[aur-general] Dropping wvstreams/wvdial from [community]
wvstreams stopped building with gcc 4.7, upstream is dead for ~2 years now and gentoo's patches don't seem to fix stack magic checking properly. Current trunk (not pushed to the repos) gets me a different error than the one reported[1], but it still fails after pppd has been started:
wvdial: utils/wvtask.cc:304: static int WvTaskMan::yield(int): Assertion `*current_task->stack_magic == 0x123678' failed.
Unless someone adopts wvstreams and wvdial I'll drop them to AUR next week. [1]: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/31096 -- Florian Pritz

Didn't we just talk about adding wvdial to the install media? In fact... http://projects.archlinux.org/archiso.git/commit/?id=a76324ceb6795eb3 d

I've fixed the bug and pushed packages to community, but I will still drop it (maybe not as fast as I intended) unless someone takes over since I don't like maintaining dead software. -- Florian Pritz
