have seen some packages containing "cuda" in the name, but the package "cuda" just seems to be a meta package, which depends on cuda-toolkit and cuda-sdk, which I don't need at all. So is there any package I can install just to gain the possibility to use cuda, but not to install the sdk (nor the toolkit)? -- Best regards, Karol Babioch <karol(a)babioch.de>

I was the maintainer of juploadr. It hasn't been updated in more than 2 years, and now it's broken. I'd like to request deletion. Carl Mueller

[aur-general] Packaging LLVM
by Ranguvar 29 Oct '09

29 Oct '09

Hello, I see that the package 'llvm' is in [community], is orphaned, and is out-of-date. I've spent considerable time working on packaging LLVM and its add-ons, the Clang C-family compiler front-end and the GCC frontend. Therefore, I'd like to help package LLVM. I already wrote a PKGBUILD for v2.6 of LLVM (the package we have is v2.5), and it also has a lot of fixes and niceties. I'd like to discuss how best to proceed with LLVM -- whether Clang should be included in the llvm package or as an alternate package of LLVM and Clang, 'llvm-clang', stuff like that. In fact, what may work best is if llvm could be dropped into the AUR, where I will then adopt it and update it (and potentially add 'llvm-clang' and such as is decided), and then if a TU wants it in [community] (which would make sense), it can be adopted by a TU. Thanks! Devin Cofer, aka Ranguvar
