[aur-general] Delete package "ogrenewt-cvs"
by Sven-Hendrik Haase 15 Jul '09

15 Jul '09

Hey, please delete package "ogrenewt-cvs" in AUR as its purpose has been lost long ago when Ogre switched to SVN. Right now, OgreNewt isn't even being maintained in the Ogre SVN and now uses its own hosting. Additionally, the "OgreNewt" AUR package already takes care of the stable version. -- Sven-Hendrik

[aur-general] Please orphan "irrklang"
by Sven-Hendrik Haase 15 Jul '09

15 Jul '09

Hey, I want to take over the "irrklang" package in AUR. It hasn't been updated for over a year and the PKGBUILD is lacking. Please orphan it as I'm once again willing to embrace it like it was my long lost child. -- Sven-Hendrik

[aur-general] CVS freeze and move to SVN/official tools
by Aaron Griffin 15 Jul '09

15 Jul '09

Hey guys, I'd like to put a freeze on community CVS later today. Sadly, CVS doesn't respect files set to RO, so there's not too much I can do server-side. I'm going to do the SVN conversion in approx 8 hours or so, maybe sooner, if I get some time while at work. In the meantime, this document should explain the usage of the offical tools and svn: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:HOWTO_Be_A_Packager Let me know if there are any questions. Sorry for the long delay on this one. Cheers, Aaron

[aur-general] PKGBUILD for ttf-tahoma is up for grabs
by Thayer Williams 15 Jul '09

15 Jul '09

To anyone interested, attached is a partially completed PKGBUILD and .install file for making a ttf-tahoma package. As some of you know, Tahoma was removed from the ttf-ms-fonts package back in February. I had intended to dump a PKGBUILD for the Tahoma font to the AUR, but haven't had the time to revise and test. With other package maintenance taking priority, I'm passing this on to whomever would like to see a Tahoma package in AUR. Cheers Thayer

[aur-general] Going Inactive
by Paulo Matias 15 Jul '09

15 Jul '09

Hi, I'm going inactive until July 26 due to travelling to a city in the Amazon Rain Forest where Internet connection is very unstable and is slower than dial-up. You may see me at IRC during this period, but I will hardly be able to update my system and maintain my packages. I'd thank very much if some TU could rebuild my packages for libjpeg. Please fell free to update any of my packages and to contact me in case of any issues. Best regards, Paulo Matias

[aur-general] Deletion request: bin32-aptana and aptana32
by Smartboy 14 Jul '09

14 Jul '09

bin32-aptana: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27833 aptana32: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=23400 These two packages aren't needed anymore, as the latest release of Aptana offers a 64-bit build, which is included in my Aptana package now (link: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=7147) So I request that the previous two packages be deleted. Thanks! Smartboy

[aur-general] Please orphan "newton-dynamics-beta"
by Sven-Hendrik Haase 14 Jul '09

14 Jul '09

I sent this request two days ago but it was obviously ignored or no TU has been available for two days, therefore I'm sending it again: Hey, please orphan AUR package "newton-dynamics-beta" so that I may adopt it. The original author doesn't seem to care and hasn't answered in over a week to mail and comments. Additionally, the package is out of date. -- Sven-Hendrik
