[aur-requests] [PRQ#5166] Deletion Request for managingnews
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 25 Apr '16

25 Apr '16

jamesan [1] filed a deletion request for managingnews [2]: The upstream project has been abandoned; it's only release occurred 7 years ago, and it's project page was last editted 1.5 years ago to remove indication of ongoing dev work and a planning roadmap. Also, Drupal dropped support for version 6 half a year ago and all project releases for 6.x or older were flagged as hidden/unsupported. Even if the concept of ManagingNews is revived, it would likely be redesigned on the current Drupal release from scratch.

[aur-requests] Please rename the ZFS packages in AUR
by Jesus Alvarez 24 Apr '16

24 Apr '16

Can someone fulfill these requests please? I need the zfs-git and zfs-lts packages merged. Please merge: zfs-git -> zfs-linux zfs-utils-git -> zfs-utils-linux spl-git -> spl-linux spl-utils-git -> spl-utils-linux zfs-lts -> zfs-linux-lts zfs-utils-lts -> zfs-utils-linux-lts spl-lts -> spl-linux-lts spl-utils-lts -> spl-utils-linux-lts Reason: Previously, ZFSonLinux.org did not make timely releases, so when the linux package released a new major version (4.5 for example), the AUR zfs package could not be updated without including patches that support kernel 4.5. So I modified the packages to pull from git at the commit that supported the latest kernel so that people would not be stuck for weeks on the same kernel. This is no longer required as upstream has been making timely releases for more than a year now. The reason for including "linux" in the name is to indicate the package only supports the default "linux" packages. I keep getting requests to support all kernel packages, but this is not possible with out significantly complicating the PKGBUILD. I plan on adding support for popular kernels in AUR such as "linux-vfio" which would result in a new zfs package such as "zfs-linux-vfio" and "zfs-linux-vfio-git". See * https://github.com/archzfs/archzfs/issues/43 * https://github.com/archzfs/archzfs/issues/52 Thanks!
