[pacman-dev] gensync to create repo db with old-style-named packages
by Paul Mattal 23 May '07

23 May '07

Is it possible to use gensync or any other tool in pacman3 to generate a db from scratch from old-style-named packages? (without the -arch) I'm having a hard time succeeding at doing that at all. Is there some new tool that will let me generate a new repo db? - P

[pacman-dev] pacman source repository status?
by Andrew Fyfe 23 May '07

23 May '07

What's the status of the pacman source repository? At the moment I count 3 {,semi-}official repositories (in order of which is most up to date): - projects.archlinux.org/git/pacman.git - code.toofishes.net/gitprojects/pacman.git (does this pull from projects.archlinux.org?) - cvs.archlinux.org Is pacman development switch over too git? and which is the offical repository?

[pacman-dev] makepkg misses to export variables
by Andreas Radke 22 May '07

22 May '07

i wonder why you have removed all the "export" commands in front of the variables in /etc/makepkg.conf put an "export" or "env" on top of the build section and compare: FTPAGENT CARCH CHOST DISTCC_HOSTS PKGDEST PACKAGER all these are not set! and i have wondered why my builds take so long as i would have restrictive -j1 set. i hope not too much packages were built without the right CARCH/CHOST. some try to selfdetect it and would set it probably wrong! please fix it quickly.

[pacman-dev] CHOST in makepkg.conf
by Andrew Fyfe 21 May '07

21 May '07

Why do we have CHOST in makepkg.conf? As far as I can see this is completely unused and unneeded. Also PKGEXT=".pkg.tar.gz" needs changed to PKGEXT="pkg.tar.gz" (no dot at the beginning) Andrew

[pacman-dev] _alpm_list_add_first
by Nagy Gabor 16 May '07

16 May '07

Hi! In many cases we use alpm_list as a "stack", or we just use it as a set. In these cases an O(1) _alpm_list_add_first function would be more efficient (which add the new member as a first element) than the O(n) _alpm_list_add. Mostly in time "critical" parts (see my favorite sortbydeps function for example;-). Bye, ngaba

[pacman-dev] .la files are back?
by Essien Ita Essien 16 May '07

16 May '07

Just updated to pacman 3 and looking thru makepkg.conf, I see that the *default* in the OPTIONS() array is to leave libtool .la files in the package. Wasn't there much-ado-about-la-files sometime last year? Just checking, Essien
