[aur-requests] orphan request: geeqie-git
by Steven Honeyman 28 Jun '14

28 Jun '14

I've tried several times to contact this package maintainer of geeqie-git[1], but with no response. It has not been updated since 2012. It's been longer than the required 14 days, so could someone please orphan it so that I can adopt and update? Thanks, Steven. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/geeqie-git

[aur-requests] Removal request: stxxl and stxxl-svn.
by Karol Blazewicz 28 Jun '14

[1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libstxxl/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/stxxl/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/stxxl-svn/ The latter two are orphaned, none has any votes. stxxl seems to be using git and not svn anymore http://stxxl.sourceforge.net/ -> https://github.com/stxxl/stxxl [2] has been submitted by the same person as [1], so I guess he decided to change the name. Their PKGBUILDs differ a bit though. Can we keep [1] and remove [2] and [3]?

[aur-requests] Please delete mt package
by Stefan Husmann 27 Jun '14

Hello new list, please delete mt [1]. It is superseeded by svte, where a -hg package by the upstream author lives in AUR [2]. The PKGBUILD of mt does not work anyway. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mt/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/svte-hg/ Best Regards Stefan

[aur-requests] Disownment request: shutter
by Caleb Maclennan 27 Jun '14

27 Jun '14

The shutter package in AUR has been the source of some consternation recently: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/shutter/?comments=all Besides having been out of date for some time, there are several changes that need to be made for it to work right with Arch's current perl version. This has been complained about for some time and the current maintainer has been unresponsive. I offered to take over if they did not want to maintain it on 6-13 and again last week. So far there has been no response. Can this package be disowned so I or somebody else can adopt and fix it? Caleb

[aur-requests] orphan request: vim-colors-solarized-git
by Mario Finelli 26 Jun '14

The vim-colors-solarized-git ( https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vim-colors-solarized-git/) package is not really out of date, but it has a version number 20131007 hardcoded in, but also has a pkgver function that changes that date when makepkg is called, but this date is from 2011 when the last commit to the git repository was made. This causes the package to appear out of date to aur helpers and other packages that check for updates of aur packages. I have emailed the maintainer two weeks ago (12 June) asking them to fix this (it only requires a simple update to the pkgver) but I haven't received a response so I'm asking for the package to be orphaned. Thanks
