[aur-general] Is dev.archlinux.org browser dependent?
by Stefan Husmann 21 Sep '09

21 Sep '09

Hello TUs, I finally managed to enter dev.archlinux.org to adopt some packages in [community]. I had to install opera to do so. I tried firefox, conkeror and midori, but all of them did not give me a login form but a message about an untrusted site. So my question is: Are there any settings I have to apply (using about:config or the like)? I would like to get rid of opera if I can. Hints? Regards Stefan

by JM 19 Sep '09

19 Sep '09

Hello, I am considering orphaning gigolo [1] for I no longer use it. It has 41 votes in aur so I though perhaps someone would like to take it to community? Regards, JM [1] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=24252

[aur-general] [Deletion Request] kbluetooth4-svn
by Panos Filip 19 Sep '09

19 Sep '09

Hello to everyone ! I am Flamelab on AUR, and I orphaned kbluetooth4-svn, since the new one's (kdebluetooth-svn) and (kdebluetooth-devel) seem to work better than my own (they provide the same upstream program), and their maintainer seems to be more interested on them. Please, can someone delete my own ;)

That's a great thing - I now know I have a lot to fix :) > And yes, those duplicates are real dupes in community Dupes come mostly from the any-arch transition. In fact I had looked around a bit, but couldn't find some king of guide - what exactly should we untag on the repo to remove a specific architecture?

Hey, please delete AUR package "mumble-svn" because the Mumble project has since switched to GIT and the SVN is unmaintained. http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=23369 -- Sven-Hendrik

[aur-general] Adding a .deb packaged application to the AUR
by Jeff Horelick 18 Sep '09

18 Sep '09

Hello Listmates, I have a package here i'd really like to add to the AUR. The problem is that its packaged in a .deb. How would i go about packaging this for Arch? Feel free to just point at: "Look at this other package" or "Read this wiki page". In case some of you guys don't know the formmat that a .deb is in: An ar archive, inside there are 2 tarballs, one called control.tar.gz which for our purposes can be mostly ignored and one called data.tar.gz which has the actual application files laid out in the directory structure of the system similar to a Arch final binary package. (usr/bin/stuff, usr/share/stuff and so on). Or would it be easier for me to just setup a GitHub or BitBucket account, drop all the source files on there and simply make a hg or git package? (For the record and all, it's not my project, but it is GPLv2 so....)
