[aur-general] orphaned packages in community
Hi all! I just took a look at the orphaned packages in community. I must say, they are quite a few (68, I added the full list at the end of this mail). If any of these belong to you and you did forget to adopt it after uploading, please do so now. If you did upload one of these and lost interest in it, please move it either to unsupported or post it in this thread so someone else can adopt it. In about a week time I will post the remaining list of orphaned packages at that time, so anyone interested (or needed as a dep) can adopt one of those. The rest I will move to unsupported a week or so after that. If you think the time schedule I mentioned is too short, please let me know so I can change it.

Opcion was mine, taken. I'm looking forward for the final list, 'cause there's a couple of things I'm interested in. Corrado

-Before moving a package to unsupported, make sure it is not a depends or makedepends of another community packages. Several packages in your list fall in this category.
Yes, I was planning to do so. Nothing will happen with these packages after 1 week adoption time for the uploader, 1 week adoption time for anyone else, after which I will create a list of things which cannot be removed because of makedepends and depends, and a list of removal candidates. Once I have published these lists I was planning to give another week to object on the removal candidates (and the other list) so the chance of mistakes is as small as possible.
-Keep gpsdrive in community. It's Damir's (a dev) package. He hasn't adopted it yet.

Okay, If no active TU wants to take those in the coming weeks I will see if the repo you mentioned is still active and of high quality and contact
Noted. I have put his name behind it on my own list so it will remain. I will contact him if he has not adopted it in a couple of weeks. the maintainer if so. Ronald

The full list of 68 orphaned packages in community: <...>
I have just orphaned all of xterminus's packages: so the list is now much longer ;) I repeat the question I asked before: is there a way to move a bunch of pkgs from community to unsupported other than the painstaking method described in the wiki [*]? I also repeat this request, since none of the following orphaned pkgs have been adopted yet:
perl-convert-asn1 is a dependency of perl-ldap (maintained by Sergej) perl-crypt-simple > checkgmail (dtw) perl-curses and perl-curses-ui > yfklog and yfktest (bfinch) perl-net-ipv6addr < gresolver (Sergej)
So Sergej, dtw and bfinch, I suggest that you adopt the above pkgs
[*] http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR_Trusted_User_Guidelines#Deleting_pac... Thanks, François
Just a reminder: You have about 2 more days to adopt orphaned packages in [community] that belong to you. After these two days they will end up on the list of packages which are free to be adopted by any TU. Best, Ronald

Found 2 my packages that somehow went orphaned. Also adopted a couple of others. Yay, >20 packages to update this week. :-) -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич)
Okay. The first period has ended now. 13 packages where adopted, 2 new packages appear on the list (I may have missed them last time, or they were orphaned last week). This means we now have 57 orphaned packages in community. Before giving the list of the remaining packages, I would like to ask if someone has any interest in maintaining all of the e17 packages ? If no one steps up we should discuss what we want to do with e17. For all other packages, they will appear on a 'to be moved to unsupported' list in about a week, so we can final check this list. Now the list as is (you may find a more acutal list on the AUR web interface as people are adopting).

I don't think there are TUs interested in e17... otherwise we would have heard from them. Did you try to contact the takhis repo maintainer? It looks like he's still updating the packages, and he's also AUR's maintainer (nickname: reverie).
Now the list as is (you may find a more acutal list on the AUR web interface as people are adopting).

Currently we are busy with a [community] repo cleanup (for details see the aur-general mailing list). >>Sadly e17 group is among the currently orphaned
It seems you are doing good work with your private e17 repo, people really
seem to enjoy using it. >>Had a quick glance over your CVS PKGBUILDs, and
I have just send reverie a mail. For future reference, as he may contact the aur-general mailing list directly, here is the relevant part: packages and until now no TU has stepped up to >>take maintainership over it. As such, we are currently looking for someone to maintain them. they seem to be in good shape (though license is >>an array).
Anyways, I have a couple of questions for you:
Are you willing to become a TU to maintain e17 in community ? Are you able to build both for i686 and x86_64, and if not are you willing to use aaron's x86_64 build >>machine if needed ? What is your point of view on what we should provide of e17 in community ? Stable snapshots, or cvs >>versions ?
Other questions come to mind at a later stadium. Of course you will have to go through the same >>procedure to become a TU as everyone else.
You may answer directly to me, or on the aur-general mailing list.

rage is part of e17. You might be planning to do that later on, but if you would seperate from the list the orphans that must remain in community because they are (make)depends of other packages and to list these packages (and their maintainers) that depends on orphans, you might speed up the adoption of these orphans, as logically, a maintainer should make sure that all his packages' dependencies are maintained by himself or another TU. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Yeah I was indeed waiting a couple of days to check that, hoping that some more packages would be adopted so it would be less work :p Anyway, I should have time to do it either tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. If anyone could step up to check the same for molok's packages I would be glad :) I will check all the orphaned packages, but I can make mistakes, so if you have time in the coming 10 or so days, please check that none of the orphans is a dependency of one of your packages in community.

I think the same applies to STiAT. Here is the updated list after checking dejari's and STiAT's community packages: freetype1: w3cam (sergej) libpq++: pgadmin3 (dsa) perl-io-stringy: perl-class-trigger (firmicus) perl-mail-box (sergej) perl-mime-tools (firmicus) shapelib: gen2shp (dtw) gpsmanshp (dtw) xastir (bfinch) shorewall-perl: shorewall (dtw) Alex
removed warzone, it was deprecated by warzone2100
First a question (it has already been asked twice, though i've not seen an answer), it may get lost if I put it at the end of the list.... Is it possible to move these packages to unsupported/remove them in another way as described in the wiki (you see it will take quite a while that way) ? Time for the updated list. I tried to categorize them a bit. First the packages which should remain in [community] because of dependencies. Please adopt them if your name is behind it: shapelib 1.2.10-3 (dtw (gen2shp&gpsmanshp), bfinch(xastir)) shorewall-perl 4.0.5-1 (dtw, shorewall) freetype1 1.3.1-4 (sergej, w3cam) adns 1.4-1 (snowman (will you adopt it?))
From Molok's packages, I though I've read somewhere on dev-public it will be moved to [extra] in time, though I can't find the message now. The packages I mean are (any1 willing to adopt them?): smplayer 0.5.62-1 smplayer-themes 0.1.14-1

First a question (it has already been asked twice, though i've not seen an answer), it may get lost if I put it at the end of the list....
Is it possible to move these packages to unsupported/remove them in another way as described in the wiki (you see it will take quite a while that way) ?
Time for the updated list. I tried to categorize them a bit.
First the packages which should remain in [community] because of dependencies. Please adopt them if your name is behind it: shapelib 1.2.10-3 (dtw (gen2shp&gpsmanshp), bfinch(xastir)) shorewall-perl 4.0.5-1 (dtw, shorewall) freetype1 1.3.1-4 (sergej, w3cam) adns 1.4-1 (snowman (will you adopt it?))
No. Whoever's has a package that depends on it should adopt it. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
I'll adopt lxpanel, lxsession and ddclient. -- Abhishek Dasgupta

Okay, now nesl247 has officially resigned as a TU, his packages are added to the list. These packages are no dependencies of other [community] packages (only the last three in the short list depend on each other). Please adopt if you would like to maintain one of these packages: gtvg 0.3-1 screenlets 0.0.10-3 pycups 1.9.28-1 hal-cups-utils 0.6.13-1 system-config-printer 0.7.76-2 note: screenlets has 54 votes, depends on a number of gnome stuff via gnome-python-desktop, so it would be great if someone with a bunch of gnome stuff could adopt it).

I guess that's me. But I'm in process of updating my packages via slooow internet connection (>20 left), so I'm not sure if it's correct for me to adopt yet another package.

It is really you who needs to decide that. If you are sure you (and your connection) can handle the extra workload, please adopt it. If you have any doubts about that somebody else should step up. It is your call, just let us know what you decide. I'm happy with either decision if you think it is the right one.

I've adopted these popular orphans: netwmpager soundkonverter kftpgrabber IMO, at 50+ votes, screenlets should stay in community. Roman: Unless someone else is interested, adopt it. If you are limited on time/bandwith, I could help with the updates.

I see awesome (the window manager) is now also listed as an orphan. Vegai, as you are listed in the maintainer tag of the PKGBUILD, did you do this by accident or do you want somebody else to adopt it ?

I want somebody else to adopt it. I was just about to announce this.
To anyone who adopts it: Note that the current PKGBUILD doesn't work with the current upstream version, because they changed from the dwm configuration style to autotools. --vk

okay :) adopted
Yesterday I moved all packages from the orphan list, including all packages in [community] owned by stiat, dejari and zeus to unsupported. Molok's packages have been moved to unsupported a few days ago by someone else. So, if not done yet, the CVS accounts of stiat, dejari, zeus, and molok can be removed. Remains the few packages that need to be adopted in [community]. Please do so, I've already been asking this a couple of times. These packages are: adns 1.4-1 (swiergot (liboop) OR sergej)) freetype1 1.3.1-4 (sergej (w3cam)) helixplayer (snowman said he will either update it or move to unsupported) libpq++ (dsa (pgadmin3)) python-pysvn (dsa, you just uploaded it, just a notice you still need to adopt it) shapelib 1.2.10-3 (dtw (gen2shp&gpsmanshp), bfinch(xastir)) shorewall-perl 4.0.5-1 (dtw (shorewall))

adns 1.4-1 (swiergot (liboop) OR sergej))
