Please see these packages, it contains a builded packages, binaries and some sources.
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=14252 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=20933 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=4011 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=17880 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=8064 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=199 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=5338 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=14866 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=199
...and there are many more.
I am preparing another list, but much more extensive. But first I have a question: in unsupported the packages.tar.gz may contain "tarballs" of the sources?, because I see that there are several that have this? (some are a mistake of the user that uploaded that and in array of source download of the homepage) In the AUR Guidelines there is no reference to this.

Hello, findwild was mine, I did a fresh upload, that fixed it. I deleted micq (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=7928) because last update was 2006 and the maintainer did not respond to the comments of several users (program was renamed to climm). For the other packages I left a comment. The AUR comment page looks strange. Where I expect the comment button, there is the word "poop". http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=20933 is okay, there are only small files uploaded. http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=14252 is okay, too. Thank you for notification. Regards Stefan

I was deleting some of the files. Have a look at the tarballs though. They're much bigger than your average set of build scripts. Where are you seeing 'poop'?

This is the best exchange on this list yet. If the button text changed, I imagine someone (wizzo?) was testing something

Oops, I probably should look up words I do not know before posting them. There may be little children reading this. :)

I was seeing it too, when I used the link from a notification email. I think it happens when the URL is malformed... the name of the commenter was appended to the URL after the package ID, and all comments on the page were gone leaving "poop" there.

And that is fixed in git now. Comments are displayed and poop is gone.
Bahahaha. I'm seriously cracking up, thanks. On Fri, Feb 20, 2009 at 6:03 PM, Loui Chang <louipc.ist@gmail.com> wrote:
