I imagine we could throw an install of the main site on the aur server for community packages. I hadn't thought that far ahead though. I was under the impression that community was going to remain on the AUR web page.

Its doable, but would probably need some template hacking to not have, like, the news and download pages on there. Unless you want the TUs to have their own news feeds and stuff?

Hmm, I don't know if that's necessary really.

I think it would be easy enough to add [community] to reporead on our main server, but we don't want to make it look like community is officially supported... on the other hand, community IS uncommented by default in pacman, so it would actually make sense to have it on the main page so users can see the list of packages they have available on a default install. We could have a note on all community packages that they aren't part of the official repos...

This sounds feasible. Giving TUs accounts on the main site would actually be easy, but we'd have to play with the permissions just a tad. If people think this is a good idea, Dusty and I will take this offlist to deal with the details.

I think it would be better to wait a few days to give time to finish off the rebuild. Although the downtime is short as you said, there is always the possibility of some complications. The cvs to svn switch also involve a learning curve for non-dev TU so it might slow down the rebuild. It will also give you more time to figure out how to deal with the website issue.

The problem with that is my time. I have time tonight, so I wanted to get it out of the way. If I wait, it might end up being weeks before I can get a block of time to do this again. Does anyone have an idea of the rebuilds that are left for community? How many and how long it will take? If I could get an estimate, maybe I could plan accordingly

I'm sorry that I was late on this (I've been much busier than usual lately). I was working on it right now after getting an email about it from Biru. I've attached the updated taurball (yeah, "taurball") with the patch posted on the bugtracker just in case it was missed. Sorry again. Xyne

OK, as far as I know, everything is complete. CVS is still there, but is useless. Please read this: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:HOWTO_Be_A_Packager I tested with some random package and am able to commit. I did not test the dbscripts, but those should be working... You will all need to "mkdir -p ~/staging/community/" on sigurd. A devtools release is needed, so communitypkg works the same as the rest. If someone would like to submit a patch to remove all the community specific stuff, and vary the hostname based on repo (archlinux.org / aur.archlinux.org), that'd be awesome. Or maybe Dan did this already....? For now you can just scp the package to aur.archlinux.org:staging/community and manually commit the files to svn. You will also need to run "archrelease community-i686" or "archrelease community-x86_64" before the dbscripts will allow you to add a new package. Tomorrow I will update devtools, and setup cleanup cron jobs to be run on that machine. I'll also sync svn to gerolde for the repo browser, if you guys want. Loui, do you need to do anything with the AUR now? Again: Please do not use CVS anymore. It will do nothing. I have killed the tupkg daemons so using CVS won't work anymore.

Yeah. Do we want it running on sigurd or gerolde? I'm not sure where abs gets the files from these days - is it the .abs.tar.gz tarballs?

abs gets the files from the /srv/abs/rsync directory by default. The tarballs are just a backup method to retrieve the ABS files from the mirrors when rsync is blocked. So the question is, do we run svn2abs on gerolde which requires a complete checkout of the SVN directory, or do we run it on sigurd and rsync the changes to gerolde to then be rsynced to the masses. The first option is easiest to implement, but will have more overhead by not doing the required SVN checkout locally. I'm not sure how large that overhead is. Allan

Yeah, that whole dir should be g+w. If it isn't, then we have issues. We used to have a cron job on gerolde that ensured permissions were correct, but I think we killed it off due to load. Just make sure you don't manually muck with files there (use the scripts) and if you do, ensure permissions are right

Another thing: Could you run the command to setup/update the svn Id tag for the whole community repo like you did for core/extra ? Another thing (2): I don't know if it would be possible because of the separate servers, but it would be usefull to have scripts to move community packages to core/extra and vice versa. BTW, I did a few updates and everything seems fine. Nice job. Eric

We might want to make a TODO list to not forget anything. I might jumping steps too. Another thing (3): Enable the community repo in the sourceballs script.

I was thinking more of a public TODO like a wiki page so we can see what has to be done and what has been done. But whatever suits you. Not sure how usefull/popular it would be : a commits ML for community.

Yeah I was debating that too. I sent the community cleanup output to arch-commits for now (rather than spam the aur-general or aur-dev lists) Adding Id tags to svn now I also enabled the permissions script to make sure everything is kosher in those dirs Playing with the dbscripts code a little right now

Adding Id tags to svn now

I got pwned by this one. My svn-fu is very weak, so I'm a bit stuck. I was updating a package right when you did this, so here's what I did (sorry for the Italian text, I hope it's self-explanatory): [bardo@forty-two trunk]$ svn commit Trasmetto trunk/ChangeLog Trasmetto trunk/PKGBUILD Trasmissione dati ..svn: Commit fallito (seguono dettagli): svn: File '/gcc-avr/trunk/PKGBUILD' is out of date svn: Il tuo messaggio di log è stato salvato in un file temporaneo: svn: '/home/bardo/tu/svn-packages/gcc-avr/svn-commit.tmp' [bardo@forty-two trunk]$ svn up GU PKGBUILD Aggiornato alla revisione 82. [bardo@forty-two trunk]$ svn commit -F ../svn-commit.tmp Trasmetto trunk/ChangeLog Trasmetto trunk/PKGBUILD Trasmissione dati .. Commit della Revisione 83 eseguito.

Once you have resolved conflicts, execute 'svn resolved <path to file>' to tell svn the error was resolved. Then to finish the merge commit, execute 'svn commit -F trunk/svnmerge-commit-message.txt' and, if there are no problems, delete trunk/svnmerge-commit-message.txt [bardo@forty-two trunk]$ ls ChangeLog PKGBUILD gcc-avr-4.4.0-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz svnmerge-commit-message.txt [bardo@forty-two trunk]$ And here's where I got stuck... how do I check svn statuses and conflicts?

It seems it was lying. No .mine files in the whole tree. I just had a 'svn up' in the root gcc-avr dir (*not* in trunk), checked nothing was changed, went back into trunk, ran 'svn commit' and finally ran 'archrelease community-x86_64', which yielded a "nothing to commit". I don't quite grok it, but it seems to be fine. Sorry for the noise. C.

Yeah the svn merge can be a little hairy. This most likely arose because I added Id keywords to all PKGBUILDs, not just those in trunk... As long as the PKGBUILD in repos/foo matches the package in the foo repo, you're good. If things ever get crazy, you can probably just svn rm the repo dir, commit, then re-archrelease On Jul 17, 2009 6:25 PM, "bardo" wrote: 2009/7/18 bardo :

Does anyone have an idea of the rebuilds that are left for community? How many and how long it will take? If I could get an estimate, maybe I could plan accordingly

i'm working on it now with ghost and i hope in maxim 2 hours all are done.

Just a status check. If no one says "stop" in the next 45 minutes or so, I'm going to do the transition

Alright, we're down to 2 packages that need a rebuild and I don't see us patching them quickly. Go ahead and run the transition.

OK, as far as I know, everything is complete. CVS is still there, but is useless.

Please read this: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:HOWTO_Be_A_Packager

I tested with some random package and am able to commit. I did not test the dbscripts, but those should be working...

You will all need to "mkdir -p ~/staging/community/" on sigurd.

A devtools release is needed, so communitypkg works the same as the rest. If someone would like to submit a patch to remove all the community specific stuff, and vary the hostname based on repo (archlinux.org / aur.archlinux.org), that'd be awesome. Or maybe Dan did this already....?

For now you can just scp the package to aur.archlinux.org:staging/community and manually commit the files to svn. You will also need to run "archrelease community-i686" or "archrelease community-x86_64" before the dbscripts will allow you to add a new package.

Tomorrow I will update devtools, and setup cleanup cron jobs to be run on that machine. I'll also sync svn to gerolde for the repo browser, if you guys want.

Loui, do you need to do anything with the AUR now?

Again: Please do not use CVS anymore. It will do nothing. I have killed the tupkg daemons so using CVS won't work anymore.

I have permission issues: error: failure while copying files to /srv/ftp/community/os/x86_64/ I guess we need to be added to the right group. Allan

Nothing critical. I will dummify community packages that are in the AUR. Maybe when we set up the web interface for community?
