Hi,

I have created a list of packages the could use a rebuild but for which there is no hurry. These include packages without the arch in their filename, packages containing a .FILELIST file, packages with man pages in /usr/man or uncompress man and info pages. See http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/User:Allan/Unimportant_Rebuild_List

Do people think this is useful and should I move it to the DeveloperWiki?

Allan

Good job.

And for "Packages that can be converted to arch=any" sometime ago I sended a list of tentative packages [#1]. Its old and some of listed packages [#2] are now "any"

[#1] http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-general/2009-July/005960.html [#2] http://archlinux.djgera.com.ar/misc/any.txt

I'm being lazy... any change you can easily generate an updated list for [core]/[extra]? Don't worry about it if it will be a hassle.

Allan

No problem, I can do a "light scan" making a difference between this list and list of current packages. I guess that doing again a "deep scan" don't make much sense,

Good Luck!

List updated [#1]

This is based on old list, deleting current converted packages and packages deleted from repos. No new packages are added because I didn't a deep/fine scan. For each repo.

If any have a time, the idea to do the deep scan is (what I remember was done manually in the past)

1) Download this db [#2]. 2) Keep with 0 size files from db. -> packages names. 3) Scan from previous result list if there are any ELF32/ELF64 LSB (relocatables (objects files, kernel modules, ar archives, etc), executables, shared objects) and discard ELF for others archs (for example AVR, ARM, SPARC) inside each package.

Thanks, I have added the [core] and [extra] packages to my wiki page. A TU probably wants to add this to the [community] TODO page (which needs a big update: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Community_todo) Allan
